Summary of the industry in which our Company operates The domestic steel industry demand logged a CAGR of 8.7% between fiscals 2020 and 2025, reaching 152 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) in fiscal 2025 from 100.2 MTPA in fiscal 2020. The spurt in demand is attributable to the aggregate effect of growth in the automobile, infrastructure and construction sectors during the period. Demand for long and flat steel is estimated to have increased at a similar CAGR of 8-9% between fiscals 2020 and 2025. While demand growth for flat steel was supported by the automobile and construction segments, that for long steel was fuelled by the infrastructure development sector. Demand for domestic steel is expected to log a CAGR of 7.5-8.5% over fiscals 2025-30, reaching 210-230 MT, led by healthy growth prospects in the building and construction, infrastructure, and automobile sectors, boosted by government’s National Steel Policy, 2017.

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS 1. Our existing Manufacturing Unit and the sources of our raw materials are situated in the States Chhattisgarh and Odisha and any adverse developments affecting these regions could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial conditions. As of the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, we own and operate our Manufacturing Unit at Chhattisgarh and we procure our raw materials such as iron ore and non-coking coal (bituminous) Chhattisgarh and Odisha, manganese ore from Maharashtra, dolomite from Chhattisgarh. Further our Solar Power Project is also being set- up at Chhattisgarh. This concentration of our business in these States, subjects us to various risks, including but not limited to the following risks: • regional natural disasters; • vulnerability to change of policies, laws and regulations or the political and economic environment of these States; 36• constraints on our ability to diversify across states; • perception by our potential clients, that we are a regional steel manufacturing company, which hampers us from competing against other large steel manufacturing companies at a national level. Further, our success depends on our ability to successfully manufacture and deliver our products to meet our customer demand. Our Manufacturing Unit is susceptible to damage or interruption or operating risks, such as power loss, loss of services of our external contractors, terrorist attacks, acts of war, break-ins, earthquakes, other natural disasters and industrial accidents and similar events. Further, any materially adverse social, political or economic development, natural calamities, civil disruptions, or changes in the policies of the state government or state or local governments in this region could adversely affect our manufacturing operations, and require a modification of our business strategy, or require us to incur significant capital expenditure or suspend our operations. There is no assurance that such disruption in business operations would not bring any hindrance in the functioning of our Manufacturing Unit or the Solar Power Project. Consequently, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition have been and will continue to be heavily dependent on the performance of, and the prevailing conditions affecting the steel industry in Chhattisgarh and end user industry in geographically contiguous states. 2. 100% of our revenue is from sale of our steel products such as Sponge Iron, MS Billets, TMT Bars & others related items. Volatility in the demand and pricing in the iron and steel industry is common and is cyclical in nature. A decrease in steel prices may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, prospects and financial condition. Steel prices fluctuate based on a number of factors, such as, the availability and cost of raw material inputs, fluctuations in domestic and international demand and supply of steel and steel products, international production and capacity, fluctuation in the volume of steel imports, transportation costs, protective trade measures and various social and political factors, in the economies in which the steel producers sell their products and are sensitive to the trends of particular industries, such as, the construction and machinery industries. When downturns occur in these economies or sectors, we may experience decreased demand for our products, which may lead to a decrease in steel prices, which may, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. The quantity of products sold by the Company and their average price in the last three Fiscals is as set-out below: Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Particulars Quantity Quantity Quantity Avg price Avg price Avg price (mt) (mt) (mt) Sponge Iron 30,415.63 27,429.31 12,279.85 29,648.93 18,263.08 32,301.16 MS Billets 88,189.05 40,256.76 92,866.51 41,231.45 67,832.80 47,215.30 TMT Bars 68,583.16 43,911.56 5,578.34 43,515.38 0.00 0.00 Ferro Alloys 5,152.20 55,170.17 10,810.28 54,005.28 14,316.13 63,456.81 The changing prices in the steel industry may affect the ability of the Company to maintain consistent profitability and business growth, especially during periods of economic downturn. In addition, substantial decreases in steel prices during periods of economic weakness have not always been balanced by commensurate price increases during periods of economic strength. Any sustained price recovery will most likely require a broad economic recovery, in order to underpin an increase in real demand for steel products by end users. Further, steel production requires substantial amounts of raw materials and energy, including iron ore, iron ore fines, non-coking coal and coke, scrap and power, which are subject to significant price volatility. The production of steel is capital intensive, with a high proportion of fixed costs to total costs. Steel is a capital-intensive industry, which requires funding the expansion through borrowings; India has higher cost of finance as compared to other countries such as China, Japan, and Korea (Source: CRISIL Report). Consequently, steel producers generally seek to maintain high capacity utilization. If capacity exceeds demand, there is a tendency for prices to fall sharply if supply is largely maintained. Conversely, expansion of capacity requires long lead times so that, if demand grows strongly, prices increase rapidly, as unutilized capacity cannot be brought on line as quickly. The result can be substantial price volatility. 37We may be negatively affected by significant price volatility, particularly in the event of excess production capacity in the global steel market, and incur operating losses as a result. 3. There is an income tax related litigation pending against our Company, our Promoter Group member namely Kunj Behari Singhal and our Group Company namely Supreme Road Transport Private Limited pursuant to the order of the Settlement Commission passed on January 21, 2021 as also certain appeals have been filed by our Company challenging certain demands raised by the Income-tax authorities in connection with search and seizure operations carried out by the Income-tax authorities at the Registered Office of the Company and other locations during August 2017 and December 2021, respectively. Any adverse outcome in such litigations could increase our tax liability and financial condition. There was a search and seizure that was conducted on our Company, some of our Promoters namely Ravi Singhal and Sandeep Agrawal, certain members of our Promoter Group including Kunj Behari Singhal, Arun Singhal, our erstwhile Directors Vinay Agrawal, Sanjay Goyal, Sandeep Singhal, Vikas Agrawal and one of our Group Company namely Supreme Road Transport Private Limited during August 2017, pursuant to which an application was filed by our Company, Kunj Behari Singhal and one of our Group Companies namely Supreme Road Transport Private Limited ("Applicants”) before the Settlement Commission, Kolkata (“the Settlement Commission”) for the settlement of their income tax matters regarding non-disclosure of additional income for the AY 2012-13 to AY 2018-19 for our Company, Group Company and Promoter group member. An Order dated January 21, 2021 was subsequently passed by the Settlement Commission (“the Settlement Order”), wherein the total income was determined and based on which the tax liabilities were ascertained and paid by our Company, Group Company and Promoter group member. The Settlement Order has been challenged by the Income tax department before the High Court of Chhattisgarh in Writ Petition No. (T) No.235 of 2021 and which is currently pending. The Applicants have paid the requisite amounts towards tax liabilities as determined and payable by them pursuant to the Settlement Order. For further details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” beginning on page 379. Any adverse orders or determinations that may passed in the said Writ Petition against our Company will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Thereafter, the Company filed Company Petition No.1/CB/2024 under Section 66 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“Petition”), before the National Company Law Tribunal, Cuttack Bench (“NCLT Cuttack”), seeking reduction of the share capital of the Company with reference to the shareholdings of 22,750,840 equity shares of Rs.10/- aggregating to nominal value of 227,508,400 together with security premium amounting to Rs. 1,085,340,520/- received thereon at the time of allotment of shares to some of the non-promoter corporate entities. The NCLT Cuttack noted the order of the Settlement Commission. NCLT Cuttack also noted that the Company had first transferred those shares in the name of the one of the Promoter Group members namely, namely, Kunj Bihari Singhal and one of the Promoter Selling Shareholders namely Ravi Singhal and that through the above Petition the Company is seeking to extinguish those shares by passing accounting entry through journal, whereby the share capital to the extent of Rs.227,508,400/- in the name of Kunj Bihari Singhal and Ravi Singhal together with premium, which was shown to have been received from the “Kolkata Base Companies” has been debited to the account of share capital reduction account. Our Company undertook a capital reduction exercise in accordance of the Order dated December 12, 2024 passed by the NCLT Cuttack. Pursuant to the capital reduction exercise, the Equity Shares of Ravi Singhal were reduced from 36,549,465 Equity Shares to 20,850,240 Equity Shares and the 7,051,615 equity shares held by Kunj Behari Singhal were reduced to Nil. Further, another search and seizure operations were conducted by the Income-tax Department in December 2021 on our Company, some of our Promoters namely Ravi Singhal and Sandeep Agrawal, certain members of our Promoter Group and erstwhile directors including Arun Singhal, our erstwhile Directors namely Sanjay Goyal, Vinay Agrawal, Sandeep Singhal and Vikas Agrawal pursuant to which assessment orders were passed and demands were raised on our Company in respect of Assessment Years 2017-18 to 2022-2023. Our Company has challenged those demands before the appellate authorities by filing separate appeals. For further details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” beginning on page 379. Any adverse orders or determinations in such appeals may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and cash flows and results of operations. 4. We have had experienced negative cash flows from operating, investing and financing in the recent past, and we may have negative cash flows in the future. Our net cash flow for the period / years are set forth in the table below. The following table sets forth net cash inflow/(outflow) from operating, investing and financing activities for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023: (₹ in million) Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Net cash flow from operating activities 48.42 519.27 467.81 38Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Net cash flow from/(outflow) investing activities (660.86) (884.35) (206.02) Net cash flow from/(outflow) financing activities 717.69 380.16 (271.65) Net increase/(decrease) in cash and cash 105.25 15.08 (9.86) Equivalents We cannot assure you that our net cash flows will be positive in the future. If our Company is not able to generate sufficient cash flows, our Company may not be able to generate sufficient amounts of cash flow to finance our projects, make new capital expenditure, make new investments or fund other liquidity needs which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. For further details, see “Summary of selected financial information derived from our Restated Consolidated Financial Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition — Restated Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows” beginning on pages 26 and 360 of this DRHP, respectively. 5. Capital expenditure to the tune of ₹ 900.00 million required towards part financing the Keshdabri Solar Power Plant and the Mopka Solar Power Plant would be funded out of the Net Proceeds of the Offer. Any shortfall in raising / meeting the same could adversely affect our growth plans, operations and financial performance. The capital expenditure for the Keshdabri Solar Power Plant and the Mopka Solar Power Plant is partly being funded from the Offer Proceeds and from secured loans being availed from our lenders. As on date of this DRHP, we have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements to the extent of Offer Proceeds to be deployed for the objects of the Offer and Hence, any failure or delay on our part to raise money from this Issue or any shortfall in the Gross Proceeds may delay the implementation schedule and could adversely affect our growth plans. For further details please refer to the chapter titled “Objects of the Offer” beginning on page 134 of this DRHP. 6. Total capital expenditure for the Keshdabri Solar Power Plant and the Mopka Solar Power Plant is ₹ 1,546.00 million and we have incurred ₹ 180.00 million till September 28, 2025. Any delay or inability of the contractor engaged by us to execute the Solar Power Project in a timely manner, or at all and/or at the estimated costs as per the TEV Report, may result in time and cost over-runs. We intend to utilize substantial part of the Net Proceeds for funding capital expenditure requirements to set up the Keshdabri Solar Power Plant and the Mopka Solar Power Plant. The utilisation of the Gross Proceeds will be monitored by the Monitoring Agency. We have engaged Baritech Infra Private Limited to execute the Solar Power Project under the Engineering Procurement and Construction Contract dated June 19, 2025 for amount of ₹ 176.39 million. The cost of setting-up the Solar Power Project is based on the TEV Report prepared by MPCON. .Out of total capital expenditure (including preoperative expenses) ₹ 1,546.00 million to be incurred on the Keshdabri Solar Power Plant and the Mopka Solar Power Plant, we have incurred ₹ 44.70 million till August 31, 2025 out of internal accruals and we are yet to make payment for the balance capital expenditure ₹ 1,278.30 million. For details, see, “Part financing cost of setting up Phase 2 and Phase 3 of Solar Power Plant with 19 MWp and 22 MWp capacity respectively” the chapter “Objects of the Offer” on page 134 of this DRHP. We cannot assure that we will be able to undertake such capital expenditure at the costs estimated by the TEV Report or that there will not be cost escalations over and above the contingencies proposed to be funded out of the Net Proceeds. Further, the actual amount and timing of our future capital requirements may differ from our estimates as a result of, among other things, unforeseen delays or cost overruns, unanticipated expenses, regulatory changes, engineering design changes and technological changes. Any delay or inability of the contractor engaged by us to execute the Solar Power Project in a timely manner, or at all and/or at the estimated costs as per the TEV Report, may result in time and cost over-runs including an increase in capital expenditure, extension or variation in the proposed schedule of implementation and deployment of the Net Proceeds, thereby resulting in an adverse effect on our business, prospects and results of operations. 7. We are exposed to risks associated with time and cost overruns, delays or under-estimations of our costs of construction, which may affect the economic viability of our Solar Power Project. If we are unable to successfully implement our Solar Power Project, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. We currently operate two Captive Power Plants in Chhattisgarh. In order to reduce power expenses and improve energy efficiency, we are in the process of establishing 50 MWp DC/35.7 MWAC Solar Power Project. The electricity generated by the Solar Power Project will be supplied into the local government’s grid. In return, the local government will credit the generated power towards the electricity consumption of our Manufacturing Unit. This arrangement will help to reduce the overall electricity costs for the Manufacturing Unit, as the energy produced by the Solar Power Project will be used to offset the Manufacturing Unit’s electricity bill. This is expected to not only result in cost savings but also improve energy efficiency and sustainability in our operations. 39The Solar Power Project, would involve risks, including risks associated with the timely completion, and our failure to adequately manage these risks notwithstanding our upgraded operational and financial systems, procedures and controls could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Factors that could affect our ability to complete the Solar Power Project on time or at all, include completing the construction, receiving the machineries of desired quality and on scheduled time, obtaining or renewing required regulatory approvals and licenses, a decline in demand for our products and general economic conditions. Our future growth depends on our ability to significantly increase both our manufacturing capacity and production throughout in a cost-effective and efficient manner. Our ability to expand production capacity through the expansion project is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the following: • diversion of significant management attention and other resources; • failure to execute our expansion plans effectively; and • failure to complete the Solar Power Project within our estimated budget, failure of our contractors and suppliers to adhere to our specifications and timelines Construction of the Solar Power Project may be adversely affected by circumstances outside our control, including inclement weather, adverse geological and environmental conditions, failures to receive regulatory approvals on schedule or third party delays in providing supplies and other materials. Changes in project plans or designs, or defective or delayed execution, may increase our costs from our initial estimates. If we are unable to implement the Solar Power Project within our estimated time frame, we may be unable to control operating costs, particularly power costs, maintain our competitive position, or sustain profitability. Further, since the Solar Power Project is partly funded through bank loans, then despite the Solar Power Project being unsuccessful, we will be obligated to repay the loans and interest thereon. There can be no assurance that we will complete Solar Power Project in a timely manner or whether it will result in savings in power costs as has been contemplated by our management. In the event that the risks and uncertainties discussed above or any other unanticipated risks, uncertainties, contingencies or other events or circumstances limit or delay our efforts to use the Net Proceeds to achieve the planned objects, the use of the Net Proceeds for purposes identified by our management may not result in benefits to our business, increased profitability or an increase in the value of your investment in our Equity Shares. In addition, our Solar Power Project has not been appraised by any independent or third-party agency, and accordingly, in the absence of such independent appraisal, our expansion plans may be subject to change based on various factors which are beyond our control. However, the estimated cost of the Solar Power Project has been disclosed in this DRHP in accordance with the TEV Report. For the Solar Power Project, we have obtained some required regulatory approvals while some of them are yet to be obtained. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the other required registrations/permissions or approvals in a timely manner or at all. Further, in the event of any unanticipated delay in utilisation or receipt of such approvals, the proposed schedule of implementation and deployment of the Net Proceeds may be extended or may vary accordingly. The occurrence of any of the events discussed above could results in us failing to implement the Solar Power Project in a timely manner and may adversely affect our business and results of operations. 8. We are dependent on a few customers for a major part of our revenues. Further we do not enter into long-term arrangements with our customers and any failure to continue our existing arrangements could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Our sales are concentrated to a few customers with our top 10 customers contributing 31.76%, 37.70% and 39.87%, respectively, of our revenue from operations during Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively. We have entered into a contract manufacturing arrangement with one of our customers for manufacturing TMT rebars on job work basis. We presently do not have any long-term or exclusive arrangements with any of our customers and we cannot assure you that we will be able to sell the quantities we have historically supplied to such customers. In the event our competitors’ products offer better margins to such customers or otherwise incentivize them, there can be no assurance that our customers will continue to place orders with us. Most of our transactions with our customers are typically on a purchase order basis without any commitment for a fixed volume of business. 40There can also be no assurance that our customers will place their orders with us on current or similar terms, or at all. Further, our customers could change their business practices or seek to modify the terms that we have customarily followed with them, including in relation to their payment terms. While we negotiate product prices and payment terms with our customers, in the event our customers alter their requirements, it could have a material adverse effect on our business growth and prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, our customers may also cancel purchase orders at short notice or without notice, which could have an impact on our inventory management. In the event of frequent cancellations of purchase orders, the same could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Although our Company maintains long-term relationship with our major customers, there can be no assurance that we will continue to maintain such relationship with our customers in the future. Further, in the event our customers experience any delays in delivery of our products, or if they prefer to buy the products of our competitors, it could have a material adverse effect on our business growth and prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our inability to maintain our existing customer network could have a negative impact on our sales, business growth prospects, result in slowdown of operation, financial conditions and cash flows. 9. Disruption of our relationships with our dealers and distributors, changes in their business practices, their failure to meet payment schedules and provide timely and accurate information, conflicts among our channels of distribution or our inability to further expand our distribution network could adversely affect our business, cash flows and results of operations. We have an extensive sales network, comprising of dealers and distributors in order to increase our market penetration. Although we have not entered into long-term agreements with such dealers and distributors, we believe that our relationship with these parties has consolidated over a period of time and that the commercial terms and conditions offered by us and agreed to by them are favourable for a continued business relationship. However, there can be no assurance that such commercial relationship shall continue in the future at commercially viable terms or at all. Our competitors may offer our dealers and distributors more favourable terms or may have more products available to meet their needs or utilize the leverage of broader product lines to be sold through them and consequently these entities may decline to distribute our products. The relevant purchase orders with these parties may be amended or cancelled at any time, and should such an amendment or cancellation take place, it may adversely impact our production schedules and inventories. Further, due to the lack of long-term agreements, these entities are not contractually bound to provide us with a specific volume of business. Further, our dealers and distributors could change their business practices, such as inventory levels, or seek to modify their payment terms and other terms of procurement. We may face the pressure to modify our trading terms if our dealers and distributors are unable or unwilling to continue engaging with us on presently agreed commercial terms. In order to expand the sales volume of our products, it is essential that we continue to expand the density as well as the geographic reach of our existing distribution network and ensure that our products reach every market segment and customer base. If we are unable to continue to expand our relationships with such entities, our business may suffer. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully maintain or strengthen our relationship with such entities, and any failure to do so may adversely affect our business, cash flows and results in operations. 10. Inadequate or interrupted supply and price fluctuation of our raw materials could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows, profitability and financial condition. Manufacturing quantity and cost of our products are dependent on our ability to source raw materials at acceptable prices and maintain a stable and sufficient supply of our major raw materials. The principal raw materials used in our manufacturing process are iron ore, iron ore pellets, non-coking coal (bituminous) and dolomite etc. We fulfil our raw materials requirement from domestic markets. Except for procurement of coal, we have not entered into any long-term agreements with any of our raw material or inputs suppliers and we purchase such raw materials and inputs such as iron ore, silico manganese and dolomite on spot order basis. We procure coal vide the fuel supply agreements with South Eastern Coalfields Limited and Mahanadi Coalfields Limited which accounted for 40.80% and 5.43% respectively of our total coal purchases in Fiscal 2025. Iron ore procured for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 was ₹ 1,213.94 million, ₹ 1,321.55 million and ₹1,171.63 million, representing 20.44%, 30.63% and 30.58% respectively of total raw material purchases. Except with and South Eastern Coalfields Limited and Mahanadi Coalfields Limited, we have not entered into long term contracts for the supply of such raw materials. While we may find additional suppliers to supply these raw materials, any failure of our suppliers to deliver these raw materials in the necessary quantities or to adhere to delivery schedules, credit terms or specified quality standards and technical specifications may adversely affect our production processes and our ability to deliver orders on time and at the desired level of quality. As a result, we may lose customers which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 41Accordingly, we may encounter situations where we might be unable to manufacture and deliver our products due to, amongst other reasons, our inability to procure raw materials for our products. As a result, the success of our business is significantly dependent on maintaining good relationships with our raw material suppliers. Although we have not faced significant disruptions in the procurement of raw materials in the past, there can be no assurance that we will procure the quantities and quality of raw materials commensurate with our requirements in the future. Further, any delay/failure to deliver or delivery of wrong or sub-standard raw materials by our suppliers may have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The costs of raw materials consumed for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 is as set-out below: (₹ in million) Particulars As on March 31, 2025 As on March 31, 2024 As on March 31, 2023 Costs of raw materials 5,028.08 4,389.46 4,373.47 consumed as % of total Revenue from 53.38% 79.85% 79.28% operation The raw materials we use are subject to price volatility and unavailability. Absence of long-term supply contracts subject us to risks such as price volatility caused by various factors such as commodity market fluctuations, currency fluctuations, climatic and environmental conditions, production and transportation cost, changes in domestic government policies, and regulatory and trade sanctions. Additionally, our inability to predict the market conditions may result in us placing supply orders for inadequate quantities of such raw materials. Purchases made from our top 10 (ten) suppliers for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 is as set-out below: (₹ in million) Particulars As on March 31, 2025 As on March 31, 2024 As on March 31, 2023 Raw material purchases 3,467.49 1704.69 1,871.84 from top 10 suppliers as % of total raw material 56.58% 37.75% 47.38% Purchases In Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, our top 3 (three) suppliers accounted for 34.11%, 13.55% and 18.14% respectively, of our total purchase costs. If any of our major suppliers cease to have business dealings with us or materially reduces the quantity of raw materials supplied to us and we are unable to secure new suppliers for such raw materials to meet the requirements at our manufacturing plants, our production schedule may be delayed and our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects will be adversely affected. Further our raw material supply and pricing may become volatile due to a number of factors beyond our control, including global demand and supply, general economic and political conditions, transportation and labour costs, labour unrest, natural disasters, competition and there are inherent uncertainties in estimating such variables, regardless of the methodologies and assumptions that we may use. Therefore, we cannot assure that we will be able to procure adequate supplies of raw materials in the future, as and when we need them on commercially acceptable terms. Further, there can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively manage relationships with our existing or new suppliers or that we will be able to enter into arrangements with new suppliers at attractive terms or at all. If we fail to successfully leverage our existing and new relationships with suppliers, our business and financial performance could be adversely affected. We generally pass on the cost escalations to our customers. However, we may not be able to pass on every instance of escalation in input costs and may have to pursue internal cost control measures or may have to absorb in some instances such as when the rate of our raw materials such as iron ore, coal, iron ore pellet, dolomite etc increases. Whenever the price of the material cost increases, we subsequently increase our sale price and whenever the raw material cost reduces, we subsequently reduce our sale price. If we are not able to effectively pass on our escalated costs to customers, such price escalations could have a material adverse impact on our result of operations, financial condition and cash flows. 11. We are predominantly dependent on the sale of our steel products. An inability to anticipate and adapt to evolving customer preferences and demand for particular product, or ensure product quality or reduction in the demand of our steel products may adversely impact demand for our products, brand loyalty and consequently our business prospects and financial performance. 42Our business prospects are dependent on the demand for our products amongst our existing customers and new customers. In addition, our financial performance is dependent on the sale of our steel products such as TMT Bars, MS Billets and Sponge Iron. The following table provides certain information in relation to the revenue obtained from our products for the periods indicated: (₹ in million) Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Particulars Revenue % Revenue % Revenue % Sponge 834.28 10.18 364.08 6.87 589.92 10.66 Iron MS Billets 3,550.21 43.34 3,829.02 72.29 3,202.75 57.85 TMT Bars 3,011.59 36.76 242.74 4.58 0 0 Ferro 294.76 3.60 498.83 9.42 926.07 16.73 Alloys Others 501.56 6.12 362.21 6.84 817.57 14.77 Total 8,192.40 100.00 5,296.88 100.00 5,536.31 100.00 As a result, our business and financial condition is dependent on the performance of the steel market in India and we are exposed to fluctuations in the performance of these markets. In the event of a decrease in demand for steel in India, we will experience pronounced effects on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and prospects. The steel market may be affected by, among others, changes in government policies, government initiatives, economic conditions, income levels and interest rates, which may negatively affect the demand for and the valuation of our products. These and other factors may negatively contribute to changes in the prices of and demand for our steel products and may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our failure to effectively react to steel market situations or to successfully introduce new products or services in these markets could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. Any factor which affects the demand for our products would lead us to change our manufacturing as well as marketing strategies and set ups and could entail additional cost outlay and losses. 12. Operations in our steel manufacturing business carry inherent risks of damage to the environment. This could subject us to significant disruptions in business, legal and regulatory actions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Further, failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations by us could lead to unforeseen environmental litigation which could impact our business and our future net earnings. We are subject to various national, state, municipal and local laws and regulations concerning environmental protection in India, including laws addressing the discharge of pollutants into the air and water, the management and disposal of any hazardous substances, and wastes and the clean-up of contaminated sites. Environmental laws and regulations in India are becoming more stringent, and the scope and extent of new environmental regulations, including their effect on our operations, cannot be predicted with any certainty. Use of coal in manufacturing plants generates a considerable amount of ash and greenhouse gases, which are major contributors to environmental pollution, global warming, greenhouse effects and potentially, climate change. There are limited options for utilizing ash, such as cement making utilities, reclamation of low-lying land, construction of roads and embankments and filling abandoned mines or for any other construction activity and therefore the demand for ash can vary significantly over time. Any violation of the environmental laws and regulations may result in fines, penalties, imprisonments, criminal sanctions, revocation of operating permits, or shutdown of our manufacturing plant which may result in increased costs and accordingly impact our financial condition. A penalty of ₹25,000 was imposed by the Chattisgarh Environment Conservation Board vide letter dated May 18, 2023, on our Company for emission of fugitive dust. We cannot assure you that such actions will not be taken by the regulatory authorities on our Company in the future, which may have an adverse impact on our business operations and financial conditions. In case of any change in environmental or pollution regulations, we may be required to invest in, among other things, environmental monitoring, pollution control equipment, and emissions management. As a consequence of unanticipated regulatory or other developments, future environmental and regulatory related expenditures may vary substantially from those currently anticipated. We cannot assure you that our costs of complying with current and 43future environmental laws and other regulations will not adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. As a consequence of unanticipated regulatory or other developments, future environmental and regulatory related expenditures may vary substantially from those currently anticipated. While we have not faced any regulatory actions for non-compliance of environmental laws, we cannot assure you that in future our costs of complying with current and future environmental laws and other regulations will not adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. In addition, we could incur substantial costs, our products could be restricted from entering certain markets, and we could face other sanctions, if we were to violate or become liable under environmental laws or if our products become non-compliant with applicable regulations. Our potential exposure includes fines and civil or criminal sanctions, third-party property damage or personal injury claims and clean-up costs. The amount and timing of costs under environmental laws are difficult to predict. For further information, see “Key Regulations and Policies in India” on page 246. 13. The demand and pricing of steel products like Billets and TMT Bars are volatile and sensitive to cyclical nature of the industries it serves. The fluctuations in steel prices may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, prospects and financial conditions. Steel prices fluctuate based on a number of factors, such as the availability and cost of raw material inputs, climatic changes, fluctuations in domestic and international demand and supply of steel and steel products, worldwide production and capacity, transportation costs and protective trade measures, in the economies in which the steel producers sell their products and are sensitive to the trends of particular industries, such as the construction, infrastructure development and transportation, which are among the biggest consumers of steel products. When downturns occur in these economies or sectors, it may lead to a decrease in steel and steel product prices. We also face low demand during the monsoon season due to decreased construction activities. While steel prices have increased in recent years, they have been subject to fluctuation. Low steel prices adversely affect the businesses and results of operations of steel producers generally, including ours, resulting in lower revenue and margins. In addition, the volatility, length and nature of business cycles affecting the steel industry have become increasingly unpredictable, and the recurrence of another major downturn in the industry may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. In addition, the volatility, length and nature of business cycles affecting the steel and steel products industry may become increasingly unpredictable, and the recurrence of another major downturn in the industry may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. 14. We face substantial competition from domestic steel producers, which may affect our prospects. Developments in the competitive environment in the steel industry, such as consolidation among our competitors, could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position and hence our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. The Indian steel industry is highly competitive. Our primary competitors include Godawari Power & Ispat Ltd, Sarda Energy & Minerals Ltd, Gallant Ispat Ltd and Prakash Industries Ltd . The table below shows consolidated financial metrics of peer companies for Fiscal 2025: Revenue PAT (Rs.in EBITDA PAT Name (Rs.in ROCE (%) EBITDA million ) Margin Margin million ) Sky Alloys and Power Limited (Issuer Company) 8,192.40 530.46 19.01% 1,103.08 13.46% 6.48% Godawari Power & Ispat Ltd 53,757.30 8,129.80 21.86% 12,059.20 22.43% 14.86% Sarda Energy & Minerals Ltd 46,428.50 7,021.90 12.73% 12,583.50 27.10% 14.58% Gallant Ispat Ltd 42,927.29 4,007.42 18.32% 6,944.32 16.18% 9.30% Prakash Industries Ltd 40,143.50 3,554.50 10.76% 5,195.20 12.94% 9% Source: All the financial information for listed industry peers mentioned above is derived from annual reports of the respective company for the year ended March 31, 2025. 44As a manufacturer of Sponge Iron, MS Billets and TMT Bars products, we compete to varying degrees with other Indian steel manufacturers. For more information on qualitative and quantitative peer comparison refer section “Industry Overview-Competition benchmarking across key players” on page 201 of this DRHP. We believe that the key competitive factors affecting our business include product quality, capacity creation and utilization, changes in manufacturing technology, workforce skill and productivity, operating costs, pricing power with large buyers, access to funding, the degree of regulation and access to a regular supply of raw materials. We cannot assure prospective investors that we will be able to compete effectively against our current or emerging competitors with respect to each of these key competitive factors. In addition, a variety of known and unknown events could have a material adverse impact on our ability to compete. Further, competing domestic steel producers have increased their manufacturing capacity and we expect domestic competition to further intensify with the ramping up of new manufacturing plants by these competitors. Maintaining or increasing our market share will depend on effective marketing initiatives and our ability to anticipate and respond to various competitive factors affecting the industry, including our ability to improve our manufacturing process and techniques, introduce new products, respond to pricing strategies of our competitors, and adapt to changes in technology and changes in customer preferences. Failure by us to compete effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. A number of our international competitors may have greater financial and other resources and some have announced plans to establish manufacturing operations in India. We may also face competition from new companies that are emerging which may attempt to obtain a share in our existing markets. These factors, among others, have intensified the competition from global steel players and there can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully in the future against our existing or potential competitors or that increased competition with respect to our activities may not have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 15. We are required to pay liquidated damages to some of our suppliers of coal and in the event we do not lift a specified percentage of the annual contracted capacity. Further, we are required to furnish performance bank guarantees for our contracts. Inability on our part to arrange such guarantee or the invocation of such guarantees by the other party may result in, inter-alia suspension of the outstanding coal supplies thereby affecting results of our operations, financial condition and other prospects Our Manufacturing Unit primarily acquire coal from South Eastern Coalfields Limited and Mahanadi Coalfields Limited pursuant to various fuel supply agreements. Under the fuel supply agreements, we are obligated to offtake 75% of the annual contracted capacity failing which we are required to pay compensation or liquidated damages to these suppliers. Although in the past, we have not faced any instances where we were required to pay liquidated damages for non-compliance, we cannot assure you that we will not be required to pay such compensation in the future. Any payment of liquidated damages may have an effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In past, the Company was required to pay liquidated damages and penalties amounting to ₹ 0.64 million, ₹ 0.53 million and ₹ 0.01 million in Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023. We are also required to provide performance bank guarantee before execution of the fuel supply agreement which is submitted upon acceptance of bid and is valid up to three months after expiry of the fuel supply agreement. The performance bank guarantees can be forfeited or invoked in whole or in part in case our Company breaches any material term of the agreement. We may also be required to submit further guarantees, thereby affecting results of our financial condition. Although in the past, we have not faced any instances where there has been any invocation of guarantees, we cannot assure you that we will not come across such situations in the future, which may have an adverse impact on our financials. 16. We do not have long-term agreements with our customers and we derive a significant portion of our revenues from our top 10 (ten) customers. The loss of, or a significant reduction in the revenues we receive from, one or more of these customers which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our product offerings cater to industrial customers through our distributors and commission agents or by directly supplying to traders. We do not typically enter into long-term contracts with our customers. In the absence of long- term contracts, there can be no assurance that our existing customers will continue to purchase our products that may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We derive a significant portion of our revenues from our Company’s top 10 (ten) customers. 45The percentage of revenue derived from our top 5 and 10 customers during Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 is given below: (₹ in million) Sr. Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Particulars No Revenue (%) Revenue (%) Revenue (%) 1. Income from top 1,947.19 23.77 1,660.70 26.37 1,593.71 28.78 5 customers 2. Income from top 2,601.92 31.76 2,373.81 37.70 2,207.81 39.87 10 customers In the Fiscal 2025, our largest customer accounted for 15.30% of our revenues. The loss of business derived from these customers or a significant reduction in, the revenues we receive from, one or more of these customers may adversely affect our business. Further, the deterioration of the financial condition or business prospects of these customers could reduce their requirement for our products and could result in a significant decline in the revenues we derive from such customers. 17. Our Company has not complied with certain statutory provisions under various acts. Such non- compliances/lapses may attract penalties. Our Company has not complied with certain statutory provisions relating to the Companies Act, 2013 and Companies Act, 1956 The Company has not filed appropriate charges related forms with the RoC for creation modification and satisfaction pertaining to a secured loan amounting to ₹1,145,122/- availed from Religare Finvest Limited and ₹4,613,188/- availed from Mahindra and Mahindra Financial Services Limited in Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2020, respectively. The Company is unable to file the requisite forms CHG-1 with the RoC due to lapse of the statutory time period for filing these forms. Our Company was required to file various forms under various rules and regulations stipulated by the Companies Act, 2013, and the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. However, in some instances, certain filings were not completed within the prescribed time periods. As a result of these delays, our Company has, on several occasions, paid the applicable late fees. Although no regulatory actions or litigation are currently pending against us regarding the delays in filing, we cannot guarantee that we will not be subjected to penalties imposed by regulatory authorities in the future. 18. Our inability to protect or use our intellectual property rights may adversely affect our business. We may also unintentionally infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others, any misappropriation of which could harm our competitive position. As on the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, our logos and are registered with the Trademark Registry under in various classes under the Trademarks Act, 1999. Further, we have made an application for registration of the logo under Class 6 which is pending. In the year 2024, we have started our B2C segment business of TMT Bars under the brand name “SKY TMT which is our flagship brand. Our " " brand has been approved for use as a preferred brand in all works undertaken by the Madhya Pradesh Public Works Department and Madhya Pradesh Housing & Infrastructure Development Board. We intend to continue to undertake brand building activities to promote the " " brand. Our application for the registration of trademark may be opposed by third parties, and we may have to incur significant cost in relation to these oppositions. In the event we are unable to register our intellectual properties for any reason, including our inability to remove objections to any trademark application or due to opposition by third parties or if any injunctive or other adverse order is issued against us in respect of our trademark for which we have applied for registration, we may not be able to claim registered ownership of such trademark and we may not be able to use such trademark and/or avail the legal protection or prevent unauthorized use of such trademark by third parties, which may adversely affect our goodwill and business. As we expand our activities, we are exposed to the risk that other entities may pass off their products as ours by imitating our name, packaging look and attempting to create counterfeit products. Any such activities may harm the reputation of our brand and sales of our products, which could in turn adversely affect our financial performance. 46There can be no assurance that our brand name or trademarks will not be adversely affected in the future by actions that are beyond our control including client complaints in relation to intellectual property rights infringement, intellectual property infringements or adverse publicity from any other source in India and abroad. Any damage to our brand name, if not immediately and sufficiently remedied, could have an adverse effect on our reputation, competitive position in India and abroad, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. While we take care to ensure that we comply with the intellectual property rights of others, we cannot determine with certainty whether we are infringing any existing third-party intellectual property rights which may force us to alter our offerings. We may also be susceptible to objections and claims from third parties asserting infringement and other related claims. While we have not been subject to any such claims in the past three Fiscals, any such claims raised in the future could result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, subject us to significant liabilities and require us to enter into potentially expensive royalty or licensing agreements or to cease certain offerings. Any of the foregoing could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. If claims or actions are adjudicated against us from third parties asserting infringement and other related claims in India and abroad, we may be required to obtain a license, modify our existing technology or cease the use of such technology and design, or use a new non-infringing technology. In addition, we may decide to settle a claim or action against us, the settlement of which could be costly and time consuming. We may also be liable for any past infringement. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The application of laws governing intellectual property rights in India is evolving and could involve substantial risks to us. Further, if we are unable to register our intellectual properties for any reason, including our inability to remove objections to any trademark application, we may not be able to claim registered ownership of such trademark, and as a result, we may not be able to seek remedies for infringement of those trademarks by third parties, which would cause damage to our business prospects, reputation and goodwill in India and abroad. Further, the illegal use or impersonation of our trademark by third parties or any negative publicity about our brand could affect our reputation and, which in turn, affects our ability to attract and/or retain customers which may adversely affect our business and results of operations. To protect our intellectual property rights, we may be required to resort to legal action to protect our intellectual property rights, which may strain our resources and divert the attention of our management from our day-to-day functioning. Furthermore, if a competitor is able to reproduce or otherwise capitalize on our technology, it may be difficult and expensive for us to obtain necessary legal protection. Any adverse outcome in any legal proceedings that we may initiate in future to successfully enforce our intellectual property may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows. For details, see “Our Business – Intellectual Property” and “Government and Other Approvals” on pages 243 and 387, respectively. In addition, in certain cases, our customers share their intellectual property rights in the course of contract manufacturing that we carry out for them. If our customer's intellectual property rights are misappropriated by our employees in violation of any applicable confidentiality agreements, our customers may seek damages and compensation from us. This could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and damage our reputation and relationships with our customers 19. We have not entered into any definitive agreement for acquisition of the land underlying the Mopka Solar Power Plant, to use a portion of the Net Proceeds from the Offer. Any delay in the acquisition of the land may lead to time and cost overrun of the Solar Power Project, which may adversely affect business operations. As described in the “Objects of the Offer” beginning on page 134, we intend to use a portion of the Net Proceeds from the Offer for the acquisition of land for our Mopka Solar Power Plant. We have identified the land on which the Mopka Solar Power Plant is intended to be set-up and have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the owners of such land for purchase of the land after conducting our due diligence. However, as on date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, we have not entered into any definitive agreement for purchase of such land. We may not be able to conclude such purchase on terms anticipated by us, or at all. The amount of Net Proceeds identified for such land acquisition is based solely on management estimates and has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or any other independent agency. The actual deployment of funds for land acquisition will depend on a number of factors, including the requirements of the sellers, changes in external circumstances or costs or other financial conditions, business strategy, etc. Further, in the event we are unable to conclude such purchase of land with the presently identified sellers, there can be no assurance that we will be able to identify suitable alternative parcels of land in a timely manner to be able to deploy the Net Proceeds as per the timelines stipulated. This may entail rescheduling the proposed utilisation of the Net Proceeds and changing the allocation of funds from our planned allocation at the discretion of our management, subject to compliance with the Companies Act, the SEBI ICDR Regulations and SEBI Listing Regulations and other applicable laws. Any delay in the acquisition of the land may lead to time and cost overrun of the Solar Power Project, which may adversely affect business operations. 4720. We are subject to certain restrictive covenants in our financing arrangements which may limit operational and financial flexibility, and failure to comply with these covenants may have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations and financial condition. Further, unsecured loans, if any, taken by the issuer can be recalled at any time. Our Company has availed term loans and working capital facilities in the ordinary course of business, for the purpose of capital expenditure, financing of vehicles and working capital requirement. As of August 31, 2025, our total fund and non-fund based outstanding indebtedness amounted to ₹ 4,828.31million. Certain financing arrangements entered into by our Company include conditions that require our Company to obtain respective lenders’ consent prior to carrying out certain activities (including certain corporate actions) and entering into certain transactions. Failure to meet these conditions or obtain these consents could have significant consequences on our business and operations. These covenants vary depending on the requirements of the financial institution extending such loan and the conditions negotiated under each financing agreement. Some of the corporate actions that require prior consents or intimations to be made to certain lenders include, amongst others; (a) changes to the capital structure of our Company or effect any material changes in its shareholding; (b) amendments to memorandum and/or articles of association of our Company, (c) implement any scheme of expansion / diversification / modernization other than incurring routine capital expenditure; (d) declare dividends for any year except out of profits relating to that year after making all due and necessary provisions; (e) change in the general nature of business of our Company; and (f) hypothecation, mortgage, pledge, creation of charge or encumbrance, sale, assignment, transfer, hire, lease, letting out or otherwise parting with possession of the assets of the Company. While we have received all relevant consents required for the purposes of this Offer and have complied with these covenants, a failure to comply with such covenants in the future may restrict or delay certain actions or initiatives that we may propose to take from time to time. For further information, see “Financial Indebtedness” beginning on page 344. There have been delays in the past in the payment of interest and principal by our Company. In the event that we breach any covenants under our financing arrangements or requisite consents/waivers cannot be obtained, the outstanding amounts due under such financing agreements could become due and payable immediately. A default under one of these financing agreements may also result in cross-defaults under other financing agreements and result in the outstanding amounts under such financing agreements becoming due and payable immediately. Defaults under one or more of our financing agreements could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. Certain of our secured loans may also permit the lenders to recall the loan on demand. In addition, we also have unsecured loans which may be recalled at any time at the option of such lenders. Unsecured loans taken by us amounting to ₹ 1,160.30 million were outstanding as of August 31, 2025, and may be recalled by our lenders at any time. Such recalls on borrowed amounts may be contingent upon happening of an event beyond our control and there can be no assurance that we will be able to persuade our lenders to give us extensions or to refrain from exercising such recalls which may adversely affect our operations and cash flows. A failure to observe the covenants under our financing arrangements or to obtain necessary waivers may lead to the termination of our credit facilities, acceleration of amounts due under such facilities, suspension of further access/ withdrawals, either in whole or in part, for the use of the facility and/or restructuring of our debt. If the obligations under any of our financing agreements are accelerated, we may have to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make payments under such financing documents, thereby reducing the availability of cash for our working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. Our future borrowings may also contain similar restrictive provisions. If our financial or growth plans require such consents, and such consents are not obtained or other condition or covenant under our financing agreements is not waived by the lender, we may be forced to forgo or alter our plans, which could adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and prospects. For further information of the proposed objects of the Offer, see “Objects of the Offer” beginning on page 134. 21. Our lenders have charge over our movable and immovable properties in respect of finance availed by us. Our inability to meet our obligations under our debt financing arrangements could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows. We have provided security in respect of loans / facilities availed by us from our lender bank by creating a charge over our movable and immovable properties. The total amounts outstanding and payable by us are as below: 48(₹ in million) Particulars As on March 31, 2025 As on March 31, 2024 As on March 31, 2023 Secured loans 1,335.37 1,542.15 1,109.63 Secured loans as % of 49.51% 86.36% 84.00% total borrowings Details of total debts with respect to current and non-current borrowings: (₹ in million) Particulars As on March 31, 2025 As on March 31, 2024 As on March 31, 2023 Current Borrowing 1,793.42 1,053.99 779.70 Non-Current 903.68 731.78 541.35 Borrowings For further details, please refer to “-Note 15– Borrowings – Non- Current and Note 15 – Borrowings – Current” on page 313 under the chapter titled “Restated Consolidated Financial Statement” beginning on page 288 and “Financial Indebtedness” beginning on page 344 of this DRHP. In the event we default in repayment of the loans / facilities availed by us and any interest thereon, our properties may be subject to invocation/forfeiture by lenders, which in turn could have significant adverse effect on business, financial condition or results of operations. Any failure on our part to comply with the terms in our loan agreements would generally result in events of default under these loan agreements. In such a case, the lenders under each of these respective loan agreements may, at their discretion, accelerate payment and declare the entire outstanding amounts under these loans due and payable. 22. Two of our Promoters and a member of our Promoter group have provided guarantees for financing facilities availed by our Company and may in the future provide additional guarantees and any failure or default by our Company to repay such facilities in accordance with the terms and conditions of the financing agreements could trigger repayment obligations. Two of our Promoters and a member of our Promoter Group have guaranteed the repayment of certain loan facilities taken by us, by guaranteeing the principal amounts for the outstanding facilities. For further details, see “Restated Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 15- Borrowings” on page 313. Our Promoters and our Promoter Group member may discontinue providing such guarantees and other security post listing of the Company in which case, we will be required to arrange for alternate security as may be acceptable to our lenders. We may not be successful in procuring guarantees satisfactory to the lenders, and as a result may need to repay outstanding amounts under such facilities or seek additional sources of capital, which could affect our financial condition and cash flows. 23. There are certain outstanding legal proceedings involving our Company, our Promoters and our Directors which if determined against us, may have an adverse effect on our business, cash flows and results of operations. There are certain outstanding legal proceedings involving our Company, our Promoters and our Directors as on the date of this DRHP. Brief details of such outstanding litigations are set forth below: Disciplinary Aggregate actions by the Statutory or Other amount Name of Criminal Tax SEBI or Stock regulatory material involved* entity proceedings proceedings Exchanges proceedings proceedings (Rs. in against our million) Promoters Company By our Nil 897.92 Nil Nil 10.53 908.45 Company Against our 0.57 Unascertaina Nil Nil Nil 0.57 Company ble Directors@ By our Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Directors Against our Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Directors 49Disciplinary Aggregate actions by the Statutory or Other amount Name of Criminal Tax SEBI or Stock regulatory material involved* entity proceedings proceedings Exchanges proceedings proceedings (Rs. in against our million) Promoters Promoters By our Nil 95.03 Nil Nil Nil 95.03 Promoters Against our Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Promoters Outstanding litigation involving our Group Company which would have a material impact on our Company By our Group Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Companies Against our Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil Group Companies Key Managerial Personnel By our Key Nil - - - - Nil Managerial Personnel Against our Nil - Nil - - Nil Key Managerial Personnel Senior Management By our Nil - - - - Nil members of Senior Management Against our Nil - Nil - - Nil members of Senior Management *To the extent ascertainable and quantifiable. @Excluding legal proceedings against our Promoters namely Ravi Singhal and Sandeep Agrawal. We cannot assure you that legal proceedings will be settled in our favour or at all, or that no additional liability will arise out of these proceedings. Further, such proceedings could divert our management's time and attention and consume financial resources in their defense or prosecution. Further, an adverse outcome in any of these proceedings may affect our reputation, standing with customers and future business, and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. For further details of the outstanding litigation proceedings, see “Outstanding Litigations and Material Developments” on page 379. 24. Our existing Manufacturing Unit is critical to our business operations. The unexpected loss, shutdown or slowdown of operations or under-utilisation of production capacities at of our Manufacturing Unit could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our existing Manufacturing Unit at Chhattisgarh is subject to operating risks, such as the breakdown or failure of equipment, power supply or processes, performance below expected levels of efficiency, obsolescence, labour, disputes, natural disasters, industrial accidents and the need to comply with the directives of relevant government authorities. Further, coal being one of our primary raw materials which depend on our inventory levels at times, is stored in open areas at our Manufacturing Unit and hence is prone to catching fire in the summer due to high temperatures. Any loss of coal as a result could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, some of our key equipment may, on occasion, be out of service as a result of routine servicing or unanticipated failures, which could require us to close part or all of the relevant manufacturing plant or cause production reductions on one or more of our manufacturing plants. Our Manufacturing Unit and such key equipment would be difficult and expensive to replace on a timely basis. 50Additionally, our existing Manufacturing Unit and operations require constant power supply for which our Manufacturing Unit is inter alia reliant on our existing Captive Power Plants. In Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, power units produced from our existing Captive Power Plants] accounted for 59.98%, 48.18% and 60.80%,, respectively, of our net power units consumed. For the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 our electricity and water expenses were ₹ 417.18 million, ₹ 286.69 million and ₹ 203.65 million constituting 5.09%, 4.55% and 3.68% respectively of our revenue from operations. However, we cannot assure you that our facilities will be operational during power failures. We source most of our electricity requirements for our Manufacturing Unit from the state electricity board. Any disruption in the supply of electricity may disrupt our operations, which may interfere with the manufacturing process, requiring us to either stop our operations or repeat activities which may involve additional time and increase our costs. High cost of energy coupled with higher duties and taxes eats into the margins of players (Source: CRISIL Report. If energy costs were to rise, or if electricity supplies or supply arrangements were disrupted, our profitability could decline. While we believe we have adequate stand-by power supply, this may not be adequate if the disruption in the supply of the power is for a longer period. Except for the purpose of upgradation of the turbine in our existing captive power plants, in the last 3 (three) Fiscals, there have been no instances which would lead to unexpected loss, shutdown or slowdown of operations or under- utilisation of production capacities at our Manufacturing Unit. The occurrence of any of these risks could affect our operations by causing production at our Manufacturing Unit to shut down or slowdown. Capacity utilization is affected by availability of raw materials, demand for our products, customer preferences, our ability to manage our inventory and implement our growth strategy of improving operational efficiency and industry/ market conditions. Installed & Capacity utilization details of our Manufacturing Unit for the last three Fiscals are detailed below: Installed Capacity Utilised Capacity Unit of Sr. Particulars Measur Fiscal Fiscal Fiscal Fiscal Fiscal No Fiscal 2023 ement 2025 2024 2023 2025 2024 1.

Any interruption in production may require significant and unanticipated capital expenditure to affect repairs or increase the cost of power, which could have a negative effect on profitability and cash flows. Any or all of these occurrences could result in the temporary or long-term closure of our manufacturing plants, severely disrupt our business operations and materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. 5125. If we are not able to obtain, renew or maintain our statutory and regulatory licenses, registrations and approvals required to operate our business, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We require certain statutory and regulatory licenses, registrations and approvals to operate our business, some of which our Company has either received, applied for or is in the process of application. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain these registrations and approvals including approvals in relations to power and water procurement in a timely manner or at all. Further, in the future, we may also be required to obtain new licenses, registrations and approvals for the Keshdabri Solar Power Plant, Mopka Solar Power Plant and Rounda Solar Power Plant. There can be no assurance that the relevant authorities will renew such licenses, registrations and approvals in a timely manner or at all. Further, these licenses, registrations and approvals are subject to several conditions, and we cannot assure that we will be able to continuously meet such conditions or be able to prove compliance with such conditions to statutory authorities, and this may lead to cancellation, revocation or suspension of relevant licenses, approvals and registrations. Failure by us to renew, maintain or obtain the required licenses or approvals, or cancellation, suspension, or revocation of any of the licenses, approvals and registrations may result in the interruption of our operations and may have a material adverse effect on our business. For further details on the licenses obtained by us and licenses for which renewal and other applications have been made, please see the chapter titled “Government and Other Statutory Approvals” beginning on page 387 of this DRHP. 26. Our insurance coverage may be inadequate, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Our business operations are subject to various risks and hazards, including failure or substandard performance of equipment, third party liability claims, labour disturbances, employee fraud, as well as fire, theft, robbery, earthquake, flood, acts of terrorism and other force majeure events. We maintain insurance policies for our Manufacturing Unit, our personnel and vehicle insurance. While we believe that the insurance coverage we maintain is in keeping with industry standards and would be reasonably adequate to cover the normal risks associated with the operation of our businesses, we cannot assure you that any claim under the insurance policies maintained by us will be honoured fully, in part or on time, or that we have taken out sufficient insurance to cover all our losses. There are possible losses, which we may not have insured against or covered or wherein the insurance cover in relation to the same may not be adequate. If we were to incur a serious uninsured loss or a loss that significantly exceeds the limits of our insurance policies, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For details, see “Our Business –Insurance” on page 244. While we have not experienced substantial uninsured losses during the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, in the event of a substantial uninsured future loss, our policies may not be sufficient to recover the full current market value or current replacement cost of our assets. The details of our total insurance coverage and our insurance coverage as a percentage of our total assets as of March 31, 2025, has been set out below: Particulars As of March 31, 2025 Total insurable assets (in ₹ million) 3,923.70 Total sum insured (in ₹ million) 4,916.21 Total sum insured as a percentage of total insurable assets (%) 125.30 *Insurable assets includes building, plant and machinery, ,furniture and fixtures, vehicles and stocks. In addition to the above, we have also obtained transit insurance of ₹ 8000.00 million. The occurrence of an event for which we are not adequately or sufficiently insured, or changes in our insurance policies (including premium increases or the imposition of deductible or co-insurance requirements), could have an adverse effect on our business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Further, we cannot assure you that renewal of our insurance policies in the normal course of our business will be granted in a timely manner, at an acceptable cost or at all. 27. Under-utilization of our manufacturing capacities and an inability to effectively utilize our manufacturing capacities could have an adverse effect on our business, future prospects and future financial performance. The success of any capacity expansion and expected return on investment on capital expenditure is subject to, among other factors, the ability to procure requisite regulatory approvals in a timely manner; recruit and ensure satisfactory performance of personnel to further grow our business; and the ability to absorb additional infrastructure costs and develop new expertise. The product requirements of, and procurement practice followed by, our customers also 52affect our capacity utilization. In recent times, we have made investments for the expansion of our manufacturing capacities and are continuing to undertake additional investments to increase our existing capacity. In case of oversupply in the industry or lack of demand we may not be able utilise our expanded capacity efficiently. Our operations are dependent on the continued functioning of our Manufacturing Unit and any disruptions including power outage, periodic maintenance shutdown may have an adverse impact on our capacity utilization and a loss of production capacity which will thereby affect our business operations and financial conditions. The capacity utilization of our sponge iron plant at the Manufacturing Unit for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, was 78.62%, 77.53% and 58.38%, respectively, while for our ferro alloys plant was 37.48%, 62.55% and 61.71%, respectively, for the same periods. The capacity utilization of our TMT Bars plant at the Manufacturing Unit for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, was 73.04%, 6.65% and nil%, respectively, while for MS-Billets plant was 95.13%, 95.02% and 61.03%, respectively, for the same periods. Further, the capacity utilization of our 12 MW AFBC Captive Power Plants was 26.97%, 37.41% and 42.50%, and for our 8 MW WHRB Captive Power Plants was 40.46%, 40.08% and 22.78%, respectively, for the same period. Under-utilization of our manufacturing capacities over extended periods, or significant under-utilization in the short term, could materially and adversely impact our business, growth prospects and future financial performance. We also face the risk that our customers might not place any order or might place orders of lesser than expected size or may even cancel existing orders or make change in their policies, which may result in reduced quantities being manufactured by us resulting in under-utilization of our existing manufacturing capacity. Further, we make significant decisions, including determining the levels of business that we will seek and accept, production schedules, personnel requirements and other resource requirements, based on our estimates of customer orders. The changes in demand for their products (which are in turn manufactured by us) could reduce our ability to estimate accurately future customer requirements, make it difficult to schedule production and lead to over production and utilization of our manufacturing capacity for a particular product. The requirements of our customers are not restricted to one type of product and therefore variations in demand for certain types of products also requires us to make certain changes in our manufacturing processes thereby affecting our production schedules. This may lead to over production of certain products and under production of some other products resulting in a complete mismatch of capacity and capacity utilization. Any such mismatch leading to over or under utilization of our manufacturing facilities could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. 28. Our funding requirements and proposed deployment of the Net Proceeds of the Offer have not been appraised by any bank or financial institutions and if there are any delays or cost overruns, our business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. Any variation in the utilization of our Net Proceeds as disclosed in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus would be subject to certain compliance requirements. We propose to use the Net Proceeds from the Fresh Issue towards funding capital expenditure requirements for setting up the Keshdabri Solar Power Plant and the Mopka Solar Power Plant, Repayment/ pre-payment in full or in part, of certain outstanding loans availed by our Company and general corporate purposes, as set forth in “Objects of the Offer” on page 134. The utilisation of the Gross Proceeds will be monitored by the Monitoring Agency. Our funding requirements are based on management estimates, our current business plans and the TEV Report. The proposed deployment of Net Proceeds has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or other independent agency and is based on internal management estimates based on current market conditions and historic level of expenditures. Our management estimates may differ from the value that would have been determined by third party appraisals, which may require us to reschedule or reallocate our expenditure, subject to applicable laws, and may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Various risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in this “Risk Factors” section, may limit or delay our efforts to use the Net Proceeds to achieve profitable growth in our business, including delaying the schedule of implementation of projects for which the Net Proceeds are intended for. As a consequence of any increased costs, our actual deployment of funds may be higher than our management estimates, for which we may require additional funding that we may not be able to arrange on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. We may also face delays or incur additional costs due to failure to receive regulatory approvals, technical difficulties, human resource, technological or other resource constraints, or for other unforeseen reasons, events or circumstances. We may have to reconsider our estimates or business plans due to changes in underlying factors, some of which are beyond our control, such as interest rate fluctuations, changes in input cost, and other financial and operational factors. Accordingly, prospective investors in the Offer will need to rely upon our management’s judgment with respect to the use of Net Proceeds. If we are unable to deploy the Net Proceeds in a timely or an efficient manner, it may affect our business and the results of operations. Further, our Promoters or controlling shareholders would be required to provide an exit opportunity to the shareholders who do not agree with our proposal to change the objects of the Offer or vary the terms of such contracts, at a price and manner as prescribed by SEBI. Additionally, the requirement on Promoters or controlling 53shareholders to provide an exit opportunity to such dissenting shareholders may deter the Promoters or controlling shareholders from agreeing to the variation of the proposed utilisation of the Net Proceeds, even if such variation is in the interest of our Company. Further, we cannot assure you that the Promoters or the controlling shareholders of our Company will have adequate resources at their disposal at all times to enable them to provide an exit opportunity at the price prescribed by SEBI. In light of these factors, we may not be able to undertake variation of objects of the Offer to use any unutilized proceeds of the Offer, if any, or vary the terms of any contract referred to in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, even if such variation is in the interest of our Company. This may restrict our Company’s ability to respond to any change in our business or financial condition by re-deploying the unutilized portion of Net Proceeds, if any, or varying the terms of contract, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations. 29. We depend on third parties for our suppliers, logistics and transportation needs. Any disruptions in the same may adversely affect our operations, business, cash flows and financial condition. All the transportation, logistics needs for our product supplies are handled by third parties. We do not have an in- house transportation facility and we rely on third party transportation and other logistic facilities at every stage of our business activity including for procurement of products from our suppliers and for transportation from our distribution centres to various stores. However, we do not enter into any formal agreements with the third parties for our logistics and transportation needs. Since the cost of our goods carried by third party transporters is typically much higher than the consideration paid for transportation, it may be difficult for us to recover damages for damaged, delayed or lost goods. Our operations and profitability are dependent upon the availability of transportation and other logistic facilities in a timely and cost-efficient manner. Accordingly, our business is vulnerable to increased transportation costs, transportation strikes and lock-outs, shortage of labour, delays and disruption of transportation services for events such as weather-related problems and accidents. Further, movement of goods encounters additional risks such as accidents, pilferage, spoilage, shrinkage and our inability to claim insurance may adversely affect our operations, results of operations and financial condition. Although we have not experienced any material logistics and transport related disruptions in the past, any prolonged disruption or unavailability of such facilities in a timely manner could result in delays or non-supply or may require us to look for alternative sources which may not be cost-effective, thereby adversely affecting our operations, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. We rely on third party raw material suppliers for our business. We are exposed to the risk of these suppliers, third party manufacturers and service providers failing to adhere to the standards set for them by us and statutory and/ or regulatory bodies in respect of factors such as quality, quantum of production, weights and measures and safety standards and non-compliance of relevant rules and regulations, and any consequent action by such statutory and/ or regulatory bodies or otherwise, could adversely affect our business operations, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, due to reasons such as shortage of supply, product liability claims and product recalls. This may also result in loss of confidence on the part of our customers and adversely affect our reputation. Further, any delay or failure to deliver the products in a timely manner, would result in adverse effect on our business operations, results of operation, cash flows and financial condition. Any litigation involving such third parties may cause a material adverse effect on our reputation. 30. We are dependent on our Promoters, Key Managerial Personnel, Senior Management Personnel for our business. The loss of or our inability to attract or retain such persons could have an adverse effect on our business performance. Our business and the implementation of our strategy is dependent upon our Promoters, Key Managerial Personnel, Senior Management Personnel, who oversee our day-to-day operations, strategy and growth of our business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain these personnel or find adequate replacements in a timely manner, or at all. We may not be able to hire and train replacement personnel immediately when qualified personnel terminate their employment with our Company. We may also be required to increase our levels of employee compensation more rapidly than in the past to remain competitive in attracting employees that our business requires. Further, our competitors may offer compensation and remuneration packages beyond what we are offering to our key management team. If one or more members of our key management team are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, such persons would be difficult to replace in a timely and cost-effective manner, and our business, prospects, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. 54The details of attrition amongst the employees of the Company are as under: Period Attrition Rate Fiscal 2025 3.86% Fiscal 2024 2.14% Fiscal 2023 2.36% However, there can be no assurance that attrition rates for our employees will not increase. Further, a significant increase in our employee attrition rate could also result in decreased operational efficiencies and productivity, loss of market knowledge and customer relationships, and an increase in recruitment and training costs, thereby materially and adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition. The loss of our Key Managerial Personnel or members of our Senior Management or our inability to replace such Key Managerial Personnel or members of our Senior Management may restrict our ability to grow, to execute our strategy, to raise the profile of our brand, to raise funding, to make strategic decisions and to manage the overall running of our operations, which would have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows. 31. Conflict of interest may arise as one of our Promoter Group entities is engaged in a similar line of business as our Company which may lead to real or potential conflicts of interest for our Promoters. One of our Promoter group entities namely, Sky Steel and Power Private Limited is engaged in a business similar to ours viz. manufacturing of sponge iron. However, our Company and Sky Steel and Power Private Limited have entered into a Non-Compete Agreement dated September 20, 2025 agreeing that Sky Steel and Power Private Limited will not enter into/carry on business of manufacture, sale or trading of TMT bars in India or abroad for a period of 5 (five) years from the date of the said Non-Compete Agreement. In future, there may be conflict of interest in allocating business opportunities between us. We cannot assure you that there will not be any conflict of interest between our Company and group companies in future. 32. Key challenges in the global steel industry such as global slowdown, availability of raw materials and price volatility, trade barriers and environmental concerns and regulations that are beyond our control may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. We are dependent on domestic, regional and global economic and market conditions prevailing in the regions, from where some of our revenue from operations is generated. There have been periods of slowdown in the global economic growth due to the turbulence in the financial sector, geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions, tightening monetary policies, persistent inflation, and hikes in interest rates. The decline in economic activity may lead to reduction in demand for our products may be adversely affected by an economic downturn in domestic and regional economies. Consequently, any future slowdown in the Indian economy could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further, the availability of raw materials, is critical in our industry. The raw materials we use are subject to price volatility and unavailability. Further our raw material supply and pricing may become volatile due to a number of factors beyond our control, including global demand and supply, general economic and political conditions, transportation and labour costs, labour unrest, natural disasters, competition and there are inherent uncertainties in estimating such variables, regardless of the methodologies and assumptions that we may use. For instance, the prices were affected by the geopolitical tension between Russia and Ukraine. Therefore, we cannot assure that we will be able to procure adequate supplies of raw materials in the future, as and when we need them on commercially acceptable terms. Moreover, any adverse change in policies, in terms of tariff and non-tariff barriers, import restrictions on trade, and export bans by governments worldwide, may hamper the growth of the steel industry, causing disruptions in trade globally and which may negatively impact our profitability. We have to comply with rigid environmental regulations. We cannot assure you that in future our costs of complying with current and future environmental laws and other regulations will not adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. 33. We require working capital for our continued operations and growth. Our inability to meet our working capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 55Our business requires significant working capital, including to finance the purchase of raw materials and the development and manufacturing of products before payment is received from customers. The table below sets forth our working capital days and our trade payables turnover ratio for the years indicated: Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Working Capital Days* 23.61 22.24 24.11 Trade Payables Turnover Ratio** 43.34 31.00 24.73 Notes: *Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) divided by revenue from operations and multiplied by 365 days. **Purchases of materials and stock-in-trade divided by average trade payables. Factors including unforeseen delays, cost overruns, unanticipated expenses, regulatory changes and economic conditions could result in increases in our trade receivables and/or write-offs of trade receivables and may also require us to avail short-term borrowings in the future. Continued increases in our working capital requirements may have an adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Our sources of additional financing, in the event that we need to draw on them to meet our working capital needs, may include the incurrence of debt, the issue of equity or a combination of both. If we do incur debt in the future, our interest and debt repayment obligations will increase, which may adversely affect our profitability and cash flows. We may also become subject to restrictive covenants in our financing agreements, which could limit our ability to access cash flows from operations and undertake certain types of transactions. Further, any issuance of equity would dilute existing shareholders’ shareholding, our earnings per Equity Share and your interest in our Company. Such occurrences could adversely impact the market price of our Equity Shares, once listed. Our ability to obtain financing on favourable terms, if at all, will depend on various factors, including our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, the amount and terms of our existing indebtedness, general market conditions and market conditions for financing activities. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain additional financing in the future on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all, to meet our working capital needs. Our inability to do so may adversely affect our expansion plans, business, financial condition and results of operations. 34. We are subject to strict quality requirements and any product defect issues or failure by us or our raw material suppliers to comply with quality standards may lead to the cancellation of existing and future orders, recalls and exposure to potential product liability claims. We may face an inherent business risk of exposure to product defects and subsequent liability claims if the use of any of our products results in personal injury or property damage, however, in the past existence of our business operations we have not faced any liability claim for our products which has resulted in personal injury or property damage. Some of the products manufactured by us need to comply with certain standards as prescribed by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). We may not be able to meet regulatory relevant quality standards in India, or the quality standards imposed by our customers and applicable to our manufacturing processes, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Further, we have entered into a contract manufacturing arrangement with one of our customers for manufacturing and supplying to them TMT rebars on job work basis and we are required to adhere to certain stringent quality specifications and other conditions under our contract with them. If any of our products do not meet regulatory standards or are defective or our not compliant with the terms of our contracts with our customers, we may be, inter alia, (i) responsible for damages relating to any defective products, (ii) required to replace, recall or redo such products, (iv) pay certain penalties and/or interest or (iii) incur significant costs to defend any such claims. The failure by us or any of our suppliers to achieve or maintain compliance with regulatory requirements or quality standards may disrupt our ability to supply products sufficient to meet demand until compliance is achieved or, until a new supplier has been identified and evaluated. The quality of raw materials will have an impact on the quality of the finished products and in turn affect our brand image, business and revenue. There is no assurance that our products will always meet the satisfaction of our customers’ quality standards. Our failure to comply with applicable regulations could cause adverse consequences to be imposed on us, including fines, injunctions, civil penalties, the refusal of regulatory authorities to grant approvals or renewal, delays, suspensions or withdrawal of approvals, license revocation, seizures or recalls of products, operating restrictions and criminal prosecutions, all of which could harm our business. There can be no assurance that if we need to engage new suppliers to satisfy our business requirement, we will be able locate new suppliers in compliance with regulatory requirements in a timely manner, 56or at all. Failure to do so could lead to the cancellation of existing and future orders and have a material adverse effect on our business and revenue. 35. Information relating to the installed manufacturing capacity of our existing manufacturing plants included in this DRHP is based on various assumptions and estimates and future production and capacity may vary. Information relating to the installed manufacturing capacity, capacity utilization of our Manufacturing Unit included in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus are based on various assumptions and estimates of our management that have been taken into account by an independent chartered engineer in the calculation of the installed manufacturing capacity and capacity utilization of our Manufacturing Unit. Installed & Capacity utilization details of our Manufacturing Unit for the last financial year i.e. FY 2024-25 are as given below: Existing Unit of Utilized Capacity in Particulars Installed Capacity Measurement FY 2024-25 (A) Sponge Iron TPA 120,000 94,340.14 MS Billets TPA 100,000 95,130.51 TMT Bars TPA 95,000 69,384.36 Ferro Alloys TPA 30,000 11,243.55 Captive Power Plant being the Waste MW / Units 8 23,304.03 Heat Recovery Boiler (8 MW) Captive Power Plant being the Atmospheric Fluidized Bed MW / Units 12 23,304.03 Combustion (AFBC) Boiler (12 MW) For further details, please refer chapter titled “Our Business” on page 218 of this DRHP. These assumptions and estimates include there being no lock down/strikes/stoppages/shutdowns, ingredients for plant production being available without interruption, regular maintenance and annual overhead being carried on as per plant schedules, uninterrupted power supply as well as no change in government policies which affect the cost of production and labour relations. The utilised capacity of ferro alloy products may vary depending on the type of ferro alloy produced. Further, capacity utilization has been calculated on the basis of actual production during the relevant period divided by the aggregate installed capacity of relevant plants as of at the end of the relevant period. Actual production levels and future capacity utilization rates may vary significantly from the estimated production capacities of our plants and historical capacity utilization rates. Actual utilization rates may differ significantly from the estimated installed capacities or historical estimated capacity utilization information of our manufacturing plants. Undue reliance should therefore not be placed on our installed capacity or historical estimated capacity utilization information for our existing plants included in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. 36. Activities in our business operations can be dangerous and can cause injury to people or property in certain circumstances. This could subject us to significant disruptions in business, legal and regulatory actions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The steel manufacturing business requires our employees to work under potentially hazardous circumstances, including with highly flammable and explosive materials. Despite compliance with requisite safety requirements and standards, the operation of our business is subject to hazards associated with the handling of dangerous materials. If improperly handled or subjected to unsuitable conditions, these materials could injure our employees or other persons, damage our and others’ property and/or harm the environment. In the event that any calamity takes place, we may be liable for certain costs related to hazardous materials, including cost for health-related claims, or removal or treatment of such substances, including claims and litigation from our current or former employees or other persons for injuries arising from exposure to materials or other hazards. Although, no such instances have happened in the past, there can be no assurance that such incidence will not happen in the future which could subject us to significant disruption in our business, as well as legal and regulatory actions, which could adversely affect the business, financial condition, and results of operations. 5737. If we are unable to sustain or manage our growth, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows may be materially adversely affected. The success of our business will depend greatly on our ability to effectively implement our business and growth strategy. Whilst we have successfully executed our business strategy in the past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to execute our strategy on time and within the estimated budget, or that we will meet the expectations of targeted customers. Our inability to manage our business and growth strategy could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 38. A downgrade in our credit rating could adversely affect our ability to raise capital in the future. Our financing agreements require us to obtain a credit rating from an independent agency. Our Company has received CRISIL A-/Stable credit rating from CRISIL Ratings Limited pursuant to its last rating rationale dated December 10, 2024 in relation to certain of our borrowings. Our credit ratings, which are intended to measure our ability to meet our debt obligations, are a significant factor in determining our finance costs. The interest rates of certain of our borrowings may be significantly dependent on our credit ratings. A downgrade of our credit ratings could lead to greater risk with respect to refinancing our debt and would likely increase our cost of borrowing and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects. 39. We have had instance of delays in payments of statutory dues by our Company. Any delays in payment of statutory dues may attract financial penalties from the respective government authorities and in turn may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our Company is required to pay certain statutory dues including provident fund contributions and employee state insurance contributions under the Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 and the Employees’ State Insurance Act, 1948, respectively, professional taxes, gratuity and tax deducted at source (“TDS”). The table below sets forth the details of the delays in statutory dues payable by our Company for the periods indicated below: Nature of Statutory Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Dues Due Due Nature Due Amount Nature Amount of Amount Number Nature of including Number of including Number Instance (₹ of Days Instances Interest of Days Instance Interest of Days s millions) (₹ s (₹ millions) millions) TDS (Other Than 1 1.01 53-53 5 1.17 60-60 15 3.99 1-159 Salary) TDS on 1 0.60 22-22 - - - 1 0.36 31-31 Salary TCS 5 1.20 8-105 2 0.65 4-31 2 0.17 54-54 Employees Provident - - - 1 0.042 11-11 11 0.61 2-488 Fund ESIC 1 0.26 1-1 2 .020 1-29 2 0.22 6-491 While our Company has undertaken corrective actions to avoid any such delays in payments in the future, we cannot assure you that no such delays will occur in the future. Any failure or delay in payment of such statutory dues may expose us to statutory and regulatory action, as well as significant penalties, and may adversely impact our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. 5840. We may be affected by strikes, work stoppages or increased wage demands by our employees that could interfere with our operations. We operate in a labour-intensive industry. As of March 31, 2025, we had a workforce comprising of 778 permanent employees and 250 contract labour for our operations. The success of our operations depends on the availability of labour and our ability to maintain a good relationship with our workforce. Our success also depends on our ability to attract, hire, train and retain skilled workers who are experienced. For details, see “Our Business –Human Resources” on page 239 of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. There can be no assurance that we will not experience any disruption in our operations die to disputes, strikes, lockouts or work stoppages, in the future as a result of disputes or disagreements with our work force, which may adversely affect our ability to continue our business operations Further, our employees are not unionised into any labour or workers’ unions and have not experienced any major work stoppages due to labour disputes or cessation of work in the last three years. Any labour unrest directed against us, could directly or indirectly prevent or hinder our normal operating activities, and, if not resolved in a timely manner, could lead to disruptions in our operations. These actions are improbable for us to forecast or control and any such event could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Any of the foregoing may adversely affect our business and results of operations. We are also subject to a number of stringent labour laws that protect the interests of workers, including the Industrial Relations Code, 2020. We have not experienced any unionisation, work stoppages or material increase in labour costs that have had an adverse effect on our business or results of operations during the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023. Any labour unrest including labour disputes, strikes, lockouts or industrial accidents experienced by us or delays in resolving such labour unrest, could directly or indirectly prevent or hinder our normal operating activities. Any such prolonged disruptions to our business could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. 41. This Draft Red Herring Prospectus contains information from industry sources including the industry report commissioned from CRISIL Limited exclusively for the Offer and paid for by the Company. Investors are advised not to place undue reliance on such information. We have commissioned and paid for a report titled “Market assessment and outlook across Steel industry value chain” dated September 2025 issued by CRISIL Limited (the “CRISIL Report”), which is exclusively prepared for the purposes of the Offer, which has been used for industry related data that has been disclosed in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. Our Company, our Promoters, our Directors, our KMPs and members of our Senior Management are not related to CRISIL. The CRISIL Report uses certain methodologies for market sizing and forecasting and relies on assumptions which are specified in the CRISIL Report. The CRISIL Report is prepared based on industry information as of specific dates and may no longer be current or reflect current trends and has based its information on estimates, projections, forecasts and assumptions that may prove to be incorrect.

Accordingly, prospective investors should not base their investment decision solely on the information in the CRISIL Report and the investors should read the industry related disclosure in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus in this context. For details, see “Industry Overview” on page 164. In view of the foregoing, you may not be able to seek legal recourse for any losses resulting from under-taking any investment in the Offer pursuant to reliance on the information in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus based on, or derived from, the CRISIL Report. You should consult your own advisors and undertake an independent assessment of information in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus based on, or derived from, the CRISIL Report before making any investment decision regarding the Offer. For the disclaimers associated with the CRISIL Report, see “Certain Conventions, Presentation of Financial, Industry and Market Data and Currency of Presentation - Industry and Market Data” on page 19. 42. We appoint contract labour for carrying out certain of our operations and we may be held responsible for paying the wages of such workers, if the independent contractors through whom such workers are hired default on their obligations, and such obligations could have an adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. We engage independent contractors through whom we engage contract labourers for performance of certain functions at our existing manufacturing plants in order to maintain operational efficiency, retain flexibility and 59control costs. Although we do not engage these labourers directly, we are responsible for any wage and statutory payments to be made to such labourers in the event of default by such independent contractors. Our Company has engaged 250 contract labourers as on March31, 2025 as compared to 778 employees. The details of production charges/ contractual labour charges for the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 are as set-out below: (₹ in million) Particulars As on March 31, 2025 As on March 31, 2024 As on March 31, 2023 Salary & Wages 206.40 118.00 88.56 Contractual Labour charges paid Outstanding Contractual 19.39 14.18 8.95 Labour charges Salary & Wages Total Production 225.79 132.18 97.51 Charges/ Contractual Labour charges Salary& Wages for the period Any requirement to fund their wage requirements may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and our financial conditions. In addition, we may be liable for or exposed to litigations, sanctions, penalties or losses arising from accidents or damages caused by our workers or contractors.Further, under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, as amended, we may be required to absorb a number of such contract labourers as permanent employees in specified situations. Thus, any such order from a regulatory body or court may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 43. We are heavily dependent on machinery for our operations and any disruption to the same may cause interruption in business. Our existing Manufacturing Unit is dependent on plant and machinery. It requires periodic maintenance checks and technical support in an event of technical breakdown or malfunctioning. Further, the expense incurred on property, plant and equipment as a percentage of total assets for the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 are given below: (₹ in million) Particulars March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 March 31, 2024 Property, Plant and 616.30 929.71 298.81 Equipment Total Assets 5,240.76 3,880.78 2,857.52 Property, Plant and 11.75% 23.96% 10.45% Equipment as a % of Total Assets Any significant malfunction or breakdown of our machineries may entail significant repair and maintenance costs and cause delays in our operations. While our Company has entered into annual maintenance for some machineries, it has not entered into any technical support service agreements for all our machineries and such machineries are repaired through our Company’s own in-house maintenance team to service/ repair the machinery or the Company at times engages third parties to service /repair its machinery, as may be required. Any failure to quickly redress any technical issue may increase our downtime which may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further, while we maintain necessary supplies of spare parts and maintenance related equipment, if we are unable to procure the necessary spare parts in a timely manner, or if we are unable to repair the malfunctioning machinery promptly, our manufacturing operations may be hampered, which could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 44. Our inability to accurately forecast demand or price for our products and manage our inventory may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. We will include this risk. Our business depends on our estimate of the demand for our products from customers. We estimate demand for our products based on past sales and advance purchase order. If we overestimate demand, we may purchase more raw materials and manufacture more products than required. If we underestimate demand, we may manufacture fewer quantities of products than required, which could result in delayed or non-fulfilment of purchase orders resulting in loss of customers, goodwill and business. Our Inventory turnover ratio for the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 was 606.32, 5.53 and 5.40, respectively. In addition, if our products do not achieve widespread acceptance or our customers, change their procurement preferences, we may be required to incur significant inventory markdowns or may not be able to sell the products at all, which would affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. As such, our inability to accurately forecast demand for our products and manage our inventory may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. 45. We have certain contingent liabilities, which, if they materialize, may adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Our contingent liabilities as at March 31, 2025, are as follows: (₹ in million) Particulars As at March 31, 2025 (i) Income-tax litigations 924.56 (ii) GST litigations 2.05 Total 926.61 We cannot assure you that we will not incur similar or increased levels of contingent liabilities in the future. If any of these contingent liabilities materialize, our financial condition and results of operation may be adversely affected. For further details on our contingent liabilities, see “Summary of the Offer Document” and “Restated Financial Statements – Note: 38:Commitments and Contingencies” on pages 23 and 334, respectively. 46. The land on which our Registered Office of our Company is situated is not owned by us and we enjoy only a leasehold right, the same is leased from our Promoter, Ravi Singhal. If we are unable to occupy and use these premises or fail to extend the lease period on lease expiry on reasonable terms, it may have a material adverse effect on the business and future prospects of our Company. We have entered into a lease agreement dated February 3, 2023, with our Promoter, Ravi Singhal, for the land on which our Registered Office is situated and which is valid for a period of 15 years. For our Registered Office, there can be no assurance that we will be able to renew such lease agreement on terms that are favourable or acceptable to us or at all. In the event that we are unable to obtain an extension or the lease is terminated due to any reason, we may have to vacate the premises in case any dispute arises with the owner of the premises and relocate which may have an adverse effect on us. Upon expiration of the lease agreement for our leased premises, we will be required to negotiate the terms and conditions on which the lease agreement may be renewed. Termination of our lease may occur for reasons beyond our control, such as breach of any terms of the lease agreement by the landlord of our premises. If we breach the terms of the lease agreement, we may have to shut down our operations at those premises which may, in turn, cause disruptions to our business and may materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. 47. A shortage or non-availability of essential utilities such as electricity and water could affect our manufacturing operations and have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our business operations are heavily dependent on continuous supply of electricity and water which are critical to our manufacturing operations. While our power requirements are met through our Captive Power Plants and electricity purchased from state electricity departments, we cannot assure you that these will be sufficient and, or, that we will not face a shortage of electricity despite these arrangements. If supply is not available for any reason, we will need to rely on alternative sources, which may not be able to consistently meet our requirements. Further, if for any reason such electricity is not available, we may need to shut down our plants until an adequate supply of electricity is restored. Interruptions of electricity supply can also result in production shutdowns, increased costs associated with restarting production and the loss of production in progress. We currently source our water requirements through the Mand river, (a tributary of Mahanadi river). There is no assurance that we will at all times receive a continued supply of water on the scale required by us or at all. While we have not experienced any such shortages in supply of electricity or of water, any shortage or non-availability of electricity or water or could result in temporary shut-down of a part, or all, of our operations at the location experiencing such shortage. Such shut- downs could, particularly if they are for prolonged periods, have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 48. Certain of our Promoters, Directors and Key Managerial Personnel and members of Senior Management may have interests in us other than reimbursement of expenses incurred and normal remuneration or benefits. Certain of our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and members of Senior Management may be regarded as having an interest in our Company other than reimbursement of expenses incurred and normal remuneration, commission or benefits. Certain Directors and Promoters may be deemed to be interested to the extent 61of Equity Shares, as applicable, held by them and by members of our Promoter Group, to the extent applicable, as well as to the extent of any dividends, bonuses or other distributions on such Equity Shares. Certain of our promoters and directors are interested in the promotion of our Company. Further, our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and members of Senior Management may also be interested to the extent of any transaction entered into by our Company with any other company or firm in which they are directors or partners or proprietors. For further details, see “Capital Structure”, “Our Promoters and Promoter Group” and “Our Management” on pages 93, 279 and 261, respectively. Additionally, we have obtained on lease the use of the land on which our registered office is situate from our Promoter, Ravi Singhal. For details see, “Our Business -Our Properties”, “Our Promoters and Promoter Group - Interest in property acquired, acquisition of land, construction of building and supply of machinery, etc.” and “Risk Factor 46- The land on which our Registered Office of our Company is situated is not owned by us and we enjoy only a leasehold right, the same is leased from our Promoter, Ravi Singhal. If we are unable to occupy and use these premises or fail to extend the lease period on lease expiry on reasonable terms, it may have a material adverse effect on the business and future prospects of our Company” on pages 243, 280 and 61, respectively. 49. Some of the Directors of the Company do not have prior experience of being a director of a public listed company. Except our Non-executive Independent Director namely Mr. Subhash Chander Verma, the other Directors of the Company do not have experience in holding directorship of public listed company. Accordingly, they have limited exposure to management of affairs of the listed company which inter-alia entails several compliance requirements and scrutiny of affairs by shareholders, regulators and the public at large that is associated with being a listed company. As a listed company, the Company will require to adhere strict standards pertaining to accounting, corporate governance and reporting that it did not require as an unlisted company. The Company will also be subject to the SEBI Listing Regulations, which will require it to file audited annual and unaudited quarterly reports with respect to its business and financial condition. If the Company experiences any delays, we may fail to satisfy its reporting obligations and/or it may not be able to readily determine and accordingly report any changes in its results of operations as promptly as other listed companies. Further, as a publicly listed company, the Company will need to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, including keeping adequate records of daily transactions. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, significant resources and management attention will be required. As a result, the Board of Directors of the Company may have to provide increased attention to such procedures and their attention may be diverted from our business concerns, which may adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, we may need to hire additional legal and accounting staff with appropriate experience and technical accounting knowledge, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so in a timely and efficient manner. 50. Any change in government policies may impact the growth of the infrastructure sector leading to a decline in sales from the institutional segment adversely affecting our business, prospects and results of operations. Our business operations are dependent on favourable government policies and spending of the government in the infrastructure sector. For instance, we believe that the launch of Pradhan Mantri Gati Shakti and the Bharatmala Pariyojana of the Government of India for enhancing seamless transport connectivity and strengthening the national highways network which has created opportunities for the steel sector. According to the CRISIL Report, till February 2025, 6,669 km of high-speed greenfield corridors awarded, of which 4,610 km have been completed under the Bharatmala Pariyojana. This will increase the demand of steel products in general. Any unfavourable change in the existing policy of the government towards the infrastructure sector such as reduced expenditure in the infrastructure segment, or delay in implementation of the infrastructure projects sanctioned may result in decreased demand of steel products in the institutional segment. Any such unfavourable changes and the related uncertainties with respect to the government policies may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. 51.

Our Promoters and members of Promoter Group will continue to retain a majority shareholding in our Company after the Offer, which will allow them to exercise significant influence over us. After the completion of the Offer, our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group are expected to hold [●] % of our outstanding total issued and paid-up Equity Share capital. Further, the involvement of our Promoters in our operations, including through strategy, direction and customer relationships have been integral to our development and business.

This concentration of ownership may also delay, defer or even prevent a change in control of our Company and may make some transactions more difficult or impossible without the support of our Promoters and Promoter Group. Further, the Promoters' shareholding may limit the ability of a third party to acquire control. The interests of our Promoters and Promoter Group, as our Company's controlling shareholder, could conflict with our Company's interests, your interests or the interests of our other shareholders. There is no assurance that our Promoters and member of the Promoter Group will act to resolve any conflicts of interest in our Company's or your favour. 53. We have in the past entered into related party transactions and will continue to do so in the future and we cannot assure you that we could not have achieved more favourable terms if such transactions had not been entered into with related parties. We have in the past entered into transactions with certain of our related parties and are likely to do so in the future. In Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, the aggregate amount of such related party transactions and the percentage of the aggregate value of such related party transactions to corresponding total transactions as per the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively is as stated below: (Amount in INR Millions, unless otherwise stated) Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Related Related Total Related Total Party Total Nature of % of Party Transac % of Party Transac % of Transa Transacti Transac Total Transac tion Total Transacti tion Total ctions on under tions Transa tions under Transa ons under Transac during the same ction during the same ction during the same tion the nature the Year nature the Year nature Year Sales - 8,192.40 0.00% 15.15 6,296.88 0.24% 101.11 5,536.31 1.83% Financial 100.00 100.00 35.40 35.40 23.60 23.60 - - 0.00% guarantee % % 63Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Related Related Total Related Total Party Total Nature of % of Party Transac % of Party Transac % of Transa Transacti Transac Total Transac tion Total Transacti tion Total ctions on under tions Transa tions under Transa ons under Transac during the same ction during the same ction during the same tion the nature the Year nature the Year nature Year commission received Purchases 133.94 6,019.74 2.22% 50.85 4,366.98 0.00% 315.13 3,837.29 0.00% Commission - 11.99 0.00% - 13.56 0.00% 1.08 9.77 11.09% Paid Rent Paid 0.18 0.20 91.49% 0.18 0.47 38.68% 0.18 0.48 37.81% Interest Paid 3.06 202.70 1.51% 3.02 102.13 2.95% 4.18 125.12 3.34% Interest 0.06 5.18 1.24% - 5.65 0.00% 2.02 0.00% Received Directors 100.00 100.00 Remuneratio 9.10 9.10 10.00 10.00 10.20 10.20 100.00% % % n Salary Paid - 12.87 0.00% - 21.45 0.00% 19.52 0.00% Freight and Carriage 181.00 422.03 42.89% 179.70 496.47 36.19% 48.59 524.37 9.27% Paid Investment 67.50 74.15 91.03% 94.50 118.50 79.75% - - 0.00% in Shares Loans & 100.00 Advances 17.50 31.81 55.01% 2.50 2.50 0.02 61.46 0.03% % given Shares purchased during the year 3.65 74.15 4.92% 24.00 118.50 20.25% - - 0.00% (Sky Steel and Power Pvt.

While we believe that all such transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, we cannot assure you that we could not have obtained more favourable terms had such transactions been entered into with unrelated parties. Although all related party transactions that we may enter into post-listing, will be subject to board, shareholders’ approval or audit committee approval, as necessary under the Companies Act and the Listing Regulations, we cannot assure you that such transactions in the future, individually or in the aggregate, will not have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 54. There may be significant independent press coverage about our Company and this Offer, and we strongly caution you not to place reliance on any information contained in press articles, including, in particular, any financial projections, valuations or other forward-looking information, and any statements that are inconsistent with the information contained in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. There may be significant press coverage about our Company and this Issue that may include financial projections, valuations and other forward-looking information, as well as statements that are inconsistent or conflict with the information contained in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. We do not accept any responsibility for, and there can be no assurance as to, the accuracy or completeness of such press articles, and we make no representation or warranty as to the appropriateness, accuracy, completeness or reliability of any of the projections, valuations, forward-looking information, or of any assumptions underlying such projections, valuations, forward-looking information or any statements that are inconsistent or conflict with the information contained in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, included in or referred to by the media. You should not rely on any projection as to our future financial performance. You are advised to not rely on information from sources other than this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. 55. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditure and restrictive covenants in our financing arrangements. Our Company has not paid any dividend in last three Fiscal Years viz. Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023. We may retain all our future earnings, if any, for use in the operations and expansion of our business. As a result, we may not declare dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on factors that our Board of Directors deem relevant, including among others, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, business prospects and any other financing arrangements. Additionally, under some of our loan agreements, we may not be permitted to declare any dividends, if there is a default under such loan agreements or unless our Company has paid all the dues to the lender up to the date on which the dividend is declared or paid or has made satisfactory provisions thereof. Accordingly, realization of a gain on shareholders investments may largely depend upon the appreciation of the price of our Equity Shares. There can be no assurance that our Equity Shares will appreciate in value. For details of our dividend history, see “Dividend Policy” beginning on page 287 of this DRHP. 56. Our Company does not have any documentary evidence for the educational qualifications for one of our Promoters. We are unable to trace the degree certificate of one of our Promoters, Ravi Singhal, who holds a bachelor’s degree in commerce from Pandit Ravishankar Shukla University, Chhattisgarh. He has made an application for a duplicate degree with the abovementioned university and the same is pending to be received. We have relied on the mark 65sheet as documents evidencing educational qualification. We cannot assure you that the information relating to such Director included in “Our Management” is true and accurate. 57. If we do not continue to invest in new technologies and equipment, our technologies and equipment may become obsolete and our cost of processing may increase relative to our competitors, which may have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Going forward, our profitability and competitiveness will depend in large part on our ability to maintain low cost of operations, including our ability to process and supply sufficient quantities of our products as per the agreed specifications. The details of the amount invested in new equipment (plant & machinery, office equipment and computer) in past 3 Fiscals are as set-out below: (₹ in million) Particulars As on March 31, 2025 As on March 31, 2024 As on March 31, 2023 Investment in new equipment 616.03 929.71 298.81 If we are unable to respond or adapt to changing trends and standards in technologies and equipment, or otherwise adapt our technologies and equipment to changes in market conditions or requirements, in a timely manner and at a reasonable cost, we may not be able to compete effectively and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. 58. Competition from other materials or changes in the products or manufacturing processes of customers that use our steel products, could reduce market prices and demand for steel products and thereby reduce our cash flow and profitability. In many applications, steel competes with other materials that may be used as substitutes, such as aluminum (particularly in the automobile industry), cement, composites, glass, plastic and wood. Government regulatory initiatives mandating or creating incentives for the use of such materials in lieu of steel, whether for environmental or other reasons, as well as the development of other new substitutes for steel products, could significantly reduce market prices and demand for steel products and thereby reduce our cash flow and profitability. In addition, the steel market is characterized by evolving technology standards that require improved quality, changing customer specifications and wide fluctuations in product supply and demand. There is a dependence on modernized technologies for steel manufacturing equipment being imported from other countries (Source: CRISIL Report). The products or manufacturing processes of the customers that use our steel products may change from time to time due to improved technologies or product enhancements. These changes may require us to develop new products and enhancements for our existing products to keep pace with evolving industry standards and changing customer requirements. If we cannot keep pace with market changes and produce steel products that meet our customers’ specifications and quality standards in a timely and cost-effective manner, our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be materially adversely affected. 59. We may be unable to comply with changes in environmental, health and safety, labour laws and other applicable regulations. We are subject to various laws and regulations in relation to environmental protection, such as the Water Act, Air Act, as well as environmental laws and regulations, health and safety laws, and labour laws. These laws and regulations impose controls on air and water discharge, noise levels, storage handling, employee exposure to hazardous substances and other aspects of our manufacturing operations. We are also subject to the laws and regulations governing employees, including in relation to minimum wage and maximum working hours, overtime, working conditions, hiring and termination of employees, contract labour and work permits. For details on such regulations and policies applicable to our business, see “Key Regulations and Policies in India” beginning on page 246 of this DRHP. Laws and regulations may limit the amount of hazardous and pollutant discharge that our manufacturing facilities may release into the air, soil and water. The discharge of materials that are chemical in nature or of other hazardous substances into the air, soil or water beyond these limits may cause us to be liable to regulatory bodies or third parties. Any of the foregoing could subject us to litigation, which could increase contingent costs, require considerable attention from the management, and adversely affect our reputation in the event we were found liable. Additionally, the government or the relevant regulatory bodies may require us to shut down our manufacturing 66facilities, which in turn could lead to product shortages that delay or prevent us from fulfilling our obligations to customers. Furthermore, in the event our manufacturing activities are shut down or suspended, we may continue to incur costs including those incurred to comply with regulations, appeal regulatory decisions, and compensate our workforce. 60. Our business prospects and continued growth depends on our ability to access financing at competitive rates and competitive terms, which amongst other factors is dependent on our credit rating. We may not be able to avail the requisite amount of financing or obtain financing at competitive interest rates for our growth plans and cannot assure that we will obtain the desired credit ratings of our Company, in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our business depends on our ability to obtain funds at competitive rates. The cost and availability of capital, amongst other factors, is also dependent on our current and future results of operations and financial condition, our ability to effectively manage risks, our brand and our credit ratings. We may not be able to avail the requisite amount of financing or obtain financing at competitive interest rates if we fail to have favourable results of operations. While ratings reflect a rating agency’s opinion of a company’s financial strength, operating performance, strategic position, and ability to meet its obligations, currently, we have not obtained any credit ratings. Such absence of credit ratings could lead to high borrowing costs and limit our access to capital and lending markets and, as a result, could adversely affect our business. Post this Issue, our Promoters and Promoter Group will continue to hold majority shares in our Company. 61. Orders placed by customers may be delayed, modified or cancelled, which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further any defaults or delays in payment by a significant portion of our customers, may have an adverse effect on cash flows, results of operations and financial condition. We may encounter problems in executing the orders in relation to our products, or executing it on a timely basis. Moreover, factors beyond our control or the control of our customers may postpone the delivery of such products or cause its cancellation. Due to the possibility of cancellations or changes in scope and schedule of delivery of such products, resulting from our customers discretion or problems we encounter in the delivery of such products or reasons outside our control or the control of our customers, we cannot predict with certainty when, if or to what extent we may be able to deliver the orders placed. Additionally, delays in the delivery of such products can lead to customers delaying or refusing to pay the amount, in part or full, that we expect to be paid in respect of such products. In addition, even where a delivery proceeds as scheduled, it is possible that the customers may default or otherwise fail to pay amounts owed. In the ordinary course of business, we extend credit to our customers. Consequently, we are exposed to the risk of the uncertainty regarding the receipt of the outstanding amounts. For the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 our trade receivables were ₹ 711.79 million, ₹ 214.48 million and ₹137.72 million constituting 8.69%, 3.41% and 2.49%, respectively, of revenue from operations. Our results of operations and profitability depend on the credit worthiness of our customers. Certain of these customers may have weak credit histories and we cannot assure that these counterparties will always be able to pay us in a timely fashion, or at all. Any adverse change in the financial condition of our customers may adversely affect their ability to make payments to us. Default or delays in payments by a significant portion of our customers may have an adverse effect on cash flows, results of operations and financial condition. 62. We could be harmed by employee misconduct or errors that are difficult to detect and any such incidences could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and reputation. Employee misconduct or errors could expose us to business risks or losses, including regulatory sanctions and cause serious harm to our reputation. There can be no assurance that we will be able to detect or deter such misconduct. Moreover, the precautions we take to prevent and detect such activity may not be effective in all cases. Our employees and agents may also commit errors that could subject us to claims and proceedings for alleged negligence, as well as regulatory actions on account of which our business, financial condition, results of operations and goodwill could be adversely affected. 63. We have presented certain supplemental information of our performance and liquidity which is not prepared under or required under Ind AS. This Draft Red Herring Prospectus includes Net Asset Value per Equity Share, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Profit After Tax, Profit After Tax Margin, Net Cashflow from Operations/EBITDA, Capital Employed, Return on Equity, Return on Capital Employed, Debt to Equity Ratio and Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio (collectively “Non-GAAP Measures”) and certain other industry measures related to our operations and financial performance, which are supplemental measures of our performance and liquidity and are not required by, or presented in accordance with, 67Ind AS, IFRS or U.S. GAAP. For further details in relation to reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures, see “Other Financial Information” on page 341. Further, these Non-GAAP Measures and industry measures are not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under Ind AS, IFRS or U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, profit/ (loss) for the years/ period or any other measure of financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities derived in accordance with Ind AS, IFRS or U.S. GAAP. In addition, such Non-GAAP Measures and industry measures are not standardized terms, and may vary from any standard methodology that is applicable across the Indian financial services industry, and therefore may not be comparable with financial or industry related statistical information of similar nomenclature computed and presented by other companies, and hence a direct comparison of these Non-GAAP Measures and industry measures between companies may not be possible. Other companies may calculate these Non-GAAP Measures and industry measures differently from us, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Although such Non-GAAP Measures and industry measures are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with applicable accounting standards, our Company’s management believes that they are useful to an investor in evaluating us as they are widely used measures to evaluate a company’s operating performance. These Non-GAAP Measures and other statistical and other information relating to our operations and financial performance may not be computed on the basis of any standard methodology that is applicable across the industry and therefore may not be comparable to financial measures and statistical information of similar nomenclature that may be computed and presented by other companies and are not measures of operating performance or liquidity defined by Ind AS and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. 64. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as Indian GAAP, IFRS and U.S. GAAP, which may be material to investors’ assessments of our financial condition, result of operations and cash flows. Our restated summary statements of assets and liabilities, restated summary statements of profit and loss (including other comprehensive income), cash flows and changes in equity for Fiscals March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 have been prepared in accordance with the Ind AS. We have not attempted to quantify the impact of US GAAP, IFRS or any other system of accounting principles on the financial data included in this DRHP, nor do we provide a reconciliation of our financial statements to those of US GAAP, IFRS or any other accounting principles. US GAAP and IFRS differ in significant respects from Ind AS and Indian GAAP. Accordingly, the degree to which the Restated Financial Statements included in this DRHP will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Ind AS, Indian GAAP and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in this DRHP should accordingly be limited. 65. Pursuant to listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to pre-emptive surveillance measures like Additional Surveillance Measure (ASM) and Graded Surveillance Measures (GSM) by the Stock Exchanges in order to enhance market integrity and safeguard the interest of investors. SEBI and the Stock Exchanges have introduced various pre-emptive surveillance measures in order to enhance market integrity and safeguard the interests of investors, including ASM and GSM. ASM and GSM are imposed on securities of companies based on various objective criteria such as significant variations in price and volume, concentration of certain customer accounts as a percentage of combined trading volume, average delivery, securities which witness abnormal price rise not commensurate with financial health and fundamentals such as earnings, book value, fixed assets, net worth, price / earnings multiple and market capitalization. Upon listing, the trading of our Equity Shares would be subject to differing market conditions as well as other factors which may result in high volatility in price, low trading volumes, and a large concentration of customer accounts as a percentage of combined trading volume of our Equity Shares. The occurrence of any of the abovementioned factors or other circumstances may trigger any of the parameters prescribed by SEBI and the Stock Exchanges for placing our securities under the GSM and/or ASM framework or any other surveillance measures, which could result in significant restrictions on trading of our Equity Shares being imposed by SEBI and the Stock Exchanges. These restrictions may include requiring higher margin requirements, requirement of settlement on a trade for trade basis without netting off, limiting trading frequency, reduction of applicable price band, requirement of settlement on gross basis or freezing of price on upper side of trading, as well as mentioning of our Equity Shares on the surveillance dashboards of the Stock Exchanges. The imposition of these restrictions and curbs on trading may have an adverse effect on market price, trading and liquidity of our Equity Shares and on the reputation and conditions of our Company. 68EXTERNAL RISKS 66. Our business is substantially affected by prevailing economic, political and other prevailing conditions in India and globally. Our Company is incorporated in India, and our manufacturing operations are located in India. Our business and results of operations have been and continue to be affected by international, national and regional economic conditions. Unfavourable economic conditions in India or any of our key markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. As a result, we are highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and the other key markets and our results of operations and cash flows are significantly affected by factors influencing the economy in India and such key markets. Factors that may adversely affect the economy in such countries, and hence our results of operations and cash flows, may include: • any adverse change in the growth rate of the global economy; • any increase in interest rates or inflation; • any exchange rate fluctuations; • any scarcity of credit or other financing, resulting in an adverse impact on economic conditions and scarcity of financing for our expansions; • prevailing income conditions among consumers and corporates; • volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on, the relevant market’s principal stock exchanges; • changes in tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies, including import restrictions; • political instability, terrorism or military conflict in the region or globally, including in various neighbouring countries; • occurrence of natural or man-made disasters; • prevailing regional or global economic conditions, including in the relevant country’s principal export markets; • any downgrading of debt rating by a domestic or international rating agency; • instability in financial markets; and • other significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting the relevant country. In particular, rates of economic growth have significant impacts on our consumers of steel and intermediate products, such as the automotive, infrastructure and the construction industries and declines in steel consumption caused by poor or unfavorable economic conditions in one or more of our major markets or by the deterioration of the financial condition of our key customers would have a material adverse effect on demand for our products and hence on our business and results of operations. 67. Our business is dependent on the performance of the building and construction, infrastructure, engineering and related sectors where our products are utilized. Uncertainty regarding the building and construction, infrastructure sector, economic conditions and other factors beyond our control could adversely affect demand for our products, our costs of doing business and our financial performance. Our products are primarily used in the building and construction, infrastructure and related sectors. Adverse conditions in or uncertainty about these markets, or the economy could adversely impact our end-customers’ confidence or financial condition, causing the reduction of demand for our products or delay in purchasing or payment for those products. The performance of these sectors, and consequently the demand for our products in these sectors, are dependent on economic and other factors such as government policies, regulations and budgetary allocations as well as investments made in these industries and sectors. The financial performance of the end users of our products and any adverse developments that affect the steel industry and the building and construction, infrastructure and other related sectors where our products are used may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. 6968. Political, economic or other factors that are beyond our control may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. The Indian economy and its securities markets are influenced by economic developments and volatility in securities markets in other countries. Investors’ reactions to developments in one country may have adverse effects on the market price of securities of companies located elsewhere, including India. Adverse economic developments, such as rising fiscal or trade deficit, in other emerging markets may also affect investor confidence and cause increased volatility in Indian securities markets and indirectly affect the Indian economy in general. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and restrict our access to capital, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of our Equity Shares. Any financial disruption could have an adverse effect on our business, future financial performance, shareholders’ equity and the price of our Equity Shares. We are dependent on domestic, regional and global economic and market conditions, where some of our revenue from operations is generated. Our performance, growth and market price of our Equity Shares are and will be dependent to a large extent on the health of the economy in which we operate. There have been periods of slowdown in the economic growth of India. Demand for our products may be adversely affected by an economic downturn in domestic and regional economies, movements in key imports, global economic uncertainty and liquidity crisis, volatility in exchange currency rates. Consequently, any future slowdown in the Indian economy could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Also, a change in the government or a change in the economic and deregulation policies could adversely affect economic conditions prevailing in the areas in which we operate in general and our business in particular and high rates of inflation in India could increase our costs without proportionately increasing our revenues, and as such decrease our operating margins. 69. Natural or man-made disasters, fires, epidemics, pandemics, acts of war, terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other events could materially and adversely affect our business. Natural disasters (such as typhoons, flooding and earthquakes), epidemics, pandemics and man-made disasters, including acts of war, terrorist attacks and other events, many of which are beyond our control, may lead to economic instability, including in India or globally, which may in turn materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our operations may be adversely affected by fires, natural disasters and/or severe weather, which can result in damage to our property or inventory and generally reduce our productivity and may require us to evacuate personnel and suspend operations. Any terrorist attacks or civil unrest as well as other adverse social, economic and political events in India or states to who we sell our products could have a negative effect on us. Such incidents could also create a greater perception that investment in Indian companies involves a higher degree of risk and could have an adverse effect on our business and the price of the Equity Shares thereby resulting in a material adverse effect on our business and the trading price of the Equity Shares. 70. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including the withdrawal of certain benefits or adverse application of tax laws, may adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and cash flows. Further, failure to comply with the existing laws and regulations applicable to our business could subject our Company to enforcement actions and penalties and otherwise harm our business. In India, our business is governed by various laws and regulations relating to environment, employment and tax. For details, see “Key Regulations and Policies in India” on page 246 of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. Any failure or alleged failure to comply with the applicable laws, regulations or requirements could subject us to inspection, enforcement actions and penalties imposed by authorities. Our business could be adversely affected by any change in laws particularly changes in environment and industrial regulations, municipal plans or interpretation of existing laws, or promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations applicable to us. Any political instability in India, such as corruption, scandals and protests against certain economic reforms, which have occurred in the past, could slow the pace of liberalization and deregulation. The rate of economic liberalization could change, and specific laws and policies affecting foreign investment, currency exchange rates and other matters affecting investment in India could change as well. High social costs, slow statutory clearances for plant set up and other activities creates a barrier while attracting investments from foreign players to expand in India (Source: CRISIL Report). There can be no assurance that the Government of India may not implement new regulations and policies which will require us to obtain approvals and licenses from the Government of India and other regulatory bodies or impose onerous requirements and conditions on our operations. Any such changes and the related uncertainties with respect to the applicability, interpretation and implementation of any amendment or change to governing laws, regulation or policy in the jurisdictions in which we operate may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial 70condition, results of operations and cash flows in addition, we may have to incur expenditures to comply with the requirements of any new regulations, which may also materially harm our results of operations and cash flows. Any unfavourable changes to the laws and regulations applicable to us could also subject us to additional liabilities. In addition, unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations including foreign investment laws governing our business, operations and group structure could result in us being deemed to be in contravention of such laws or may require us to apply for additional approvals. We may incur increased costs and other burdens relating to compliance with such new requirements, which may also require significant management time and other resources, and any failure to comply may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and prospects. Uncertainty in the applicability, interpretation or implementation of any amendment to, or change in, governing law, regulation or policy, including by reason of an absence, or a limited body, of administrative or judicial precedent may be time consuming as well as costly for us to resolve and may affect the viability of our current business or restrict our ability to grow our business in the future. 71. A downgrade in ratings of India, may affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. Our borrowing costs and our access to the debt capital markets depend significantly on the credit ratings of India. Any further adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings for domestic and international debt by international rating agencies may adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing and the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such financing is available, including raising any overseas additional financing. A downgrading of India’s credit ratings may occur, for example, upon a change of government tax or fiscal policy, which are outside our control. This could have an adverse effect on our ability to fund our growth on favourable terms or at all, and consequently adversely affect our business and financial performance and the price of the Equity Shares. 72. If inflation were to rise in India, we might not be able to increase the prices of our products at a proportional rate in order to pass costs on to our customers thereby reducing our margins. Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue in the future. India has experienced high inflation in the recent past. Increased inflation can contribute to an increase in interest rates and increased costs to our business, including increased costs of wages, costs of rent and other expenses relevant to our business. High fluctuations in inflation rates may make it more difficult for us to accurately estimate or control our costs. Any increase in inflation in India can increase our expenses, which we may not be able to adequately pass on to our customers, whether entirely or in part, and may adversely affect our business and financial condition. In particular, we might not be able to reduce our costs or increase the price of our products to pass the increase in costs on to our customers. In such case, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition may be adversely affected. Further, there can be no assurance that Indian inflation levels will not worsen in the future. 73. A third-party could be prevented from acquiring control of us post this Offer, because of anti-takeover provisions under Indian Law. As a listed Indian entity, there are provisions in Indian law that may delay, deter or prevent a future takeover or change in control of our Company. Under the Takeover Regulations, an acquirer has been defined as any person who, directly or indirectly, acquires or agrees to acquire shares or voting rights or control over a company, whether individually or acting in concert with others. Although these provisions have been formulated to ensure that interests of investors/shareholders are protected, these provisions may also discourage a third party from attempting to take control of our Company subsequent to completion of the Offer. Consequently, even if a potential takeover of our Company would result in the purchase of the Equity Shares at a premium to their market price or would otherwise be beneficial to our shareholders, such a takeover may not be attempted or consummated because of Takeover Regulations. 74. We may be affected by competition law in India and any adverse application or interpretation of the Competition Act could in turn adversely affect our business. The Competition Act was enacted for the purpose of preventing practices that have or are likely to have an adverse effect on competition in India and has mandated the Competition Commission of India to regulate such practices. Under the Competition Act, any arrangement, understanding or action, whether formal or informal, which causes or is likely to cause an appreciable adverse effect on competition is void and attracts substantial penalties. Further, any agreement among competitors which, directly or indirectly, involves determination of purchase or sale prices, limits or controls production, or shares the market by way of geographical area or number of subscribers in 71the relevant market are presumed to have an appreciable adverse effect in the relevant market in India and shall be void. The Competition Act also prohibits abuse of a dominant position by any enterprise. The Competition Commission of India (Procedure in regard to the transaction of business relating to combinations) Regulations (“Combination Regulations") require acquisitions of shares, voting rights, assets or control or mergers or amalgamations that cross the prescribed asset and turnover based thresholds to be mandatorily notified to, and pre- approved by, the Competition Commission of India. The Competition Act aims to, among other things, prohibit all agreements and transactions which may have an appreciable adverse effect in India. Consequently, all agreements entered into by us could be within the purview of the Competition Act. Further, the Competition Commission of India has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any agreements, abusive conduct or combination occurring outside of India if such agreement, conduct or combination has an appreciable adverse effect in India. However, the impact of the provisions of the Competition Act on the agreements entered into by us cannot be predicted with certainty at this stage. We do not have any outstanding notices in relation to noncompliance with the Competition Act or the agreements entered into by us. The Government of India has also passed the Competition (Amendment) Act, 2023 on April 11, 2023, which has made several amendments to the Competition Act. These amendments include the introduction of deal value thresholds for assessing whether a merger or acquisition qualifies as a "combination", expedited merger review timelines, codification of the lowest standard of control" and enhanced penalties for providing false information or a failure to provide material information. Such amendment to the Competition Act will result in additional costs for compliance, which in turn may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and prospects. 75. Investors may not be able to enforce judgments obtained in foreign courts against us. We are a public limited company under the laws of India. All of our directors and officers are Indian nationals and all or a significant portion of the assets of all of the directors and officers and a substantial portion of our assets are located in India. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process outside India on us or on such directors or officers or to enforce judgments against them obtained from courts outside India, including judgments predicated on the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws. India has reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters with only a limited number of jurisdictions, which includes the United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Singapore and Hong Kong. In order to be enforceable, a judgment from a jurisdiction with reciprocity must meet certain requirements of the Indian Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (the “Civil Code”). The Civil Code only permits the enforcement of monetary decrees, not being in the nature of any amounts payable in respect of taxes, other charges, fines or penalties. Judgments or decrees from jurisdictions which do not have reciprocal recognition with India cannot be enforced by proceedings in execution in India. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any court in a non-reciprocating territory for civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the general laws of the non- reciprocating territory, would not be enforceable in India. Even if an investor obtained a judgment in such a jurisdiction against us, our officers or directors, it may be required to institute a new proceeding in India and obtain a decree from an Indian court. However, the party in whose favour such final judgment is rendered may bring a fresh suit in a competent court in India based on a final judgment that has been obtained in a non-reciprocating territory within three years of obtaining such final judgment. It is unlikely that an Indian court would award damages on the same basis or to the same extent as was awarded in a final judgment rendered by a court in another jurisdiction if the Indian court believed that the amount of damages awarded was excessive or inconsistent with public policy in India. In addition, any person seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain prior approval of the Reserve Bank of India to repatriate any amount recovered pursuant to the execution of the judgment. Risks in relation to the Equity Shares 76. The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares by the Promoter Selling Shareholders may be less than the Offer Price. The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares by the Promoter Selling Shareholders may be less than the Offer Price, which will be decided by our Company in consultation with the BRLMs. The details of the average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares held by the Promoter Selling Shareholders are set out below: Number of Equity Shares of Average cost of acquisition per Equity Promoter Selling Shareholder face value of ₹ 10 each Share (in ₹)* Ravi Singhal 2,08,50,240 2.82 Nisha Singhal 78,40,000 2.31 72For further details regarding the weighted average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares by the Promoter Selling Shareholders and build-up of Equity Shares of the Promoter Selling Shareholders in our Company, see “Summary of Offer Document - Average cost of acquisition of shares by our Promoters (including the Promoter Selling Shareholders)” and “Capital Structure - Build-up of Promoters’ shareholding in our Company” on pages 34 and 112, respectively. 77. Our Company has issued Equity Shares during the preceding one year at a price that may be below the Offer Price. In the preceding one year from the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, our Company has issued Equity Shares at a price that may be lower than the Offer Price. The price at which Equity Shares have been issued by our Company in the preceding one year is not indicative of the price at which they will be issued or traded after listing. For details on such allotments, see “Capital Structure” on page 93. 78. Any future issuance of Equity Shares may dilute your shareholding and sale of our Equity Shares by our Promoters or other major shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. Any future equity issuances by us, including a primary offering, may lead to the dilution of investors' shareholdings in our Company. Any future equity issuances by us or sales of our Equity Shares by our Promoters or other major shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares, which may lead to other adverse consequences for us including difficulty in raising debt-financing. In addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur may also affect the trading price of our Equity Shares. 79. Holders of Equity Shares may be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian law and thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position. Under the Companies Act, 2013 a company incorporated in India must offer its equity shareholders pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of equity shares to maintain their existing ownership percentages prior to issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have been waived by the adoption of a special resolution by shareholders of such company. However, if the law of the jurisdiction that you are in does not permit the exercise of such pre-emptive rights without our filing an offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in such jurisdiction, you will be unable to exercise such pre-emptive rights, unless we make such a filing. To the extent that you are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in respect of the Equity Shares, your proportional interests in our Company may be reduced. 80. The Equity Shares have never been publicly traded, and, after the Offer, the Equity Shares may experience price and volume fluctuations, and an active trading market for the Equity Shares may not develop. Further, the price of the Equity Shares may be volatile, and you may be unable to resell the Equity Shares at or above the Offer Price, or at all. Prior to the Offer, there has been no public market for the Equity Shares, and an active trading market on the Stock Exchanges may not develop or be sustained after the Offer. Listing and quotation does not guarantee that a market for the Equity Shares will develop, or if developed, the liquidity of such market for the Equity Shares. The Offer Price of the Equity Shares is proposed to be determined through a book-building process and may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares at the time of commencement of trading of the Equity Shares or at any time thereafter. The market price of the Equity Shares may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors, variations in operating results of our Company, market conditions specific to the industry we operate in, developments relating to India, volatility in securities markets in jurisdictions other than India, variations in the growth rate of financial indicators, variations in revenue or earnings estimates by research publications, and changes in economic. legal and other regulatory factors. 81. Investors may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of income arising from distribution of dividend and sale of the Equity Shares. Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares in an Indian company is generally taxable in India. A securities transaction tax (“STT”) is levied on and collected by an Indian stock exchange on which equity shares are sold. Stamp duty for transfer of certain securities, other than debentures, on a delivery basis is currently specified at 0.015% and on a non-delivery basis is specified at 0.003% of the consideration amount. Any gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for more than 12 months may 73be subject to long term capital gains tax in India at the specified rates depending on certain factors, such as whether STT is paid, the quantum of gains and any available treaty exemptions. Accordingly, you may be subject to payment of long-term capital gains tax in India, in addition to payment of STT, on the sale of any Equity Shares held for more than 12 months. Furthermore, any gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less will be subject to short term capital gains tax in India. Earlier, distribution of dividends by a domestic company was subject to Dividend Distribution Tax (“DDT”), in the hands of the company and such dividends were generally exempt from tax in the hands of the shareholders. However, the government of India has amended the Income Tax Act, 1961 to abolish the DDT regime. Under the extant provisions, any dividend distributed by a domestic company is subject to tax in the hands of the concerned shareholder at the applicable rates. Additionally, the company distributing dividends is required to withhold tax on such payments at the applicable rate. However, non-resident shareholders may claim benefit of the applicable tax treaty, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. Furthermore, if non-resident shareholders of entities holding the Equity Shares exit by way of sale or redemption of the shares held by them abroad in such entities, such non-resident shareholders could be taxed on capital gains in India if the offshore shares derive substantial value from Indian assets, subject to certain exemptions. Capital gains arising from the sale of the Equity Shares will be exempt from taxation in India only in limited situations and generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit India’s ability to impose tax on capital gains. As a result, residents of other countries may be liable for tax in India as well as in their own jurisdiction on a gain upon the sale of the Equity Shares. Similarly, any business income realized from the transfer of Equity Shares held as trading assets is taxable at the applicable tax rates subject to any treaty relief, if applicable, to a non-resident seller. Our Company cannot predict whether any tax laws or other regulations impacting it will be enacted, or predict the nature and impact of any such laws or regulations or whether, if at all, any laws or regulations would have a material adverse effect on our Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Investors should consult their own tax advisors about the consequences of investing in or trading in Equity Shares. 82. Foreign investors are subject to foreign investment restrictions under Indian law, which may adversely affect the market price of the Equity Shares. Under the exchange control regulations currently in force in India, transfers of shares between non-residents and residents are freely permitted (subject to certain restrictions) if they comply with the pricing guidelines and reporting requirements specified by the Reserve Bank of India. If the transfer of shares is not in compliance with such pricing guidelines or reporting requirements or falls under any of the exceptions referred to above, then the approval of the Reserve Bank of India will be required for such transaction to be valid. Additionally, shareholders who seek to convert Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign currency and repatriate that foreign currency from India require a no-objection or a tax clearance certificate from the Indian income tax authorities. Further, in accordance with Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020 issued by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India (formerly known as Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion)and the Foreign Exchange Management (Non- debt Instruments) Amendment Rules, 2020 which came into effect from April 22, 2020, any investment, subscription, purchase or sale of equity instruments by entities of a country which shares a land border with India or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country, will require prior approval of the Government of India, as prescribed in the Consolidated FDI Policy and the FEMA Rules. These investment restrictions shall also apply to subscribers of offshore derivative instruments. Neither the Consolidated FDI Policy nor the FEMA Rules provide a definition of the term "beneficial owner". The interpretation of "beneficial owner" and enforcement of this regulatory change may differ in practice, which may have an adverse effect on our ability to raise foreign capital. We cannot assure you that any required approval from the Reserve Bank of India or any other governmental agency can be obtained on any particular terms or at all. For further details, see “Restrictions on Foreign Ownership of Indian Securities” beginning on page 447. 83. QIBs and Non-Institutional Investors are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid, and Retail Individual Investors are not permitted to withdraw their Bids after Bid/Offer Closing Date. Pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Regulations, Qualified Institutional Buyers and Non-Institutional Investors are required to pay the Bid Amount on submission of the Bid and are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid. Similarly, Retail Individual Investors can revise or withdraw their Bids at any time during the Bid Offer Period and until the Bid Offer Closing Date, but not thereafter. Therefore, Qualified Institutional Buyers and Non-Institutional Investors will not be able to withdraw or lower their Bids following adverse developments in international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic conditions, our business, results of operations or otherwise at any stage after the submission of their Bids. 7484. Fluctuation in the exchange rate of the Rupee and other currencies could have an adverse effect on the value of our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results. Subject to requisite approvals, on listing, our Equity Shares will be quoted in Rupees on the Stock Exchanges. Any dividends, if declared, in respect of our Equity Shares will be paid in Rupees and subsequently converted into the relevant foreign currency for repatriation, if required. Any adverse movement in exchange rates during the time that it takes to undertake such conversion may reduce the net dividend to such investors. In addition, any adverse movement in exchange rates during a delay in repatriating the proceeds from a sale of Equity Shares outside India, for example, because of a delay in regulatory approvals that may be required for the sale of Equity Shares may reduce the net proceeds received by shareholders. The exchange rate of the Rupee has changed substantially in the last two decades and could fluctuate substantially in the future, which may have a material adverse effect on the value of the Equity Shares and returns from the Equity Shares, independent of our operating results. 85. Investors will not be able to sell immediately on an Indian stock exchange any of the Equity Shares they purchase in the Offer. Subject to requisite approvals, the Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchanges. Pursuant to applicable Indian laws, certain actions must be completed before the Equity Shares can be listed and trading in the Equity Shares may commence. Investors’ book entry, or ‘demat’ accounts with depository participants in India, are expected to be credited within one working day of the date on which the Basis of Allotment is approved by the Stock Exchanges. The Allotment of Equity Shares in this Issue and the credit of such Equity Shares to the applicant’s demat account with depository participant could take approximately two Working Days from the Bid / Offer Closing Date and trading in the Equity Shares upon receipt of final listing and trading approvals from the Stock Exchanges is expected to commence within three Working Days of the Bid/Offer Closing Date. There could be a failure or delay in listing of the Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges. Any failure or delay in obtaining the approval or otherwise commence trading in the Equity Shares would restrict investors’ ability to dispose of their Equity Shares. There can be no assurance that the Equity Shares will be credited to investors’ demat accounts, or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence, within the time periods specified in this risk factor. We could also be required to pay interest at the applicable rates if allotment is not made, refund orders are not dispatched or demat credits are not made to investors within the prescribed time periods. For further details, see “Offer Procedure” on page 426. 75SECTION III-INTRODUCTION THE OFFER The following table sets forth the details of the Offer: Offer of Equity Shares (1)(2)^ Up to 17,891,000 Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 10 each, aggregating up to ₹ [•] million of which: Fresh Issue (1)^ Up to 16,084,000 Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 10 each, aggregating up to ₹ [•] million.

Funding part of the capital expenditure requirements towards setting-up of Solar Power Project Rationale for the Solar Power Project: Our manufacturing plant is located at Vill.: Temtema, Tehsil. Kharsia, Distt.: Raigarh, in the State of Chattisgarh. We are successfully operating our Sponge Iron Unit, Induction Furnace with Continuous Casting and Ferro Alloy unit and Rolling mill to manufacture TMT Bars. Capacity of Existing Products is as below: Sl. No. Products Existing Capacities Location 1 Sponge Iron 1,20,000 MT/year Village Temtema, Post – Robertson, 2 M S Billets 1,00,000 MT/year Tehsil – Kharsia, 3 TMT Bars 95,000 MT/Year District – Rajgarh 4 Ferro Alloys 30,000 MT/year Chhattisgarh 5 Captive Power Plant being the Waste 8MW-WHRB Heat Recovery Boiler (WHRB) 6 Captive Power Plant being the 12 MW-AFBC 135Sl. No. Products Existing Capacities Location Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion (AFBC) A key component of our forward-looking strategy is to enhance our operational efficiency, reduce our carbon footprint, and secure our long-term energy requirements by establishing a 50 MWp Captive Solar Power Plant. Given that steel manufacturing is a highly energy-intensive process requiring a substantial and reliable power supply, this initiative is designed to mitigate the impact of rising and volatile grid electricity tariffs, thereby ensuring cost competitiveness and sustainability. The electricity generated by the proposed solar power plant will be supplied into the local government’s grid. In return, the government will credit the generated power towards the electricity consumption of our manufacturing plant at Raigarh. This arrangement will help to reduce the overall electricity costs for the plant, as the energy produced by the solar power system will be used to offset the manufacturing plant’s electricity bill. This is expected to not only result in cost savings but also improves energy efficiency and sustainability in our operations. We anticipate a significant saving of approximately ₹7.50 per unit (kWh) on our power costs post-commissioning. To validate the project's viability, we commissioned a detailed Techno-Economic Viability (TEV) Study Report, which was prepared by MPCON Limited, a professionally managed technical consultancy organization promoted by apex Financial Institutions, PSU Banks and various state government corporations. The proposed Solar Power capacity of 50 MWp is being set up through three Solar Plants in following locations in Chhattisgarh as detailed below: • 9 MWp at Village-Raunda, Tehsil- Dhamdha, Dist.- Durg, Chhattisgarh • 19 MWp at Village- Keshdabri, Tehsil- Baloda Bazar, Dist.- Baloda Bazar, Chhattisgarh • 22 MWp at Village: Mopka Tehsil Bhatapara Distt.: Balodabazar- Bhatapara, Chhattisgarh The aggregate Cost of Solar Power Plant & Means of Finance is as under: Cost of Project: Total Sl.

Repayment and/or pre-payment, of borrowings Our Company has entered into certain financing arrangements with banks and financial institutions. For details of our Company’s secured and unsecured borrowings as on August 31, 2025, see “Financial Indebtedness” beginning on page 344. Our Company proposes to utilise an estimated amount of up to ₹ 1200 million out of the Net Proceeds towards repayment and/or pre-payment of certain existing borrowings availed by our Company. Further, our Company shall pay the prepayment charges, if any, on the loans identified below, out of the portion of Net Proceeds earmarked for this Object. In the event the Net Proceeds are insufficient for payment of pre-payment penalty or accrued interest, as applicable, such payment shall be made from the internal accruals of our Company. Further, the amounts outstanding under the borrowings of our Company as well as the sanctioned limits are dependent on several factors and may vary with our Company’s business cycle with multiple intermediate repayments, drawdowns and enhancement of sanctioned limits. However, our Company confirms that the aggregate amount to be utilised from the Net Proceeds towards pre-payment and/or scheduled repayment of its existing borrowings (including re- financed or additional borrowings availed, if any), in part or full, will not exceed ₹1200 million. We may choose to repay and/or pre-pay certain borrowings availed by us, other than those identified in the table below, which may include additional borrowings we may avail after the filing of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. Given the nature of these borrowings and the terms of repayment/pre-payment, the aggregate outstanding borrowing amounts may vary from time to time.

We believe that the pre-payment or scheduled repayment will help reduce our existing borrowings, assist us in maintaining a favourable debt-equity ratio and enable utilisation of our internal accruals for further investment in business growth and expansion. In addition, we believe that this will improve our debt-equity ratio, enabling us to raise further resources in the future at competitive rates to fund potential business development opportunities and plans to grow and expand our business in the future.

The pandemic-induced lockdowns led to a 5.8% decline in GDP in fiscal 2021, but the post-pandemic scenario has been positive, starting with a 9.7% on-year growth in fiscal 2022 led by the manufacturing and construction sectors. India’s Real GDP trend (at constant 2011-2012 prices) For FY24RE: Revised Estimate, FY25PE: Provisional Estimated; FY30P: Projected; FY: Fiscal year Source: National Statistical Office (NSO), Crisil Intelligence India’s real GDP is estimated to have grown 9.2% on-year in fiscal 2024 compared with 7.6% the previous fiscal. Although there will be support from the demand side on account of a normal monsoon and easing inflation, the second advance estimate has projected growth to slow to 6.5% in fiscal 2025. Manufacturing is projected to experience the sharpest decline, with growth estimates dropping from 12.3% to 4.5%. Other major contributors to GDP, such as trade and hotels, and financial services and real estate, are also likely to grow slower. On the demand side, investment (gross fixed capital formation) is expected to cool moderately this fiscal (7.1% on-year this fiscal vs 8.8% the previous fiscal). Private consumption is expected to increase. Private consumption expenditure is predicted to grow to 7.2% this fiscal vs 5.6% last fiscal. Government consumption expenditure is expected to grow slower this fiscal by 2.3% on-year compared with 8.1% last fiscal and punch below its weight in overall GDP. India’s net exports are poised to improve significantly compared with the previous fiscal. This optimism stems from a robust export growth forecast of 6.3%, a substantial increase from the 2.2% growth recorded last fiscal. On the other hand, imports are expected to contract in stark contrast to the 13.8% growth seen in the previous fiscal. This divergence in export and import trends is likely to boost India’s net exports, thereby supporting the trade balance. The improvement in exports can be attributed to the government’s efforts to enhance competitiveness and diversify export markets. Meanwhile, the decline in imports reflects its initiative to promote domestic production and reduce dependence on foreign goods. 1 Statistics from second advance estimates of gross domestic product 2024-25 164 3.541 9.631 2.051 6.161 5.671 0.881 5.752 Rs trillion FY20-FY25 CAGR: 5.3% FY25-FY30P CAGR: 6.5% 280.0 12.0% 9.7% 9.2% 7.6% 240.0 6.5% 6.5% 8.0% 200.0 3.… 4.0% 160.0 120.0 0.0% 80.0 -4.0% 40.0 -5.8% 0.0 -8.0% FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24RE FY25PE FY30P India GDP y-o-y growth(%)Yearly demand-side real GDP growth At constant 2011-12 prices FY19 FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24RE FY25PE Private consumption 7.1% 5.2% -5.3% 11.7% 7.5% 5.6% 7.2% Government consumption 6.7% 3.9% -0.8% 0.0% 4.3% 8.1% 2.3% Gross fixed capital formation 11.2% 1.1% -7.1% 17.5% 8.4% 8.8% 7.1% Exports 11.9% -3.4% -7.0% 29.6% 10.3% 2.2% 6.3% Imports 8.8% -0.8% -12.6% 22.1% 8.9% 13.8% -3.7% Source: Crisil Intelligence, National Statistical Office (NSO) For FY24RE: Revised Estimate, FY25PE: Provisional Estimated; FY: Fiscal year On-year supply-side gross value added by economic activity FY24 FY25 At basic 2011-12 price FY19 FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 P E Agriculture and allied 2.1% 6.2% 4.0% 4.6% 6.3% 2.7% 4.6% Mining and quarrying -0.8% -3.0% -8.2% 6.3% 3.4% 3.2% 2.8% Manufacturing 5.4% -3.0% 3.1% 10.0% -1.7% 12.3% 4.3% Utilities* 7.9% 2.3% -4.2% 10.3% 10.8% 8.6% 6.0% Construction 6.5% 1.6% -4.6% 19.9% 9.1% 10.4% 8.6% Services^ 7.2% 6.4% -8.4% 9.2% 10.3% 9.0% 7.3% *Utilities include electricity, gas, water supply and other utilities ^Services include those related to trade, hotels, transport, communication, broadcasting, finance, real estate, public administration, defence, and professional and other services Source: Crisil Intelligence, CSO The primary sector, comprising agriculture and mining, shows moderate but stable growth, averaging 3-4%, with notable resilience during the pandemic period. The secondary sector, encompassing manufacturing, utilities and construction, demonstrates high volatility, swinging from a contraction of -1.3% in fiscal 2020 to a robust 12.7% growth in fiscal 2022, driven primarily by the post-pandemic manufacturing recovery and construction boom. The tertiary sector, dominated by services, has performed the most consistently, maintaining growth rates between 6-10% throughout the period, except for the pandemic-induced contraction in fiscal 2021 Performance of key macroeconomic indicators India’s average Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rate remained ~4.70% between fiscals 2018 and 2022. However, in fiscal 2023, it increased to 6.70%, mainly led by surging food prices before moderating slightly to an average of 5.4% in fiscal 2024. Although core and fuel inflation numbers have remained low, the food inflation has been keeping CPI inflation above the Reserve Bank of India’s medium-level target rate of 4%. For instance, according to the CPI figures for March 2024, food inflation stood at 8.5%, primarily due to strong accelerations in inflation in foodgrains, meat and 6.7% 6.2% 5.5% 5.4% 4.8% 4.6% 4.0% 3.6% 3.4% FY18 FY19 FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY26P fish and slower pace of deflation in edible oils during the month. India’s retail inflation rate has more than halved over the past year, slipping even below the lower end of the Reserve Bank of India’s tolerance band (2%). It slid to 1.6% in July from 2.1% in June. A year ago, it stood at 3.6%. Food saw steeper deflation, while core inflation recorded a sharp decline as the impact of mobile tariff revision wore out. Food inflation stood at -1.8%, the lowest since January 2019, further down from -1.1% in June. Healthy food production and ample foods stocks are aiding softer prices. Core inflation, 165too, lent support, sharply falling to 3.9% from 4.4%, led by a substantial decrease in transport and communication inflation. Fuel inflation rose to 2.7% from 2.6%. Crisil expects inflation to moderate to 4.0% in Fiscal 2026 on account of easing food inflation. Source: National Statistical Office (NSO), Ministry of Industry and Commerce, Crisil Intelligence P: Projected India’s Index of Industrial Production (IIP) had a moderate 3.8% growth in FY19, IIP contracted by 0.8% in FY20 and sharply declined by 8.5% in FY21 due to the pandemic. However, a strong recovery was seen in FY22 with 11.4% growth. The growth rate moderated to 5.3% in FY23 and improved to 5.9% in FY24. The uptick in the index was mainly led by strong pick-up in the manufacturing of electrical equipment and basic metals. Further, an uptick in consumer durables sector aided the IIP growth. IIP growth improved to a four-month high of 3.5% on-year in July from 1.5% in JuneWhile output growth improved in the manufacturing sector (5.4% vs 3.7%), things looked up for the electricity sector for the first time in three months with positive growth (0.6% vs -1.2%). Output growth in consumer durables was at a seven-month high in July aided by softer food inflation and lower unemployment. 11.4% 5.9% 5.3% 4.4% 3.8% 4.1% -0.8% FY18 FY19 FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 -8.5% Source: NSO, Ministry of Industry and Commerce, Crisil Intelligence Correlation of steel demand growth with GDP growth Given the huge population and low level of per capita steel consumption in India, the steel industry has the potential to become a key economic growth driver. While fiscal 2020 saw a slowdown in major steel consuming sectors (automobile, construction and infrastructure), fiscal 2021 witnessed pandemic-led lockdowns, which kept the ratio of steel demand growth to GDP growth under 1. As the economy started reopening in fiscal 2022, the ratio improved to 1.2. In fiscal 2023, the ratio of steel demand growth to GDP growth further grew to 1.8 owing to recovery in economic activity from the lows of the pandemic and a strong pent-up demand from key steel consuming sectors. Despite a reduction to 1.5 in fiscal 2024 and a subsequent rise to 1.8 in fiscal 2025, the ratio/GDP multiplier managed to remain higher than the pre-pandemic levels Finished steel demand growth v/s GDP growth 20.00% 13.33% 13.68% 15.00% 11.49% 11.52% 10.00% 3.87% 5.00% 9.69% 9.20% 7.60% 6.50% 0.00% -5.29% 1.51% -5.00% -10.00% -5.78% -15.00% 0.4 0.9 1.2 1.8 1.5 1.8 -20.00% FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 GDP growth rate Finished steel demand growth rate 166Note: Figures in boxes represent steel demand growth to GDP growth multiplier.

Atmanirbhar Bharat Mission Launched in 2020, the Atmanirbhar Bharat Mission aims to make India self-reliant in manufacturing, technology, and supply chains, and foster global competitiveness. Key features: • The PLI scheme, with an outlay of Rs 1.97 trillion till March 2025, offers financial incentives to manufacturers in 14 key sectors to reduce import dependence • Railway modernisation and defence indigenisation • Government procurement policies that prioritise domestically produced components • Support to micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) through collateral-free loans and fund infusion • Inclusive development initiatives to empower rural and urban economies, creating jobs and fostering entrepreneurship Make in India The Make in India initiative was launched in 2014 to revive the manufacturing sector and boost economic growth by creating jobs and reducing import dependence. The initiative focused on 25 key sectors, including automobiles and electronics, and simplified several regulations to promote a business-friendly environment. It also allowed up to 100% FDI in many sectors and provided incentives such as tax breaks and subsidies to encourage domestic manufacturing. This led to increased FDI inflows and export competitiveness. The initiative has catalysed significant investment in electronic manufacturing, automotive and pharmaceuticals, with India becoming a hub for manufacturing FDI, which grew by 18% in fiscal 2025, reaching USD 19.04 billion compared to USD 16.12 billion in fiscal 20224. The overall FDI inflows increased to USD 81.04 billion in fiscal 2025, marking a 14% increase from USD 71.28 billion in fiscal 2024 and infrastructure projects such as industrial corridors and smart cities have been progressing to support manufacturing ecosystems.2 Key indicators of the initiative's success include a growth in installed renewable capacity to 195 GW, GVA of the processed foods sector to $28 billion and drug and pharmaceutical exports to $27.9 billion. Production-Linked Incentive scheme The government has allocated Rs 1.97 trillion under the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for 14 key sectors to enhance manufacturing capabilities and exports. The scheme aims to attract domestic and foreign investment, apply cutting-edge technology and boost exports. The objective is to make India an integral part of the global value chain, with a potential to generate significant investment and employment. The 14 sectors applicable under PLI are: (i) Mobile Manufacturing and Specified Electronic Components, (ii) Critical Key Starting Materials/Drug Intermediaries & Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, (iii) Manufacturing of Medical Devices (iv) Automobiles and Auto Components, (v) Pharmaceuticals Drugs, (vi) Specialty Steel, (vii) Telecom & Networking Products, (viii) Electronic/Technology Products, (ix) White Goods (air conditioners and light emitting diodes), (x) Food Products, (xi) Textile Products: Man- Made Fibers (MMF) segment and technical textiles, (xii) High efficiency solar photo-voltaic (PV) modules, (xiii) Advanced Chemistry Cell (ACC) Battery, and (xiv) Drones and Drone Components. The PLI scheme has witnessed investments worth Rs 1.76 trillion and employment generation, with an estimated 12 million direct and indirect jobs created. The scheme is expected to generate production/sales of Rs 16.5 trillion and exports of Rs 5.31 trillion. The scheme has benefited various sectors, including large-scale electronics manufacturing and specialty steel, with the production of mobile phones surging over 125% and exports increasing 4x since fiscal 2021. 2 India records USD 81.04 billion FDI inflow in FY 2024–25, Ministry of Commerce & Industry 167PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan The PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan, launched in October 2021, is a Rs 100 trillion initiative aimed at transforming India's infrastructure and logistics landscape. The plan integrates the efforts of 44 central ministries and 36 states/UTs, leveraging a centralised digital platform to synchronise infrastructure planning and execution. This platform brings together over 1,600 data layers, enabling seamless multi-modal connectivity across seven core areas. The plan aims create a holistic infrastructure ecosystem, supported by energy, information technology, water, and social infrastructure. Key features of the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan include digital integration through a geographic information system (GIS)-based platform, multi-modal connectivity, and the Unified Logistics Interface Platform for seamless cargo movement. A three-tier monitoring system ensures timely execution across ministries and states, while state governments integrate their projects into the Gati Shakti portal. The plan covers economic clusters such as textile, pharmaceuticals, and defence zones, improving connectivity and competitiveness for Indian businesses. Railway infrastructure development initiatives The National Rail Plan (NRP) 2030 is a comprehensive strategy to create a future-ready railway system by 2030, with the capacity to meet demand through 2050. The plan aims to increase the modal share of railways in freight to 45% by 2030, up from 27% in 2022. Key features of the plan include achieving 100% electrification of the railway network by 2030 and upgrading speeds to 160 km/h on major routes. The plan also involves identifying and implementing new dedicated freight corridors (DFCs) to support freight growth. This will help make railways the backbone of India's logistics network. The DFCs are a crucial component of the National Rail Plan, designed to improve speed, efficiency, and capacity by separating cargo from passenger traffic. The western and eastern DFCs span over 2,800 km and are among the largest infrastructure projects in India. The DFCs are built to handle heavier and longer trains, with higher axle loads and advanced signalling, allowing freight trains to run at up to 100 km/h. This will free capacity for passenger trains on existing routes. It will include state-of-the-art freight terminals and logistics parks. Energy sector initiatives The Indian government has set ambitious targets for the energy sector, including 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030.3 Policies such as expanded tenders for solar, wind and hybrid projects and robust support for domestic manufacturing are driving growth. The 2025 budget introduced tariff reductions on renewable components and strengthened grid infrastructure. The government has also introduced initiatives such as the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, offering subsidies for residential rooftop solar, and PM KUSUM, empowering farmers with solar pumps and grid sales. These efforts aim to increase renewable energy capacity and reduce dependence on fossil fuels. The government, in the 2025 budget, also announced the launch Nuclear Energy Mission, which is focused on research and development (R&D) of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). The government has allocated Rs 20,000 crore for this initiative with an aim to develop at least five indigenously designed and operational SMRs by 2033. Aerospace and defence sector initiatives The government’s Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat initiatives aim to boost domestic manufacturing and reduce import dependence in the aerospace and defence sectors. The 2025 Defence Vision prioritises modernisation, integration, and indigenous production, with a strong push for research and development and advanced military technology. The government has increased defence allocation 9.5% to Rs 6.81 trillion in the 2026 budget, with a focus on self-reliance and export growth. The PLI scheme launched for specialty steel particularly focusses on boosting domestic production of specialty steel grades, which are high-value and have applications in niche sectors such as defence. The government has also fostered global collaborations, technology transfers and investments, with over 111 foreign exhibitors at Aero India 2025. Defence corridors in Uttar Pradesh and Tamil Nadu support supply chains and manufacturing ecosystems, driving sectoral growth. With a target of Rs 50,000 crore in defence exports by 2029, India is transitioning from an importer to an exporter; over 606 industrial licences have been issued to 369 companies. 3 India's renewable energy capacity hits new milestone, Ministry of New and Renewable Energy 168In May 2025, the government of India has approved a framework to build India’s own fifth-generation stealth fighter jet - the advanced medium combat aircraft (AMCA). Labour costs and participation in India India's labour cost has steadily increased, with average hourly labour cost rising to $3.0 per hour in fiscal 2025. The employment situation has improved notably, with the worker population ratio increasing from 46.8% to 56.0% between fiscals 2018 and 2023. The unemployment rate has declined steadily, recording a year-on-year decrease from 6.0% to 3.2% during the period. Labour force participation has improved to 50.4% by end-2024 from 41% in 2014, with women's participation in the workforce increasing to nearly 37% from 23%. Employment has grown to over 64 crores in fiscal 2025 from 47 crore in fiscal 2015, with the national floor-level minimum wage rising to Rs 178 per day in 2024 from Rs 137 per day in 2014. Ease of doing business in India India has improved its ease of doing business rankings from 142 in 2014 to 63 in 2019, driven by extensive reforms to simplify procedures and improve infrastructure. Key reforms such as Goods and Services Tax implementation, insolvency code and digitalisation have contributed to regulatory simplification and faster clearances. This has boosted India's attractiveness for investment and business operations, enhancing its competitiveness as a destination for investment and manufacturing. The improved business environment has offset the impact of rising labour costs, with India experiencing a steady increase in these costs over the past decade. Despite moderate inflation, labour force participation and employment levels have improved, with a notable rise in women's participation in the workforce, making India an attractive destination for investment and manufacturing. Government’s key initiatives to improve ease of doing business in key sectors are described below: Energy sector: The government has taken steps such as streamlining regulatory processes, providing financial incentives, and setting-up dedicated investor facilitation channels to improve the ease of doing business in the energy sector. For example, for businesses in green hydrogen manufacturing, the government has drafted new rules that would result in a faster establishment of energy storage capacity. Defence sector: The Defence Product List was streamlined in 2019 to reduce the number of items requiring a manufacturing licence. Further, parts and components of defence items were de-licensed in September 2019 to encourage investment in domestic defence industry. The validity of export authorisation for parts and components used in defence industry was also extended from two years to the completion of the order or component, whichever is later. Furthermore, the validity of defence licences under the Industries (Development and Regulation) Act, 1951, has been extended from 3 years to 15 years, with a further extension option of up to 18 years. As a result of these initiatives, over 700 industrial licences have been issued to 436 companies in the defence sector. Further, with a growing focus on moving the manufacturing bases out of China to reduce the supply chain risks in light of the China-plus-one strategy, many original equipment manufacturers have chosen India as the preferred destination owing to its ease of doing business parameters. For example, automobile companies such as Toyota and Hyundai are looking to expand their production bases in India. As the overall manufacturing industry expands, the domestic demand for key input materials such as steel (including special steel/alloy steel) will also grow. Budget 2026 announcements related to the steel industry The government has taken several measures to support the steel sector, including4: • Promoting Made in India steel through the Domestically Manufactured Iron & Steel Products (DMI&SP) Policy for government procurement • Launching the PLI scheme for specialty steel to reduce imports and attract investment, with an expected additional investment of Rs 27,106 crore 4 Budget 2026, Minister of State for Steel and Heavy Industries, PIB 169Budget also announced an increase in the financial outlay for the Specialty steel PLI scheme from Rs 55 crores in fiscal 2025 to Rs 305 crores in fiscal 2026 • Improving raw material availability and reducing costs by reducing the basic customs duty on ferro nickel to zero and extending duty exemption on ferrous scrap up to March 31, 2026 • Enhancing steel scrap recycling through the Steel Scrap Recycling Policy to increase domestically generated ferrous scrap • Implementing effective import monitoring and quality control measures, including revamping the Steel Import Monitoring System (SIMS) and introducing Steel Quality Control Orders to ban sub-standard steel products Increasing infrastructure expansion through a capex of Rs 11 trillion, announced in the budget for fiscal 2025, to boost steel consumption. Global macroeconomic review The global economy is projected to grow 2.8% on-year in 2025 as per the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which is below the 3.5% average between 2000 and 2024, owing to challenges such as elevated inflation and geopolitical uncertainties5. The growth rate in 2020, wherein the global gross domestic product (GDP) contracted by 2.7% amid challenges heaped by the Covid-19 pandemic. While growth rebounded to 6.6% the following year with the easing of restrictions, it once again slowed to 3.3% and 3.5% in 2023 and 2024 respectively because of rising interest rates to combat inflation, the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and increased global uncertainty and trade policy tensions. The IMF projects global GDP growth to remain subdued at 3% in 2026, due to ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, increasing geoeconomic fragmentation, and tighter inflation-tackling monetary policies. The slow growth will be across regions, including the US, euro area, and other regions, which will be buffeted by ongoing trade wars and heightened trade policy uncertainties. Coordinated policy responses are needed to address the short- and long-term fallout. With a growth rate of 6.50% in 2024, India's economic growth remains strong and is expected to be a bright spot with expected growth rates of 6.20% in 2025 and 6-7% in both 2026 and 2027. 6 India's high growth rate can be attributed to its large and growing consumer market, investments in infrastructure, and government initiatives such as the "Make in India" program. 9.70% 9.20% 7.60% 6.50% 6.20% 6.30% 6.50% 3.60% 3.90% 3.30% 2.80% 3.00% 3.10% 3.50% 2.90% 6.60% -2.70% -5.80% CY19 CY20 CY21 CY22 CY23 CY24 CY25P CY26P CY30P World United States (US) Euro Area China India Note: P - projected (years mentioned on the horizontal axis correspond to calendar years) Source: Crisil Intelligence, IMF, World Bank, S&P Global Region-wise and country-wise economic review and outlook7 Real GDP (on-year growth) 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025P 2026P 2030P World 2.90% -2.70% 6.60% 3.60% 3.50% 3.30% 2.80% 3.00% 3.10% Key countries 5 IMF – World Economic Outlook reports of April, July, October 2024 and January, April 2025 6 All forecasts are by the IMF unless stated otherwise 7 All classifications according to IMF 170United States (US) 2.50% -2.20% 5.80% 1.90% 2.90% 2.80% 2.70% 2.10% 2.10% Euro area 1.60% -6.10% 5.90% 3.40% 0.40% 0.80% 1.00% 1.40% 1.20% Canada 1.90% -5.00% 6.00% 4.20% 1.50% 1.50% 1.40% 1.60% 1.50% Japan -0.40% -4.10% 2.60% 1.00% 1.50% -0.20% 1.10% 0.80% 0.40% United Kingdom (UK) 1.60% -10.40% 8.70% 4.30% 0.30% 0.90% 1.60% 1.50% 1.40% China 6.00% 2.20% 8.40% 3.00% 5.20% 4.80% 4.60% 4.50% 3.30% Brazil 1.20% -3.30% 4.80% 3.00% 3.20% 3.40% 2.00% 2.00% 2.50% India 3.90% -5.80% 9.70% 7.60% 9.20% 6.50% 6.50% 6.50% 6.50% Key emerging and developing regions Asia 5.40% -0.50% 7.80% 4.70% 6.10% 5.30% 4.50% 4.60% 4.50% Europe 2.50% -1.80% 7.10% 0.50% 3.60% 3.40% 2.10% 2.40% 2.60% Latin America and the Caribbean 0.20% -6.90% 7.40% 4.20% 2.40% 2.40% 2.00% 2.40% 2.60% Middle east and central Asia 1.90% -2.20% 4.40% 5.50% 2.20% 2.40% 3.00% 3.50% 3.70% Sub-Saharan Africa 3.20% -1.50% 4.70% 4.10% 3.60% 4.00% 3.80% 4.20% 4.50% Note: P - projected (years mentioned on the horizontal axis correspond to calendar years for the world and countries except India.

Global finished steel production (CY 2020-2030) Global finished steel production remained rangebound during the period between CY 2020 and CY 2024, primarily owing to production cuts in steel mills in China, the single largest steel producer in the world. Going forward, the global finished steel production is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.8-3.2% between 2024 and 2028 on account of an expected increase in demand from infrastructure, construction, energy, and automobile sectors in emerging as well as developed economies. 172‒ Global finished steel production (MT) ‒ Global flat and long steel production (MT) CAGR (CY20-24): 0.1% CAGR (CY24-28): 2.8-3.2% CY24E 810-830 950-970 1,980-2,030 CY23 830.3 974.7 CY22 826.7 970.4 1,848 1,797 1,805 CY21 849.9 997.7 1,775 1,783 CY20 940.8 834.3 CY20 CY21 CY22 CY23 CY24E CY28P Long Flat P – projected; E- Estimated; MT: million tonnes Source: Crisil Intelligence, World Steel Association Global finished steel demand (CY 2020-2030) Global finished steel demand largely remained rangebound during the period between CY 2020 and CY 2024, primarily owing to lower demand from key steel consumer China considering its property sector downturn along with increased global interest rates amid escalating geopolitical tensions.

A positive industrial activities’ outlook in the European union, an expected recovery in automobile and construction sectors in Japan, and an anticipated growth in sectors including building, construction, infrastructure, engineering, and packaging in India will drive the global steel demand in the next 5-6 years. 173Per capita steel consumption in key countries (in kilograms) Average global per capita steel consumption for CY24: 215 kilograms 924 601 419 304 261 215 105 South Korea China Japan Russia United States India World Note: For all countries except India, volume refers to 2024. For India, demand volume is based on fiscal 2025. Source: World Steel Association, World Bank The global average per capita steel consumption was 215 kg in 2024. However, since South Korea, China, Japan, Russia, and the US have higher steel usage owing to significantly higher investment in infrastructure projects, their per capita steel consumption stood above the world average. In fiscal 2025, India’s per capita steel consumption was 105 kg (corresponding to fiscal 2025), which was less than half of the global average per capita steel consumption. However, with increasing thrust on development of infrastructure, construction, and energy sectors, the underpenetrated Indian steel market holds considerable growth potential.

For example, year 2019 corresponds to FY20 and so on After the pandemic and subsequent lockdown impacted year of 2020, steel demand in India rebounded strongly. As a result, the on-year growth rates for Indian steel domestic demand remained well above near- and sub-zero global steel demand growth rates during the period between 2021 and 2024. This gap between steel demand for India and the rest of the world was fuelled by a strong recovery of economic activity post the pandemic and pent-up demand from major steel consuming sectors such as infrastructure, building and construction and automobile. Impact of macro forces on global steel market • Geopolitical uncertainties: The impact of geopolitical uncertainties on the steel industry is highly significant. For example, this can lead to supply chain disruptions, increased transportation risks and costs, volatility in raw material and consumable prices, uncertainty on the steel makers’ and end-use industries’ capital expenditure plans, reduction in demand from key end-use sectors, and energy price shocks. • Inflation: Inflation can lead to increase in prices of raw materials (iron ore, coal, etc.) and energy costs, making steel production highly expensive. Inflation can also cause an increase in logistics and transportation costs. The inability of steel producers to pass-on the steel price increments to the consumers, especially in the event of weak demand, would harm their profitability. The capacity expansion plans would also slow-down in the high inflationary scenario on the account of higher interest rates. 174For instance, as per the European Commission data, a whopping 68% on-year increase in average natural gas prices in 2022 from 4.75 euros per 100 kilowatt-hours in 2021 to approximately 8 euros per 100 kilowatt-hours in 2022 in Europe led to production cuts in many steel plants. On the other hand, energy rich countries such as those in the middle east were able to maintain stable industrial output. • Trade policies and tariffs: Tariffs redirect steel trade from one country to another. For example, after the imposition of tariffs by the U.S. on steel in 2018, key exporters like China found new markets in Europe and South-East Asia. Further, the imposition of tariffs can lead to retaliatory tariffs, creating market uncertainty. The World Trade Organization (WTO) estimates that the US-China tariff dispute alone could cut trade between the two countries by 80% and reduce global growth by 7% in the long run. This impact on global growth can lead to a demand slowdown in core sectors such as steel. The increase in tariffs on steel and related products by the U.S. to 50%, effective from June 2025, might also lead to a shift in global trade patterns and retaliatory tariffs. On the contrary, trade measures such as safeguard or anti-dumping duties help in curbing unfair trade (steel dumping) and in-turn help in development of domestic industry. • Environmental regulations: Increasing focus on environmental regulations such as the regulations on carbon emissions, air pollution, water usage, etc, force steel makers to make investments in emission control equipment, green technologies, and monitoring systems. This in-turn leads to an increase in capital and operating costs for the companies. In general, developed economies follow stricter environmental regulations making their steel more expensive, thus creating trade imbalances. Policies such as carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) are promoting green steel manufacturing as the steel makers across the globe wish to remain competitive in export markets. CBAM, which will impose carbon tariffs on imported steel from 2026, will significantly impact the steel exporters from countries like China and India which majorly manufacture steel through coal-heavy processes. As per CBAM, considering a typical blast furnace – basic oxygen furnace route of hot-rolled (HR) coil manufacturing which emits approximately 2.1 tonnes of CO per tonne of HR coil production and an average 80 euros of carbon tax per tonne of CO emissions, exporting one 2 2 tonne of HR coil to the Europe Union will attract a carbon tax of approximately 168 Euros. Further, any policies aiming to control carbon emissions will help the steel producers gain market access in those geographies where there are strict compliance norms with respect to import and use of sustainable steel. For example, India’s Carbon Credit Trading Scheme, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through carbon pricing, will help Indian steel producers gain customers in CBAM compliant European Union countries Structure of India’s steel industry * Others include Prime plate (PM) plates, Hot strip mill (HSM) plates, colour coated coils/sheets, electrical coils/sheets, tin plates, tin free steel, (Tin Mill black plate) TMBP, pipes etc. Source: CRISIL MI&A Consulting, Industry 175Manufacturing process There are three popular processes to produce crude steel from raw materials – basic oxygen furnace (BOF), electric arc furnace (EAF), and induction furnace (IF). In BF/BOF, iron ore and coking coal are fed into a blast furnace (BF) to produce hot metal. The BOF converts the hot metal into crude steel. BF/BOF process Source: CRISIL MI&A Consulting, Industry Steel scrap, pig iron or sponge iron is used as raw material in an EAF and IF. The raw material is melted using heat generated with the aid of an electric arc produced by graphite electrodes. 176EAF process Source: CRISIL MI&A Consulting, Industry Further in the IF process, heat is generated through electromagnetic induction in an electrically conductive medium (usually a metal). IF process Source: CRISIL MI&A Consulting, Industry Indian steel sector review and outlook The domestic steel industry demand logged a CAGR of 8.7% between fiscals 2020 and 2025, reaching 152 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) in fiscal 2025 from 100.2 MTPA in fiscal 2020. The spurt in demand is attributable to the aggregate effect of growth in the automobile, infrastructure and construction sectors during the period. 177Finished steel demand by product type (MTPA) CAGR (FY20-25): 8.7% CAGR (FY25-30P): 7.5-8.5% 250.0 150.0 210-230 200.0 152.0 105-1151 10-120 136.3 100.0 119.9 150.0 100.2 94.9 105.8 81.1 100.0 50.0 48.5 51.7 43.5 51.4 47.0 58.8 54.6 65.3 61.9 74.4 70.9 50.0 - - FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY30P Flat Long Total E: Estimated; P: Projected; MTPA: million tonnes per annum; MT: million tonnes Source: JPC, Crisil Intelligence Note: FY 2025 figures are as per provisional data released by JPC in its March 2025 report In fiscal 2021, the domestic demand dipped 5% on-year to 94.9 MT owing to pandemic led disruptions. However, with the resumption of economic activities, the domestic finished steel demand grew on-year by 11% to 105.8 MT in fiscal 2022. In fiscal 2023, the recovery continued as domestic steel demand grew 13% on-year to 119.9 MTPA owing to a continuous pent-up demand in key end-use sectors and a revival of consumer sentiments post the pandemic. In fiscal 2024, the domestic demand for finished steel further increased ~14% on-year, owing to higher demand from the automobile sector on account of higher disposable income; housing and construction sector, led by government’s affordable housing schemes; and government-led capital expenditure in the infrastructure segment in the run-up to the 2024 general elections. Demand for domestic finished steel further increased by 12% on -year to 152 MT per annum in fiscal 2025, driven by strong demand from building and construction, infrastructure and capital goods sectors. Demand for long and flat steel is estimated to have increased at a similar CAGR of 8-9% between fiscals 2020 and 2025. While demand growth for flat steel was supported by the automobile and construction segments, that for long steel was fuelled by the infrastructure development sector. Demand for domestic steel is expected to log a CAGR of 7.5-8.5% over fiscals 2025-30, reaching 210-230 MT, led by healthy growth prospects in the building and construction, infrastructure, and automobile sectors, boosted by government’s National Steel Policy, 2017. • Building and construction Steel demand from the building and construction sector accounts for 36-40% of aggregate finished steel demand as of fiscal 2025. Over fiscals 2025-30, demand for steel from the segment is expected to clock a CAGR of 7-9%, driven by: • The government’s focus on affordable housing • Robust rural housing demand against the backdrop of the government’s ongoing focus on rural development and higher minimum support prices • Improvement in urban housing demand owing to increased commercialisation of tier-3 and tier-4 cities, led by better infrastructure connectivity • Infrastructure The infrastructure segment is the second-largest consumer of steel and accounts for 30-32% of the aggregate finished steel demand and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8-10% between fiscals 2025-2030. The sub-segments of roads, highways, and railways (including metros) cumulatively contribute to 50-55% of domestic finished steel demand coming from the infrastructure segment. Healthy demand from the sector is expected to persist, driven by increasing developmental activities and the swift pace of execution in steel-intensive segments such as railways. Other significant contributors include the irrigation, dams, water supply and sanitation sectors. 178• Engineering and packaging This sector accounts for 24-26% of aggregate finished steel demand. The engineering and packaging industry is expected to log a CAGR of 7-8% between fiscals 2025 and 2030 owing to increasing disposable income levels, expanding e-commerce, and a growing emphasis on sustainability. • Automotive The automotive sector accounts for 6-7% of aggregate finished steel demand. Despite a slowdown in fiscal 2022, the following fiscal witnessed resolution of supply-side issues and improved consumer sentiment, thereby fuelling growth in the sector. The industry is expected to log a CAGR of 8-9% between fiscals 2025 and 2030 owing to growing preference for personal vehicles, easy financing options, improving living standards and income levels of rural as well as urban population.

Going forward, the per capita steel consumption is projected to rise to 145-150 kg in fiscal 2030 owing to a strong 7.5-8.5% growth expected in domestic steel consumption between fiscals 2025 and 2030 and a rangebound growth expected in India’s population, as per World Bank. Key government schemes supporting domestic steel sector Aatmanirbhar Bharat/Make in India/Ease of Doing Business initiative The government’s strong focus on transforming India into a global manufacturing hub through schemes such as Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat, along with the ongoing supply-chain derisking strategy of global companies, is expected to help India strengthen its domestic manufacturing sector including domestic steel sector. The Government has also taken steps to improve India’s parameters on ease of doing business, which also benefit overall manufacturing sector in India. National Steel Policy 2017 The National Steel Policy (NSP), approved in May 2017 by the Union Cabinet, seeks to boost domestic steel consumption, ensure high-quality steel production and create a technologically advanced and globally competitive steel industry. NSP’s vision for demand, supply and trade: • To increase steel consumption across the infrastructure, automotive and housing sectors, resulting in a potential rise in per capita steel consumption to 158 kg by fiscal 2030 from ~65 kg in fiscal 2017 • To achieve 300 MT of steelmaking capacity by 2030 through additional investments of Rs 10 lakh crores • To produce steel domestically for high-end applications, such as electrical steel (cold-rolled grain-oriented), special steel and alloys for power equipment, aerospace, defence and nuclear applications • To eliminate reliance on steel imports and increase exports to ~24 MT by 2030 Indian steel industry: Historical trend and vision under NSP NSP 2005 NSP 2017 Parameter (MT) FY20 FY30 FY23 FY24 FY25E FY30P (Target) (Target) Crude steel capacity 300 161.30 179.51 195-200 260-270 Crude steel production 110 255 127.20 144.30 152.0 210-230 Finished steel demand 90 230 119.89 136.29 152.0 210-230 Finished steel import 6 0 6.02 8.32 9.60 Finished steel export 26 24 6.72 7.49 4.90 Note: E – estimated as per provisional data *FY25 estimates are based on April 2024-March 2025 provisional data released by JPC Source: Crisil Intelligence, Joint Plant Committee (JPC) report, NSP 2005, NSP 2017 PLI scheme Keeping in view India’s vision of becoming ‘Atmanirbhar’, an incentive outlay of Rs 1.97 trillion (equivalent to over $26 billion) under the PLI scheme for 14 key sectors is underway to enhance the country’s manufacturing capabilities and exports. The scheme aims to attract investments (domestic and foreign) in the areas of core competency and apply cutting-edge technology; ensure efficiencies; create economies of scale; and boost exports to make India an integral part of the global value chain. 180Particulars Units Amount PLI scheme-led investment Rs trillion 1.61 PLI scheme production/sales Rs trillion 14.00 PLI scheme-led exports Rs trillion 5.31 PLI-led employment generation Million 1.15 (direct and indirect) Note: All figures in the table are until March 2025 Source: Press Information Bureau PLI for Specialty steel sector • In January 2025, the Ministry of Steel launched the PLI Scheme 1.1 for specialty steel for five product categories: coated/plated steel products, high-strength/wear-resistant steel, specialty rails, alloy steel products and steel wires, and electrical steel. The scheme will be implemented during the production period of fiscal 2026 to fiscal 2030 and will operate within the funds originally allocated for the scheme (first round of the scheme launched originally in fiscal 2022), i.e., Rs 63.22 billion • In the first round of this PLI scheme, 44 projects by 26 companies are active with a committed investment of about Rs 271.06 billion and 24 MT of downstream capacity creation. As of November 2024, the actual investment achieved was around Rs 183 billion with a direct employment generation of around 8,300 The PLI scheme is aimed at increasing domestic production in multiple industries, which will give a strong push to industrialisation and in turn support growth in the building, construction and infrastructure sectors. Export friendly policies The government of India, in order to promote finished steel exports and in turn boost domestic production, removed the export duties on multiple steel and related products including pig iron and flat rolled products in November 2022. For example, the export duty on the steel products specified under harmonized system of nomenclature (HSN) codes 7201, 7208, 7209, 7210, 7213, 7214, 7219, 7222, and 7227 was brought down to zero from 15%. Green steel mission Government of India is preparing ‘Green Steel Mission’ with an estimated cost of Rs 15,000 Crore for helping the Steel Industry reduce carbon emission and progress towards the Net Zero Target. The Mission includes: production linked incentive scheme for Green Steel, incentives for use of renewable energy, and mandates for Government agencies to buy Green Steel. This policy is expected to improve exports and global competitiveness of India-made steel. For instance, green steel, thus produced, will be able to meet European union’s carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) standards, shielding exports from any carbon tariffs and improving access in green markets. The government has also release green steel taxonomy which will certify and star-rate steel products as per its carbon emission level. This certification will help steel manufacturers have better access to markets which lay high importance to the sustainability standards. National Green Hydrogen Mission This mission, spearheaded by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, integrates the steel sector into the broader goal of producing and using green hydrogen, contributing to the decarbonisation of steel production. This will also assist in making India-made steel globally competitive, particularly in the regions which impose carbon tariffs. Steel Scrap Recycling Policy The Steel Scrap Recycling Policy was introduced in 2019, to ensure scientific processing, reuse, and efficient management of scrap, with the aim of reducing India's dependency on imported scrap. It promotes the creation of an organized and environmentally sustainable scrap eco-system by encouraging setting up of modern scrap processing centers. This initiative will help in lowering production costs and reducing CO₂ emissions. By enhancing scrap availability, the policy supports electric arc furnace (EAF) and induction furnace-based steel producers, which rely heavily on scrap. The policy, thus, aligns with the goal of resource efficiency and circular economy in the steel sector. 181Domestically Manufactured Iron & Steel Products (DMI&SP) Policy The DMI&SP Policy, implemented by the Ministry of Steel in 2017, mandates government procurement agencies to give preference to domestically manufactured iron and steel products in public projects. It aims to boost local manufacturing, improve capacity utilization, and reduce import dependency. The policy requires a minimum local content percentage in steel products used for government-funded projects (unless quality or availability constraints are proven). This initiative strengthens the domestic steel industry by creating assured demand and supporting Make in India objectives. Investment scenario in domestic infrastructure The government’s focus on infrastructure development was evident in budget 2025-2026 allocations. • The government allocated a capital expenditure of Rs 11.21 trillion for the infrastructure sector • The government announced a capital outlay of Rs 0.2 trillion for the nuclear energy sector, under which five indigenously developed small modular reactors will be operational by 2033 • The government announced to set up a Rs 250 billion Maritime Development Fund • The government announced opening greenfield airports in Bihar and unveiled a new UDAN (Ude Desh ka Aam Naagrik) scheme to enhance regional connectivity to 120 new destinations and carry 40 million passengers in the next 10 years • The centre proposed an outlay of Rs 1.50 trillion for the 50-year interest-free loans to states for capital expenditure and incentives for reforms • The government extended the Jal Jeevan Mission till 2028, focusing on quality infrastructure and rural piped water supply schemes • The government announced the establishment of a Rs 1 trillion Urban Challenge Fund to implement proposals for ‘Cities as Growth Hubs’, ‘Creative Redevelopment of Cities’ and ‘Water and Sanitation’, as announced in Interim Budget 2024. Under this, an allocation of Rs 0.1 trillion has been proposed for fiscal 2026 Key government-led initiatives in domestic infrastructure space • Transportation sector Pradhan Mantri Gati Shakti: The PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan (NMP), launched in 2021 aims to provide seamless and efficient connectivity for the movement of people, goods, and services across various modes of transport, thereby enhancing last-mile connectivity and reducing travel time.

Har Ghar Nal Yojana is another government sponsored scheme which is drawing investments towards water supply and sanitation segment of infrastructure industry. Note: Overall, the infrastructure segment accounts for 28-30% of the aggregate finished steel demand. Within the segment, roads and highways, and railways (including metros) account for 50-60% of segment’s steel demand. Other significant contributors include sectors such as irrigation, dams, water supply and sanitation. 183Domestic steel supply Crude steel supply (capacity and production) Domestic crude steel capacity and production volume 300 260-270 100% 190-200 77% 78% 79% 80% 75-80% 80% 200 142.0 1 09.1 144.0 1 07 32 .% 5 154.0 1 20.3 161.0 1 27.2 180.0 1 44.3 152.0 78-83% 210-220 46 00 %% 100 20% 0 0% FY 2020 FY 2021 FY 2022 FY 2023 FY 2024 FY 2025 FY 2030P Crude steel capacity (MTPA) Crude steel production (MT) Capacity utilization (%) Source: Crisil Intelligence, industry, JPC; MT: million tonnes; MTPA: million tonnes per annum India’s supply side of steel (both crude and finished) has remained on a growth trend since fiscal 2021 when it declined on-year owing to pandemic led disruptions. Between fiscals 2020-2025, the crude steel production volume increased at a CAGR of 6.8% to 152 million tonnes in fiscal 2025. The growth in the production volume during the period came as a result of increase in domestic demand of steel primarily from infrastructure and construction segment. Going forward, the crude steel production is expected to reach 210-220 million tonnes by fiscal 2030 on the back of government’s push for domestic steel production through Make In India, PLI, etc. and an expected reduction in dependence on imports simultaneously. To support the domestic steel manufacturing, the domestic crude steel capacity is also expected to increase from an estimated 190-200 million tonnes in fiscal 2025 to 260-270 million tonnes in fiscal 2030. As a result, the capacity utilization of the steel industry is expected to increase from 75-80% in fiscal 2025 to 78-83% in fiscal 2030. Investment scenario in domestic steel manufacturing industry As of fiscal 2024, India’s crude steel capacity was ~179 MTPA, which is estimated to have grown to 195-200 MTPA in fiscal 2025. With the growing demand for steel in the domestic end-use industries such as infrastructure and automobile, domestic steel producers are planning to ramp up their production output by increasing their manufacturing capacities and improving capacity utilisation levels. • Over the period between fiscals 2025-2027, India is expected to add a total of 30-35 million tonnes of annual crude steel manufacturing capacity, in lines with that planned by ASEAN8 countries during this period (30-35 million tonnes) and exceeding that planned by Middle Eastern countries (8-10 MT) during this period, which are also investing heavily in the steel sector • Between fiscals 2025-2029, India is expected to add approximately 50 million tonnes of annual crude steel manufacturing capacity in total.

The production volume of finished steel, which increased at a CAGR of 7.4 between fiscals 2020-2025, is expected to increase at a CAGR of 6.5-7.5% between fiscals 2025-2030 to clock 200-210 million tonnes in fiscal 2030. Finished steel supply by type of steel: By composition Alloy and stainless steel: Alloy and stainless steel are manufactured in various grades and produced with one or more elements of carbon, manganese, silicon, nickel, copper, lead, chromium, tungsten, molybdenum, niobium and vanadium in specified proportions to impart specific physical, mechanical, metallurgical and electrical properties Alloy and stainless steel are used in forgings, tools and dies, bearings and fasteners, which are used by the automobiles, power, oil and gas, industrial machines, railways/ mass rapid transport systems and defence sectors to manufacture crankshafts, connecting rods, camshafts, bearings, fasteners, railway carriage wheels, bombshells, cutting tools, surgical instruments and utensils. Non-alloy steel: Non-alloy or carbon steel comprises iron and carbon. It is the most produced variant of steel. In the past five years, non-alloy steel constituted 93-95% of India’s finished steel production. The main components of non-alloy steel are carbon, manganese and silicon in proportions of up to 1.70%, 0.90% and 0.30%, respectively. A change in the 185composition of carbon affects the properties of carbon steel. Steel does not contain any alloying element. Non-alloy steel is used in the construction, infrastructure, automobiles and consumer durables sectors. Popular applications include buildings, bridges, rails, pipelines, body panels for cars, refrigerators and washing machines.

The share of alloy and stainless steel in total finished steel production grew from 5% in fiscal 2020 to 7.8% in fiscal 2025 owing to a stronger increase in demand of steel from sectors such as infrastructure, automobile, defence, renewable energy, aerospace, etc., which prefer consumption of stronger and more durable alloy and stainless-steel grades over carbon steel grades. Emerging trends on supply side As per the National Steel Policy, the government aims to achieve 300 million tonnes of crude steel manufacturing capacity with a contribution of 35-40% from electric arc furnace / induction furnace (EAF/IF) route of manufacturing, implying that the share of EAF/IF route of steel manufacturing will increase in domestic steel manufacturing industry. Further, multiple initiatives such as Green steel mission, National Green Hydrogen Mission, and Steel Scrap Recycling Policy are expected to change the dynamics of supply side in the domestic steel industry. Further, Quality Control Order of 2024 has provided guidelines aimed at protecting consumer’s interests. Originally introduced in February 2016 by the Ministry of Steel, the Quality Control Order (QCO) was implemented for stainless steel flat products to safeguard consumer interest, by banning substandard or defective steel products (both domestic and imports). Under subsequent revisions to the Quality control Order, the stainless steel products were merged into Steel and Steel products QCO, 2024. This order captured standards for stainless steel bars, flats, blooms, billets, slab, plate, sheet, tubes, pipes, wire and strip. However, the domestic manufactured steel and steel products conforming to any other specification required by foreign buyers for export are exempted. Each product specified under this Order must adhere to the corresponding Indian Standards, effective immediately upon implementation, and be accompanied by a Test Certificate with the Standard Mark issued by a certified manufacturer under the Bureau of Indian Standards. Such measures and standards continue to promote quality supply and access to stainless steel products in domestic markets. QCO prohibits manufacturing, import, storage, sale and distribution of stainless steel products by trade and industry without BIS registration. The government will continue to further strengthen the standards through subsequent revisions to the standards. 186Finished steel trade Import/export volume of finished steel to/from India (FY 2020 – FY 2025) Source: Crisil Intelligence, industry, JPC Trade volume In India (in million tonnes) 13.5 10.8 9.6 6.8 8.4 6.0 6.7 8.3 7.5 4.8 4.7 4.9 FY 2020 FY 2021 FY 2022 FY 2023 FY 2024 FY 2025 Import volume Export volume The import volume of finished steel in India decreased at a CAGR of 17% between fiscals 2020 and 2022 owing to a low growth in demand for finished steel during the period, which was largely fulfilled by a strong rise in domestic production during the period. However, between fiscals 2022 and 2025, the imports rebounded and surged robustly at a CAGR of 27% primarily due to a strong rise in domestic demand and an increase in availability of low-priced steel imports manufactured in south-Asian and south-east Asian countries. The export volume during fiscal 2020-2022 period increased at a strong CAGR of 27% to clock 13.5 million tonnes in fiscal 2022 on the account of diversion of domestically produced finished steel to export destinations in the absence of a robust demand domestically. However, in the period between fiscals 2022 and 2025, the export volume declined at a CAGR of 29% owing to an increase in competition in the export markets from lower priced finished steel supplied from the other south-Asian countries.

Unlike flat steel, long steel market is fragmented with top 7 players producing around ~28% of the total long steel produced while the rest are being distributed amongst more than 1032 IF units and 1207 re-rolling units present in India till Fiscal 2024. The share of key ISPs producing long steel increased from 23% in Fiscal 2018 to 28% in Fiscal 2025 on back of following reasons: With rise in infrastructure demand, and increased spendings made by Government in the past few years, long steel demand has registered a strong growth of CAGR 9.7% during Fiscals 2020-24. The rising demand has attracted investments from key ISPs towards expanding their footprint in long steel-making thus leading to increased share Over the past few years, steel industry has witnessed market consolidation in both long steel and flat steel segment due to the secondary players facing operational and liquidity issues With changing construction practices of using high strength products, ISPs have managed to capture the trend and service the needs of consumers with their higher quality products, thus leading to increased share Industry structure in long steel production Note: Key ISPs include Tata Steel, SAIL, JSW, JSPL, AMNS, NSL and RINL.

This also makes the ore porous. Sponge iron is popularly used as a feed in electric/induction furnaces and as a substitute for steel scrap because high-quality scrap is costly and scarcely available. The Indian sponge iron industry witnessed significant growth, driven by robust demand for long steel and a slower ramp- up by major players, resulting in increased blending of sponge iron. Consequently, production of sponge iron expanded at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4% from FY20 to FY25. In FY25, sponge iron production recorded a moderate year-on-year growth of 8%, primarily fueled by the rising demand for long steel. The estimated production volume for FY25 stands at 55.5 million tons. This growth is largely attributed to an 8-9% increase in secondary long steel production via the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) and Induction Furnace (IF) routes, primarily driven by mid-sized and small industry players. Sponge iron capacity and production review E: Estimated, P: Projected Source: JPC, Crisil Intelligence Sponge iron industry is fragmented in India with around 344 units with an operational capacity of 60.52 MT as of Fiscal 2024. These units had a gross production of around 51.56 MT as of Fiscal 2024 thereby yielding a utilization level of around 85%. The capacity increased from 47.85 MT in Fiscal 2020 to 60.52 MT in Fiscal 2024. Spread of DRI units and production done across regions in Fiscal 2024 Source: JPC, Crisil Intelligence The majority of medium and small iron and steel producers are not integrated, and hence, they import scrap at high prices. These producers used scrap to manufacture long products as an input in the electric arc furnace (EAF) or induction furnace (IF). Sponge iron can substitute scrap while manufacturing crude steel through the EAF/IF route. As a result, the scarcity in scrap supplies and a rise in its prices led to higher domestic demand for sponge iron. 191 58.74 01.73 80.84 83.43 72.94 02.93 57.45 26.34 25.06 65.15 56.55 87-67 Units in MT Production: FY20-25 CAGR of 8.4% Production:FY25-30 CAGR of 6-7% 90.00 90% 85% 80.00 85% 70.00 80% 80% 78% 60.00 71% 80% 50.00 75% 40.00 30.00 70% 20.00 65% 10.00 - 60% FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY30 P DRI Capacity DRI Production Utilization level 70.00 400 60.00 344 350 300 50.00 162 250 40.00 102 200 30.00 60.52 51.56 150 75 20.00 100 5 10.00 27.17 23.40 24.94 7.41 6.25 50 21.20 1.000.72 0.00 0 East West North South Total DRI capacity (MT) DRI production (MT) No. of unitsSponge iron demand review and outlook P: Projected Source: JPC, Crisil Intelligence Sponge iron is a vital raw material, alongside pig iron and scrap, utilized in the production of steel through induction furnaces and electric arc furnaces. The majority of steel produced via these furnaces is subsequently converted into long products. The sponge iron sector is predominantly driven by domestic demand, with international trade playing a relatively minor role, accounting for a mere 2-4% of total production through exports and imports. As a result, the sector's performance is closely tied to the domestic steel industry's demand for long products. The following factors are expected to continue to influence sponge iron production: 1. Increasing competition from large players: The market share of large players utilizing the Blast Furnace/Basic Oxygen Furnace (BF/BOF) route in long steel production has expanded from approximately 24% in fiscal 2014 to 28% in fiscal 2025 (31% in fiscal 2024). Steel manufactured using the BF/BOF route is considered to have superior tensile strength due to lower sulfur and phosphorus content. With no new steel capacities expected in the long steel sector, increasing demand is likely to support the growth of the long steel industry. 2. Price differential with substitutes (scrap): Scrap is a direct alternative to sponge iron in the steel production process, offering a higher conversion yield. In fiscal 2025, scrap prices faced downward pressure due to weak EU steel production and declining global steel prices. However, with the EU and US likely to increase their domestic steel output following amended tariff-rate quotas and import duty/tariffs, scrap availability is expected to decrease in trade markets, potentially leading to a price increase in fiscal 2026. This development would have a positive impact on sponge iron blending and is a key factor to monitor. Additionally, regulatory changes in China, such as production cuts, and scrap export policies in developed economies are crucial to watch, as they could potentially lead to an upside in the forecast. The interplay between scrap prices, steel production, and regulatory changes will be pivotal in determining the outlook for the sponge iron industry. 192 07.63 58.33 23.83 17.24 48.05 27.45 78-28 (MT) Demand: FY20-25 CAGR of 8.3% Demand:FY25-30 CAGR of 8-9% 90.00 25.00% 80.00 20.00% 19.02% 8-9% 70.00 13.20% 15.00% 60.00 7.64% 50.00 -7.77% 11.45% 10.00% 40.00 5.00% 30.00 0.00% 20.00 -5.00% 10.00 - -10.00% FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY30P Sponge Iron demand y-o-y growth(%)Sponge iron and scrap prices review (Rs/tonne) 40,000 36,875 33,333 33,779 32,799 35,000 30,000 34,033 25,000 22,500 24,033 28,158 30,163 29,018 20,000 15,000 19,192 17,046 10,000 5,000 - FY20 FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 Sponge Iron Prices Scrap prices Note: Scrap prices are excluding GST Source: Crisil Intelligence Conventionally, sponge iron prices move in tandem with scrap prices, after correcting for quality differences (the metallic yield in scrap is >90% as compared to ~85% in sponge iron). The sponge iron industry has experienced significant price fluctuations in recent years, driven by various factors. In Fiscal 2022, prices rallied by 46% year-on-year due to increased iron ore and pellet prices, as well as shortages of thermal coal and gas, which led to lower utilization rates at plants. The Russia-Ukraine crisis further exacerbated the situation, resulting in a 25% quarter-on-quarter price spike in the fourth quarter. In Fiscal 2023, prices rose by 21% year-on-year, despite low iron ore costs, as non-integrated players had procured inventory at elevated costs. However, prices corrected sharply from September to December 2022 due to cooling global demand and easing thermal coal and scrap prices. The trend reversed in January 2023, with prices gradually rising due to supply shortages caused by plant shutdowns in Odisha, a major DRI manufacturing region. Furthermore, the rollback of export duties on iron ore and pellets in November 2022 led to an increase in prices of these raw materials. Looking ahead, the industry's outlook is closely tied to the dynamics of scrap prices, which are currently under pressure due to weak EU steel production, but are likely to increase in Fiscal 2026 as the EU and US boost domestic steel output, leading to decreased scrap availability in trade markets, and potentially positively impacting sponge iron blending. Regulatory changes in China and scrap export policies in developed economies will also be crucial in determining the industry's trajectory. For fiscal 2026, prices are projected to decline to a range of Rs 27,000 to Rs 29,000 per tonne, driven by an expected 8-10% increase in supply and 8% fall in thermal coal costs. Demand review and outlook: Billets Billets consumption has largely moved in conjunction with long steel production at 7.5% CAGR during Fiscal period 2020-24.

The company benefits from a coal linkage 214agreement at subsidized rates, making its captive power generation more cost-effective than conventional sources. The cost of captive power generation is approximately ₹3.50 to ₹3.60 per unit, whereas electricity procured from the grid costs ₹7.00 to ₹7.20 per unit. Solar Power Plant Project In 2025, the company plans to install a 50 MW Solar plant to reduce its electricity load from the state government company, CSPDCL. The capital expenditure for this project is estimated to be ₹150 crores. Upon commissioning, the company expects to save approximately ₹30 crores yearly. The project will be completed in three phases, with the first phase involving the installation of 9MW, expected to be commissioned by the end of December 2025. SWOT analysis of Indian steel industry India is the 2nd largest steel producing country with a rich mineral base with abundant iron ore reserves and other raw materials required for iron & steelmaking. It enjoys certain strengths and weaknesses as detailed below: Strengths India is a mineral rich country with abundant reserves of iron ore and other raw materials required for steel making India has skilled manpower base commensurate with skill which comes at low unit labour costs India has maintained global trade relations with different countries and has emerged as top global competitor in steel industry Globally, the countries are shifting towards modern steelmaking technologies facilitating the country to meet its decarbonization targets. Indian steelmakers are also adapting to the changing technology to keep up with global competitors. Weaknesses High dependence on imports for a major raw material- coking coal required in steelmaking which is majorly sourced through Australia Steel is a capital-intensive industry, which requires funding the expansion through borrowings; India has higher cost of finance as compared to other countries such as China, Japan, and Korea High cost of energy coupled with higher duties and taxes eats into the margins of players Dependence on modernized technologies for steel manufacturing equipment’s being imported from other countries High social costs, slow statutory clearances for plant set up and other activities creates a barrier while attracting investments from foreign players to expand in India Opportunities India being a developing economy has enormous scope for increasing per capita steel consumption in its end-use sectors such as building & construction, infrastructure, automobile, packaging, engineering industries, irrigation, consumer goods, etc Huge infrastructure demand arising due to continued Government investments and rapid urbanization Indian rural sector is fairly untapped of multi-faceted uses of steel Rising steel demand in the country leading to increased investments from foreign players to set up steel-making facilities in India Threats Global economic slowdown to impact steel consumption across the globe, subdued demand and weak international prices of steel will impact Indian commodity market 215India must keep up with the technological change adopted globally to remain globally competitive Substitution by Aluminium, plastics, etc in some end-use applications Government regulations and policies imposed by individual nations to create barriers to trade SWOT analysis of Sky Alloys Strengths Sky Alloys has operations beginning from DRI making to steel manufacturing through IF which supports in reducing the cost of production They have established raw material linkage ensuring steady availability of raw materials for continuous production Availability of land presents potential to expand their facility in future Sky Alloys has developed strong skilled manpower base to manage plant operations smoothly The location of plant present opportunity to source cheap labour from nearby villages They experience strong support from the local government Efficient working capital cycle with reduced debtor days and optimized payable days Weaknesses With changing rules and regulations imposed by Central Government, the operations and business of Sky Alloys is affected similar to other players in the industry The infrastructure set up by them is inadequate in comparison to other integrated national players Sky Alloys bears a high social cost in addition to the CSR activities executed by them as it is the only plant present in the village location Expansion of DRI & Power Plant capacity depends on regulatory approvals, licenses and timely execution, which could delay benefits realization.

OUR MAJOR PRODUCTS Sr. Name & details of the Products Image of the Products No. 1. Sponge Iron Sponge iron is a refined form of iron ore with a metallic content ranging from 80% to 88%, produced through direct reduction process. The reduction is carried out in a rotary kiln, which is rotated at a specific speed at a temperature of around 800 to 1,100 degrees Celsius. The basic raw materials for the production of sponge iron are iron ore, iron ore pellets, non-coking coal (bituminous) and dolomite. It is a substitute for scrap. 2. Mild Steel Billets Mild steel billets are semi-finished steel products with a rectangular or square cross-section, designed for further processing. They are produced through continuous casting, extrusion, or by hot rolling ingots or blooms. These billets serve as a key raw material for manufacturing TMT bars and various structural steel products. 3. Ferro-Alloy products (ex: Silico Manganese) Ferro alloys are iron-based alloys with a high concentration of elements such as manganese, aluminum, or silicon, essential for steel and alloy production. These alloys enhance the mechanical properties of steel and cast iron while also playing a critical role in the manufacturing process. They are specifically used in the production of stainless steel. 4. TMT Bars: TMT Bars are engineered for excellence in construction projects. The thermo-mechanical treatment process involves rapid cooling of the hot-rolled bars, which creates a tough outer layer and a softer, more ductile inner core. This gives the TMT bars their signature characteristics of superior strength, high ductility (flexibility), and weldability, ensuring structural integrity, safety, and 223Sr. Name & details of the Products Image of the Products No. longevity in buildings, bridges, and other large-scale infrastructure. TMT Bars TMT (Thermo-Mechanically Treated) bars are high-strength reinforcement steel used widely in construction industry due to their exceptional strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance. Manufactured through a process of quenching, self- tempering, and atmospheric cooling, TMT bars feature a tough outer surface and a ductile core, making them ideal for earthquake-resistant structures. They offer superior weldability and cost- effectiveness by reducing the amount of steel needed. Commonly used in building frameworks, infrastructure projects, and reinforced concrete structures, TMT bars come in various grades (like Fe-500 and Fe- 550D) and sizes (6MM to 32MM in diameter), catering to diverse construction requirements. Our TMT Bars are available in different sizes, i.e. 8 MM, 10 MM, 12 MM, 16 MM, 20 MM, 25 MM & 32 MM.

Prakash Upadhyay, Chartered Engineer, vide certificate dated September 26, 2025 Our Integrated Operations: 20 MW Captive Power Plant A key component of our integrated business model and a significant competitive advantage is our two Captive Power Plants ("CPP"), located at our Manufacturing Unit in Raigarh, Chhattisgarh. The steel manufacturing process is highly energy-intensive, and our in-house power generation capabilities provide us with a reliable and cost-effective supply of electricity, substantially reducing our dependence on the state grid and mitigating the impact of volatile electricity tariffs. Our CPP is engineered with a combination of two efficient technologies that are synergistically linked to our core steel- making operations: Waste Heat Recovery Boilers and an Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion Boiler. 1. Waste Heat Recovery Boilers (8 MW) The foundation of our captive power generation is a set of four Waste Heat Recovery Boilers, each with a capacity of 2 MW, providing a total of 8 MW of power. This technology is directly integrated with our sponge iron (DRI) kilns and represents a highly efficient and environmentally responsible method of power generation. The process of producing sponge iron generates a massive volume of high-temperature waste gases (flue gases) that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere. Our Waste Heat Recovery Boilers system is designed to capture these hot gases and channel them through specialized boilers. The intense heat from these gases is used to boil water and produce high-pressure steam, which in turn drives a turbine to generate electricity. The primary strategic advantage of this system is that it generates valuable electricity from a waste heat stream, without requiring any additional fuel. This process provides us with a source of low-cost power, significantly reduces our overall carbon footprint, and improves the overall thermal efficiency of our integrated plant. 2282. Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion (AFBC) Boiler (12 MW) To supplement our power generation and meet the balance of our energy requirements, we operate a 12 MW Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion Boiler. This technology is renowned for its high combustion efficiency and, most importantly, its fuel flexibility. The Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion boiler can efficiently burn a wide variety of solid fuels, including low-grade coal, coal fines, and, critically, industrial by-products from our steel-making process, such as dolochar (the carbon-rich residue from our sponge iron kilns). By utilizing dolochar and other low-cost fuels, the Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion boiler allows us to convert an industrial by-product into electricity, further enhancing our operational self- sufficiency and creating value from waste. Together, our Waste Heat Recovery Boilers and Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion boiler systems form a robust and cost-effective 20 MW Captive Power Plant that ensures a reliable supply of energy for our entire integrated steel plant. This strategic asset is integral to our business model, providing us with a critical edge in managing costs and ensuring operational stability in the competitive steel market. iii) MANUFACTURING PROCESS Raw Material Procurement and Handling: The manufacturing process commences with the procurement of high-quality raw materials. The primary inputs are: 1. Iron Ore: Sourced in the form of calibrated lump ore or high-grade iron ore pellets. 2. Non-Coking Coal: Used as a reductant in the sponge iron manufacturing process. 3. Dolomite: Utilized as a flux for removing impurities. Upon arrival at our facility, these materials undergo quality inspection and are systematically stored to ensure a consistent and reliable feed for the subsequent production stages. Production of Direct Reduced Iron (Sponge Iron): The sourced iron ore, along with coal and dolomite, is fed into our DRI (Direct Reduced Iron) Plant. This plant operates a rotary kiln, which is central to producing our primary metallic input. Inside the kiln, the iron ore is heated to a controlled high temperature. The coal acts as a reducing agent, removing oxygen from the iron ore in its solid state. This solid-state reduction process converts the ore into high-purity metallic iron known as Sponge Iron. Its porous, sponge-like texture gives it its name. The quality of sponge iron produced here is critical for the efficiency and quality of the subsequent steel-making process. Flowchart of Manufacturing Process of TMT Bars : 229Steel Making in the Induction Furnace: The high-grade sponge iron is then transferred to our Steel Melting Shop (SMS), where the core steel-making activity takes place in an Induction Furnace. 1. Charging and Melting: The Induction Furnace is charged with a precisely calculated mix of our captive sponge iron, high-quality steel scrap, and various ferroalloys. A powerful electric current passed through a copper coil generates a strong magnetic field, which induces eddy currents within the charge. This process, known as electromagnetic induction, generates intense heat and melts the metallic charge efficiently without direct contact with a heat source. 2. Refining and Alloying: Once the charge is molten, the liquid steel (or "hot metal") undergoes a refining process. Fluxes are added to remove impurities, which are separated as slag. The chemical composition is fine-tuned by adding specific ferroalloys to achieve the exact grade of steel required. Samples are drawn and tested in our lab to ensure the melt meets all prescribed chemical and physical parameters before it is approved for tapping. Continuous Casting of Steel Billets: The refined liquid steel is tapped from the furnace into a ladle and transported to the Continuous Billet Caster. This modern casting method ensures superior quality of the semi-finished product. The molten steel is poured into a water-cooled copper mould, where it begins to solidify, forming a continuous steel strand. This strand is steadily withdrawn from the mould, guided by rollers, and is further cooled by direct water sprays. Once fully solidified, the strand is cut by automatic shears into pre-determined lengths, forming steel Billets. Continuous casting yields billets that are uniform in their chemical composition and internal structure, providing an ideal input for the Rolling Mill. Hot Rolling and Thermo-Mechanical Treatment (TMT): In the final stage, the steel billets are converted into high-strength SKY TMT reinforcement bars in our automated Rolling Mill. 1. Rolling of Hot Billets: Hot Billets are transferred from Continuous Billet caster to the Rolling Mill plant. The hot billets are then passed through a sequence of rolling stands, which progressively reduce their cross-sectional area and elongate them, shaping them into the final size of the TMT bar. 2. The Thermex® Process: As the hot bar exits the final rolling stand, it undergoes a specialized, three-stage thermo- mechanical treatment: a) Quenching: The bar travels through a high-pressure water-Cooling Chamber, which rapidly cools its surface. This hardens the surface layer, transforming its microstructure into strong Martensite. The core, however, 230remains hot and soft (Austenite). b) Self-Tempering: As the bar is laid on the Cooling Bed, the heat from the hot core flows outward to the cooled surface. This heat tempers the hard martensitic layer, forming a refined and ductile grain structure known as Tempered Martensite. This process enhances ductility while retaining high strength. c) Atmospheric Cooling: Finally, the entire bar cools naturally in the ambient air. During this slow cooling, the soft austenitic core transforms into a ductile Ferrite-Pearlite structure. This sophisticated treatment creates a unique composite microstructure in every SKY TMT bar: a tough, high-strength outer surface of tempered martensite and a ductile, shock-absorbing inner core of ferrite-pearlite. This gives our TMT bars their characteristic superior strength, high elongation, and excellent bendability, making them perfectly suited for earthquake-resistant construction and modern infrastructure projects. DETAILED PROCESS Detailed Process Inside an Induction Furnace: The operational cycle of the induction furnace begins with the preparation of its internal crucible, which is fortified with a durable monolithic refractory lining known as ramming mass. Raw materials, which are strategically stockpiled in proximity to the furnace to optimize operational workflow, are metered according to precise formulations. These materials are then efficiently loaded into the furnace using an electromagnet attached to an Electric Overhead Traveling (EOT) crane. This mechanized charging system is integral to our operations, facilitating the rapid loading of materials while significantly enhancing operator safety and reducing manual labour requirements. Detailed Melting Process: The core of our steel-making process occurs when the charged raw materials are melted within the induction furnace. Our facility utilizes solid-state power converters which supply a high-frequency alternating current (typically 250 to 500 Hz) to a water-cooled copper coil that encircles the furnace crucible. This energized coil generates a powerful magnetic field that penetrates the metallic charge. The field induces strong electrical eddy currents directly within the scrap and sponge iron, and the material's natural resistance to these currents generates intense and uniform heat, raising the temperature to approximately 1600°C and melting the charge. This electromagnetic induction process creates a natural stirring effect within the molten bath, which ensures a homogeneous mixture of all components and eliminates the need for manual stirring. As the charge melts, reactive impurities like silica form a liquid slag that floats to the surface. This slag layer serves a dual purpose: it absorbs impurities from the melt and shields the molten steel from atmospheric oxidation. 231To maintain operational efficiency, additional charge is added as the volume melts down. We are further enhancing productivity and safety by integrating systems such as a radio remote-controlled scrap poker and a dedicated stationary crane on the furnace platform. Throughout the melting phase, a rigorous quality control protocol is followed. A sample of the molten steel is extracted for spectrographic analysis. Based on the laboratory report, precise quantities of ferroalloys and other additives are introduced to the melt to fine-tune its chemical composition. This iterative process of testing and adjustment is repeated until the steel meets the exact grade specifications. Once the desired chemistry and temperature are achieved, verified by an immersion pyrometer, the molten steel is tapped. The furnace's hydraulic tilting system pours the liquid metal into a pre-heated refractory ladle, where final fluxes may be added. The operation is run continuously to conserve thermal energy and preserve the integrity of the furnace's refractory lining. Detailed Continuous Casting Process: In the continuous casting stage, the liquid steel is transformed into semi-finished billets, a process that significantly improves yield, product quality, and cost-efficiency. This method provides superior process control through automation and eliminates the need for intermediate heating and storage steps. The operation commences with the transfer of the ladle containing molten steel to a rotating turret positioned above the casting machine. This turret system allows for a seamless switch between ladles, ensuring an uninterrupted flow of metal and enabling a truly continuous operation. The ladle pours the steel into a tundish, a critical metallurgical vessel that acts as a buffer. The tundish regulates the flow of metal into the moulds, providing a stable stream while allowing any remaining non-metallic inclusions to float into its slag layer, further refining the steel's purity. From the tundish, the molten steel passes through a shroud into an open-base, water-cooled copper mould. To prevent the solidifying steel from sticking to the mould walls, the mould oscillates vertically. Concurrently, a lubricating mould powder is automatically fed onto the metal's surface. This powder melts to create a lubricating film and absorbs any remaining impurities. It is in this primary cooling stage that a thin, solid shell of steel is formed. As the strand, with its liquid core, exits the mould, it enters the secondary cooling zone. Here, it is guided by a series of support rolls that counteract the ferrostatic pressure from within. The strand is simultaneously sprayed with a controlled mist of air and water, which facilitates gradual and uniform solidification through to its core. This controlled cooling is essential for developing a sound internal grain structure free from defects. Following solidification, the strand is guided through a continuous straightener and a withdrawal unit. An in-line hot billet shearing machine then cuts the moving strand into predetermined lengths with high precision. These finished billets are conveyed to a cooling bed, which accommodates the output of the caster and synchronizes it with the operational schedule of the Rolling Mill 232Detailed Process of Billet to TMT Bars: 1. Roughing Mill: Following the continuous casting process, the hot steel billets are transferred to the Roughing Mill, which marks the initial phase of the hot rolling process. The primary objective of this stage is significant cross- sectional area reduction. As the billet passes through a series of synchronized rolling stands, it is progressively elongated, and its thickness is reduced. To ensure continuous forward movement of the heated billet between stands, driven pinch rolls are utilized, which apply precise pressure to grip and propel the billet. The entry of the billet into each successive rolling stand is ensured by precision guideways that accurately direct its leading end. 2. Intermediate Mill: After exiting the roughing stands, the elongated bar proceeds to the Intermediate Mill for further dimensional reduction. As the bar's length increases, its velocity must also increase proportionately. Therefore, the mill is engineered with drive systems capable of matching this accelerating speed to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted flow. Positioned between the intermediate and finishing mills is an in-line shear. This automated shear performs "cropping," a critical process that trims the colder, and potentially inconsistent, front and tail ends of the bar. This step is essential for ensuring that only material of uniform quality and temperature enters the final rolling stage. 3. Finishing Mill: The Finishing Mill represents the final stage of hot deformation, where the bar is rolled to its final, precise dimensions and surface profile. This section of the mill consists of high-precision rollers, often housed in advanced cantilever stands that enhance rolling stability and dimensional accuracy. The entire process is meticulously calibrated to ensure that the final product consistently meets the stringent quality and tolerance specifications mandated by national standards, such as those set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). 4. Quenching Process (TMT Box): Upon exiting the final stand of the finishing mill, the hot-rolled bar immediately enters a quenching box for a critical thermo-mechanical treatment. This process involves subjecting the bar's surface to intense, controlled water spraying. This rapid cooling, or quenching, is a form of heat treatment that alters the steel's microstructure. It arrests the natural crystalline transformation on the surface, forming a hard, wear-resistant layer known as Martensite. The contraction of this hardened outer shell exerts a significant compressive force on the bar's core, which remains hot and austenitic. 5. Atmospheric Cooling On Atmospheric Bed: The bars are then transferred onto an automated cooling bed. Here, they are allowed to cool gradually in the ambient air. During this Atmospheric Cooling stage, the hot austenitic core transforms into a soft, ductile crystalline structure known as Ferrite-Pearlite. This final step completes the creation of the composite microstructure a tough, high-strength exterior of Tempered Martensite and a ductile, flexible core of Ferrite-Pearlite that gives TMT bars their characteristic combination of strength and elongation. 2336. Self-Tempering: After leaving the quenching box, a significant temperature gradient exists across the bar's cross- section. In a process known as Self-Tempering, residual heat from the hot austenitic core flows outward toward the cooler surface. This flow of heat acts as an in-situ tempering process, transforming the brittle surface layer of Martensite into a refined and more ductile microstructure called Tempered Martensite. This refined outer layer provides the bar with exceptionally high tensile strength while improving its toughness. 7. Finishing & Cutting: Once the bars have cooled, they are processed by an in-line flying shear. This automated system is synchronized with the speed of the production line and is guided by computer controls to ensure that the bars are cut into precise, standardized lengths. This method of cutting is highly efficient and does not interrupt the continuous flow of production from the cooling bed. 8. Bundling & Dispatch: In the final stage, the cut-to-length and fish bend TMT bars are automatically collected and securely strapped into bundles of standard weight or quantity. Each bundle is then tagged for clear identification of its grade, size, and other specifications. The finished bundles are subsequently transferred to our storage yard, from where they are organized and prepared for final dispatch to our customers. Detailed Process of Ferro Alloy Production – Silico Manganese: The manufacturing of Silico Manganese is a precise metallurgical process centered around the Submerged Arc Furnace 234(SAF). The process is anchored by the principle of carbothermic reduction within specialized furnaces. 1. Raw Material Procurement and Preparation: The process begins with the sourcing of high-quality raw materials. Our primary input, manganese ore, is procured from the rich mineral deposits of Balaghat, Maharashtra, a region renowned for its superior grade ore. Other critical inputs include quartz (as a source of silica), and carbonaceous reductants like coke and coal. These materials are meticulously weighed and blended in precise ratios to form the furnace charge, ensuring the desired chemical composition of the final product. 2. Smelting in Submerged Arc Furnace (SAF): The prepared charge is fed into the Submerged Arc Furnace. Within the SAF, high-tension carbon electrodes are submerged into the raw material mix. An electric current is passed through these electrodes, creating an intense arc that generates temperatures exceeding 2,000°C. This extreme heat initiates the carbothermic reduction process, where the carbon in the coke and coal strips oxygen from the manganese and silicon oxides. This chemical reaction liberates the metals, which then combine to form a molten alloy of Silico Manganese. 3. Tapping and Finishing: As the reaction progresses, molten Silico Manganese and a lighter, liquid by-product called slag accumulate at the furnace hearth. At regular intervals, a tap-hole is opened to drain these liquids. Due to its higher density, the molten Silico Manganese is tapped first into refractory-lined ladles, effectively separating it from the slag. The molten alloy is then cast into large, flat moulds where it cools and solidifies. Finally, these solid slabs of Silico Manganese are crushed, screened, and sized according to specific customer requirements before being packaged for dispatch.

We do not have any long-term, fixed-price contractual agreements with truck unions or transport operators. WATER RESOURCES Water is a critical input for our integrated manufacturing operations. Our access to a stable and sufficient water supply is secured through a long-term arrangement with the Government of Chhattisgarh, ensuring operational continuity. Our right to draw water is established by a formal sanction from the Water Resources Department, Government of Chhattisgarh to draw up to 0.28 million cubic meters of water annually from the Mand River. Pursuant to this sanction, we entered into a definitive water supply agreement, No. 1285/Work/2017, on May 1, 2017. Our sourcing infrastructure includes an intake well on the banks of the Mand River, from which water is drawn via pumps and pipelines into a dedicated reservoir within our plant premises. Thewater undergoes a chemical treatment process to reduce hardness, making it suitable for our high-temperature industrial applications. This treated water is then strategically distributed to our power generation and steel manufacturing units. The treated water is utilized across our integrated facility as follows: 1) Power Plant: Water is essential to our captive power generation. It is converted into high-pressure steam in our Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion Boiler, which then drives a turbine to produce electricity. 2) Steel Plant: Water is fundamental for cooling and process control across our steel manufacturing value chain, ensuring equipment safety, longevity, and final product quality. 3) Sponge Iron Plant: Utilized for cooling the rotary kiln shell to maintain its structural integrity and for cooling the hot sponge iron upon discharge. 4) Ferro Alloy Plant: Critical for the intensive cooling of our submerged arc furnaces, including the furnace shell and electrode holders, which operate at extreme temperatures. 2415) Induction Furnace: Essential for heat dissipation from the electromagnetic coils of the induction furnace during the melting of scrap and sponge iron, preventing equipment failure. 6) Rolling Mill: Serves the dual purpose of cooling the rollers to preserve their lifespan and accuracy, and for the controlled quenching of finished products like TMT bars to achieve desired metallurgical properties.

B BASIS OF PREPARATION The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to the periods presented in the Restated Consolidated Financial Statement. These Restated Consolidated Financial Statement have been prepared on a going concern basis. C BASIS OR MEASUREMENT The Restated Consolidated Financial Statement has been prepared on a historical cost convention, except for the following: (i) Employee's defined benefit plan at fair value of plan assets less present value of defined benefit obligation determined as per actuarial valuation; and (ii) Certain financial assets and liabilities that are qualified to be measured at fair value. D CURRENT & NON-CURRENT CLASSIFICATION The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non current classification. An asset is classified as current when it is: - Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle, - Held primarily for the purpose of trading, - Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting year, or - Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting year. All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is classified as current when it is: - Expected to be settled in normal operating cycle, - Held primarily for the purpose of trading, - Due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting year, or - There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting year. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and non-current liabilities. The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Group has identified twelve months as its operating cycle E FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATIONAL CURRENCCY TheRestatedConsolidatedFinancialStatementhasbeenpresentedinIndianRupees(Rs.orINR),whichisalsothecompany'sfunctionalcurrency.Allamountshavebeenrounded-offtothenearest millions and decimals thereof, unless otherwise mentioned.

Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows: - Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. - Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). - Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

H PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The Consolidated Financial Statements comprise the financial statements of the Parent Company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures, joint operations and associate (collectively referred as “the Group”). Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control as above. The financial statements of subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of their acquisition, being the date on which the group obtains control and continue to be consolidated until the date that control ceases. Assets, liabilities, income, expenses, cash flow and equity of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the reporting period are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. When the Company loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and (ii) the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary. All amounts previously recognized in Other Comprehensive Income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable Ind AS). Profit or Loss and each component of Other Comprehensive Income are attributed to the owners of the Parent Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. When necessary, adjustments are made to the Consolidated Financial Statements w.r.t. subsidiaries, associate, joint operations and joint ventures to bring their accounting policies in line with the Group’s accounting policies, if material. Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entities but is not control or joint control over those policies. Investments in associate and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognised at cost and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the investor’s share of profit or loss of investee after the acquisition date, less distributions received and less any impairment in value of the investment. 2.2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) PROPERTY , PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Recognition and measurement Property, Plant and equipment are measured at cost (which includes capitalised borrowing costs) less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises: a) its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates. b) any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management. c) the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

Derecognition of financial assets The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. 298Sky Alloys and Power Limited (Formerly known as Sky Alloys and Power Private Limited) NOTES TO RESTATED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION FINANCIAL LIABILITIES Classification The Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following measurement categories: - those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit and loss-[FVTPL]; and - those measured at amortised cost. [AC] Initial recognition and measurement Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or at amortised cost. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, lease liabilities, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and liability component of convertible instruments. Subsequent measurement The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below: Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss [FVTPL] Financialliabilitiesatfairvaluethroughprofitorloss[FVTPL]includefinancialliabilitiesdesignateduponinitialrecognitionasatfairvaluethroughprofitorloss.Financialliabilitiesareclassified asheldfortradingiftheyareincurredforthepurposeofrepurchasinginthenearterm.ThiscategoryalsoincludesderivativefinancialinstrumentsenteredintobytheGroupthatarenotdesignated ashedginginstrumentsinhedgerelationshipsasdefinedbyIndAS109.Separatedembeddedderivativesarealsoclassifiedasheldfortradingunlesstheyaredesignatedaseffectivehedging instruments.

Gains andlosses arerecognised in RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS. This category generally applies to borrowings.

Revenueismeasuredbasedonthetransactionprice,whichistheconsideration,adjustedfordiscountsandclaims,ifany,asspecifiedinthecontractwiththecustomer.Revenuealsoexcludestaxes collected from customers. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognized. The Group has a Two stream of revenue i.e. Sale of products & Sale of services TheGrouprecognisesrevenueatapointintimewhentheperformanceobligationissatisfied,i.e.when‘control’ofthegoodsunderlyingtheparticularperformanceobligationaretransferredtothe customer.In case of domestic sales, the Group believes that the control gets transferred to the customer on dispatch of the goods from the factory as per the terms of contract /incoterms.. Further, revenue from sale of goods is recognised based on a 5-Step Methodology which is as follows: Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation (ii) Sale of service The Group assesses the services promised in a contract and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct performance obligations to determine the deliverables and the ability of the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables, and allocation of transaction price to these distinct performance obligations involves significant judgment. (iii) Variable consideration The Group estimate the amount of consideration to which the company will be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to a customer, if the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount. An amount of consideration can vary because of discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price concessions, incentives, performance bonuses, or other similar items. The promised consideration can also vary if Group entitlement to the consideration is contingent on the occurrence or non-occurrence of a future event. The Group recognises rebates and discount net of sale of products for respective year. (v) Contract Balances Trade Receivables : A receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional.

In calculating interest income and expense, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of the asset (when the asset is not credit-impaired) or to the amortised cost of the liability. However,forfinancialassetsthathavebecomecredit-impairedsubsequenttoinitialrecognition,interestincomeiscalculatedbyapplyingtheeffectiveinterestratetotheamortisedcostofthe financial asset. If the asset is no longer credit-impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis. Dividend income is recognised in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS on the date on which the Group’s right to receive payment is established.

In which case, the tax is also recognised in the other comprehensive income or in equity. (i) Current tax Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, based on tax rates and laws that are enacted or subsequently enacted at the Balance sheet date. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Group: a) has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and b) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current tax provision is computed for income calculated after considering allowances and exemptions under the provisions of the applicable Income Tax Laws. Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are off set, and presented as net. (ii) Deferred tax DeferredtaxisrecognisedontemporarydifferencesbetweenthecarryingamountsofassetsandliabilitiesintheRestatedConsolidatedFinancialStatementandthecorrespondingtaxbasesusedin the computation of taxable profit.

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if: a) the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and b) The Deferred Tax Assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable Group. Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS as current tax. The company recognizes MAT credit available as an asset only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax during the specified period i.e. the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the year in which the company recognizes MAT credit as an asset in accordance with the GN on accounting for Credit Available in respect of Minimum Alternate Tax under the Income Tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by way of credit to the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS and shown as "MAT Credit Entitlement." The company reviews the "MATcreditentitlement"assetateachreportingdateand ritesdo ntheassettotheetentthecompan doesnothaeconincingeidencethatit illpa normalta dringthespecifiedperiod (p) BORROWING COSTS Borrowing costs include: (i) interest expense calculated using the effective interest rate method; (ii) finance charges in respect of leases; and (iii) exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs. Borrowingcostsdirectlyattributabletotheacquisition,constructionorproductionofqualifyingassets,whichareassetsthatnecessarilytakeasubstantialperiodoftimetogetreadyfortheirintended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. All other borrowing costs are recognised in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS in the period in which they are incurred. 301Sky Alloys and Power Limited (Formerly known as Sky Alloys and Power Private Limited) NOTES TO RESTATED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION (q) LEASES TheGroupassesseswhetheracontractisorcontainsalease,atinceptionofacontract.Acontractis,orcontains,aleaseifthecontractconveystherighttocontroltheuseofanidentifiedassetfora period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Group has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Group has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Group also applied the available practical expedients wherein it: • Used a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics • Relied on its assessment of whether leases are onerous immediately before the date of initial application • Excluded the initial direct costs from the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application • Used hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contained options to extend or terminate the lease Right-of-use assets TheGrouprecognizesright-of-useassetsatthecommencementdateofthelease(i.e.,thedatetheunderlyingassetisavailableforuse).Right-of-useassetsaremeasuredatcost,lessanyaccumulated depreciationandimpairmentlosses,andadjustedforanyremeasurementofleaseliabilities.Thecostofright-of-useassetsincludestheamountofleaseliabilitiesrecognized,initialdirectcosts incurred,andleasepaymentsmadeatorbeforethecommencementdatelessanyleaseincentivesreceived.Right-ofuseassetsaredepreciatedonastraight-linebasisovertheshorteroftheleaseterm and the estimated useful lives of the assets.

(r) PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES & ASSETS Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using equivalent period government securities interest rate. Unwinding of the discount is recognised in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Information on contingent liability is disclosed in the Notes to the Restated Consolidated Financial Statement. Contingent assets are not recognised. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, but it is recognised as an asset.

The Group does not have any outstanding balance in foreign currencies and hence it is not exposed to foreign currency risk. 332Sky Alloys and Power Limited (Formerly known as Sky Alloys and Power Private Limited) CIN: U27100CT2009PLC021184 NOTES TO RESTATED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 (ii) Price risk The Group is mainly exposed to the price risk due to its key raw materials which includes mainly coal and iron ore from the domestic markets. The price risk arises due to uncertainties about the future market values. The Group has laid policies and guidelines which it adheres to in order to minimise price risk. Particulars As at March 31, As at March 31, As at March 31, 2025 2024 2023 Inventory - Coal 312.22 236.17 278.73 Inventory - Iron ore 423.56 321.65 390.63 735.78 557.82 669.36 Sensitivity analysis: 1% increase in prices Profit or (Loss) (7.36) (5.58) (6.69) 1% decrease in prices Profit or (Loss) 7.36 5.58 6.69 (iii) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk can be either fair value interest rate risk or cash flow interest rate risk. Fair value interest rate risk is the risk of changes in fair values of fixed interest bearing investments. Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of floating interest bearing investments will fluctuate because of fluctuations in the interest rates. The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. During March 31, 2023, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025 the Group’s borrowings at variable rate were denominated in INR. The Group’s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market The interest rate profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments as reported to the management of the Group is as follows. Particulars As at March 31, As at March 31, As at March 31, 2025 2024 2023 Fixed-rate instruments Financial liabilities 534.77 349.33 323.33 Variable-rate instruments Financial liabilities 1,246.47 1,436.44 993.40 Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable-rate instruments A reasonably possible change of 100 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased / decreased profit or loss by amounts shown below. This analyses assumes that all other variables, in particular, foreign currency exchange rates, remain constant. This calculation also assumes that the change occurs at the balance sheet date and has been calculated based on risk exposures outstanding as at that date. The year end balances are not necessarily representative of the average debt outstanding during the year.

Notes to first-time adoption and Ind AS Adjustment/Restatement : Note 1: Leases Ind AS 116 standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to recognise most leases on the balance sheet. The Company adopted Ind AS 116 using the prospective method of adoption with date of initial application of 1 April 2022 being the date of transition and rolled back impact on leases more than 1 year, if any as on April 1, 2022. This resulted in to recognition of right-of-use assets,lease liabilities and consequent changes in the restated statement of profit and loss and cashflows for March 31, 2025. Also, interest free lease security deposits were recorded at their transaction value under the Indian GAAP. However, under IndAS, all material financial assets are required to be recognised at fair value, if any.

Ind AS 12 requires entities to account for deferred taxes using the balance sheet approach, which focuses on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base. The application of Ind AS 12 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new temporary differences which was not required under Indian GAAP. In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to temporary differences. According to the accounting policies, the Comapny has to account for such differences. Deferred tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in retained earnings or a separate component of equity. 337Sky Alloys and Power Limited (Formerly known as Sky Alloys and Power Private Limited) ANNEXURE - VII NOTES TO RESTATED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 (Amount in INR Millions, unless other wise stated) Restated Statement of Profit and Loss As at March 31, 2025 As at March 31, 2024 As at March 31, 2023 Income tax effect 2.46 (16.93) 2.55 (Amount in INR Millions, unless other wise stated) Restated Statement of Assets and Liabilities As at March 31, 2025 As at March 31, 2024 As at March 31, 2023 Tax effects of adjustments (11.93) (14.39) 2.53 Note 3: Remeasurements of post-employment benefit obligations Under Ind AS, remeasurements i.e. actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined benefit liability are recognised in other comprehensive income instead of profit or loss. Under the previous GAAP, these remeasurements were forming part of the profit or loss for the year. Restated Statement of Profit and Loss As at March 31, 2023 As at March 31, 2023 As at March 31, 2023 Remeasurement of gains (losses) on defined benefit plans (1.10) (15.70) 0.07 Gratuity expense 1.10 15.70 (0.07) Income tax effect 0.28 3.95 (0.02) Note 4: Trade and Other Receivables Under Previous GAAP, provision for doubtful trade receivables was recognised under an incurred loss model. Under Ind AS, an allowance for trade receivable are recognized using the expected credit loss model. Accordingly, an allowance for expected credit loss model has been recognised in the restated standalone financial statements. The impact of INR (0.44) Millions, INR (0.13) Millions, INR (1.43) Millions for the year ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively has been recognized in the restated standalone statement of profit and loss. Note 5: Retained earnings Retained earnings has been adjusted consequent to the above Ind AS transition adjustments and restated adjustments. Note 6: Other comprehensive income Under Ind AS, all items of income and expense recognised in a period should be included in profit or loss for the period, unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expense that are not recognised in profit or loss but are shown in the restated standalone statement of profit and loss as ‘other comprehensive income’ includes remeasurements of defined benefit plans. The concept of other comprehensive income did not exist under previous GAAP. Note 7: Financial Guarantees Under Ind AS, financial guarantees is received by the lenders of the comapny from subsidiaries and a related party are initially deducted from borrowings which is subsequently amortised as Interest Expense to the Statement of Profit and Loss. This transaction was not recorded under the previous GAAP. Note 8: Borrowing Ind AS 109 requires transaction costs incurred towards origination of borrowings to be deducted from the carrying amount of borrowings on initial recognition. These costs are recognised in the profit or loss over the tenure of the borrowing as part of the interest expense by applying the effective interest rate method. Under previous GAAP, these transaction costs were charged to profit or loss as and when incurred.

The company commenced operations in 2011 with the installation of its first DRI plant in Raigarh, Chhattisgarh and has since undertaken expansion and capital investments to enhance its manufacturing capacity, including the installation of a rolling mill for TMT bar production in March 2024. Its product portfolio includes Sponge Iron, MS Billets, TMT Bars, and Ferro Alloys, such as Silico Manganese and Pig Iron, with sponge iron from its DRI plant used for crude steel production through the IF route. Sky Alloys' manufacturing units hold certifications, including ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 The table below shows our revenue from operations by sale of TMT Bars, MS Billets , Silico Managanese for the period / fiscal indicated: (₹ in million) Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 % of % of % of Volume Product revenues Volume revenues Volume revenues (MT) Amount Amount Amount from (MT) from (MT) from operation operation operation TMT bars 68,583 3,011.59 39.36 5,578 237.09 4.16 - - - MS Billets 88,189 3,550.20 46.87 1,17,705 4,890.05 85.82 67,833 3,207.46 72.08 Sponge 30,416 834.27 11.02 12,280 364.08 6.39 18,263 591.39 14.65 Iron 347Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 % of % of % of Volume Product revenues Volume revenues Volume revenues (MT) Amount Amount Amount from (MT) from (MT) from operation operation operation Silico 2,882 208.58 2.75 2,997 206.93 3.63 7,541 652.02 13.29 Manganes e Total 1,90,069 7,573.89 1,38,560 5,698.15 93,637 4,450.07 The domestic steel industry demand logged a CAGR of 8.7% between fiscals 2020 and 2025, reaching 152 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) in fiscal 2025 from 100.2 MTPA in fiscal 2020. The spurt in demand is attributable to the aggregate effect of growth in the automobile, infrastructure and construction sectors during the period. In fiscal 2021, the domestic demand dipped 5% on-year to 94.9 MT owing to pandemic led disruptions. However, with the resumption of economic activities, the domestic finished steel demand grew on-year by 11% to 105.8 MT in fiscal 2022. In fiscal 2023, the recovery continued as domestic steel demand grew 13% on-year to 119.9 MTPA owing to a continuous pent-up demand in key end-use sectors and a revival of consumer sentiments post the pandemic. In fiscal 2024, the domestic demand for finished steel further increased ~14% on-year, owing to higher demand from the automobile sector on account of higher disposable income; housing and construction sector, led by government’s affordable housing schemes; and government-led capital expenditure in the infrastructure segment in the run-up to the 2024 general elections. Demand for domestic finished steel further increased by 12% on -year to 152 MT per annum in fiscal 2025, driven by strong demand from building and construction, infrastructure and capital goods sectors. Demand for long and flat steel is estimated to have increased at a similar CAGR of 8-9% between fiscals 2020 and 2025. While demand growth for flat steel was supported by the automobile and construction segments, that for long steel was fuelled by the infrastructure development sector. Demand for domestic steel is expected to log a CAGR of 7.5-8.5% over fiscals 2025-30, reaching 210-230 MT, led by healthy growth prospects in the building and construction, infrastructure, and automobile sectors, boosted by government’s National Steel Policy, 2017.

Over fiscals 2025-30, demand for steel from the segment is expected to clock a CAGR of 7-9%, driven by – The government’s focus on affordable housing – Robust rural housing demand against the backdrop of the government’s ongoing focus on rural development and higher minimum support prices – Improvement in urban housing demand owing to increased commercialisation of tier-3 and tier-4 cities, led by better infrastructure connectivity 348• Infrastructure The infrastructure segment is the second-largest consumer of steel and accounts for 30-32% of the aggregate finished steel demand and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8-10% between fiscals 2025-2030. The sub-segments of roads, highways, and railways (including metros) cumulatively contribute to 50-55% of domestic finished steel demand coming from the infrastructure segment. Healthy demand from the sector is expected to persist, driven by increasing developmental activities and the swift pace of execution in steel-intensive segments such as railways. Other significant contributors include the irrigation, dams, water supply and sanitation sectors. • Engineering and packaging This sector accounts for 24-26% of aggregate finished steel demand. The engineering and packaging industry is expected to log a CAGR of 7-8% between fiscals 2025 and 2030 owing to increasing disposable income levels, expanding e- commerce, and a growing emphasis on sustainability. • Automotive The automotive sector accounts for 6-7% of aggregate finished steel demand. Despite a slowdown in fiscal 2022, the following fiscal witnessed resolution of supply-side issues and improved consumer sentiment, thereby fuelling growth in the sector. The industry is expected to log a CAGR of 8-9% between fiscals 2025 and 2030 owing to growing preference for personal vehicles, easy financing options, improving living standards and income levels of rural as well as urban population. Sky Alloys has outlined its plans to enhance its manufacturing capabilities and increase efficiency. The company has set up a rolling mill with a production capacity of 95,000 TPA for in-house TMT bar manufacturing. It also plans to expand its DRI unit by an additional 60,000 MTPA and increase its captive power generation capacity by 50MW Solar Power plant and 4MW Thermal Power. Additionally, Sky Alloys has upgraded its captive power infrastructure, including the installation of a 22MW turbine, to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs. These plans aim to support the company's growth and operations. In terms of cost optimization, Sky Alloys has recently upgraded its captive turbine from 16MW to 22MW, which is expected to result in a gross monthly savings of approximately ₹2 crore. The company benefits from a coal linkage agreement at subsidized rates, making its captive power generation more cost-effective than conventional sources. The cost of captive power generation is approximately ₹3.50 to ₹3.60 per unit, whereas electricity procured from the grid costs ₹7.00 to ₹7.20 per unit. Solar Power Plant Project In 2025, the company plans to install a 50 MW Solar plant to reduce its electricity load from the state government company, CSPDCL. The capital expenditure for this project is estimated to be ₹150 crores. Upon commissioning, the company expects to save approximately ₹30 crores yearly.

FACTORS AFFECTING OUR RESULT OF OPERATIONS Except as otherwise stated in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus and the Risk Factors given in Red Herring Prospectus, the following important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations include, among others: Loss of any of our suppliers or a failure by our suppliers to deliver some of our primary raw materials Our ability to remain competitive, maintain competitive costs and profitability depend, in part, on our ability to source and maintain a stable and sufficient supply of raw materials at acceptable prices. We procure some of our primary raw 350materials, such as (i) iron ore and coal on a purchase order basis; and (ii) scrap is purchased locally and we have not entered into any long term contracts for the supply of such raw materials. The table below sets forth our cost of materials for Fiscal Year ended 2025, 2024 and 2023: Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 % of % of % of Particulars Amount (₹ revenue Amount (₹ revenue Amount (₹ revenue in millions) from in millions) from in millions) from operations operations operations Cost of Material 4373.43 53.38% 5028.08 79.85% 4389.46 79.28% Consumed List of Top 10 Suppliers Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Particulars Amount (₹ in % of Amount (₹ % of Amount (₹ in % of millions) Supplies in millions) Supplies millions) Supplies Top 10 suppliers 3467.49 56.57% 1704.69 37.75 % 1871.84 47.38% Our dependence on short-term arrangements exposes us to risks such as volatility in commodity prices, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, climatic and environmental factors, variations in production and transportation costs, as well as changes in domestic and international trade policies, regulatory requirements, and sanctions. The absence of long-term supply contracts also limits our ability to accurately predict market conditions, which could lead to procurement of inadequate quantities of raw materials. The success of our operations is therefore reliant on maintaining strong and reliable relationships with our suppliers. Any disruption in supply, loss of a key supplier, or failure to procure primary raw materials such as billets or coal on time could adversely impact our ability to continue manufacturing operations without interruption and to deliver products to our customers as scheduled. Further, restrictions on imports or increases in shipping costs may negatively affect our cost structure and operating results. Our reliance on a select group of suppliers may also constrain our bargaining power, potentially impacting our ability to procure uninterrupted raw material supplies on favourable terms. Although we maintain inventory buffers to reduce the risk of irregular supply, any inability to procure raw materials of requisite quality, in sufficient quantity, or at acceptable prices could disrupt production, delay delivery cycles, increase costs, reduce output, and hinder our ability to expand and diversify our product portfolio. Consequently, any shortage, price escalation, or disruption in the procurement of raw materials would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. Demand, supply and pricing in the steel industry Steel prices are influenced by multiple factors, including the availability and cost of raw materials, demand and supply dynamics in domestic and international markets, global steel production capacity and utilisation, import volumes, transportation and logistics costs, domestic and international trade policies, and social and political developments in major steel-producing and exporting nations. Prices are also highly sensitive to demand from end-user industries such as construction, infrastructure, and machinery. Any slowdown in the global or domestic economy, or in these end-use industries, may reduce demand for steel, thereby impacting prices. A decline in steel prices directly affects our revenue realisation and margins, and may also increase our working capital requirements. Consequently, adverse movements in steel prices could materially and negatively impact our business operations, financial performance, and overall financial condition. Top Ten Customers Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Particulars Amount (₹ in % of Amount (₹ in % of Amount (₹ in % of millions) Revenue millions) Revenue millions) Revenue Top Ten Customer 2601.92 31.76% 2373.81 37.70% 2207.81 39.87% 351Details of Trade Receivable Particulars March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 March 31,2023 Current Trade receivables considered good - Secured - - - Trade receivables considered good - Unsecured 711.79 214.48 137.72 Trade receivable which have significant increase - - - in credit risk - Unsecured Trade receivable Credit Impaired - Unsecured - - - Total 711.79 214.48 137.72 The increase in trade receivables during Fiscal 2025 is primarily attributable to higher revenues. A significant portion of the receivables is aged less than six months, indicating timely realizability Volatility in the prices of raw materials Our cost of raw materials consumed was ₹4,373.43 million, ₹5,028.08 million, and ₹4,389.46 million, representing 53.38%, 79.85%, and 79.28% of our revenue from operations for the financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, respectively. Any significant fluctuation in raw material prices directly impacts our production costs, margins, and profitability. An increase in input costs could compress our margins and reduce competitiveness, while a decrease could create opportunities for cost savings; however, such volatility makes financial performance unpredictable. In addition, energy is a critical input in our manufacturing process. Our power costs were ₹446.50 million, ₹297.62 million, and ₹213.90 million for the financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, respectively. Volatility in energy prices can substantially affect our operating costs. Sustained increases in power or fuel costs could materially affect our cost structure and profitability. Although we monitor market conditions, adopt strategic sourcing practices, and explore opportunities for energy efficiency, we may not be able to fully mitigate the risks of price volatility. Accordingly, significant increases in the cost of raw materials or energy, or an inability to pass such increases to customers, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects. Unexpected loss, shutdown or slowdown of operations at any of our manufacturing facilities Our manufacturing operations are exposed to risks including equipment breakdowns or failures, interruptions in power supply, obsolescence or disrepair of facilities, labour disputes, natural disasters, industrial accidents, social or political disturbances, and outbreaks of infectious diseases. Although we undertake preventive and maintenance measures to minimise such risks, there can be no assurance that our operations will not be adversely affected in the future. Any unscheduled or prolonged disruption—such as power outages, fire, mechanical failure of critical equipment, labour strikes or lockouts, natural disasters, or other unforeseen events—could lead to production delays, reduced output or efficiency, and interruptions in delivery schedules. This may adversely affect our sales, revenues, and profitability during the affected periods, and in extreme cases, could result in a partial or complete shutdown of one or more of our manufacturing facilities. While we have not experienced such disruptions in the past, the occurrence of any such events in the future could materially and adversely impact our business, financial position, results of operations, and prospects. Seasonality of business Demand for our products is seasonal as climatic conditions, particularly the monsoon, affect the level of activity in the construction industry. As a result, we usually experience relatively weaker sales volume during the monsoon, and somewhat stronger sales in other seasons. We expect our results of operations will continue to be affected by seasonality in the future. Our results of operations for any quarter in a given year may not, therefore, be comparable with other quarters in that year. Competition Manufacturing of TMT Bars is capital-intensive process and marked by significant competition. Competitive advantages are typically driven by factors such as pricing, the efficiency and scale of distribution networks, strong relationships with customers—particularly in the construction sector—consistent product quality, and compliance with applicable 352regulatory and environmental standards. The Company faces pricing pressure from competitors, including subsidiaries of large integrated steel producers and other domestic TMT Bar manufacturers that benefit from cost efficiencies and may offer products at lower prices. To maintain competitiveness, the Company focuses on optimizing operational costs and enhancing overall efficiency. Additionally, the Company believes that its established brand presence contributes positively to its competitive positioning in the market. For further details on our competition and the TMT Bar industry, please see “Industry Overview” on page 164. PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION The Restated Consolidated Financial Information of the Group comprise the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as at March 31 2025, the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), Restated Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the Restated Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the years ended March 31, 2025, the summary of material accounting policies and explanatory notes (collectively, the ‘Restated Consolidated Financial Statement’). MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY BASIS OF PREPARATION The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to the periods presented in the Restated Consolidated Financial Statement. These Restated Consolidated Financial Statement have been prepared on a going concern basis. BASIS OR MEASUREMENT The Restated Consolidated Financial Statement has been prepared on a historical cost convention, except for the following: (i) Employee's defined benefit plan at fair value of plan assets less present value of defined benefit obligation determined as per actuarial valuation; and (ii) Certain financial assets and liabilities that are qualified to be measured at fair value. CURRENT & NON-CURRENT CLASSIFICATION The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when it is: - Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle, - Held primarily for the purpose of trading, - Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting year, or - Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting year. All other assets are classified as non-current A liability is classified as current when it is: - Expected to be settled in normal operating cycle, - Held primarily for the purpose of trading, - Due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting year, or - There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting year. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and non-current liabilities. The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Group has identified twelve months as its operating cycle. 353FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATIONAL CURRENCY The Restated Consolidated Financial Statement has been presented in Indian Rupees (Rs. or INR), which is also the company's functional currency. All amounts have been rounded-off to the nearest million and decimals thereof, unless otherwise mentioned. USE OF ESTIMATES, ASSUMPTIONS & JUDGEMENTS The preparation of Restated Consolidated Financial Statement in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of Restated Consolidated Financial Statement and the reported amount of income and expenses for the year reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. They are based on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the year in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected. Assumption and estimation uncertainties: Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment in the amounts recognised in the Restated Consolidated Financial Statement is included in the following notes: (i) Impairment test of non-financial assets and financials assets (ii) Measurement of defined benefit obligations: key actuarial assumptions (iii) Recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which tax losses carried forward can be used (iv) Recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies: key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT Certain accounting policies and disclosures of the company require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows: - Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. - Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). - Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as possible. If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The Consolidated Financial Statements comprise the financial statements of the Parent Company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures, joint operations and associate (collectively referred as “the Group”). Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control as above. 354The financial statements of subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of their acquisition, being the date on which the group obtains control and continue to be consolidated until the date that control ceases. Assets, liabilities, income, expenses, cash flow and equity of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the reporting period are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. When the Company loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and (ii) the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary. All amounts previously recognized in Other Comprehensive Income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable Ind AS). Profit or Loss and each component of Other Comprehensive Income are attributed to the owners of the Parent Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. When necessary, adjustments are made to the Consolidated Financial Statements w.r.t. subsidiaries, associate, joint operations and joint ventures to bring their accounting policies in line with the Group’s accounting policies, if material. Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entities but is not control or joint control over those policies. Investments in associate and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognised at cost and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the investor’s share of profit or loss of investee after the acquisition date, less distributions received and less any impairment in value of the investment. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Recognition and measurement Property, Plant and equipment are measured at cost (which includes capitalised borrowing costs) less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises: a) its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates. b) any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management. c) the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment and depreciated accordingly. Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group. Capital work in progress and Capital advances Assets under construction includes the cost of property, plant and equipment that are not ready to use at the balance sheet date. Advances paid to acquire property, plant and equipment before the balance sheet date are disclosed under other non-current assets. Assets under construction are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use. Depreciation, Estimated useful life and Estimated residual value Depreciation is calculated using the Written Down Value method, pro rata to the period of use, taking into account useful lives and residual value of the assets, except in case of Rolling Mill which are depreciated on Straight Line Method. The useful life of assets and the estimated residual value taken from those prescribed under Part C of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in case of leasehold improvements which are depreciated over primary lease period, which 355in management’s opinion is reflective of economic useful lives of these assets. Useful life and residual values are reviewed by management at every balance sheet date and adjusted, if appropriate. Tangible Asset Useful Life Plant and Machinery 15 years Building 30/60 years Vehicle 8/10 years Furniture and fixtures 10 years Office equipments 5 years Computers 3 years Depreciation is computed with reference to cost. Depreciation on additions during the year is provided on pro rata basis with reference to month of addition/installation. Derecognition An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised. Transition to Ind AS On transition to Ind AS, the Group has elected to continue with the carrying value of all the items of property, plant and equipment recognized and measured as per the previous GAAP, and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of such property, plant and equipment. The Company has followed the same accounting policy choices (both mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind AS 101) as initially adopted while preparing the Restated Consolidated Financial Statement for the years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. INTANGIBLE ASSETS Recognition and measurement Intangible assets are initially recorded at cost and subsequent to recognition, intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Subsequent expenditure Intangible assets are amortised over their estimated useful life on Straight Line Method as follows. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with finite useful life is reviewed at the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates, such changes is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. Amortisation Intangible assets are amortised over their estimated useful life on Straight Line Method as follows. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with finite useful life is reviewed at the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates, such changes is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. Derecognition An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised. The Group has no intangible assets for the reporting year. CAPITAL WORK IN PROGRESS Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost which includes expenses incurred during construction period, interest on amount borrowed for acquisition of qualifying assets and other expenses incurred in connection with project implementation in so far as such expenses relate to the period prior to the commencement of commercial production. Advances given 356towards acquisition or construction of PPE outstanding at each reporting date are disclosed as Capital Advances under “Other Non-Current Assets”. IMPAIRMENT (i) Non-financial assets Assessment for impairment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that a non- financial asset may be impaired. For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable company of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or company’s assets is considered as a cash generating unit (CGU). If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made. Asset/cash generating unit whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount by recognising the impairment loss as an expense in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset’s or cash generating unit’s value in use and its fair value less cost of disposal. Value in use is estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life discounted to their present value using a post-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are considered. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. An impairment loss is reversed in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. (ii) Financial assets The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. The Group recognises loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model as per Ind AS 109 for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate. Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible defaults events over the expected life of a financial asset. 12 month ECL are a portion of the lifetime ECL which result from default events that are possible within 12 months from the reporting date. The company considers a financial asset to be in default when: - the counter party is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the company in full, without recourse by the company to actions such as realising security (if any is held); or - the financial asset is 180 days or more past due. ECL are measured in a manner that they reflect unbiased and probability weighted amounts determined by a range of outcomes, taking into account the time value of money and other reasonable information available as a result of past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when the company has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. The company expects no significant recovery from the amount written off during the year. 357FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS FINANCIAL ASSETS Initial recognition and measurement All financial assets are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets, which are not at fair value through profit or loss, are adjusted to the fair value on initial recognition. Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as financial assets measured at fair value or as financial assets measured at amortised cost. Subsequent Measurement Financial Assets measured at Amortised Cost (AC) A Financial Asset is measured at Amortised Cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the Financial Asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI) A Financial Asset is measured at FVTOCI if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling Financial Assets and the contractual terms of the Financial Asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that represents solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL) A Financial Asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets are reclassified subsequent to their recognition, if the Group changes its business model for managing those financial assets. Changes in business model are made and applied prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of immediately next reporting period following the changes in business model in accordance with principles laid down under Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments. Derecognition of financial assets The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. FINANCIAL LIABILITIES Classification The Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following measurement categories: - those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit and loss-[FVTPL]; and - those measured at amortised cost. [AC] Initial recognition and measurement Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or at amortised cost. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, lease liabilities, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and liability component of convertible instruments. 358Subsequent measurement The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below: Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss [FVTPL] Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss [FVTPL] include financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includes derivative financial instruments entered into by the Group that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by Ind AS 109. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the profit or loss. Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated at the initial date of recognition, only if the criteria in Ind-AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair value gains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/loss are not subsequently transferred to RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability are recognised in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS. Financial liabilities at amortised cost (Loans and borrowings) After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS. This category generally applies to borrowings. Derecognition A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified such exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS. Offsetting of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Group or the counterparty. Derivative financial instruments The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts, interest rate swaps and forward commodity contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks, interest rate risks and commodity price risks respectively. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Financial guarantee contracts Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Group are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined and the amount recognised less cumulative amortisation. 359Compound Financial Instruments Compound Financial instruments are separated into liability and equity components based on the terms of the contract. On issuance of the compound financial instruments, the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non- convertible instrument. This amount is classified as a financial liability measured at FVTPL (net of transaction costs) until it is extinguished on conversion or redemption. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in equity since conversion option meets Ind AS 32 criteria for fixed to fixed classification. Transaction costs are deducted from equity, net of associated income tax. The carrying amount of the conversion option is remeasured at each reporting date. Transaction Costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the compound financial instruments based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are initially recognised. LOANS AND BORROWINGS Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of borrowings using the effective interest method. Processing/Upfront fee are treated as prepaid expenses and same is amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS. This category generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings. Borrowings are derecognised from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid including any non cash assets transferred or liability assumed, is RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS as other gains or (losses). Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer the settlement of liabilities for at least twelve months after the reporting year. Where there is a breach of a material provision of a long term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the same is classified as current unless the lender agreed, after the reporting year and before the approval of Restated Consolidated Financial Statement for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach. TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES Trade and other payables represent current liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENT Cash and cash equivalent includes cash on hand, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Restated Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby net profit before taxes for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. 360INVENTORIES Inventories comprises of raw material, work in progress and finished goods. Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of inventories comprises of all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. (i) Raw Materials are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. (iii) Cost of inventories of finished goods and work-in-process includes material cost, proportionate cost of conversion and other costs. (iv) Cost of By Product and Scrap are valued at net realizable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The net realizable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished products. Raw materials and other supplies held for use in production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realizable value. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per shares is calculated by dividing Profit/(Loss) attributable to equity holders (adjusted for amounts directly charged to Reserves) before/after Exceptional Items (net of tax) by Weighted average number of Equity shares, (excluding treasury shares). Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share is computed using the net profit or loss for the year attributable to the shareholders’ and weighted average number of equity and potential equity shares outstanding during the year including share options, convertible preference shares and debentures, except where the result would be anti-dilutive. Potential equity shares that are converted during the year are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, from the beginning of the year or date of issuance of such potential equity shares, to the date of conversion. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSLATIONS Foreign currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated into relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognized in RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non- monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss and are generally recognised in RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS, except exchange differences arising from the translation of the following items which are recognised in OCI: • equity investments at fair value through OCI (FVOCI) • a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation to the extent that the hedge is effective; and • qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue is recognised to depict the transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers upon the satisfaction of performance obligation under the contract in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to 361be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Consideration includes goods or services contributed by the customer, as non-cash consideration, over which the company has control. Where performance obligation is satisfied over time, company recognizes revenue over the contract year. Where performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time, company recognizes revenue when customer obtains control of promised goods and services in the contract. Revenue is recognised net of any taxes collected from customers, which are remitted to governmental authorities. Sale of goods Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control or substantial risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer under the terms of the contract Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration which the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring distinct services to a customer as specified in the contract, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example taxes and duties collected on behalf of the government). Consideration is generally due upon satisfaction of performance obligations and receivable is recognized when it becomes unconditional. Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, adjusted for discounts and claims, if any, as specified in the contract with the customer. Revenue also excludes taxes collected from customers. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognized. The Group has a Two stream of revenue i.e. Sale of products & Sale of services. The Group recognises revenue at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control’ of the goods underlying the particular performance obligation are transferred to the customer. In case of domestic sales, the Group believes that the control gets transferred to the customer on dispatch of the goods from the factory as per the terms of contract /incoterms. Further, revenue from sale of goods is recognised based on a 5-Step Methodology which is as follows: Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation Sale of service The Group assesses the services promised in a contract and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct performance obligations to determine the deliverables and the ability of the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables, and allocation of transaction price to these distinct performance obligations involves significant judgment. Variable consideration The Group estimate the amount of consideration to which the company will be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to a customer, if the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount. An amount of consideration can vary because of discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price concessions, incentives, performance bonuses, or other similar items. The promised consideration can also vary if Group entitlement to the consideration is contingent on the occurrence or non-occurrence of a future event. The Group recognises rebates and discount net of sale of products for respective year. Contract Balances Trade Receivables: A receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional. 362Contract liabilities A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made. Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract. Contract assets A contract asset is a right to receive consideration in exchange for services already transferred to the customer (which consists of unbilled revenue). By transferring services to the customer before the customer pays consideration or before the payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is unconditional. RECOGNITION OF DIVIDEND INCOME, INTEREST INCOME OR EXPENSE Interest income or expense is recognised using the effective interest method. - the gross carrying amount of the financial asset; or - the amortised cost of the financial liability. In calculating interest income and expense, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of the asset (when the asset is not credit-impaired) or to the amortised cost of the liability. However, for financial assets that have become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset. If the asset is no longer credit- impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis. Dividend income is recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss on the date on which the Group’s right to receive payment is established. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS During Employment benefits - Short term employee benefits Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. Post Employment benefits - Defined contribution plans A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which a Group pays fixed contribution into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed as the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available. - Defined benefit plans The Group pays gratuity to the employees who have has completed five years of service with the company at the time when employee leaves the Group. The gratuity liability amount is unfunded and formed exclusively for gratuity payment to the employees The liability in respect of gratuity and other post-employment benefits is calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method and spread over the periods during which the benefit is expected to be derived from employees' services. Re-measurement of defined benefit plans in respect of post-employment are charged to Other Comprehensive Income. 363INCOME TAXES Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in the other comprehensive income or in equity. In which case, the tax is also recognised in the other comprehensive income or in equity. Current tax Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, based on tax rates and laws that are enacted or subsequently enacted at the Balance sheet date. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Group: a) has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and b) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current tax provision is computed for income calculated after considering allowances and exemptions under the provisions of the applicable Income Tax Laws. Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are off set, and presented as net. Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Restated Consolidated Financial Statement and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting year. The carrying amount of Deferred tax liabilities and assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting year. Deferred tax is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which they can be used. The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if: a) the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and b) The Deferred Tax Assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable Group. Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss as current tax. The company recognizes MAT credit available as an asset only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax during the specified period i.e. the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the year in which the company recognizes MAT credit as an asset in accordance with the GN on accounting for Credit Available in respect of Minimum Alternate Tax under the Income Tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by way of credit to the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and shown as "MAT Credit Entitlement." The company reviews the "MAT credit entitlement" asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent the company does not have convincing evidence that it will pay normal tax during the specified period. BORROWING COSTS Borrowing costs include: (i) interest expense calculated using the effective interest rate method; (ii) finance charges in respect of leases; and 364(iii) exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. All other borrowing costs are recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they are incurred. LEASES The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Group has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Group has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Group also applied the available practical expedients wherein it: • Used a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics • Relied on its assessment of whether leases are onerous immediately before the date of initial application • Excluded the initial direct costs from the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application • Used hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contained options to extend or terminate the lease Right-of-use assets The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets. Lease liability At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the company exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date when the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. 365Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Group has applied the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option) and low-value assets recognition exemption. PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES & ASSETS Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using equivalent period government securities interest rate. Unwinding of the discount is recognised in the RESTATED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF PROFIT AND LOSS as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Information on contingent liability is disclosed in the Notes to the Restated Consolidated Financial Statement. Contingent assets are not recognised. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, but it is recognised as an asset.

The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency). Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables). 376Trade Receivable Maximum exposure to the credit risk is on account of outstanding balances in the trade receivables account, but as per experience the ageing of debtors is always under six months and there are no bad debts encountered in past. The company is engaged in supply of TMT Bars, where the company is generally receiving its sales proceeds from customers within 6 months. However, the company has implemented an Expected Credit Loss (ECL) policy to create provisions for credit losses on overdue debtors. Interest Rate Risk The Company’s main interest rate risk arises from long- term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Company to cashflow interest rate risk. The Company’s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cashflows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates. The Company manages its cash flow interest rate risk by converting higher rate interest loan to lower rate interest loan. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company generates cash flows from operations to meet its financial obligations, maintains adequate liquid assets in the form of cash & cash equivalents and has undrawn short-term line of credits from banks to ensure necessary liquidity. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position and deploys a robust cash management system. During the year, the Company has been regular in repayment of principal and interest on borrowings on or before due dates. The Company requires funds both for short-term operational needs as well as for long-term investment programmes mainly in growth projects.

Litigation Involving Actions by Statutory/Regulatory Authorities 3. Litigation/Matters involving Tax Liabilities a. Direct Tax Liabilities Writ Petition (T) No.235 of 2021 filed by the Principal Commissioner of Income-tax, (Central), Bhopal (“the Petitioner”) against Sky Alloys and Power Private Limited and others (“the Respondents”). The search and seizure was conducted on August 31, 2017 on the various office and factory premises of Singhal Group along with the residential premises of its directors, which also include the premises of Sky Alloys and Power Private Limited (“the Company”). During the post search proceedings, a total surrender of Rs.75,04,29,764.69/- was made through a letter by Ravi Singhal, one of the directors & key people of the group covering various assesses of the group. This letter was endorsed by the remark that the declaration may be considered to be made under Section 132(4) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. The total undisclosed amount offered in the hands of the Company was Rs.71,45,95,834.98/-. One of the major issues covered under search was the investigation into the receipt of share capital and premium in the books of accounts of the Company. The search revealed that the receipt in the form of share capital was mostly through Kolkata based shell companies. It was established by way of detailed enquiries and recording of statements of Mr. Ravi Singhal, entry operators and few other supporting persons, that the groups’ own unaccounted income has been routed through the shell companies to find its place in the books of the Company in the form of share capital and share premium. During assessment proceedings, the Company filed application before the Income-tax Settlement Commission, Kolkata (“the Settlement Commission”) on June 6, 2019 covering Assessment Years 2012-13 to 2018-19. The Company offered a sum of Rs.96,25,00,000/- as additional income before the Settlement Commission. The application was allowed to be proceeded with vide Order under Section 245D (1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 dated June 25, 2019. Thereafter the Settlement Commission called for a report under Section 245D (2B) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. Consequently, the Settlement Commission passed an Order under Section 245D (2C) on August 8, 2019 declaring the application as “not invalid”. The Settlement Commission decided the issue by passing an Order in this case under Section 245D (4) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. In this Order the income of the Company was determined to be Rs.1,20,52,00,000. The Income- tax Department had argued that the nature of income arising due to introduction of bogus share money was of the nature of unexplained cash credit, as described in Section 68 of the Income-tax Act, 1961 and was therefore, liable to be taxed at special rate of 60% as per Section 115BBE of the Income-tax Act, 1961, which was rejected by the Settlement Commission. Aggrieved by the said Order of the Settlement Commission making additions to income offered by Ravi Singhal and the Company, the Petitioner has filed this Writ Petition inter alia for issue an appropriate writ/order/direction and quash the Order under Section 245D (4) dated January 21, 2021 passed by the Settlement Commission. The Company has paid the 380amounts towards tax liabilities as determined payable by it under the Order dated January 21, 2021 passed by the Settlement Commission. The matter is pending. b.

Phased implementation of Unified Payments Interface SEBI has issued the UPI Circulars in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of inter alia equity shares and convertibles by introducing an alternate payment mechanism using UPI. Pursuant to the UPI Circulars, the UPI Mechanism has been introduced in a phased manner as a payment mechanism (in addition to mechanism of blocking funds in the account maintained with SCSBs under ASBA) for applications by UPI Bidders through Designated Intermediaries with the objective to reduce the time duration from public issue closure to listing from six Working Days to up to three Working Days. Considering the time required for making necessary changes to the systems and to ensure complete and smooth transition to the UPI payment mechanism, the UPI Circulars and the Previous UPI Circulars have introduced the UPI Mechanism in three phases in the following manner: Phase I: This phase was applicable from January 1, 2019 until March 31, 2019 or floating of five main board public issues, whichever was later. Subsequently, the timeline for implementation of Phase I was extended until June 30, 2019. Under this phase, an RII had the option to submit the ASBA Form with any of the Designated Intermediary and use his/her UPI ID for the purpose of blocking of funds. The time duration from public issue closure to listing continued to be six Working Days. Phase II: This phase was applicable from July 1, 2019 and was to initially continue for a period of three months or floating of five main board public issues, whichever is later. SEBI pursuant to its circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DCR2/CIR/P/2019/133 dated November 8, 2019, had decided to extend the timeline for implementation of UPI Phase II until March 31, 2020. Subsequently, SEBI pursuant to its circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2020/50 dated March 30, 2020 extended the timeline for implementation of UPI Phase II till further notice. Under this phase, submission of the ASBA Form by RIIs through Designated Intermediaries (other than SCSBs) to SCSBs for blocking of funds was discontinued and replaced by the UPI Mechanism. However, the time duration from public issue closure to listing continued to be six Working Days during this phase. Phase III: This phase became applicable on a voluntary basis for all issues opening on or after September 1, 2023 and on a mandatory basis for all issues opening on or after December 1, 2023, vide SEBI circular bearing number SEBI/HO/CFD/TPD1/CIR/P/2023/140 dated August 9, 2023 (“T+3 Notification”). In this phase, the time duration 428from public issue closure to listing has been reduced to three Working Days. The SEBI ICDR Master Circular, has consolidated and rescinded the aforementioned circulars, including the T+3 Notification, to the extent they relate to the SEBI ICDR Regulations. The Offer shall be undertaken pursuant to the processes and procedures as notified in the SEBI ICDR Master Circular as applicable, subject to any circulars, clarification or notification issued by the SEBI from time to time, including any circular, clarification or notification which may be issued by the SEBI. The processing fees for applications made by UPI Bidders using the UPI Mechanism may be released to the SCSBs only after such banks provide a written confirmation, in compliance with the SEBI RTA Master Circular and the SEBI ICDR Master Circular in a format as prescribed by SEBI, from time to time, and such payment of processing fees to the SCSBs shall be made in compliance with circulars prescribed by SEBI and applicable law. All SCSBs offering the facility of making application in public issues shall also provide facility to make application using UPI. NPCI through its circular (NPCI/UPI/OC No. 127/ 2021-22) dated December 9, 2021, read with SEBI ICDR Master Circular inter alia, has enhanced the per transaction limit from ₹ 0.20 million to ₹ 0.50 million for applications using UPI in initial public offerings. Pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Master Circular, SEBI has set out specific requirements for redressal of investor grievances for applications that have been made through the UPI Mechanism. The requirements of the SEBI ICDR Master Circular include, appointment of a nodal officer by the SCSB and submission of their details to SEBI, the requirement for SCSBs to send short message service (“SMS”) alerts for the blocking and unblocking of UPI mandates, the requirement for the Registrar to submit details of cancelled, withdrawn or deleted applications, and the requirement for the bank accounts of unsuccessful Bidders to be unblocked no later than one Working Day from the date on which the Basis of Allotment is finalised. Failure to unblock the accounts within the timeline would result in the SCSBs being penalised under the relevant securities law. Further, in terms of the SEBI ICDR Master Circular, the payment of processing fees to the SCSBs shall be undertaken pursuant to an application made by the SCSBs to the BRLMs, and such application shall be made only after (i) unblocking of application amounts for each application received by the SCSB has been fully completed, and (ii) applicable compensation relating to investor complaints has been paid by the SCSB.

While the Industrial Policy, 1991 prescribes the limits and the conditions subject to which foreign investment can be made in different sectors of the Indian economy, FEMA regulates the precise manner in which such investment may be made. The responsibility of granting approval for foreign investment under the Consolidated FDI Policy (defined herein below) and FEMA has been entrusted to the concerned ministries/ departments of the Government of India. Under the Industrial Policy, unless specifically restricted, foreign investment is freely permitted in all sectors of the Indian economy up to any extent and without any prior approvals, but the foreign investor is required to follow certain prescribed procedures for making such investment. The Government of India has from time to time made policy pronouncements on FDI through press notes and press releases. The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Ministry of Commerce and Industry (formerly Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion), Government of India (“DPIIT”) issued the Consolidated FDI Policy Circular dated October 15, 2020, with effect from October 15, 2020 (the “Consolidated FDI Policy”), which consolidates and supersedes all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DPIIT that were in force and effect prior to October 15, 2020. The Consolidated FDI Policy will be valid until the DPIIT issues an updated circular. As on date, under the Consolidated FDI Policy, up to 100% foreign investment under the automatic route is currently permitted for our Company. The transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a non-resident does not require the prior approval of the RBI, provided that: (i) the activities of the investee company are under the automatic route under the foreign direct investment policy and transfer does not attract the provisions of the SEBI Takeover Regulations; (ii) the non-resident shareholding is within the sectoral limits under the Consolidated FDI policy; and (iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the SEBI/RBI. On October 17, 2019, Ministry of Finance, Department of Economic Affairs, had notified the FEMA Rules, which had replaced the Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer and Issue of Security by a Person Resident Outside India) Regulations 2017. Foreign investment in this Offer shall be on the basis of the FEMA Rules. Further, in accordance with Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020 issued by the DPIIT and the Foreign Exchange Management (Non- debt Instruments) Amendment Rules, 2020 which came into effect from April 22, 2020, any investment, subscription, purchase or sale of equity instruments by entities of a country which shares land border with India or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country (“Restricted Investors”), will require prior approval of the Government, as prescribed in the Consolidated FDI Policy and the FEMA Rules. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign direct investment in an entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within the aforesaid restriction/ purview, such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require approval of the Government. Pursuant to the Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) (Fourth Amendment) Rules, 2020, issued on December 8, 2020, a multilateral bank or fund, of which India is a member, shall not be treated as an entity of a particular country nor shall any country be treated as the beneficial owner of the investments of such bank or fund in India. These investment restrictions shall also apply to subscribers of offshore derivative instruments. Each Bidder should seek independent legal advice about its ability to participate in the Offer. In the event such prior approval of the Government of India is required, and such approval has been obtained, the Bidder shall intimate our Company and the Registrar to the Offer in writing about such approval along with a copy thereof within the Bid/ Offer Period. Further, the existing individual and aggregate investment limits for an FPI in our Company are not exceeding 10% of the total paid-up Equity Share capital of our Company for each FPI and the total holdings of all FPIs in the Company shall not exceed 24% of the total paid-up Equity Share capital of our Company. The RBI, in exercise of its power under the FEMA, has also notified Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) Rules, 2019 (“Rules”) and Foreign Exchange Management (Mode of Payment and Reporting of Non-Debt Instruments) Regulations, 2019 to prohibit, restrict or regulate, transfer by or issue security to a person resident outside India.
