The degree to which the financial information included in this Prospectus will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Indian accounting policies and practices, the Companies Act, 2013 and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting policies and practices on the financial disclosures presented in this Prospectus should accordingly be limited. Further, any figures sourced from third-party industry sources may be rounded off to other than two decimal points to conform to their respective sources.

Furthermore, these Non-GAAP Measures, are not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under Indian GAAP, IFRS or US GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net profit/loss, revenue from operations or any other performance measures derived in accordance with Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operations or as a measure of our liquidity. Further, these non-GAAP Measures and other statistical and other information relating to operations and financial performance 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, Indian GAAP, IFRS or US GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP Measures and other statistical and other information relating to operations and financial performance, are not annualized terms and 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 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. Further, they may have limited utility as a comparative measure. Although such non-GAAP financial 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.

Any failure to accurately estimate costs or manage our supplier relationships, may increase our construction costs and working capital requirements. • Our operations are concentrated predominantly in the state of Uttar Pradesh in the last three Fiscals,, and any change in the economic conditions could adversely impact our business and financial performance. • We have sustained negative cash flows from operating activities in the past and may experience earnings decline or operating losses or negative cash flows from operating activities in the future. Any negative cash flows in the future would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. • Any failure to maintain the quality and performance guarantees under our EPC contracts or delays in completing the construction of solar power projects, may increase our construction costs and working capital requirements. • Any restrictions in supply or failure of supply or defects in quality could cause delays in project construction or implementation and impair our ability to provide our services to customers at a price that is profitable to us. • We operate in a competitive industry and as such we may not be successful in bidding for and winning bids for solar power projects to grow our business. • Our Registered Office and Corporate Office are located on leased premises. We cannot assure you that the lease agreements will be renewed upon termination or that we will be able to lease other premises on the same or similar commercial terms. • We are in the process of setting up manufacturing facilities for manufacturing of solar modules, BESS and solar cells. The funding for these manufacturing facilities is based on certain assumptions and estimates and is subject to receipt of various approvals from regulatory authorities.

For Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023, we derived 79.19%, 91.16%, and 87.98% of our revenue, respectively, from one of our key customers, SJVN Green Energy Limited. The loss of such key customer may materially and adversely affect our business, future prospects, and financial performance. Our customers comprise public sector undertakings (“PSUs”) and commercial and industrial clients (“C&I Clients”) such as SJVN Green Energy Limited, Haldiram Snacks Private Limited, Ethnic Food Manufacturing Private Limited and Samiksha Solarworld Private Limited. Set forth below are details of the revenue from operations attributable to our top customer and our top 10 customers (determined on the basis of their contribution to our revenue from contracts with customers), for the periods indicated: Revenue from customers Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of total revenue total revenue total revenue from from from operations operations operations (₹ in million) (%) (₹ in million) (%) (₹ in million) (%) Top customer* 4,313.92 79.19 4567.51 91.16 2,045.26 87.98 Top 5 customers 5,336.53 97.96 5,001.54 99.83 2,322.94 99.93 Top 10 customers 5,446.18 99.97 5,007.43 99.95 2,324.61 100.00 Total revenue from 5,447.65 100.00 5,010.16 100.00 2,324.61 100.00 operations * Represents SJVN Green Energy Limited which is our repeated customer for each of the Fiscals. Since we are dependent on certain key customers for a significant portion of our revenue from our operations in a particular reporting period, the loss of any of such customers or a reduction in demand from such customers, for any reason, including due to loss of contracts, delay in fulfilling existing orders, failure to negotiate acceptable terms in negotiations, disputes or a loss of market share or a downturn in such customers’ business, if not suitably replaced with another customer, could adversely affect our business, future prospects financial condition and results of operations in that period.

Our future growth trajectory is subject to certain challenges due to our current reliance on a key customer and a limited group of customers, including our top 10 customers. We recognize the importance of diversifying our customer base to mitigate this risk and are actively exploring various strategies to achieve this. While our existing customer base includes both PSUs and C&I Clients, reflecting a degree of diversification, we plan to expand this further, in due course. To ensure sustainable growth, we are developing a comprehensive diversification plan that will outline specific steps to broaden our customer base. For instance, from April 1, 2024 till the date of this Prospectus, we have received orders from four new customers that contributed 88.54% of our Order Book as on July 31, 2025. We are committed to investing in sales and marketing initiatives to identify and acquire new customers. We are also pursuing strategic partnerships to access new customer networks and enhance our market reach. While we believe that proactively addressing our customer concentration risk through a well-defined diversification strategy is essential for our long- term success, there can be no assurance that we will succeed in achieving the same, and any failure may materially and adversely affect our business, future prospects, and financial performance. Furthermore, the volume of our business with these customers may vary from period to period. Our business, operations, revenues and profitability may be adversely affected if these customers demand price reductions, set-off any payment obligations or if there is an adverse change in any of our customers’ procurement strategies, including procurement from our competitors. Our growth depends, among other factors, on the growth of our key customers and we are also exposed to fluctuations in the performance of the solar and hybrid energy sector. A decline in our customers’ business performance may also lead to a corresponding decrease in demand for our services. Insufficient demand for renewable energy may also prevent growth in demand for our products and services, and consequently, materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation. For further details about our customer, please see “Our Business-Our customers” on page 202. 2. Our installation and construction activities are subject to cost overruns or delays or completion risks which may have an adverse impact on our operations. We undertake all our solar power projects through our engineering, procurement, and construction (“EPC”) projects. Submitting a competitive bid for our EPC projects auction requires extensive research, planning, due diligence and a willingness to operate with low operating margins for sustained periods of time. If we miscalculate or misjudge and incorrectly factor the costs of construction, development, land acquisition and price of the components, the economics of successful bids may be affected, and the projects may become economically unviable. For instance, we estimate prices for system components and factor these costs into our bids, and if these prices vary from what was anticipated, the profitability of our successful bids may be adversely affected. Further, our suppliers may attempt to renegotiate supply contracts, if there is an increase in raw material prices, which may also increase our capital expenditures. For instance, in one of our projects, the price of solar panels varied by approximately 12.34% on account of change in the price of raw materials and components in China. We may also be required to incur unanticipated capital expenditures for interconnection rights, regulatory approvals, preliminary engineering permits, and legal and other expenses which could adversely affect the profitability of the solar power projects and, as a result, our profitability. The EPC expenditure in connection with our projects primarily includes, but is not limited to, manpower costs, which encompass the expenses incurred for both technical and non-technical personnel engaged in the design, engineering, procurement, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of the EPC projects. It also includes procurement expenses, which cover the costs associated with the acquisition of materials, including, but not limited to, solar panels, transformers, and other necessary components to be supplied to the customer in accordance with the terms of the contract. Furthermore, the EPC expenditure includes construction expenses, which cover the costs incurred from third-party vendors and the procurement of civil materials required for the construction, development, and execution of the project. The installation and construction of our solar power projects has been and may be adversely affected by circumstances outside of our control, including inclement weather, delays in receiving possession of land parcels, adverse geological and environmental conditions, a failure to receive regulatory approvals on schedule, third party delays in providing supplies and other materials or the filing of injunctions by other parties to stop us from taking certain actions. For instance, during Fiscal 2023 we incurred a loss wherein 1,171 solar panels were damaged due to unprecedented rainfall affecting our Parasan Solar Project for SGEL Limited. While we have recovered the claim amount of ₹11.56 million for such damages, we cannot assure you that we may not face any such instance in the future. These have resulted in substantial uncertainty in the implementation and timeline of these projects, which we have not included in our portfolio capacity calculations. Increases in the prices of materials and components or shortages of materials and components may also increase procurement costs. Moreover, local political changes as well as demonstrations or protests by local communities or special interest groups could result in, or contribute to, project development time and cost overruns for us. 32Except for the delay in projects for which customers have granted extension letter, set out below are the details of the delays in our completed projects as on the date of this Prospectus: Project Particulars of delay Loss incurred (in ₹ million) Bisalpur (10 MW AC/12 MW DC) Delay in completion of project due to right 26 million of way (RoW) in transmission line Set forth below are the expenses incurred in the construction and development of our solar power projects for the periods indicated: Particulars Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2025 (in ₹ million) % of total (in ₹ million) % of total (in ₹ million) % of total expenses expenses expenses Cost of material 2,824.23 63.90% 3,813.10 86.79% 1,817.45 83.70% consumed Engineering, 534.87 12.10% 436.34 9.93% 252.56 11.63% procurement and construction project expenses Purchases of stock-in- 600.32 13.58% 3.10 0.07% 3.43 0.16% trade Total 3,959.42 89.58% 4,252.54 96.79% 2,073.44 95.49% We utilize and rely on a limited number of third-party sub-contractors to construct and install portions of our EPC projects. There have been four instances of delay in our projects in Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023, out of which we received extension letters on three instances and paid damages amounting to ₹ 26.00 million. Except for three ongoing projects wherein our Company has duly received extension letters from the customers, there are no delays in the ongoing projects of our Company, as on the date of this Prospectus. We cannot assure you that, if our third-party contractors do not satisfy their obligations or do not perform work that meet our quality standards or if there is a shortage of third-party contractors or if there are labour strikes that interfere with the ability of our contractors to complete their work on time or within budget, we would not experience significant delays and potential cost overruns. We may face difficulties converting a construction project into an operational project, which is subject to the receipt of various licenses and approvals, among other factors. We incur substantial expenses in the construction and development of our projects and if these projects cannot be operationalized, we may have to write-off such expenses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For further details about our service offerings and our operations, please see “- Our operations are subject to extensive regulations, which require us to obtain, renew and comply with the terms of various approvals, licenses and permits. Failure to obtain such licenses and permits will adversely affect our operations and may have an impact on our cash flows” and “Our Business - Our Business Operations” on pages 44 and 198, respectively. 3. We may be unable to accurately estimate costs under fixed-price EPC contracts. Any failure to accurately estimate costs or manage our supplier relationships, may increase our construction costs and working capital requirements which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flow and results of operations. We enter into fixed-price EPC contracts with most of our customers. Under these contracts, we estimate essential costs, such as the cost of construction materials and direct project costs, at the time of entering into the agreement with our customers. However, these cost estimates are preliminary, and at the time we submit bids or enter into EPC contracts, we may not have finalized agreements with subcontractors, suppliers, or other parties involved in the project. Once an EPC contract is signed, we typically cannot renegotiate or reprice it unless there are technical deviations or unless both parties mutually agree. Any inaccuracies in estimating costs could lead to our actual costs exceeding estimated ones, increasing construction expenses and working capital requirements. Additionally, if price negotiations with clients fail, we are unable to exit the contract except under force majeure conditions, and attempting to do so could result in significant penalties. In the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced changes to our projects costs owing to changes in technical specifications. However, we cannot assure that such incidents may not occur in the future and not have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. If we cannot accurately estimate costs or manage our subcontractor and supplier relationships, we may incur substantial losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flow, and results of operations. For further details about our EPC services, please see “Our Business - Our Business Operations - EPC” on page 198. 334. Our operations are concentrated predominantly in the state of Uttar Pradesh in Fiscals 2024 and 2023, and any change in the economic conditions could adversely impact our business and financial performance. As of July 31, 2025, 42 out of our 46 Completed Projects were located in states such as Uttar Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Haryana and Delhi. Further, in Fiscal 2024 and 2023, we had received 99.41%, and 99.35% of our total income from our EPC and O&M services in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Accordingly, we have geographic concentration in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Therefore, we are dependent on the general economic conditions and activities in this state. Set forth below is certain select financial information based on the Restated Consolidated Financial Information for Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024, and Fiscal 2023, the components of which are also expressed as a percentage of our total income for the Fiscals indicated: Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage Amount Percentage of total total income of total income income (₹ million) (%) (₹ million) (%) (₹ (%) million) Assam 2,903.92 53.31 - - - - Gujarat 1,491.80 27.38 - - - - Uttar Pradesh 340.53 6.25 4,980.70 99.41 2,309.42 99.35 Telangana - - 2.98 0.06 10.81 0.47 Maharashtra 643.88 11.82 26.00 0.52 0.64 0.03 Rajasthan 67.52 1.24 0.45 0.01 3.73 0.16 Delhi - - 0.02 0.00 - - Total 5,447.65 100.00 5,010.16 100.00 2,324.61 100.00 As of July 31, 2025, we have received orders from states such as Gujarat, Assam, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, and we intend to expand into other states of India. However, our concentration in these states is due to their peculiar susceptibility to solar power projects. Our presence in these states currently exposes us to adverse geological, ecological, environmental, economic and/or political circumstances in the region. If there is a sustained downturn in the economy of the region or a sustained change in financial patterns in the region, or any non-favourable environmental or geological changes, for any reason, our financial position may be adversely affected. 5. We have sustained negative cash flows from operating activities in the past and may experience earnings decline or operating losses or negative cash flows from operating activities in the future. Any negative cash flows in the future would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. The following table summarizes our cash flows for the last three Fiscals: (₹ in million) Particulars As at, or for the fiscal year ended, March 31, 2025 2024 2023 Net cash generated from / (used in) operating activities 538.99 71.75 (71.40) (A) Net cash generated from / (used in) investing activities (B) (2,734.97) 192.16 32.82 Net cash used generated from / (used in) financing 2,103.04 (103.41) 63.58 activities (C) Increase / (Decrease) in net cash and cash equivalents (92.94) 160.50 25.00 (A+B+C) Opening cash and cash equivalent 203.81 43.31 18.31 Closing cash and cash equivalents 110.87 203.81 43.31 We have sustained negative cash flow used in operating activities for Fiscals 2023 attributable to decrease in trade receivables, increase in non-current provisions, increase in other current financial liabilities and increase in other current liabilities. We have sustained negative cash flow used in investing activities as of March 31, 2025 attributable to the investment in purchase of property, plant and equipment for one of our subsidiaries, ZNSHINE Solarworld Private Limited, as well as an investment made in fixed deposits. We have sustained negative cash flow used in financing activities for Fiscals 2024 attributable to the repayment of short term borrowings and finance costs paid for Fiscal 2024 34For further details see, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Results of operations information based on the Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on page 380. There can be no assurances that cash flows will be positive in the future thereby creating an adverse impact on our ability to meet working capital expenditure, repay loans without raising finance from external resources. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flows, it may adversely affect our business and financial operations. 6. Any failure to maintain the quality and performance guarantees under our EPC contracts or delays in completing the construction of solar power projects, may increase our construction costs and working capital requirements which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flow and results of operations. Our EPC contracts include performance guarantees, such as generation guarantees, that require us to complete solar power projects within a specified timeline and ensure that the solar installations generate a minimum guaranteed number of units over a period ranging from two to five years. As of July 31, 2025, we have provided performance bank guarantees amounting to ₹ 1,425.05 million. In addition, we offer a defect liability period of one year for all installed projects, covering any defects or issues during this time. Failure to meet performance or generation guarantees could result in penalties, including the requirement to perform remedial work or the potential termination of the contract by the counterparty. While there have been no such instances in the last three Fiscals, where have failed to meet our performance or generation guarantees under our EPC contracts, we cannot assure you that we will continue to meet our performance or generation guarantees in all our EPC contracts. These failures may prevent us from achieving expected margins or lead to an overall loss in the relevant financial period. While we believe we have recourse through contractual performance guarantees from suppliers, failure to recover these losses could negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, delays in project completion due to factors like engineering changes, labour shortages, supply chain disruptions, or external approvals could result in penalties, harm our reputation, and constrain our resources for other projects. 7. Any restrictions in supply or failure of supply or defects in quality could cause delays in project construction or implementation and impair our ability to provide our services to customers at a price that is profitable to us which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The quality and timely supply of our products (and consequently, customer acceptance of such products) depends on the quality of the raw materials, components and spares such as solar panels, inverters, solar structures, transformers, electrical panels, cables, etc. to timely deliver such materials. The prices and supply of such materials and components depend on factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions, competition, production levels, transportation costs and import duties. Suitable alternative suppliers who can meet our technical and quality standards, and who can supply the necessary quantities, may be hard to find in the event of a supply failure. The failure of any of our suppliers to deliver these materials or components in the necessary quantities, to adhere to delivery schedules for supply, or to comply with specified quality standards and technical specifications, could adversely affect our EPC projects, and operations and maintenance (“O&M”) services. In October 2021, one of our suppliers has been unable to supply solar modules due to nationwide electricity restriction of and even shutdown of high energy consumption enterprises in China. As a result, our business was affected, leading to a loss of approximately INR 241.02 million on account of increased costs of procuring alternative suppliers. We cannot assure you that we will not face such issues with the failure of our suppliers which could adversely affect our EPC projects and O&M services. Set forth below are the details of our top 10 suppliers for Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023: Fiscal 2025 (In ₹ million) Sr. No. Name of Supplier Fiscal 2025# % of Cost of Material Consumed** 1 Sova Solar Limited 1,082.76 38.34 2 Purshotam Profiles Private Limited 360.94 12.78 3 Karamtara Engineering Private Limited 327.42 11.59 4 Grandlay Electricals India 151.34 5.36 5 Vijayshree Steel Industries 148.83 5.27 6 Alpex Solar Limited 120.68 4.27 7 Sns Infratech Private Limited 102.63 3.63 8 Suppliers 8* 81.41 2.88 9 Supplier 9* 62.06 2.20 10 Supplier 10* 60.25 2.13 Total Purchase from Top 10 Suppliers 2,498.32 88.45 *Names of some of our top 10 suppliers have not been included in this Prospectus due to non-receipt of consent from such suppliers to be named in this Prospectus. # Excluding purchases made for stock in trade. 35Fiscal 2024 (In ₹ million) Sr. No. Name of Supplier Purchase in Fiscal 2024# % of Cost of Material Consumed 1 Waaree Energies Limited 1,052.56 27.60% 2 RenewSys India Private Limited 571.13 14.98% 3 Alpex Solar Private Limited 426.55 11.19% 4 Zhengxin Photoelectric Technology (Suqian) Co. 318.06 8.34% Limited 5 Supplier 5* 170.46 4.47% 6 Purshotam Profiles Private Limited 140.80 3.69% 7 Sineng Electric India Private Limited 139.23 3.65% 8 Vijayshree Steel Industries 129.63 3.40% 9 Tesla Power Equipments and Projects 98.55 2.58% 10 Grandlay Electricals India 92.56 2.43% Total Purchase from Top 10 Suppliers 3,139.53 82.33% *Names of some of our top 10 suppliers have not been included in this Prospectus due to non-receipt of consent from such suppliers to be named in this Prospectus. # Excluding purchases made for stock in trade.

If we fail to properly operate and maintain our equipment and power projects, it may result in decreased performance, reduced useful life, or even shutdowns. There is no assurance that our power generation assets will continue to perform as expected due to several risks including local conditions, wear and tear, latent defects, design or operator errors, early obsolescence, force majeure events, and inconsistencies in the quality of maintenance services. For example, solar inverters are prone to breakdown and require periodic shut down for maintenance and repair. This, in turn, could give rise to contractual penalties or liabilities for us, loss of customers and damage to our reputation. In certain cases, this has led to, and can lead to, delay in supplying and commissioning or maintenance of break down and thus delay our ability to recognize revenues in relation to our ongoing projects and also may lead to payment of liquidated damages and performance guarantees. If we are unable to procure the requisite quantities of raw materials in a timely manner and within our budgeted costs, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. While there have been no such instances in the last three Fiscals, where we have failed to procure requisite quantities of raw materials in a timely manner, we cannot assure you that any failure to procure the requisite raw materials we will be able to arrange supply of the required materials from alternate suppliers in a timely manner. Further, the Government of India may change its laws from time to time. We cannot assure you that any change in the policies from the Government of India will not have an impact on our operations in terms of price. For further details, please see “- Compliance with present and changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties may adversely affect our business and financial performance” on page 65. Additionally, some of our suppliers are companies of a modest scale that may be unable to supply our increasing demand for raw materials and components as we expand our business. We may be unable to identify suppliers in new markets or qualify their products for use in our business in a timely manner and on commercially reasonable terms. We may also be subject to adverse local regulations for appointing suppliers. Some of our contracts require us to comply with “Make in India” requirements for procurement of components. Any constraints on our suppliers may result in an inability for us to meet our development plans and our obligations under our customer contracts, which may have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, reductions in our order volume may put pressure on 36suppliers and could result in increased material and component costs, materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition and results of operations. 8. We operate in a competitive industry and as such we may not be successful in bidding for and winning bids for solar power projects to grow our business, which may have a material adverse effect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Our business depends on our ability to continually win bids for solar power projects and our current business strategy focuses on increasing the EPC projects and expanding our operations into new geographies. We bid for such EPC projects and compete with other EPC solutions providers based on, among other things, pricing, technical and design and engineering expertise, financing capabilities, past experience, land bank availability and track-record. The bidding and selection process is also affected by a number of factors, including factors which may be beyond our control, such as market conditions or government incentive programs. Our market position therefore depends on our financing, development and operation capabilities, reputation, experience and track-record. As we expand our operations in terms of geographies and scale of the projects we undertake, the competition that we may face with our competitors will increase. We believe our primary competitors are traditional EPC solution providers and solar power companies that have their own in-house EPC and O&M operations. Some of the key players in EPC are Waaree Energies, Tata Power, Sterling & Wilson, Vikram Solar, BHEL, Prozeal Infra, L&T and Jakson etc. (Source: CRISIL Report). The table below sets forth the percentage of bids by us won against the total bids that we participated in and those that came up for auction in the solar EPC and BESS sectors in the periods mentioned: EPC Particulars Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2025 Quoted capacity (in MW) 910 725 525 Allotted capacity (in MW) 345 410 125 Total number of bids participated 4 7 4 Total number of bids won 2 3 2 Percentage of bids won against capacity of total bids (Bid success ratio) 37.91% 56.55% 23.81% BESS Particulars Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2025 Quoted capacity (in MW/MWh) 250/750 - - Allotted capacity (in MW/MWh) 125/250 - - Total number of bids participated 2 - - Total number of bids won 1 - - Percentage of bids won against number of total bids (Bid success ratio) 50% - - Further in the current financial year till the date of this Prospectus, the Company has participated bids to the tune of 300 MW AC for solar EPC and 200/400 MWh for BESS. Our competitors may have greater financial resources, a more effective or established local business presence with specific regional advantages or a greater willingness or ability to operate with little or no operating margins for sustained periods of time. Some of our competitors may have advantages over us in terms of greater operational, technical, management or other resources in particular markets or in general, better and longer track records, stronger lender relations, as well as know-how of regulatory and political challenges in the geographies in which we operate or into which we intend to expand our operations. Any increase in competition during the bidding process or reduction in our competitive capabilities could have a material adverse effect on our market share and on the margins, we generate from our solar power project portfolio. In addition, our competitors may choose to enter into strategic alliances or form affiliates with other competitors to our detriment. Suppliers or sub-contractors may merge with our competitors which may limit the choice of subcontractors we have available to us which may limit the flexibility of our overall service capabilities. There can be no assurance that our current or potential competitors will not offer the services we provide comparable or superior to those that we offer at the same or lower prices; adapt more quickly to industry challenges; or expand their operations at a faster pace than we do. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced profit margins and loss of market share, thereby causing a material adverse effect on our operations, prospects and financial condition. For further details about the competitive nature of the solar power sector, please see “- We operate in a competitive industry and as such we may not be successful in bidding for and winning bids for solar power projects to grow our business, which may have a material adverse effect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects” on page 37. 379. Our Registered Office and Corporate Office are located on leased premises. We cannot assure you that the lease agreements will be renewed upon termination or that we will be able to lease other premises on the same or similar commercial terms. We do not own the premises on which our Registered Office and Corporate Office are located. We have been authorized to use our Registered Office and Corporate Office by our Promoters, Pioneer Fincap Private Limited and Pioneer Facor IT Infradevelopers Private Limited, pursuant to lease agreements dated January 1, 2025 and August 1, 2025, respectively. For further details, in relation to the properties leased by us, refer to “Our Business - Properties” on page 209. We cannot assure you that we will continue to be able to continue operating out of our existing premises or renew our existing leases on acceptable terms or at all. Any such event may adversely impact our operations and cash flows and may divert management attention from our business operations. In case of any deficiency in the title of the owners from whose premises we operate, breach of the contractual terms of the lease or rent agreements, or if the owner of the premises do not renew the agreement under which we occupy the premises, or if they seek to renew such agreement on terms and conditions unfavourable to us, or if they terminate our agreement, we may suffer a disruption in our operations. 10. We have recently established a manufacturing facility for manufacturing of solar modules and we are in the process of setting up a manufacturing facility for manufacturing of BESS and of establishing a manufacturing facility for solar PV TopCon cell through one of our subsidiaries. The funding for these manufacturing facilities is based on certain assumptions and estimates and is subject to receipt of various approvals from regulatory authorities. Inadequate assumptions and estimates or failure to obtain the required approvals may have an adverse effect on our business operations. We are entering into the manufacturing sector for the first time. We have recently established a modern manufacturing facility, at Haridwar, Uttarakhand for manufacturing of TopCon solar modules with an annual capacity of 1.2 GW, through one of our subsidiaries ZNSHINE Solarworld Private Limited., pursuant to an Equity Co-operation Agreement entered into with ZNSHINE PV-Tech Co. Limited. We are also setting up a battery energy storage systems (“BESS”) production line of a capacity of 2GW in Haridwar, Uttarakhand. The setting up of the manufacturing facilities for the manufacture of solar modules and BESS manufacturing lines are funded through debt and internal accruals. We also intend to establish a manufacturing facility for solar PV TopCon cell with an annual capacity of 1.2 GW at Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh, through our subsidiary, Kartik Solarworld Private Limited, partly funded through the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds. In this regard, we have entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding with ZNSHINE PV-Tech Co. Limited dated September 10, 2024. For details, refer to “Objects of the Offer” on page 102. Since this is our new venture into manufacturing, there are inherent risks related to unforeseen challenges and our lack of first-hand experience in this sector. These risks include potential difficulties in integrating the manufacturing workstream with our existing EPC and O&M businesses, which could affect operational efficiency and resource allocation. The following table discloses the amount estimated and date of estimated completion for our new facility in Pandhurana: Facility Amount estimated (in ₹ million) Date of estimated completion Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh 5,752.99 June 2027 The successful completion and operation of the manufacturing facilities are contingent upon obtaining various approvals from regulatory authorities, including environmental clearances, land-use, and construction permits. Failure to obtain these approvals in a timely manner or any changes in regulatory requirements could cause significant delays, increase costs, or even halt the project. If we are unable to effectively manage these risks, our business operations, financial condition, and future growth prospects may be materially and adversely affected. It is further submitted that our Company has entered into the non-binding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with ZNSHINE PV-Tech Co. Limited to serve as a guiding framework, allowing both parties to negotiate and finalise the binding transaction documents, while awaiting the necessary approvals from the relevant authorities. 11. Our lack of experience in manufacturing, implementation and sales of solar modules, battery energy storage systems and solar PV TopCon cell and lack of necessary experienced personnel for manufacturing of solar PV TopCon cell may have an adverse impact on our prospects, growth, results of operations and financial condition. Our company has no prior experience in manufacturing, implementing, or selling TopCon solar modules, battery energy storage systems (“BESS”), or solar PV TopCon cells. This lack of experience is compounded by the absence of experienced personnel within our organization, in the manufacturing of solar PV TopCon cell. We are establishing manufacturing facilities for these products, a significant undertaking given our limited internal expertise. Our success hinges on rapidly acquiring and integrating the necessary manufacturing expertise, scaling manufacturing processes, 38managing specialized component supply chains, meeting customer demands, achieving sales targets, and effectively and strategically competing against established industry players. Establishing and scaling manufacturing operations for products such as TopCon solar cells requires specialized knowledge, quality control processes and experienced personnel to oversee them. Our inexperience, particularly the lack of in-house manufacturing expertise, heightens the risk of production delays, cost overruns, and quality control issues, potentially leading to product defects, warranty claims, recalls, and safety hazards. Furthermore, successfully deploying and integrating these complex systems requires specialized technical expertise, which we currently lack, potentially causing implementation difficulties, customer dissatisfaction, project delays, and cost overruns. We also face competition from larger, more established companies with greater resources and market presence, making it challenging to effectively market and sell our products given our sales team’s limited experience. Our dependence on key personnel for strategic direction and operational expertise is amplified by our current limitations, and the loss of any key individuals could significantly impact our ability to execute our business plan. These challenges significantly increase the risk that we may not achieve our business objectives, potentially materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition, and results of operations. 12. We are yet to place orders for certain equipment and civil works for establishing a manufacturing facility at Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh, proposed to be part funded through this Offer. In the event of any delay in placing the orders, or in the event the vendors are not able to provide the equipment or services in a timely manner, or at all, it may result in time and cost over-runs thereby affecting our business, prospects and results of operations adversely. We intend to utilize a portion of the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds for part financing the cost of establishing a manufacturing facility at Industrial Area Village Khapakarimwar, Tehsil Sausar, District Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh, India for the manufacturing of solar PV TopCon cell with an annual capacity of 1.2 GW (“Pandhurana Project”). As of the date of this Prospectus, we have incurred an aggregate cost of ₹ 51.80 million, with ₹10.00 million advanced at the time of issue of letter of allotment and ₹ 41.80 million advanced subsequently, out of the total estimated cost of the Pandhurana Project i.e., ₹ 5,752.99 million. As on the date of this Prospectus, we are yet to place orders for ₹ 5,497.09 million of capital expenditure to be incurred for the Pandhurana Project of the remaining estimated cost of ₹ 5,701.19 million of the Pandhurana Project yet to be deployed. As per the letter of allotment executed with Chhindwara Plus Developers Limited dated September 21, 2024 (“Allotment Letter”) our Company has been allotted a plot of land at Industrial Area Village Khapakarimwar, Tehsil Sausar, District Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh, India (“Project Land”) which will be sub-leased by our Company to KSPL at commercially acceptable terms. Our Company has entered into a memorandum of understanding with KSPL dated September 29, 2024 for the usage of the Project Land. In terms of the Allotment Letter, we are required to set up our manufacturing facility within three years from September 21, 2024. We cannot assure you that we will be able to set up the Pandhurana Project in a timely manner or at all. For the cost estimates, we have relied on Cost Assessment Report issued by the Independent Chartered Engineer for Pandhurana Project, along with quotations mentioned therein. Such quotations are valid for limited periods and may be subject to revisions and are subject to other commercial and technical factors. If there is any increase in the costs of equipment, additional costs will need to be borne by our Company from its internal accruals. For details in relation to our objects, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 102. The completion of such Pandhurana Project is dependent on the performance of external agencies, which are responsible for inter alia civil work, installation and commissioning of machinery and supply and testing of equipment. If the performance of these agencies is inadequate, it may result in incremental cost and time overruns which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. We may also be unable to identify suitable replacement external agencies in a timely manner. In addition, 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. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will be able to undertake such capital expenditure within the cost indicated by such quotations or that there will not be cost escalations. In addition, Pandhurana Project may also be subject to regulatory restrictions or approvals which we are yet to obtain, including approvals required prior to commissioning of the Pandhurana Project. Our inability to procure such approvals or machinery and equipment at acceptable prices or in a timely manner, may result in an increase in capital expenditure, the proposed schedule implementation and deployment of the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds may be extended or may vary accordingly, thereby resulting in an adverse effect on our business, prospects and results of operations. 13. Our solar modules, battery energy storage solutions and solar PV TopCon cell that are proposed to be manufactured at our proposed manufacturing facility, may not be accepted by our customers and/or may not be profitable or achieve the profitability that justifies our investment, which may have an adverse impact on our prospects, growth, results of operations and financial condition. We intend to foray into the manufacturing sector, through the setup of the manufacturing facilities for the manufacture of solar modules, BESS and solar PV TopCon cell. This is our new venture into manufacturing and there are inherent 39risks related to unforeseen challenges and our lack of first-hand experience in this sector. For further details, please see “Our Business - Strategies” on page 196. While we intend to leverage our relationships with customers of our EPC and O&M services, we cannot assure you that the solar modules, BESS and solar PV TopCon cell proposed to be manufactured by us will be accepted by our customers. Certain customers may require us to be specifically empanelled with them for the supply of such components and may undertake a detailed examination of our manufacturing facilities and samples of our products prior to empanelling us as suppliers. Our solar modules, BESS and solar PV TopCon cell may not meet the specification, requirements or standards of potential customers and we may not be able to compete with other established manufacturers. Our proposed manufacturing business will involve complex research and development and existing manufacturers of such products will be more experienced and have established relationships with customers in this area. Further, there can be no assurance that we will be able to sell sufficient quantities of solar modules, BESS and solar PV TopCon cell, at the prices required for it to be profitable or to achieve the profitability that justifies our investment. If the solar modules, BESS and solar PV TopCon cell, proposed to be manufactured by us are not profitable, we may be required to incur additional expenditure to support it. The failure of the manufacturing business to be profitable or to achieve the profitability that justifies our investment, may have an adverse impact on our prospects, growth, results of operations and financial condition. 14. Any variations in our funding requirements and the proposed deployment of Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds may affect our business and results of operations. We intend to use the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds for the purposes described in “Objects of the Offer” on page 102 of this Prospectus. Our funding requirements are based on management estimates and our proposed Pandhurana Project we have received a Cost Assessment Report from the Independent Chartered Engineer. The deployment of the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds will be at the discretion of our Board or our IPO Committee. However, the deployment of the Gross Proceeds will be monitored by a monitoring agency appointed pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Regulations. 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, inability to identify suitable location for our factory/offices at favourable terms 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 proceeds. If we are unable to deploy the Net Proceeds or the Pre-IPO Proceeds in a timely or an efficient manner, it may affect our business and results of operations. Furthermore, the objects of the Offer have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. Whilst a monitoring agency will be appointed, for monitoring utilisation of the Gross Proceeds, the proposed utilisation of the proceeds is based on current conditions, our business plans and internal management estimates, appraisal report and is subject to changes in external circumstances or costs, or in other financial condition, business or strategy. Based on the competitive nature of our industry, we may have to revise our business plan and/or management estimates from time to time and consequently our funding requirements may also change. Our internal management estimates may exceed fair market value or the value that would have been determined by third party appraisals, which may require us to reschedule or reallocate our capital expenditure and may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In accordance with Section 13(8) and Section 27 of the Companies Act, 2013 and applicable rules, our Company shall not vary the objects of the Offer without our Company being authorised to do so by the Shareholders by way of a special resolution. We may not be able to obtain the shareholders’ approval in a timely manner, or at all, in the event we need to make such changes. Any delay or inability in obtaining such shareholders’ approval may adversely affect our business or operations. Pursuant to the Companies Act, the promoters and controlling shareholders of our Company, as at the time of such proposed variation, will be required to provide an exit opportunity to the Shareholders who do not agree to such proposal to vary the objects, subject to the provisions of the Companies Act and in accordance with such terms and conditions, including in respect of pricing of the Equity Shares, in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. The requirement to provide an exit opportunity to such dissenting shareholders may deter our promoters and controlling shareholders, as at the time of the proposed variation, from agreeing to any changes made to the proposed objects of the Offer, even if such change is in our interest. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that such promoters and controlling shareholders will have adequate resources to provide an exit opportunity at the price prescribed by SEBI. For further details on exit opportunity to dissenting shareholders, see “Objects of the Offer—Variation in Objects of the Offer and Period of Utilisation” on page 114. In light of these factors, we may not be able to undertake variation of object of the Offer to use any unutilized proceeds of the Offer, if any, or vary the terms of any contract referred to in this Prospectus, even if such variation is in our interest. This may restrict our ability to respond to any change in our business or financial condition by re-deploying the un-utilized portion of the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds, if any, or varying the terms of any contract, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows. 4015. There have been certain instances of delays in payment of statutory dues by our Company in the past. Any delay in payment of statutory dues by our Company in future, may result in the imposition of penalties and in turn may have an adverse effect on our Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. Our Company is required to pay certain statutory dues including provident fund contributions and employee state insurance contributions as indicated in the tables below. The table below sets out details of the delays in statutory dues payable by our Company for July 31, 2025, Fiscal 2025, 2024, and 2023: (₹ million, unless otherwise indicated) Amount Amount Amount Amount involved in involved in involved in involved in Name of Act Nature of Default default as on default as on default as on default as on July 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 March 31, March 31, 2025 2023 - ESIC Act Late payment of ESIC - 0.00 - EPFO Act Late payment of EPF - - 0.04 - GST Act Interest on GST - 0.03 0.79 0.05 GST Act Penalty - Negligible 0.01 - Income Tax Act Interest on TDS - 0.08 0.01 0.03 Income Tax Act Interest on Income Tax - 4.78 - - Custom Act Penalty - 0.02 - - Custom Act Interest on Custom Duty 1.41 Negligible - - In order to ensure that there are no similar delays in the future, our Company keeps a track of the payment dates to ensure on-time filing. If we are unable to pay our statutory dues on time, we could we subject to penalties which could impact our financial condition and results of operations. 16. As we undertake process of our EPC operations in-house, we are exposed to certain risks such as changes in economic conditions, increasing cost of labour, delays and other unforeseen expenses, which may have an adverse impact on our business operations. We undertake process of our EPC operations in-house, which allows us greater control, however, it also exposes us to certain risks that would typically be borne by third parties if we outsourced these services. For example, entering into fixed-price contracts with third-party EPC providers would have insulated us from adverse price fluctuations for the equipment and materials we use for constructing solar power projects. As a result, we are exposed to construction cost risks that could be caused by various factors, including: • changes in economic conditions. • increases in the price and availability of labour, equipment and materials. • inaccuracies of drawings and technical information. • delays in the delivery of equipment and materials to project sites. • unanticipated increases in equipment costs. • delays caused by local and seasonal weather conditions; and • any other unforeseen design and engineering issues, or physical, site and geological conditions, that may result in delays. Additionally, we will be primarily responsible for all equipment defects and construction defects, potentially adding to the cost of construction of our solar power projects. Although we generally obtain warranties from our equipment suppliers, we are responsible for initiating claims against equipment suppliers during the warranty period which will also delay the construction of the project and divert personnel attention on the construction of the project. We cannot assure you that we will be successful with such claims against our suppliers or that these claims will be resolved in a timely manner, or at all. For further details about our EPC contracts, please see “Our Business – Our Business Agreements” on page 200. 4117. We are exposed to counterparty credit risk and any delay in, or non-receipt of, payments may materially and adversely affect our cash flows. The credit period offered by our business partners and suppliers is generally longer than what we generally grant our customers. There can be no assurance that we will not experience any significant cash flow mismatches in the future or that our business partners and suppliers will continue to offer us longer credit periods than what we offer our customers or that our cash flow management measures will function properly, or at all. This risk may be exacerbated if there is a further decrease in holding period of trade payables or there is a requirement to pay higher price for raw materials, spares and components or a requirement to pay excessive advances for procurement of materials. The details of our outstanding trade receivables as a percentage to our total revenue from operations have been provided in the table below: Particulars Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2025 Trade receivables (in ₹ million) 1,442.52 302.03 205.19 Revenue from operations (in ₹ million) 5,447.65 5,010.16 2,324.61 Percentage of the total revenue from operations 26.48% 6.03% 8.83% The financial condition of our customers, suppliers and other counterparties may be affected by the performance of their business which may be impacted by several factors including general economic conditions which may be beyond our control. A slowdown in the general economy or a potential credit crisis could cause our customers or suppliers to suffer disruptions in their businesses or experience financial distress, their access to the credit markets could be limited, and they could file for insolvency or bankruptcy protection and there can be no assurance regarding the continued viability of our counterparties or that we will accurately assess their creditworthiness. Such conditions could cause our customers to delay payment, request modifications of their payment terms, or default on their payment obligations to us, all of which could increase our receivables. There can be no assurance that we will be able to collect the whole or any part of any overdue payments and a significant delay in, or non-receipt of, large payments or non-performance by our customers, suppliers or other counterparties could adversely affect our cash flows and results of operations. Timely collection of dues from customers also depends on our ability to complete our contractual commitments and subsequently bill for and collect from our customers. If we are unable to meet our contractual obligations, we may experience delays in the collection of, or be unable to collect, our customer balances, which could adversely affect our cash flows and results of operations. 18. We recently incorporated some of our subsidiaries and accordingly these entities have no operating history. Some of our subsidiaries, such as ZNSHINE Solarworld Private Limited, Kartik Solarworld Private Limited and Solarworld BESS One Private Limited, have no operating history since each of these subsidiaries were incorporated recently. For details, refer to “History and Certain Corporate Matters – Our Subsidiaries” on page 227. Further, the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds are proposed to be utilised for investment in one such Subsidiary, Kartik Solarworld Private Limited, for part-financing the establishment of a 1.2 GW solar PV TopCon Cell manufacturing facility in Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh. For further details, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 102. In the event our Subsidiaries continue to remain non – operational or incur losses, we may need to provide financial support to such entities and our consolidated results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected. Additionally, we may not be able to recover our investment in such entities. 19. The projects that are included in our Order Book may be delayed, modified, cancelled not fully paid, or suspended by our customers and, therefore our Order Book is not necessarily indicative of our future revenue or profit. Our actual income may be significantly less than the estimates reflected in our Order Book. Any delay, failure or execution difficulty with respect to projects in our Order Book could materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition We define our Order Book as the total value of EPC contracts, BESS projects or other projects for which we have entered into definitive contracts or have been awarded letters of intent in respect of bids, minus the revenue already billed from those projects. The Order Book is unaudited and our Company cannot guarantee that the revenues indicated in by our Order Book will be realised or, if realised, will be realised on time or result in profits. As on July 31, 2025, our outstanding Order Book was ₹ 11,981.75 million for EPC projects, ₹ 12,717.00 million for BESS Projects and ₹ 579.39 million for O&M projects. Set forth below are the details of our Order Book organized by the types of services provided by us as of July 31, 2025 and the last three Fiscals 42Particulars Outstanding Percentage Outstanding as Percentage Outstanding Percentage Outstanding Percentage as of July 31, of Total of March 31, of Total as of March of Total as of March of Total 2025 (in ₹ Order Book 2025 (in ₹ Order 31, 2024 (in ₹ Order 31, 2023 (in Order Book million) million) Book million) Book ₹ million) EPC 11,981.75 47.40% 11,783.52 69.29% 7,692.32 94.57% 5,180.50 96.83% BESS 12,717.00 50.31% 4,653.00 27.36% - - - - O&M 579.39 2.29% 568.99 3.25% 441.76 5.43% 169.56 3.17% Total 25,278.14 100.00% 17,005.51 100.00% 8,134.08 100.00% 5,350.06 100.00% Order Book The manner in which we calculate and present our Order Book information may vary from the manner in which such information is calculated and presented by other companies, including our competitors. Our Order Book generally represents business that we expect to materialise in the foreseeable future, cancellations or scope or schedule adjustments may, and do occur. Although we have not had instances of cancellation, termination or suspension in the last three Fiscals, certain of our contracts are subject to cancellation, termination, or suspension at the discretion of the customer at any stage of the contract. There can be no assurance that orders will not be short closed, cancelled or reduced, or that customers will fulfil their payment obligations and other obligations, in a timely manner or at all, in accordance with the agreements, or that customers will not dispute the amounts owed to us. 20. Our Promoter Selling Shareholders have provided corporate guarantees to lenders for certain loan facilities availed by our Company, which if invoked may adversely affect our Promoters’ ability to manage the affairs of our Company and which in turn may adversely impact our business and operations. Our Promoter Selling Shareholders have issued corporate guarantees for working capital facilities and term loans availed by our Company and its wholly owned subsidiary ZNShine Solarworld Private Limited from HDFC Bank Limited and Kotak Mahindra Bank, respectively. In the event of default in repayment of such borrowings by our Company and ZNShine Solarworld Private Limited, these guarantees may be invoked by the lenders thereby adversely affecting our Promoters’ ability to manage the affairs of our Company and further reduce our Company’s ability to leverage its debt and this, in turn, could adversely affect our business and operations. The table below lists the details of the facility availed and the guarantee provided: Sr. Guarantee Amount Outstanding Date of Period of Guarantee Guarantee Borrower Reason for No. issued by sanctioned amount as guarantee guarantee issued in Amount the as on July on July 31, favour of (in ₹ guarantee 31, 2025 2025 (in ₹ million) (in ₹ million) million) 1.

Our operations are subject to extensive regulations, which require us to obtain, renew and comply with the terms of various approvals, licenses and permits. Failure to obtain such licenses and permits will adversely affect our operations and may have an impact on our cash flows. 43The power generation business in India is subject to a broad range of environmental, health, safety and other laws and regulations. These laws and regulations require us to obtain and maintain a large number of approvals, licenses, registrations and permits in order to develop and operate power projects. For example, we require various approvals during the construction of our projects and prior to the issuing of a commissioning certificate, including approvals for capacity allocation and capacity transfer, evacuation and grid connectivity and approvals from the chief electrical inspector for the installation and energization of electrical installations at a project site. In addition, we are required to comply with state-specific and other centre-specific requirements. The establishment of power plants may disrupt existing land use and wildlife habitat. Further, the disposal of solar panels can lead to the release of toxins into the earth and the atmosphere. In addition, our operations, which involve the installation of overhead powerlines to transmit electricity produced, even if compliant with applicable environmental standards, may negatively affect the living situation of wildlife and biodiversity in the area and we may suffer negative publicity and reputational harm as a result. While there have been no such instances in the last three Fiscals, if our operations violate environmental standards, we may incur costs to control and rectify the damage, legal liabilities including damages, penalties, loss of licenses, and damage to our reputation as a responsible operator, which may affect our ability to retain existing business and win new business. In the future, changes in law may result in stricter regulation. Compliance with these requirements may add to our capital expenditures and operating expenses and we may not be able to pass on these additional costs to our customers. We cannot assure you that we will be able to apply for or renew any approvals, licenses, registrations or permits in a timely manner, or at all, and that the relevant authorities will issue any of such approvals, licenses, registrations or permits in the time frames anticipated by us. While we are required to obtain licenses and approvals before the commencement of the projects we undertake, any unforeseen delay can affect our operations. Further, we cannot assure you that the approvals, licenses, registrations and permits issued to us would not be subject to suspension or revocation for non-compliance or alleged non-compliance with any terms or conditions thereof, or pursuant to any regulatory action. Our government approvals and licenses are subject to numerous conditions, some of which are onerous and require us to make substantial expenditure. Any failure to apply for, renew and obtain the required approvals, licenses, registrations or permits, or any suspension or revocation of any of the approvals, licenses, registrations and permits that have been or may be issued to us, or any onerous conditions made applicable to us in terms of such approvals, licenses, registrations or permits may adversely affect our business, prospects, reputation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For further details about regulations and policies that affect our operations and the approvals required from relevant statutory authorities, please see “Key Regulations and Policies” and “Government and Other Approvals” on pages 212 and 403, respectively. 22. Our operating results may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter due to seasonality. There can be no assurance that our historical results are an indicator of our future performance, and such fluctuations may have an adverse effect on our business operations and cash flows. Our quarterly operating results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate significantly in the future. We have experienced seasonal and quarterly fluctuations in the past, especially in the monsoon seasons and we may experience the same in future. For example, we have historically booked majority of our revenue from operations in the first two quarters of a particular Fiscal year. During the monsoon season, our project sites may become inaccessible, affecting the transportation of materials and hindering on-ground execution, potentially causing delays in project timelines. As such, our past quarterly operating results may not be good indicators of our future performance. The following factors could cause our operating results to fluctuate: • Climate change and extreme weather events can affect the performance and reliability of renewable energy systems, potentially leading to disruptions or damage to infrastructure; and • Economic downturns and financial instability can reduce capital available for renewable energy investments. For these or other reasons, the results of any prior quarterly or annual periods should not be relied upon as indications of our future performance. In addition, with respect to the above factors, our actual revenue, key operating and financial metrics and other operating results in future quarters may fall short of the expectations of investors and financial analysts. 23. Our business and profitability are substantially dependent on the availability and cost of our raw materials, and any disruption to the timely and adequate supply of raw materials, or volatility in the prices of raw materials may adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. 44We procure our raw materials, including photovoltaic cells, solar panels, inverters, transformers, electrical panels, cables amongst other materials from third parties based on purchase orders and generally do not have firm commitments from our suppliers. Our cost of material consumed is a significant portion of our total expenses. The table below sets forth details of our top supplier, top five suppliers and top 10 suppliers with purchase breakup of the last three Fiscals: Particulars Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2025 Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of total Cost of total Cost of total Cost of material material material consumed consumed consumed (₹ in (₹ in (₹ in million) (%) (%) (%) million) million) Top supplier 1,082.76 38.34 1,052.56 27.60 521.14 28.67 Top 5 suppliers 2,071.30 73.34 2,538.77 66.58 1,285.77 70.75 Top 10 suppliers 2,498.33 88.46 3,139.54 82.34 1,578.37 86.85 Total cost of material consumed 2,824.23 100.00 3,813.10 100.00 1,817.45 100.00 The table below sets forth details of our cost of material consumed, including as a percentage of total revenue from operations, from India, China and other jurisdictions during the last three Fiscals: Particulars Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2025 Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of revenue from revenue from revenue from operations operations operations (₹ million) (%) (₹ million) (%) (₹ million) (%) Cost of materials consumed 2,824.23 51.84 3,813.10 76.11 1,817.45 78.18 - From India 2,823.03 51.82 3,322.06 66.31 1,637.93 70.46 - From China 1.20 0.02 491.04 9.80 179.52 7.72 The absence of long-term contracts at fixed prices and the need to maintain a continued supply of raw materials may make it difficult to resist price increases imposed by our suppliers. Additionally, our practice of absorbing minor cost fluctuations without adjusting product pricing exposes us to the risk of margin erosion. Our reliance on third-party suppliers without long-term contracts or exclusive arrangements exposes us to supply chain risks. Potential disruptions, such as supplier insolvency, natural disasters, or increased material costs, could impact our production, leading to delays, increased costs, or product shortages. We may be unable to source such raw materials from alternative suppliers on similar commercial terms and within a reasonable timeframe. As our operations are governed by applicable laws, including environmental regulations, manufacturing laws, and strict quality requirements specified in customer contracts, our supplier base is limited. This limitation exacerbates the risk of being unable to find alternative arrangements. While our suppliers have not terminated their arrangements with us at short notice in Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023, we may be unable to find suitable alternatives in the event our suppliers terminate their engagements with us in the future. Furthermore, as we typically do not have exclusive arrangements with our suppliers, our suppliers could engage with our competitors and prioritize supplies of their other customers, which could adversely impact our ability to procure a sufficient quantity of raw materials at competitive rates. Ultimately, our success depends on the uninterrupted supply of raw materials to our manufacturing facilities which is subject to various uncertainties and risks. A failure to maintain a continuous supply of raw materials may result in our inability to manufacture and supply products to our customers in accordance with the respective contract and on a timely basis which might have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further we are required to pay advances to our suppliers from time to time and there is no assurance that such advances will be fully recovered. 24. Our Company has in the past undertaken a bonus issue which may impact the ability of the Company to declare dividends or undertake bonus issuances in the future Pursuant to the board resolution dated August 19, 2024 and shareholders’ resolution, each dated August 22, 2024, our Company capitalised a sum from and out of the amount to the credit of the securities premium account of the Company 45for the purpose of issuance and allotment of Equity Shares by way of bonus issue (“Bonus Issue”) to all its shareholders as on the record date of August 22, 2024, in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended. The allotment was in the ratio of 100 Equity Shares for one Equity Share held by the shareholders of the Company as on August 22, 2024. For details, see “Capital Structure –Shares issued for consideration other than cash or by way of bonus issue or out of revaluation reserves” on page 90. Set forth below is the extent of reserve pre and post bonus issuance: Particulars Pre – Bonus Issue (in ₹ million) Post – Bonus Issue (in ₹ million) Reserve (security premium) 526.99 175.44 The Company’s securities premium account stood at ₹ 1,230.50 million as on the date of this Prospectus. The utilisation of the Company’s free reserves in the past to undertake the aforesaid Bonus Issue may impact our Company’s ability to declare dividends and undertake similar bonus issuances in the future. 25. None of our Directors have prior experience of holding a directorship in a listed company. Except for Sushil Kumar Jain, who served as a director at Winsome Breweries Limited, a company with listed equity shares, from 2002 to 2017, none of our Directors have prior experience holding directorships in a listed company. For further details, please see, “Our Management – Brief profiles of our Directors” starting on page 238. Following listing of the Equity Shares, our Company will be subject to applicable corporate governance requirements under the SEBI Listing Regulations, including additional compliance and disclosure requirements. Any non-compliance with the regulatory framework, arising as a result of lack of experience of our Directors, may subject us to adverse regulatory actions, and may adversely impact our reputation, financial condition and Equity Share price 26. Security breaches, cyber-attacks, computer viruses and hacking activities may cause material adverse effects on our business, financial performance and results of operations and expose us to liability, which could adversely affect our business and our reputation. Cyber-attacks, computer viruses or other unauthorized activity to our system, internal network, our customers’ systems, third party’s systems and information that they store and process, involving us or our third-party service providers that we rely on for cloud storage or data processing may cause material adverse effects on our business, financial performance and results of operations. Any inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could expose us to a material risk of loss or litigation and possible liability. Hacking, computer viruses and phishing attacks could result in damage to our hardware and software systems and databases, disruptions to our business activities, including to our email and other communications systems, breaches of security and the inadvertent disclosure of confidential or sensitive information, interruptions in access to our website through the use of “denial of service” or similar attacks, and other material adverse effects on our operations. As techniques used to breach security change or evolve frequently and are often not recognized until launched against a target, we may not be able to implement new security measures in a timely manner or, if and when implemented, could be circumvented. Moreover, if a computer virus or hacking affects our systems and is highly publicized, our reputation and brand names could be materially damaged. Any attempts to gain access to our systems or facilities through various means, including hacking into our or our customers’ systems or facilities, or attempting to fraudulently induce our employees, customers or others into disclosing usernames, passwords, or other sensitive information, which may in turn be used to access our IT systems and gain access to our or our customers’ data or other confidential, proprietary, or sensitive information, could have a material adverse impact on our reputation, business and results of operations. While there have been no such instances of breach of security in the last three Fiscals, if security measures are breached because of employee theft, exfiltration, misuse or malfeasance, our or third party actions, omissions, or errors, unintentional events, deliberate attacks by cyber criminals or otherwise, or if design flaws in our software or systems are exposed and exploited, our relationships with customers could be damaged, and we could incur liability. 27. We may be subject to unforeseen costs, liabilities or obligations when providing O&M services. In addition, certain of our O&M contracts include provisions permitting the counterparty to terminate the agreement for convenience. This may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We provide ongoing O&M services to our customers for whom we have commissioned EPC contracts or, separately, under O&M contracts executed with third-parties, pursuant to which we generally perform standard activities associated with operating a fully or partially commissioned solar power project, including monitoring, control, data recording and reporting, compliance activities, energy forecasting, scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, cleaning and overall operational management of the project. The table below sets forth the details of the revenue from O&M services for the Fiscals years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023: 46Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Revenue from O&M and other 56.97 44.15 22.05 services (in ₹ million) Percentage of the total revenue 1.05% 0.88% 0.95% from operations of the Company The duration of the O&M contracts are generally fixed for period ranging from two to five years. Upon the expiry of these contracts, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue providing O&M services for those projects, which could impact our future revenue streams. Additionally, after the termination of our O&M services, we will no longer have control over the maintenance and operation of such installations. While there have been no such instances in the last three Fiscals, where our customers have terminated such O&M contracts before the expiry of the fixed term, we cannot assure you that none of our customers will not terminate their O&M contracts. In cases of premature termination, as per our O&M contracts we are able to recover the actual costs incurred on the O&M services provided till such termination, however we do not recover the total payments which are due as per the contract. The exercise of such termination rights, or the use of such rights as leverage to re-negotiate terms and conditions of the O&M contract, including pricing terms, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 28. Technological changes, evolving customer requirements and emerging industry trends may affect our business, may render our current technologies obsolete and may require us to make substantial capital investments. If we are unable to adapt in a timely manner to changing market conditions, evolving customer requirements or technological changes, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Our business functions in a sector highly dependant on technology and as a result the possibility of technological obsolescence is greater than companies in more conventional industries. Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to respond to technological advances, evolving customer requirements and emerging industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis. The development and implementation of such technology entails technical and business risk and significant implementation costs. Our management and design and engineering teams keep themselves abreast with the latest developments in the solar cell and modules technology. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully implement new technologies or adapt our processing systems to evolving customer requirements or emerging industry standards. For instance, although we use TopCon cell capabilities in our EPC projects and have plans to enter into manufacturing of such cells, there can be no assurance that TopCon will be the future technologies for solar cells. Changes in technology may make newer solutions more competitive than ours or may require us to make additional capital expenditure to upgrade our facilities and technology. If we are unable, for technical, legal, financial or other reasons, to adapt in a timely manner to changing market conditions, evolving customer requirements or technological changes, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. 29. Our funding requirements and the proposed deployment of Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or any other independent agency and our management will have broad discretion over the use of the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds. We intend to utilize the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds for capital expenditure required for setting up a new manufacturing facility at Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh, and for general corporate purposes. Our funding requirements mentioned in this Prospectus have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution and are based on management estimates and internal management information systems and our business plan. Based on the competitive nature of our industry, we may have to revise our business plan and/or management estimates from time to time and consequently our funding requirements may also change. Accordingly, prospective investors in the Offer will need to rely upon our management’s judgment with respect to the use of Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds. The use of the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds for purposes identified by our management may not result in actual growth of our business, increased profitability or an increase in the value of our business and your investment. Further, certain other information contained in this Prospectus, apart from our funding requirements and our intended use of Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds, have not been appraised by any bank, financial institution or independent agency are based on management estimates and internal management information systems and our business plan. We may have to revise our funding estimates, future projects and the estimated commencement and completion dates of our projects depending on future contingencies and events, including, among others, changes in laws and regulations, competition, the receipt of statutory and regulatory approvals and permits, the ability of third parties to complete their services on schedule and on budget, delays, cost overruns or modifications to our future projects, the commencement of new projects and new initiatives and changes in our business plans due to prevailing economic conditions. 47For further details, please see “Objects of the Offer” on page 102. 30. A portion of our funding requirements and proposed deployment of the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds are based on management estimates and may be subject to change based on various factors, some of which are beyond our control. While our Company will receive proceeds from the Fresh Issue and the Pre-IPO Proceeds, it will not receive any proceeds from the Offer for Sale. We intend to use the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds for the purposes described in “Objects of the Offer” on page 102 of this Prospectus. As on the date of this Prospectus, our funding requirements are based on management estimates, current circumstances of our business, the prevailing market condition and other commercial and technical factors and have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or any other independent agency. They are based on current conditions and are subject to change in light of financial condition, business strategy and external factors such as market conditions, competitive environment and interest or exchange rate fluctuations and other external factors which may not be within the control of our management. While we will use the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds for purposes such as investment for the greenfield project in relation to setup of the manufacturing facility for the manufacture of solar PV TopCon cell at Pandhurana, Madhya Pradesh, the amount of Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds to be actually used will be based on our management’s discretion. However, the deployment of the Gross Proceeds will be monitored by a monitoring agency appointed pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Our internal management estimates may exceed fair market value or the value that would have been determined by third-party appraisals, which may require us to reschedule or reallocate our expenditure and may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. 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 and the Pre-IPO Proceeds. If we are unable to deploy the Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds in a timely or an efficient manner, it may affect our business and the results of operations. 31. The generation of electricity from solar source depends heavily on suitable meteorological and climate conditions and our business prospects and future financial performance depends on such favourable and stable conditions. Unfavourable weather conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The electricity produced and revenues generated by our solar projects are highly dependent on suitable solar irradiation levels, associated weather conditions and other climate conditions (including conditions resulting from man-made causes, such as smog conditions from crop burning or industrial pollution), which are beyond our control. Unfavourable weather and atmospheric conditions could impair the effectiveness of our assets or reduce their output beneath their rated capacity or require the shutdown of key equipment, impeding the operations of our solar assets and our ability to achieve certain performance thresholds pursuant to our power purchase agreements (“PPAs”), forecasted revenues and cash flows. The occurrence of natural disasters, which may lead to or exacerbate any existing technical defaults in our grid systems, may result in a complete shutdown of certain of our projects for a prolonged period of time. Under the terms of our EPC contracts, we are typically required to maintain certain minimum capacity utilization factor (“CUF”) levels at our power plants, failing which, we are required to provide monetary compensation by paying for the shortfall at the average power purchase cost. While our EPC contracts contain force majeure provisions which allow us to avail relief in case of any breach of our obligations on account of certain events, which include, amongst others, acts of god such as typhoons, floods, cyclones, earthquakes, tsunamis, there cannot be any assurance that we will be able to enforce any such relief. Accordingly, any failure to maintain power generation outputs could make us suffer monetary consequences, which may adversely affect our cash flows and financial condition. We base our investment decisions with respect to each of our solar project on the findings of related solar resource assessments and other technical studies conducted on-site prior to construction. However, actual climatic conditions at a project site may not conform to the findings of these studies and therefore, our facilities may not meet the anticipated production levels or the rated capacity of our generation assets, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Sustained unfavourable weather could unexpectedly delay the installation of solar energy systems, which could increase the cost of such projects. 32.

Our intellectual property rights may not be adequately protected against third party infringement. This could have a material adverse effect on our business which in turn adversely affect results of operations. We have filed an application for grant of trademark in India for our logo “ ” under class 9 of the Trademarks Act as on the date of this Prospectus. Our application has been objected pursuant to an objection dated April 3, 2024. In the situation where we do not obtain such registration, it would adversely impact our reputation and presence in the market. Our process knowledge and execution capabilities are significant independent assets, which may not be adequately protected by intellectual property rights such as patent registration. Some of our process knowledge is protected only by secrecy. As a result, we cannot be certain that our process knowledge will remain confidential in the long run. A significant number of our employees have access to confidential customer design and process knowledge of the services and there can be no assurance that this information will remain confidential. Moreover, certain of our employees may leave us and join our various competitors or form a competing business. The potential damage from such disclosure is increased as many of our designs and products are not patented, and thus we may have no recourse against copies of our products and designs that enter the market subsequent to such leakages. In the event that the confidential technical information in respect of our products or business becomes available to third parties or to the general public, any competitive advantage we may have over other companies in the precision products sector could be harmed. If a competitor is able to reproduce or otherwise capitalize on our technology, it may be difficult, expensive or impossible for us to obtain necessary legal protection. Consequently, any leakage of confidential technical information could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects. 34. Our Company and some of our Directors, Promoters, Subsidiaries and Group Companies are involved in certain legal and other proceedings. Any adverse outcome in such proceedings may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In the ordinary course of business, our Company and some of our Directors, Promoters, Subsidiaries and Group Companies are involved in certain legal proceedings, which are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals and statutory, regulatory and other judicial authorities in India, and, if determined adversely, could affect our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition. We cannot assure you that these legal proceedings will be decided favourably or that no further liability will arise from these claims in the future. A summary of outstanding litigation involving our Company, Directors, Promoters, Subsidiaries, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management (“Relevant Parties”) (as applicable) are set forth below: Name of entity Criminal Tax Statutory or Disciplinary Material civil Aggregate amount proceedings proceedings regulatory actions by the litigations# involved* (₹ in million) proceedings SEBI or Stock Exchanges against our Promoters Company By our Company Nil Nil NA NA Nil Nil Against our Company Nil 3 Nil NA Nil 7.71 Directors (Other than our Promoters) 49Name of entity Criminal Tax Statutory or Disciplinary Material civil Aggregate amount proceedings proceedings regulatory actions by the litigations# involved* (₹ in million) proceedings SEBI or Stock Exchanges against our Promoters By our Directors Nil Nil NA NA Nil Nil Against our Directors Nil Nil Nil NA Nil Nil Promoters By our Promoters 1 Nil NA NA 1 Nil Against our Promoters Nil 2 Nil Nil Nil 1.86 Subsidiaries By our Subsidiaries Nil Nil NA NA Nil Nil Against our Nil Nil Nil NA Nil Nil Subsidiaries Key Managerial Personnel^ By our Key Nil NA NA NA NA Nil Managerial Personnel Against our Key Nil NA Nil NA NA Nil Managerial Personnel Senior Management^^ By our Senior Nil NA NA NA NA Nil Management Against our Senior Nil NA Nil NA NA Nil Management * To the extent quantifiable. # In accordance with the Materiality Policy. ^ Other than the Executive Directors of our Company ^^ Other than the Key Managerial Personnel of our Company As on the date of this Prospectus, there is no outstanding litigation involving our Group Companies which may have a material impact on our Company. Involvement in such proceedings could divert our management’s time and attention. For details, please see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” on page 398. Our Company currently does not have any group company. We cannot assure you that any of the outstanding material litigation matters will be settled in our favour or in favour of the Relevant Parties, or that no additional liability will arise out of these proceedings. The amounts claimed in these proceedings have been disclosed to the extent ascertainable and include amounts claimed jointly and severally. Further, SEBI has issued an adjudication order dated December 31, 2019 (“Order”) pertaining to the buying, selling, and dealing in shares of Gangotri Textiles Limited and addressing Mr. Praveen Poddar in his individual capacity. While one of our Promoters, Sushil Kumar Jain and one of our Promoter Group members, Pioneer TCP Stock Brokers Private Limited, among others have been named in the Order, the final findings of SEBI in the Order pertains solely to Mr. Praveen Poddar. Further, Pioneer TCP Stock Brokers Private Limited and Sushil Kumar Jain were not named as parties in the Order. We cannot assure you that there will not be any subsequent action in such matter involving one of our Promoters, Sushil Kumar Jain and one of our Promoter Group members, Pioneer TCP Stock Brokers Private Limited. Any negative regulatory action in this regard, could significantly impair our ability to access capital markets in the future, limiting our growth and strategic options. If any new developments arise, such as a change in Indian law or rulings against us by appellate courts or tribunals, we may need to make provisions in our financial statements that could increase our expenses and current liabilities. Any adverse decision in any of these proceedings may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 35. Any downgrade in our credit ratings may increase interest rates for refinancing our borrowings, which would increase our cost of borrowings, and adversely affect our ability to borrow on a competitive basis. Credit ratings reflect the opinions of ratings agencies on our financial strength, operating performance, strategic position and ability to meet our obligations. For instance, we have received a long-term rating of CARE BBB+ (Stable) as of February 13, 2025. Although, there has been no downgrade in our credit rating in the last three Fiscals, any future downgrade in our credit ratings may result in increased interest rates for refinancing our borrowings, which would increase our cost of borrowings, and may adversely affect our future issuances of debt and our ability to borrow on a 50competitive basis. Further, any downgrade in our credit ratings may also lead to an increase in the interest rate that we have to pay our lenders. If any of these risks materialize, it could materially and adversely affect our business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations. 36. If we are unsuccessful in implementing our strategies, particularly our growth strategy, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected. The success of our business depends greatly on our ability to effectively implement our strategies, particularly our growth strategy. The key focus of our business strategies is portfolio growth. Our portfolio growth is dependent on our ability to bid and acquire future projects. Further, our business has historically been concentrated in states like Uttar Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Haryana and Delhi. Accordingly, we have limited experience in expanding our geographical footprint in pursuing portfolio growth. For more details, please refer to “Our Business – Strategies” on page 196. Even if we have successfully executed our business strategies in the past, we cannot assure you that we will be able to execute our strategies on time and within the estimated budget, or that we will achieve expected results. We expect our strategies to place significant demands on our management and other resources and require us to continue developing and improving our operational, financial and other internal controls as well as technology system. We may be unable to sustain such growth in revenues and profits or maintain a similar rate of growth in the future. Further, as we grow and diversify, we may be unable to execute our projects efficiently, which could result in delays, increased costs and diminished quality and may adversely affect our reputation. If we are unable to implement our growth strategy effectively, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected. Implementing our growth strategy will also depend to a significant extent on our ability to obtain the necessary funding and maintain our access to multiple funding sources on acceptable terms. We require significant capital to grow our business and fund the construction, operation and development of our projects under the RESCO Model. Historically, we have used loans and equity contributions to fund our project development. We may refinance our current debt or incur additional debt with proceeds from third party financing options, including any bank loans, equity partners, financial leases and securitization. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in refinancing our current debt or locating additional suitable sources of financing in the time periods required or at all, or on terms or at costs that we find attractive or acceptable. In addition, rising interest rates could adversely impact our ability to secure financing on favourable terms. Installing and constructing solar projects under the RESCO Model requires significant upfront capital expenditure and there may be a significant delay before we can recoup our investments through the long-term recurring revenue of our projects. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to our shareholders and any debt financing may contain restrictive covenants that limit our flexibility going forward. Furthermore, our credit ratings may be downgraded, which would adversely affect our ability to refinance debt and increase our cost of borrowing. Failure to manage discretionary spending and raise additional capital or debt financing as required may adversely impact our ability to achieve our intended business objectives. For details regarding our financial indebtedness, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 394. 37. The operation of our businesses is highly dependent on information technology, and we are subject to risks arising from any failure of, or inadequacies in, our information technology (“IT”) system. Our operations rely heavily on the effectiveness of our IT systems and rely on our IT systems for various internal processes, such as procurement, staffing, customer relations and accounting. We also need to have sophisticated technology systems in place to anticipate and meet the further growth and expansion requirements of our business. Any failure of, or inadequacies in our IT systems would impair our ability to effectively carry out our business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our competitiveness, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. While we regularly monitor and upgrade our IT systems, we cannot assure that we will be able to continue to do so in the future in a time and cost-efficient manner. Although we back up our business data regularly and have a contingency disaster recovery database / back up for our businesses, there is no assurance that our disaster recovery planning is adequate for all eventualities. Our technology operations are also vulnerable to disruptions from human error, catastrophic events including natural disasters, power failure, computer viruses, spam attacks, ransom ware, distributed denial of services attacks, unauthorized access, data leakage and other similar events, and we may not be able to adapt to the evolving technology in the industry. An external information security breach, such as hacker attacks, frauds, virus or worm infestation of our IT systems, or an internal problem with information protection, such as failure to control access to sensitive systems, could materially interrupt our business operations or cause disclosure or modification of sensitive or confidential information. 5138. We may be subject to significant risks and hazards when operating and maintaining our solar power projects, for which our insurance coverage might not be adequate. Failure to maintain adequate insurance coverage can trigger breach of the relevant EPC contracts thereby having a material adverse impact on our operations. Power generation involves hazardous activities, including delivering electricity to transmission and distribution system We may be subject to significant risks and hazards during the operation and maintenance of our solar power projects, including natural disasters, earthquake, fire, flood, lightning, cyclones and other hazards, such as equipment failures structural collapse and other unforeseen events. These and other hazards can cause significant personal injury or loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property, plant and equipment and contamination of, or damage to, the environment and may result in the suspension of operations. While there have been no such instances in the last three Fiscals, the occurrence of any one of these events may result in our being named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting claims for substantial damages, including for cleanup costs, personal injury and property damage and fines and/or penalties. We maintain an amount of insurance protection that we consider adequate, but we cannot provide any assurance that our insurance will be sufficient or effective under all circumstances and against all hazards or liabilities to which we may be subject. Our insurance coverage for our Ongoing Projects as of July 31, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023 are provided in the table below: Particulars As of July 31, 2025 As at March 31, As at March 31, As at March 31, 2023 2025 2024 Insurance coverage 54,788.85 51,539.98 12,004.20 20,978.71 (in ₹ million) Failure to maintain or obtain adequate insurance coverage could result in breaches of the relevant EPC contracts, which may expose us to contractual liabilities. Such breaches may lead to penalties, project delays, or contract terminations, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Inadequate insurance coverage may also affect our ability to secure future projects or financing, further exacerbating potential risks. While there has been no instance in the last three Fiscals where any event occurred where we experienced losses exceeding our insurance coverage, there is no assurance that such instance will not arise in the future. Our insurance coverage is subject to deductibles, caps, exclusions and other limitations. A loss for which we are not fully insured could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Due to rising insurance costs and changes in the insurance markets, we cannot provide any assurance that our insurance coverage will continue to be available at all or at rates or on terms similar to those presently available. Any losses not covered by insurance could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We cannot assure you that any of our insurance claims will be honoured fully or on time. While there have been no instances of any insurance claim exceeding the liability covered under insurance in last three Fiscals, any payments we make to cover any losses, damages or liabilities or any delays we experience in receiving appropriate payments from our insurers could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. For details regarding our insurance, see “Our Business – Insurance” on page 205. 39. Employee shortages, rising employee costs and high attrition rates may harm our business and increase our operation costs, which could have a significant impact on the operations of our Company We are dependent on a highly qualified, experienced and capable management team for setting our strategic business direction and managing our business. Our ability to meet continued success and future business challenges depends on our ability to attract, recruit and retain experienced, talented and skilled professionals. Without a sufficient number of skilled employees, our operations and manufacturing quality could suffer. Competition for qualified technical personnel as well as sales personnel with established customer relationships is intense, both in retaining our existing employees and when replacing or finding additional suitable employees. As of July 31, 2025, we had 277 full-time employees who performed a variety of functions across the business operations of our Company. Our attrition rate for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 are provided in the table below: Particulars As of March 31, 2025 As of March 31, 2024 As of March 31, 2023 Attrition rate (%) 34.00% 11.36% 22.82% The low-cost workforce in India provides us with a cost advantage. However, we have observed an overall tightening of the employee market and an emerging shortage of skilled labour. Failure to obtain stable and dedicated employee support may cause disruption to our business that harms our operations. Furthermore, employee costs have increased in India in recent years and may continue to increase in the near future. To remain competitive, we may need to increase 52the salaries of employees to attract and retain them, which may in turn lead to increased costs and reduced margins. For details regarding our human resources, see “Our Business – Human Resources” on page 208. We may also require a long period of time to hire and train replacement personnel when skilled personnel terminate their employment with us. We may also be required to increase our levels of employee compensation and benefits more rapidly than in the past to remain competitive in attracting skilled personnel. If we cannot attract and retain qualified personnel, it could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Large scale attrition, especially at the senior management level, can make it difficult for us to manage and grow our business. The loss of key managerial personnel or our inability to replace them could hinder our ability to grow, to execute our strategy, enhance our brand image, secure funding, make strategic decisions and to manage running of our operations, which would have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. 40. We are dependent on our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management. If we are unable to retain our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management, it can have a material adverse impact on our business performance. We are dependent on our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management as well as persons with technical expertise for setting our strategic business direction and managing our business. In addition, we depend on the continued services and performances of management personnel at our Company and our Subsidiaries for project implementation, the management and running of our daily operations and the planning and the successful execution of our business strategy. The loss of one or more key executives could have a negative impact on our business Except as disclosed in the section titled “Our Management” on page 236, we have not experienced any attrition of Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel or members of the Senior Management, in the last three Fiscals. We cannot assure you that we will be able to retain our employees or find adequate replacements in a timely manner, or at all. There is intense competition for experienced management personnel with technical and industry expertise in the renewable energy business. In particular, any loss or interruption in the services of our Senior Management would significantly affect our ability to effectively manage our operations and to meet our strategic objectives. In addition, we would incur additional expenses and need to devote significant time and resources to recruit and train replacement personnel, which could further disrupt our business and growth. 41. Our EPC projects and subsequent O&M services are subject to risks of operational hazards and can cause injury to people or property in certain circumstances, the occurrence of which may hamper our reputation, business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our business operations require individuals to work with heavy machinery and other materials at significant heights and involving the manual handling of large and heavy components. These activities could cause potential harm and injury due to human errors or machine malfunctions. Although there have been no fatal incidents which have occurred at our project sites in the last three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that there will be no accident or injury at our project sites in the future. Any accident or injury that occurs in the course of our operations could result in disruptions to our business and have legal and regulatory consequences and we may be required to compensate such individuals or incur other costs and liabilities, any and all of which could adversely affect our reputation, business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, there can be no assurance that our insurance policies will provide adequate coverage in the event of a legal claim. 42. Our company faces a potential risk related to the future pricing and commercial viability of domestically manufactured solar cells. Our Company faces a potential risk related to the future pricing and commercial viability of domestically manufactured solar cells. Consequently, the commercial viability of the production line is expected to be maintained as long as the selling price remains above the cost of manufacturing these solar cells. Given the prevailing prices and the expected reduction due to capacity additions, the plant is projected to achieve commercial viability immediately upon reaching commercial operation in March 2027. If the market price falls below the manufacturing cost, it could pose a significant risk to our company’s financial performance. 43. We have indebtedness and have also guaranteed, and provided collateral to secure, certain financing obligations of our Subsidiaries, all these could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. As on March 31, 2025, we had total borrowings (including current maturity of term loans) of ₹ 1,145.54 million, with a debt to equity ratio of 0.37. Generally, these borrowings relate to the financing for our projects and are secured by project assets. Subject to the limits contained in agreements governing our existing borrowings, we and our Subsidiaries may incur substantial additional borrowings from time to time to finance working capital, capital 53expenditures, investments or acquisitions, or for other purposes in the future. Additionally, our Company has provided and availed certain loans / advances from the related parties. For details see, “Summary of Offer Document – Summary of Related Party Transactions” and “Financial Information – Note 38. Related Party Disclosures” on pages 22 and 317. For further detail regarding our indebtedness, please see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 394. Our debt and leverage position could have significant consequences on our operations, including: • reducing the availability of our cash flows to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes as a result of our debt service obligations. • limiting our ability to obtain additional financing. • impact our credit rating. • limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business, the industry in which we operate and the general economy; and • increasing the cost of any additional financing. We are subject to certain restrictive covenants under these loan agreements and our inability to generate sufficient cash flows to satisfy those obligations and covenants under the guarantees and loan agreements could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of some or all our debt, and would materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. While some of these guarantees may be released, provided that certain conditions under the terms of the financing arrangements are met by the Subsidiaries, there can be no assurance that the Company’s Subsidiaries will be able to meet those conditions and the Company’s guarantee obligations will remain until such time these conditions are satisfied. While there have been no instances in the last three Fiscals where we have failed to meet our guarantee obligations, we cannot assure you that we will continue to meet all our guarantee obligations in the future. For further details, please see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 394. Our ability to meet our payment obligations under our outstanding debt depends on our ability to generate significant cash flows in the future. If any such loans / advances are not recoverable, it may necessitate provisions for bad debts, which would reduce profits. Additionally, any impairment of securities would negatively impact the balance sheet and income statement. We are in the early stages of operations, with our operational projects only recently commencing operations and many of our projects capitalized in the recent financial years and currently in the construction stage. These projects are expected to be operational in subsequent periods. We use cash flow forecasting models in an effort to ensure that we have sufficient funds to meet our payments when due. These models consider the maturity of our financial investments, committed funding and projected cash flows from operations. However, our model is subject to uncertainties and assumptions and overall, our ability to generate cash flows is, to some extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors, as well as other factors that are beyond our control. We may have difficulty in meeting our payment obligations, which could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of some or all our debt. 44. If our contingent liabilities materialize, our results of operations could be adversely affected. The following table sets forth the principal components of our contingent liabilities as of March 31, 2025: (₹ in million) Particulars As of March 31, As of March 31, As of March 31, 2025 2024 2023 Disputed statutory liability of Company (refer note (i)) 7.71 7.71 - Corporate guarantees for financial obligations of other 65.42 70.27 - related party (refer note (ii)) Corporate guarantees for financial obligations of 660.16 - - subsidiary (refer note (ii)) Corporate guarantees for financial obligations of joint 2.78 9.48 15.51 ventures (refer note (ii)) Disputed loan and advances of Company (refer note (iii)) - - 38.56 Note: (i) Disputed demand for Income tax includes a dispute of Rs.7.71 millions for financial year 2022- 23 between the Company and income tax department for which the Company has filed appeals with respective authorities. The Company also believes that the above issues, when finally settled are not likely to have any significant impact on the financial position of the Company. (ii) The Company had provided a corporate guarantee to the bank for financing extended to joint venture, subsidiary and related party. In the event that the joint venture, subsidiary and related party fails to meet its repayment obligations of loan, the Company will be required to fulfill the loan obligations. However, corporate guarantee was issued based on the joint venture, subsidiary's and related party creditworthiness and its strong repayment history, with no prior defaults. Therefore, the Company has not recognised a liability in 54relation to this corporate guarantee given to joint venture and related party. The impact of corporate guarantee commission is not material to the Company. (iii) The Company had given total advances of Rs. Nil (March 31, 2023: Rs. 38.56 millions and April 01, 2022: Rs. 38.56 millions) in different tranches requirements to Karmic Energy Private Limited ("KEPL") for acquiring majority stake in the said Company. The Company had also remitted as a partial payment towards one time settlement of Karmic Energy Private Limited Loan Account with State Bank of India in financial year 2020-21. The matter is subjudice & being followed up. Our contingent liabilities include corporate guarantees for financial obligations of our Company, other related party, joint ventures and disputed loans and advances of Karmic Energy Private Limited. Most of the liabilities have been incurred in the normal course of business. If these contingent liabilities were to fully materialize or materialize at a level higher than we expect, it may materially and adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. If we are unable to recover payment from our customers in respect of the commitments that we are called upon to fulfil, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely impacted. For further information, see “Financial Information” on page 263. 45. We may be subject to unionisation, work stoppages or increased labour costs, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations As on the date of this Prospectus, none of our employees are unionised into labour unions. However, any such labour unions may organise work stoppages and strikes which could materially disrupt our operations. We are also subject to several stringent labour laws that protect the interests of workers, including the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, which imposes financial obligations on employers upon retrenchment. While we have not faced any labour unrest in the last three Fiscals, any future 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. 46. We have in the past entered into related party transactions and may continue to do so in the future, which may potentially involve conflicts of interest In the ordinary course of our business, we enter into and will continue to enter into transactions with related parties. While all such transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, we cannot assure you that we might have obtained more favourable terms had such transactions been entered into with unrelated parties. For Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023, the aggregated absolute total of such related party transactions (including intercompany transactions between our Subsidiaries and our Company) have been provided in the table below: Particulars As of March Percentage of As of March Percentage of As of March Percentage of 31, 2025 revenue from 31, 2024 revenue from 31, 2023 revenue from operations as on operations as on operations as on March31, 2025 March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 (₹ in millions) (%) (₹ in millions) (%) (₹ in millions) (%) Related 2,093.01 38.42 1,360.70 27.16 937.03 40.31 party transactions * Aggregate related party transactions as a percentage of revenue from operations of the Company, has been calculated on the basis of absolute value of the transaction and not the net value.” Our Company has availed certain loans from one of our Promoter and Manging Director, Kartik Teltia, while our Company endeavours to repay such loans in a timely manner, however, such loans availed from such related parties may lead to conflict of interest with them. For further details, please see “Our Management - Interest of Directors” and “Promoter and Promoter Group –Interests of Promoter” on pages 241 and 257, respectively. In relation to Danton Power Private Limited, our Company has been outsourcing the activities relating to installation of the equipment for its projects by appointing labour vendors, including Danton Power Private Limited. As a result, the volume of these transactions has grown in tandem with the increasing size and scale of the Company’s projects. This growth is detailed in the related party transaction disclosure in “Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on page 263. While during Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023, our Company has entered into related party transactions on account of the foregoing outsourcing activities, as on the date of RHP, our Company is carrying out the entire project in house and hence has not outsourced any part of the project to Danton Power Private Limited. For Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023, the aggregated absolute total of such related party transactions (including intercompany transactions between our Subsidiaries and our Company) have been provided in the table below: (in ₹ million) 55Name of Related Party Nature of Relationship# For the year For the year For the year Transaction ended ended March ended March 31, 31, 2024 March 31, 2025 2023 Ankita Agro and Food Sale of products Enterprises controlled or -

While the related party transactions undertaken by us are in compliance with Companies Act and other applicable laws and we will conduct all related party transactions post listing of the Equity Shares subject to the Board’s or Shareholders’ approval, as applicable, and in compliance with the applicable accounting standards, provisions of Companies Act, 2013, as amended, provisions of the SEBI Listing Regulations and other applicable law, such related party transactions may potentially involve conflicts of interest. Our Company endeavours to duly address such conflicts of interest as and when they may arise, however, we cannot assure you that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may not involve potential conflict of interest which will not have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Furthermore, 60it is likely that we may enter into related party transactions in the future. Related party transactions in the future may potentially involve conflicts of interest which may be detrimental to our Company. While all such related party transactions will be subject to the approval from our Board and Shareholders, as applicable, and comply with the standards prescribed by SEBI, we cannot assure you that our future related party transactions will not result in an adverse impact on our Company. 47. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon our future results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and working capital and capital expenditure requirements. The declaration and payment of dividends, if any, is recommended by our Board and approved by our Shareholders, at their discretion, subject to the provisions of the Articles of Association and other applicable law, including the Companies Act. Our Company has adopted a formal policy on dividend declaration pursuant to resolutions of board of directors dated September 20, 2024 and February 11, 2025. Our Company has not declared and paid any dividend on the Equity Shares in the three Fiscals preceding the date of this Prospectus, and the period from April 1, 2025 until the date of this Prospectus. For further details in relation to our dividend policy, please see “Dividend Policy” on page 262. There can be no assurance that we will pay any dividend in the future or that any dividend payout will be equal or comparable to any past dividend payout. The amount of future dividend payments by our Company, if any, will depend upon a number of factors, including but not limited to our current and future earnings, capital expenditure requirements, past performance, our Company’s dividend history, resources required to fund acquisitions and/or new businesses, working capital requirements, cost of borrowing, our level of outstanding borrowings, return on capital invested and post dividend earnings per share, additional investments in the Subsidiaries of our Company, restrictive covenants under our existing contractual obligations, the state of the economy and statutory restrictions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to pay dividends in the future. We may decide to retain all of our earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business and, therefore, may not declare dividends on our Equity Shares. Additionally, in the future, we may be restricted by the terms of our financing agreements in making dividend payments unless otherwise agreed with our lenders. For details, see “Dividend Policy” on page 262. 48. We operate in the solar EPC Industry, which is subject to sector-specific threats and challenges. Any inability to manage these external factors could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our business is influenced by regulatory shifts, market competition, and cost pressures, any of which could materially affect our financial performance. Changes in government policies, including reductions in incentives or modifications in energy regulations, could impact the demand for solar EPC projects. However, given India’s COP commitments and renewable energy (RE) push, drastic regulatory shifts appear less likely. While the government has improved enforcement of Renewable Purchase Obligations (RPOs) and strengthened penalties for non-compliance, challenges remain in uniform implementation across states. Additionally, fluctuations in module prices, foreign exchange rates, freight costs, and raw material prices can compress EPC margins, particularly if we are unable to pass on cost increases to project developers. The highly competitive nature of the solar EPC industry, with both established players and new entrants competing for market share, further intensifies pricing pressures and contract risks. Consolidation trends within the industry also create uncertainties around market positioning and long-term profitability. Our operations are subject to execution risks, counterparty credit concerns, and infrastructure-related challenges that can impact project timelines and profitability. The financial health of state distribution companies (Discoms) remains a concern due to high transmission and distribution (T&D) losses, delayed tariff revisions, and subsidy-related constraints, leading to counterparty credit risk. While mechanisms like payment security guarantees and diversification of offtakers help mitigate this risk, delays in receivables could impact our cash flows. Additionally, project execution may be hindered by seasonal disruptions such as monsoon-related site inaccessibility and land acquisition challenges, as securing large, contiguous land parcels involves multiple stakeholders and regulatory approvals. Timely grid connectivity is also critical for RE projects, with concerns over transmission infrastructure adequacy affecting project viability. While government initiatives like the Green Energy Corridor and Renewable Energy Zones aim to address these challenges, any delays or inefficiencies in their implementation could impact our ability to execute projects as planned. If the aforesaid factors materialize for us, they could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. 49. We track certain operational metrics and non-generally accepted accounting principles, measures with internal systems and tools and do not independently verify such metrics. Certain of our operational metrics are subject to inherent challenges in measurement and any real or perceived inaccuracies in such metrics may adversely affect our business and reputation. Certain of our operational metrics, including non-GAAP metrics, such as EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Debt-Equity Ratio, Return on Equity (ROE), Profit After Tax, PAT Margin, Capital Employed, Return on Capital Employed (RoCE), Order Book Value, Net Working Capital and Net Working Capital (days) are prepared with internal systems and tools that are not independently verified by any third party and which may differ from estimates or similar metrics 61published by third parties due to differences in sources, methodologies, or the assumptions on which we rely. For further details, see “Certain Conventions, Use of Financial Information and Market Data and Currency of Presentations – Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 14. Our internal systems and tools have a number of limitations and our methodologies for tracking these metrics may change over time, which could result in unexpected changes to our metrics, including the metrics we publicly disclose. If the internal systems and tools we use to track these metrics under count or over count performance or contain algorithmic or other technical errors, the data we report may not be accurate. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates of our metrics for the applicable period of measurement, there are inherent challenges in measuring how our platform is used across large populations. Limitations or errors with respect to how we measure data or with respect to the data that we measure may affect our understanding of certain details of our business, which could affect our long-term strategies. If our operating metrics are not accurate representations of our business, if investors do not perceive our operating metrics to be accurate or if we discover material inaccuracies with respect to these figures, we expect that our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations would be adversely affected. 50.

Our Promoters, certain of our Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management may have interests in the Company other than the reimbursement of expenses incurred and normal remuneration or benefits, which may have an impact on our business operations. Our Promoters, certain of our Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and members of our Senior Management are interested in our Company, in addition to regular remuneration or benefits and reimbursement of expenses, to the extent of their shareholding in our Company. We cannot assure you that our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and members of our Senior Management will exercise their rights as shareholders to the benefit and best interest of our Company. For further information on the interest of our Promoters, other than reimbursement of expenses incurred or normal remuneration or benefits, please see “Our Management” and “Our Promoters and Promoter Group” on pages 236 and 252, respectively. Furthermore, our Corporate Promoter is interested in certain properties leased by our Company as on the date of this Prospectus. For details in relation to the purchase consideration and lease rentals paid by our Company to our Promoter, please see, “Restated Consolidated Financial Information – Note 38. Related Party Disclosures” “Our Management” and “Our Promoters and Promoter Group” on pages 317, 236 and 252, respectively. 52. Any fraud, theft, or embezzlement by our employees, vendors or contractors could adversely affect our reputation, results of operations and financial condition. Our business is subject to incidents of vendor, contractor, employee fraud, theft or embezzlement. We take reasonable steps to maintain appropriate procedures for compliance and disclosure and to maintain effective internal controls over our financial reporting so that we produce reliable financial reports and prevent financial fraud. Any lapses in judgment or failures that result from human error can affect the accuracy of our financial reporting, resulting in a loss of investor 62confidence and a decline in the price of our Equity Shares. While there have been no such instances of lapses of internal controls, we cannot assure you that this will not occur in the future. Furthermore, our operations are subject to anti-corruption laws and regulations. If we are not in compliance with applicable anti-corruption laws, we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties, which could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Likewise, any investigation of any potential violations of anti-corruption laws by the relevant authorities could also have an adverse impact on our business and reputation. While there have been no instances of any violations of anti-corruption laws in the last three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that there will be no such instances in future. 53. Significant differences exist between Ind AS (“Indian Accounting Standards”) and other accounting principles, such as U.S. GAAP (“Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America”) and IFRS (“International Financial Reporting Standards”), which investors may be more familiar with and may consider material to their assessment of our financial condition. For the purposes of disclosure in this Prospectus, the SEBI ICDR Regulations requires us to prepare and present our Restated Consolidated Financial Information. Our Restated Consolidated Financial Information for the Financial Years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, have been prepared and presented in conformity with Ind AS. Ind AS differs in certain significant respects from IFRS, U.S. GAAP and other accounting principles with which prospective investors may be familiar in other countries. Ind AS differs from accounting principles with which prospective investors may be familiar, such as Indian GAAP, IFRS and U.S GAAP. We have not attempted to quantify the impact of U.S GAAP or IFRS on the financial data included in this Prospectus, nor do we provide a reconciliation of our financial statements to those of U.S GAAP or IFRS. U.S GAAP and IFRS differ in significant respects from Ind AS and Indian GAAP. Accordingly, the degree to which the Ind AS financial statements, which are restated as per the Companies Act, 2013, SEBI ICDR Regulations and the Guidance Note on Reports in Company’s Prospectuses (Revised 2019) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, included in this Prospectus, will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Indian accounting practices. Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in this Prospectus should be limited accordingly. 54. We have issued Equity Shares at prices that may be lower than the Offer Price in the last 12 months. We have issued Equity Shares in the last 12 months at a price which may be lower than the Offer Price, other than the Bonus Issue, as set out in the table below: Date of allotment No. of equity Face value per Offer price per Nature of Reason of shares Allotted Equity Share (₹) Equity Share (₹) consideration allotment November 21, 2024 3,124,548 5 352.05 Cash Preferential allotment The price at which Equity Shares have been allotted by our Company is not indicative of the price at which they will be issued or traded. For further details, please see the section titled “Capital Structure – Equity Share capital history of our Company” on page 87. EXTERNAL RISKS Risks related to India 55. Our financial performance will be affected by developments in or affecting India. Any factors adversely affecting India could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and cash flows. We are incorporated in India, and we conduct our corporate affairs and our business in India. We derive and expect to continue to derive in the foreseeable future, most of our revenues and operating profits from India. Consequently, our business, operations and financial performance may be affected by changes in and other factors affecting India, some of which may be beyond our control. These include changes in investment patterns, budget announcements, policy announcements, political changes, changes in interest rates, inadequate monsoons, health pandemics, terrorist attacks, natural calamities and other acts of violence or war, which may adversely affect worldwide financial and Indian markets, including lowering investors’ confidence in India’s economy. Consequently, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows may be adversely affected. India has, from time to time, experienced instances of civil unrest and terrorist attacks, regional or international hostilities and other acts of violence as well as other adverse social, political and economic events. India has also experienced natural calamities such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods and droughts in the past. If such events occur and lead to overall political and economic instability, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Further, any such events could lead to a shutdown of certain of our 63operations, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Other factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and hence our results of operations may include: • any exchange rate fluctuations, the imposition of currency controls and restrictions on the right to convert or repatriate currency or export assets. • international trade wars or uncertain or unfavourable policies on international trade or (whether or not directly involving the Government of India). • any scarcity of credit or other financing in India, resulting in an adverse effect on economic conditions in India and scarcity of financing for our expansions. • prevailing income conditions among Indian customers and Indian corporations. • the outbreak of epidemic or any other public health crisis in India or in countries in the region or globally, including in India’s various neighbouring countries. • macroeconomic factors and central bank regulations, including in relation to interest rates movements which may in turn adversely impact our access to capital markets and increase our borrowing costs. • volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on India’s principal stock exchanges, that is, on the National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock Exchange. • decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves which may affect liquidity in the Indian economy. • political instability, including terrorism or military conflict in India or in countries in the region or globally, including in India’s various neighbouring countries. • civil unrest, acts of s or situations or war, which may adversely affect the financial markets. • international business practices that may conflict with other customs or legal requirements in India and to which we are subject, including anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws. • logistical and communication challenges. • downgrading of India’s sovereign debt rating. • changes in government policies, including taxation policies, social and civil unrest and other political, social and economic developments in or affecting India. • the occurrence of natural calamities and force majeure events. • fluctuations in commodity and electricity prices; and • a slowdown or recession in the economic growth of other major countries and regions or volatility in international securities markets, especially in the United States, Europe and China. The occurrence of any of the above factors may lead to financial instability and increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and adversely affect the Indian economy and financial sector and us. Negative economic developments, such as rising fiscal or trade deficits, or a default on national debt, in other emerging market countries, may also affect investor confidence and cause increased volatility in Indian securities markets and indirectly affect the Indian economy in general. While recent Indian governments have been focused on encouraging private participation in the industrial sector, any adverse change in policy could result in a slowdown of the Indian economy and the GoI may introduce policy changes in response. In addition, these policies will need continued support from stable regulatory regimes that stimulate and encourage the investment of private capital into industrial development. Additionally, an increase in trade deficit, a downgrading in India’s sovereign debt rating or a decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves could negatively impact interest rates and liquidity, which could adversely impact the Indian economy and our business. Any downturn in the macroeconomic environment in India, or any slowdown or perceived slowdown in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian economy, could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. 6456. We are dependent on the availability and reliability on Indian infrastructure. Any deterioration of India’s infrastructure would harm the national economy, disrupt the transportation of people, goods and supplies, and add costs to doing business in India. India’s physical infrastructure is less developed than that of many developed nations. Any congestion or disruption with respect to communication systems or any public facility, including transportation infrastructure, could disrupt our normal business activity. Any deterioration of India’s physical infrastructure would harm the national economy, disrupt the transportation of people, goods and supplies, and add costs to doing business in India. These disruptions could interrupt our business operations and materially harm our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. 57. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating could have a negative impact on our business and the price of the equity shares. Our borrowing costs and our access to the debt capital markets are affected by the credit ratings of India. India’s sovereign debt rating could be downgraded due to various factors, including changes in tax or fiscal policy or a decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves, which are outside our control. Name of Agency Rating Outlook Date Fitch BBB- Stable May 8, 2023 Moody’s Baa3 Stable April 24, 2024 DBRS BBB (low) Stable May 19, 2023 S&P BBB- Positive May 29, 2024 Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings for domestic and international debt by domestic or international rating agencies may adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing, and the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such additional external financing is available. A downgrading of India’s credit ratings may occur for reasons beyond our control, such as upon a change of government fiscal policy. This could have an adverse effect on our business and future financial performance, ability to obtain financing for capital expenditures and the trading price of the Equity Shares. 58. Compliance with present and changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties may adversely affect our business and financial performance. The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and is subject to change. Such changes, including the instances mentioned below, may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and prospects, to the extent that we are unable to suitably respond to and comply with any such changes in applicable law and policy.. Further, the GoI introduced new laws relating to social security, occupational safety, industrial relations and wages namely, the Code on Social Security, 2020 (“Social Security Code”), the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 and the Code on Wages, 2019, which consolidate, subsume and replace numerous existing central labour legislations, were to take effect from April 1, 2021 (collectively, the “Labour Codes”). The GoI has deferred the effective date of implementation of the respective Labour Codes, and they shall come into force from such dates as may be notified. Different dates may also be appointed for the implementation of different provisions of the Labour Codes. While the rules for implementation under these codes have not been finalized, as an immediate consequence, the coming into force of these codes could increase the financial burden on our Company, which may adversely impact our profitability. For instance, under the Social Security Code, a new concept of deemed remuneration has been introduced, such that where payments made by the employer to the employee exceeds half (or such other percentage as may be notified by the Central Government) of their total remuneration in the form of allowances and other amounts that are not included within the definition of wages under the Social Security Code, the excess amount received shall be deemed as remuneration. Accordingly, such amount shall be added to wages for the purposes of the Social Security Code. Further, any future amendments may affect our tax benefits such as exemptions for income earned by way of dividend from investments in other domestic companies and units of mutual funds, exemptions for interest received in respect of tax-free bonds, and long-term capital gains on equity shares. Changes in capital gains tax or tax on capital market transactions or the sale of shares could affect investor returns. As a result, any such changes or interpretations could have an adverse effect on our business and financial performance. Further, the solar sector enjoys benefits in the form of concessions or the exemption of indirect taxes. Under the present norms, excise duty is exempted for solar projects and there is concession in the rate of custom duty payable for the materials imported for the solar project. Any adverse changes in the present norms or promulgation of new regulations may have a material adverse effect on the exemptions available to us and our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations and cash flows. 65In addition, we may be affected by the adoption or implementation of new safety, health and environmental laws and regulations, new interpretations of existing laws, increased governmental enforcement of existing laws or other similar developments in the future. We could be adversely affected if existing legislations or regulations are expanded or amended to require changes in our business practices, or if such legislations or regulations are interpreted or implemented in ways that negatively affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and prospects. Our Company cannot predict whether any tax laws or other regulations affecting it will be enacted or predict the nature and effect of any such laws or regulations or whether, if at all, any laws or regulations would have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. 59. Natural disasters could have a negative impact on the Indian economy and our business and adversely affect our business and project operations. Natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or famines have in the past had a negative impact on the Indian economy. Potential effects may include damage to infrastructure and the loss of business continuity and business information. If our facilities are affected by any of these events, our operations may be significantly interrupted, which could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. 60. Financial difficulty and other problems relating to financial institutions in India could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. We are exposed to the risks of the Indian financial system which may be affected by the financial difficulties faced by certain Indian financial institutions whose commercial soundness may be closely related as a result of credit, trading, clearing or other relationships. This risk, which is sometimes referred to as a “systemic risk”, may adversely affect financial intermediaries, such as credit rating agencies, banks, security trustees, and stock exchanges with which we interact on a daily basis. Any such difficulties or instability of the Indian financial system in general could create adverse market perceptions about the Indian financial institutions and banks and adversely affect our ability to obtain financing and consequently, our business. In addition, we deal with various financial institutions in our business. Any one of them could be negatively affected by financial difficulty as a result of occurrences over which we have no control. If one or more of our financial institutional counterparties or intermediaries suffers economic difficulty, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. 61. Foreign investment laws in India include certain restrictions, which may affect our fundraising, future acquisitions and investments in India. We are subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign currencies. Such regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources and hence could constrain our ability to obtain financings on competitive terms and refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, we cannot assure you that the required approvals will be granted to us without onerous conditions, or at all. Limitations on raising foreign debt may have an adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Further, India regulates ownership of Indian companies by non-residents, although some restrictions on foreign investment have been relaxed in recent years. For example, under its consolidated foreign direct investment policy, the GoI has set out additional requirements for foreign investments in India, including requirements with respect to downstream investments by Indian companies owned or controlled by non-resident entities, and the transfer of ownership or control from resident Indian persons or entities to non-residents of Indian companies in sectors with limits on foreign investment. Under current Indian regulations, transfers of shares between non-residents and residents are permitted (subject to certain exceptions) if they comply with, among other things, the guidelines specified by the RBI in relation to pricing and valuation of such shares and certain reporting requirements for such transactions specified by the RBI. If the transfer of shares is not in compliance with such pricing guidelines or reporting requirements or falls under any of the exceptions specified by the RBI, the prior approval of the RBI will be required before any such transfer may be consummated. We may not be able to obtain any required approval from the RBI or any other Indian regulatory authority on any particular terms or at all. We cannot assure you that any required approval from the RBI or any other governmental agency can be obtained with or without any particular terms or conditions. Further, pursuant to applicable law, investments where the beneficial owner of the equity shares is situated in or is a citizen of a country which shares a land border with India, can only be made through a prescribed Government approval route. These investment restrictions shall also apply to subscribers of offshore derivative instruments. We cannot assure investors that any required approval from the RBI or any other governmental agency can be obtained on any particular terms or conditions or at all. 62. Financial instability in other countries may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets. 66The Indian market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries, including, but not limited to, the conditions in the United States, Europe and Asia. Financial turmoil or instability and loss of investor confidence in Asia and elsewhere in the world in recent years has adversely affected the Indian economy in the past. Any worldwide financial instability may cause increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and, directly or indirectly, adversely affect the Indian economy and financial sector and its business. Although economic conditions vary across markets, loss of investor confidence in one emerging economy may cause increased volatility across other economies, including India. Financial instability in other parts of the world could have a global influence and thereby adversely impact the Indian economy. Financial disruptions in the future could adversely affect our business, future financial condition and results of operations. The global credit and equity markets have experienced substantial dislocations, liquidity disruptions and market corrections. These developments, and the uncertainty of the economic impact such developments may have may continue to have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and may significantly reduce global market liquidity, restrict the ability of key market participants to operate in certain financial markets or restrict our access to capital. Further, trade tensions between the U.S. and major trading partners, most notably China, continue to escalate following the introduction of a series of tariff measures in both countries. Although China is the primary target of U.S. trade measures, value chain linkages mean that other emerging markets, primarily in Asia, may also be impacted. China’s policy response to these trade measures also presents a degree of uncertainty. In response to such developments, legislators and financial regulators in the United States and other jurisdictions, including India, have implemented a number of policy measures designed to add stability to the financial markets. However, the overall long-term impact of these and other legislative and regulatory efforts on the global financial markets is uncertain, and they may not have had the intended stabilizing effects. Any significant financial disruption could have an adverse effect on our cost of funding, business, and financial performance. The long-term effect on the global economy remains uncertain. However, any reduction in global business activity may adversely affect economies and consumer spending, which may in turn affect our business. 63. If inflation were to rise in India, we might not be able to increase the prices of our services in order to pass costs on to our customers and our profits might decline. Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue in the future. Increasing inflation in India could cause a rise in the price of transportation, wages, raw materials and other expenses, and we may be unable to reduce our costs or pass the increased costs on to our customers by increasing the price that we charge for our services, and our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations may therefore be adversely affected. 64. We may be adversely 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, 2002, as amended (the “Competition Act”), regulates agreements having or likely to have an appreciable adverse effect on competition (“AAEC”) in the relevant market in India. The Competition Act aims to, among others, prohibit all agreements and transactions which may have an AAEC in India. Consequently, all agreements entered into by us could be within the purview of the Competition Act. Further, the CCI has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any agreements, abusive conduct or combination occurring outside India if such agreement, conduct or combination has an AAEC in India. Given that we pursue strategic acquisitions, we may from time to time be affected, directly or indirectly, by the application or interpretation of any provision of the Competition Act, any enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI, any adverse publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI, or any prohibition or substantial penalties levied under the Competition Act, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and prospects. The Government of India has also introduced the Competition (Amendment) Bill, 2022 in the Lok Sabha in August 2022, which has proposed several amendments to the Competition Act, such as 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. As these are draft amendments, we cannot ascertain at this stage as to whether the proposed amendments will come into force in the form suggested or at all, their applicability in respect of our operations, partially or at all once they come into force, or the extent to which the amendments, if and when they come into force, will result in additional costs for compliance, which in turn may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and prospects. 6765. Foreign Investors may have difficulty in enforcing foreign judgments against our Company or our management. Our Company is a limited liability public company incorporated under the laws of India. All of our directors and key managerial personnel named in this Prospectus are residents of India. Further, most of our assets are located in India. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process upon us or to enforce judgments obtained against us. The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in India is governed by Sections 13 and 44A of the Civil Code, which provide that a suit must be brought in India within three years of the date of the judgment sought to be enforced. Generally, there are considerable delays in the disposal of suits by Indian courts. It is unlikely that a court in India would award damages on the same basis as a foreign court if an action were to be brought in India. Furthermore, it is unlikely that an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments if that court was of the view that the number of damages awarded was excessive or inconsistent with Indian practice. A party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain prior approval from the RBI under the FEMA to repatriate any amount recovered, and we cannot assure that such approval will be forthcoming within a reasonable period of time, or at all, or that conditions of such approvals would be acceptable. For further details, see “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities”. Risks related to the Equity Shares and the Offer 66. Our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will continue to exercise significant influence and control over our Company after completion of the Offer. As of the date of this Prospectus, our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group hold 78.70 % of our issued, subscribed and paid-up Equity Share capital. After the completion of the Offer, our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will continue to control our Company and exercise significant influence over our business policies and affairs and all matters requiring shareholders’ approval, including the composition of our Board, the adoption of amendments to our certificate of incorporation, the approval of mergers, strategic acquisitions or joint ventures or the sales of substantially all of our assets, and the policies for dividends, lending, investments and capital expenditures through their shareholding after the Offer. Such concentration of ownership also may 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 such controlling shareholders. In accordance with applicable laws and regulations, our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will have the ability to exercise, directly or indirectly, a significant influence over our business which could conflict with our interests or the interests of its other shareholders. We cannot assure you that our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will act to resolve any conflicts of interest in our favour and any such conflict may adversely affect our ability to execute our business strategy or to operate our business. Accordingly, the interests of our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group in their capacity as our shareholders may conflict with your interests and the interests of our other shareholders. 67. You may be restricted in your ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian law and may be adversely affected by future dilution of your ownership position. Under the Companies Act, 2013 a company having share capital and incorporated in India must offer its holders of equity shares pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of equity shares to maintain their existing ownership percentages before the issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have been waived by adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-fourths of the equity shares voting on such resolution. However, if the laws of the jurisdiction the investors are located in does not permit them to exercise their pre-emptive rights without our filing an offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in such jurisdiction, the investors will be unable to exercise their pre-emptive rights unless we make such a filing. If we elect not to file a registration statement, the new securities may be issued to a custodian, who may sell the securities for the investor’s benefit. The value the custodian receives on the sale of such securities and the related transaction costs cannot be predicted. In addition, to the extent that the investors are unable to exercise pre-emption rights granted in respect of the Equity Shares held by them, their proportional interest in us would be reduced. 68. Our Equity Shares have never been publicly traded, and after the Offer, the price of our Equity Shares may be highly volatile, or an active trading market for our Equity Shares may not develop. The Offer Price may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares after the Offer, and you may be unable to resell your 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. Following the Offer, the Equity Shares are expected to trade on the Stock Exchanges. 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. We cannot assure you that active trading in the Equity Shares will develop after the Offer or, if such trading develops, that it will continue. Investors might not be able to sell the Equity Shares rapidly at the quoted price if there is no active trading in the Equity Shares. 68The 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. However, there has been significant volatility in the Indian stock markets in the recent past, and our Equity Share price could fluctuate significantly because of market volatility. Furthermore, the Offer Price will be based on numerous factors, as described in the section “Basis for Offer Price” on page 116. This price may not necessarily be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares after the Offer is completed. The price of our Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges may fluctuate after the Offer as a result of several factors, including: volatility in the Indian and global securities market; our operations and performance; performance of our competitors; adverse media reports about us or the solar power projects industry generally; changes in the estimates of our performance or recommendations by financial analysts; significant developments in India’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies; and significant developments in India’s fiscal regulations. Any perception by investors that such sales might occur could additionally affect the trading price of our Equity Shares. Consequently, the price of our Equity Shares may be volatile, and you may be unable to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Offer Price, or at all. A decrease in the market price of our Equity Shares could cause investors to lose some or all of their investment. 69. The Offer Price, market capitalization to revenue multiple and enterprise-value-to-EBITDA ratio based on the Offer Price of our Company, may not be indicative of the market price of the Company on listing or thereafter. Our revenue from operations and EBITDA for year ending March 31, 2025 was ₹ 5,447.65 million and ₹ 1,067.47 million and our market capitalization to revenue from operations (as of March 31, 2025) multiple is 5.58 times and our enterprise-value-to-EBITDA ratio (based on restated profit after tax for the period / year) is 29.47 at the upper end of the price band. The Offer Price of the Equity Shares is proposed to be determined on the basis of assessment of market demand for the Equity Shares offered through a book-building process, and certain quantitative and qualitative factors as set out in the section titled “Basis for the Offer Price” on page 116 and the Offer Price, multiples and ratios may not be indicative of the market price of the Company on listing or thereafter. Accordingly, any valuation exercise undertaken for the purposes of the Offer by our Company would not be based on a benchmark with our industry peers. The relevant financial parameters based on which the Price Band would be determined, has been disclosed in the advertisement that was issued for publication of the Price Band. 70. If our Company does not receive the minimum subscription of 90% of the Fresh Issue, the Offer may fail. In the event our Company does not receive (i) a minimum subscription of 90% of the Fresh Issue, and (ii) a subscription in the Offer as specified under Rule 19(2)(b) of the SCRR, including through devolvement of Underwriters, as applicable, within sixty (60) days from the date of Bid Closing Date, or if the subscription level falls below the thresholds mentioned above after the Bid Closing Date, on account of withdrawal of applications or after technical rejections or any other reason, or if the listing or trading permission is not obtained from the Stock Exchanges for the Equity Shares being offered under this Prospectus, our Company shall forthwith refund the entire subscription amount received in accordance with applicable law including the SEBI circular bearing no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2021/2480/1/M dated March 16, 2021 and SEBI master circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/PoD- 1/P/CIR/2024/0154 dated November 11, 2024. If there is a delay beyond four days, our Company and every Director of our Company who is an officer in default, to the extent applicable, shall pay interest as prescribed under applicable law. 71. Investors may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity Shares. Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares held as investments in an Indian company are generally taxable in India. Any capital gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares on a Stock Exchange held for more than 12 months immediately preceding the date of transfer will be subject to long-term capital gains in India at the specified rates depending on certain factors, such as whether the sale is undertaken on or off the Stock Exchanges, the quantum of gains and any available treaty relief. Accordingly, you may be subject to payment of long-term capital gains tax in India, in addition to payment of Securities Transaction Tax (“STT”), on the sale of any Equity Shares held for more than 12 months immediately preceding the date of transfer. STT will be levied on and collected by a domestic stock exchange on which the Equity Shares are sold. Further, any capital gains realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less immediately preceding the date of transfer will be subject to short-term capital gains tax in India. In terms of the Finance Act, 2018, with effect from April 1, 2018, taxes payable by an assessee on the capital gains arising from transfer of long-term capital assets (introduced as Section 112A of the Income-Tax Act, 1961) shall be calculated on such long-term capital gains at the rate of 10%, where the long-term capital gains exceed ₹100,000, subject to certain exceptions in case of resident individuals and Hindu Undivided Families. The 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. 69Under the Finance Act 2020, any dividends paid by an Indian company will be subject to tax in the hands of the shareholders at applicable rates. Such taxes will be withheld by the Indian company paying dividends. The Company may or may not grant the benefit of a tax treaty (where applicable) to a non-resident shareholder for the purposes of deducting tax at source pursuant to any corporate action including dividends. Investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors and to carefully consider the potential tax consequences of owning Equity Shares. We cannot predict whether any amendments made pursuant to the Finance Act, 2024 would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, future cash flows and results of operations. Unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new, laws, rules and regulations including foreign investment and stamp duty laws governing our business and operations could result in us being deemed to be in contravention of such laws and may require us to apply for additional approvals. 72. QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders 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 closure of the Offer. Pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Regulations, QIBs 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. Retail Individual Bidders can revise their Bids during the Bid/Offer Period and withdraw their Bids until closure of the Offer. While we are required to complete Allotment pursuant to the Offer within three Working Days from the Bid/Offer Closing Date or such other period as may be prescribed, events affecting the Bidders’ decision to invest in the Equity Shares, including material adverse changes in international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic conditions, our business, results of operations or financial condition may arise between the date of submission of the Bid and Allotment. We may complete the Allotment of the Equity Shares even if such events occur, and such events limit the Bidders’ ability to sell the Equity Shares Allotted pursuant to the offer or cause the trading price of the Equity Shares to decline on listing. Therefore, QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders would not be able to withdraw or lower their Bids, notwithstanding adverse changes in international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic conditions, our business, results of operations or financial condition, or otherwise, between the dates of the submission of their Bids and the Allotment. 73. Any future issuance of Equity Shares, convertible securities or other equity-linked securities may dilute your shareholding and sales of the Equity Shares by any of our Promoters, members of the Promoter Group or other major shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. We may be required to finance our growth, whether organic or inorganic, through future equity offerings. Any future equity issuances by us, including a primary offering, may lead to the dilution of investors’ shareholdings in us. Any future issuances of Equity Shares, convertible securities or other equity-linked securities, (including through exercise of options under our employee stock option plan) or the disposal of Equity Shares by any of our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group or the perception that such issuance or sales may occur, including to comply with the minimum public shareholding norms applicable to listed companies in India may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares, which may lead to other adverse consequences including difficulty in raising capital through offering of the Equity Shares or incurring additional debt. There can be no assurance that we will not issue further Equity Shares or that our existing shareholders including our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will not dispose of further Equity Shares after the completion of the Offer (subject to compliance with the lock-in provisions under the SEBI ICDR Regulations) or pledge or encumber their Equity Shares. Any future issuances could also dilute the value of a shareholder’s investment in the Equity Shares and adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares. Such securities may also be issued at prices below the Offer Price. We may also issue convertible debt securities to finance our future growth or fund our business activities. In addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur may also affect the market price of our Equity Shares. 74. Rights of shareholders of companies under Indian law may be more limited than under the laws of other jurisdictions. Our Articles of Association, composition of our Board, Indian laws governing our corporate affairs, the validity of corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties, responsibilities and liabilities, and shareholders’ rights may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction. Shareholders’ rights under Indian law may not be as extensive and widespread as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may face challenges in asserting their rights as shareholder in an Indian company than as a shareholder of an entity in another jurisdiction. 7075. Subsequent to listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to pre-emptive surveillance measures like Additional Surveillance Measures and Graded Surveillance Measures by the Stock Exchanges in order to enhance market integrity and safeguard the interest of investors. SEBI and the Stock Exchanges, in the past, have introduced various pre-emptive surveillance measures with respect to the shares of listed companies in India (the “Listed Securities”) in order to enhance market integrity, safeguard the interests of investors and potential market abuses. In addition to various surveillance measures already implemented, and in order to further safeguard the interest of investors, the SEBI and the Stock Exchanges have introduced additional surveillance measures (“ASM”) and graded surveillance measures (“GSM”). ASM is conducted by the Stock Exchanges on Listed Securities with surveillance concerns based on certain objective parameters such as price-to-earnings ratio, percentage of delivery, client concentration, variation in volume of shares and volatility of shares, among other things. GSM is conducted by the Stock Exchanges on Listed Securities where their price quoted on the Stock Exchanges is not commensurate with, among other things, the financial performance and financial condition measures such as earnings, book value, fixed assets, net worth, other measures such as price- to-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, and low trading volumes and a large concentration of client 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 the 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 the market price, trading and liquidity of our Equity Shares and on the reputation and conditions of our Company. 76. You will not be able to sell immediately on an Indian stock exchange any of the Equity Shares you purchase in the Offer. The Equity Shares are proposed to be listed on the NSE and BSE. Pursuant to the applicable Indian laws, certain actions must be completed before the Equity Shares can be listed and before trading in the Equity Shares may commence. Investors can begin trading the Equity Shares Allotted to them only after they have been credited to an investors’ ‘demat’ account, become listed and are permitted to trade. Investors will be subject to market risk from the date they pay for the Equity Shares to the date when Equity Shares Allotted are listed and permitted to trade. 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 Offer and the credit of such Equity Shares to the successful Bidder’s demat account with depository participant could take approximately two Working Days from the Bid 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 Closing Date. There can be no assurance that the Equity Shares Allotted to a successful Bidder will be credited to such investor’s demat account in a timely manner or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence in a timely manner. 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. 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. 71SECTION IV – INTRODUCTION THE OFFER The following table summarizes details of the Offer: Offer of Equity Shares (1) ^ 13,960,113* Equity Shares, aggregating to ₹ 4,900.00 million* of which: Fresh Issue (1) 12,535,612* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each, aggregating to ₹ 4,400.00 million* Offer for Sale(2) 1,424,501* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each, aggregating to ₹ 500.00 million* The Offer comprises of: A) QIB Portion(3)(4)(5) 10,470,086* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each, aggregating to ₹ 3,675.00 million* of which: (i) Anchor Investor Portion 6,282,051* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each (ii) Net QIB Portion (assuming Anchor Investor Portion is fully 4,188,035* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each subscribed) of which: (a) Available for allocation to Mutual Funds only (5% of the Net QIB 209,402* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each Portion) (b) Balance for all QIBs including Mutual Funds 3,978,633* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each B) Non-Institutional Portion(4)(5) 2,094,016* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each, aggregating to ₹ 735.00 million* C) Retail Portion(4)(5) 1,396,011* Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each, aggregating to ₹ 490.00 million* Pre- and post-Offer Equity Shares Equity Shares outstanding prior to the Offer (as at the date of this 74,137,042 Equity Shares of face value of ₹ 5 each Prospectus) Equity Shares outstanding after the Offer 86,672,654* Use of Net Proceeds and the Pre-IPO Proceeds See “Objects of the Offer-Fresh Issue” on page 102 for information about the use of Net Proceeds and Pre-IPO Proceeds.

(3) Our Company has, in consultation with the BRLMs, allocated up to 60% of the QIB Portion to Anchor Investors on a discretionary basis. The QIB Portion was accordingly reduced for the Equity Shares allocated to Anchor Investors. One-third of the Anchor Investor Portion was reserved for domestic Mutual Funds only, subject to valid Bids having been received from domestic Mutual Funds at or above the Anchor Investor Allocation Price. In the event of under-subscription in the Anchor Investor Portion, the remaining Equity Shares shall be added to the Net QIB Portion. 5% of the Net QIB Portion shall be made available for allocation on a proportionate basis to Mutual Funds only, and the remainder of the Net QIB Portion shall be made available for allocation on a proportionate basis to all QIB Bidders, including Mutual Funds, subject to valid Bids having been received at or above the Offer Price. In the event the aggregate demand from Mutual Funds is less than as specified above, the balance Equity Shares available for Allotment in the Mutual Fund Portion will be added to the Net QIB Portion and allocated proportionately to the QIB Bidders in proportion to their Bids. For details, see “Offer Procedure” on page 429. (4) Under-subscription, if any, in the QIB Portion would not be allowed to be met with spill-over from other categories or a combination of categories. Subject to valid Bids having been received at or above the Offer Price, under-subscription, if any, in any category except the QIB Portion, would be allowed to be met with spill-over from any other category or combination of categories, as applicable, at the discretion of our Company in consultation with the BRLMs and the Designated Stock Exchange. (5) Allotment to Bidders in all categories, except Anchor Investors, if any, Non-Institutional Investors and Retail Individual Investors, shall be made in accordance with SEBI ICDR Regulations. The allotment to each Non-Institutional Investor shall not be less than ₹ 0.2 million, subject to the availability of Equity Shares in Non-Institutional Investors’ category, and the remaining Equity Shares, if any, shall be allotted on a proportionate basis.

These possible special tax benefits are dependent on the Company fulfilling the conditions prescribed under the Indian Income Tax Law. Hence, the ability of the Company to derive the possible special tax benefits is dependent upon fulfilling such conditions, which are based on business imperatives it faces in the future, it may or may not choose to fulfil. 1. Lower corporate tax rate under Section 115BAA of the Act: A new section 115BAA has been inserted in the Act by the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act, 2019 (“the Amendment Act, 2019”) w.e.f. from FY 2019-20 relevant to AY 2020-21. Section 115BAA grants an option to a domestic company to be governed by the section from a particular assessment year. If a company opts for section 115BAA of the Act, it can pay corporate tax at a reduced rate of 25.168% (22% plus surcharge of 10% and education cess of 4%) and the option once exercised shall apply to subsequent assessment years. In such a case, the Company may not be allowed to claim any of the following deductions/exemptions: (i) Deduction under the provisions of section 10AA (deduction for units in Special Economic Zone) (ii) Deduction under clause (iia) of sub-section (1) of section 32 (Additional Depreciation) (iii) Deduction under section 32AD or section 33AB or section 33ABA (Investment Allowance in backward areas, Investment Deposit Account, Site Restoration Fund) (iv) Deduction under sub-clause (ii) or sub-clause (ii)(a) or sub-clause (iii) of sub-section (1) or sub-section (2AA) or sub-section (2AB) of section 35 (Expenditure on Scientific Research) (v) Deduction under section 35AD or section 35CCC (deduction for specified business, agricultural extension project) (vi) Deduction under section 35CCD (expenditure on skill development) (vii) Deduction under any provisions of Chapter VI-A other than the provisions of section 80JJAA or Section 80M (viii) No set off of any loss carried forward or depreciation from any earlier assessment year, if such loss or depreciation is attributable to any of the deductions referred from clause (i) to (vii) above, (ix) No set off of any loss or allowance for unabsorbed depreciation deemed so under section 72A, if such loss or depreciation is attributable to any of the deductions referred from clause (i) to (vii) above. Further, it was clarified by CBDT vide Circular No. 29/ 2019 dated 2 October 2019 that if the Company opts for concessional income tax rate under section 115BAA, the provisions of section 115JB regarding Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) are not applicable. Further, such Company will not be entitled to claim tax credit relating to MAT. The Company has opted for the concessional rate of tax for the first time in the return of income filed for FY 2019-20 for which declaration in specified form (i.e., Form 10-IC) has been filed with the Income Tax Authority. 2. Deduction in respect of certain inter-corporate dividends under Section 80M As per Section 80M of the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961, where domestic companies have declared dividend and are also in receipt of the dividend from another domestic company or a foreign company or a business trust, deduction is allowed with respect to the dividend received as long as the same is distributed as dividend one month prior to the due date of furnishing the return of income under sub-section (1) of Section 139. The deduction under Section 80M is available even if domestic company opts for concessional tax rate under Section 115BAA. 1273. Deduction in respect of employment of new employees under section 80JJAA The Company is entitled to claim a deduction of an amount equal to thirty per cent of additional employee cost incurred in the course of business in the previous year, for three assessment years including the assessment year relevant to the previous year in which such employment is provided under section 80JJAA of the Act, subject to the fulfilment of prescribed conditions therein. B. POSSIBLE SPECIAL TAX BENEFITS AVAILABLE TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY UNDER ACT There is no special direct tax benefit available to the shareholders of the Company for investing in the shares of the Company.

Macroeconomic overview 1.1 Economic indicators India’s gross domestic product (GDP) at constant (fiscal 2012) prices was Rs. 187.97 trillion (provisional estimates) for fiscal 2025 vis-à-vis Rs. 176.5 trillion (fiarst revised estimates) for fiscal 2024 as per data released by the National Statistical Office (NSO) in May 2025. This translates into a growth of 6.5% over fiscal 2024. India is projected to become the fourth largest economy in the world in fiscal 2026, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF)’s World Economic Outlook (WEO April 2025). As per IMF GDP Forecasts (July 2025), India’s real GDP growth is estimated at 6.4% in fiscal 2026 and 2027, the highest amongst the top 10 economies. IMF has estimated that India will be the world's third-largest economy by fiscal 2028 surpassing both Japan and Germany. Additionally, World Bank has estimated India’s GDP to grow at 6.3% in fiscal 2026. In the last 5 years, Indian GDP has been growing consistently. Except for years affected by COVID-19 pandemic, India’s growth has been highest amongst the top 10 economies. Figure 1: Comparison of India’s economy with other major nations 130*India Financial Year, As per NSO data released in May 2025 for fiscal 2024, Source: World Economic Outlook Database (April and July 2025) by IMF; IEA, CEA, Crisil Intelligence India’s GDP has been growing consistently. In the last 10 years, except for years affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, India’s growth has been highest amongst the top 10 economies. With the receding risk of global recession, India has been identified as an economic growth center by various International Agencies as well as global rating firms. In July 2025, IMF released World Economic Outlook. As per IMF, global growth is expected to decelerate, with apparent resilience due to trade-related distortions waning. At 3.0% in 2025 and 3.1% in 2026, the forecasts are below the 2024 outcome of 3.3% and the pre-pandemic historical average of 3.7%, even though they are higher than the April 2025 forecast by IMF. In India, growth is projected to be 6.4% in 2025 and 2026, with both numbers revised slightly upward, reflecting a more benign external environment than assumed in the April reference forecast.

Similarly, the energy requirement grew at 4.7% CAGR over fiscals 2015 to 2025 i.e., from 1,069 BUs to 1,694 BUs. As seen in Figure 1, despite this healthy increase, the per-capita electricity consumption remains significantly lower than other major economies. Developing countries, such as Brazil and China, have significantly higher per-capita electricity consumption than India. Between fiscals 2024 and 2030, India’s per capita electricity consumption is expected to grow at ~2.3-2.9% CAGR. Per capita consumption is expected to gradually improve in the long term as well, as power demand picks up on the back of improvement in access to electricity, in terms of quality and reliability, rising per capital income, increasing EV penetration, railway electrification, on account of intensive rural electrification, resulting in realisation of latent demand from the residential segment, increased penetration of consumer durables. However, there are a few factors which could restrict the growth such as improved energy efficiency, focus on T&D loss reduction, sustainability targets and increasing share of services in GDP. Consequently, Crisil Intelligence expects per capita electricity consumption to reach 1,600-1,650 kWh by fiscal 2030. 131Figure 2: Per capita electricity consumption (in kWh) E: Estimated; F: Forecast Source: Central Electricity Authority of India (CEA), Crisil Intelligence 1.2.2 Urbanization Urbanization is one of the big growth drivers, as it leads to rapid infrastructure development, job creation, development of modern consumer services, and mobilisation of savings. The share of the urban population in India in overall population, which stood at ~31% in 2011, has been consistently rising over the years, and is expected to reach 40% by 2030, spurring increasing consumer demand. Indeed, urban consumption in India has shown signs of improvement and given India’s favourable demographics, along with rising disposable income, the trend is likely to continue and drive the country’s economic growth.

Overview of Power sector in India 2.1 Review of power demand supply scenario India witnessed robust growth in capacity addition over the past decade, led by delicensing of the power-generation business through the Electricity Act, 2003, followed by strong government thrust on RE through favourable policies and regulations. 1322.1.1 Review of installed capacity and fuel mix The total installed generation capacity as of July 2025 was ~490 GW, of which ~147 GW of capacity was added over fiscal 2018 to 2026 (July 2025). The overall installed generation capacity has grown at a CAGR of 5.04% over the same period. Figure 4: India Annual capacity additions and installed capacity (GW) *FY26 capacity as of July 2025; Source: CEA, Crisil Intelligence Coal and lignite-based installed power generation capacity has maintained its dominant position over the years and accounts for ~46% as of July 2025. However, RE installations (including large hydroelectric projects), have reached ~237 GW capacity as of July 2025, compared with 114 GW as of March 2018, constituting about 48% of total installed generation capacity. This growth has been led by solar power, which rapidly rose to ~119 GW from 22 GW over the same period. Figure 5: Breakup of country’s installed capacity (GW) Source: CEA, Crisil Intelligence 2.1.2 Historical trend in power demand and energy requirement India's electricity requirement has risen at a CAGR of ~4.8% between fiscals 2018 and 2025, while power availability rose at ~4.9% CAGR on the back of strong capacity additions, both in the generation and transmission segments. As a result, the energy deficit declined to 0.3% in fiscal 2024 from 0.7% in fiscal 2018 and further declined to 0.1% in fiscal 2025 and 0.03% in fiscal 2026 (till July 2025). Also, strengthening of inter-regional power transmission capacity over the past five years has further supported the fall in deficit levels as it reduced supply constraints on account of congestion and lower transmission corridor availability. 133Figure 6: Aggregate power demand supply *FY26 capacity as of July 2025; Source: CEA, Crisil Intelligence Peak electricity demand in India has grown from 164 GW in fiscal 2018 to 250 GW in fiscal 2025 clocking an average growth rate of 6.2% in the same period and in fiscal 2026 (till July 2025) the peak electricity demand has touched 243 GW. Prior to the pandemic, electricity demand in India usually peaked in August-September, mostly covering the monsoon season. This spike in peak demand was primarily due to an increase in domestic and commercial load, mainly space cooling load due to high humidity conditions. However, during post pandemic years, annual peak demand occurred in the summer season (April-July), due to extreme heatwave conditions. Peak demand touched record high levels of 243 GW in fiscal 2024 during September, attributed to an increase in cooling demand as intense summers scorched several regions of the country. During fiscal 2023, the generation has struggled to keep up with the rise in demand, resulting in an increase in peak deficit to 4.2% as compared with 1.2% for the same period in fiscal 2022. However, during fiscal 2024, the peak deficit reduced to 1.4% with a deficit of only 3 GW with jump in supply and further in fiscal 2025 and 2026 (till July 2025) the deficit has been recorded at 0.04% and 0.03%. Figure 7: Peak power demand and supply position *FY26 capacity as of July 2025; Source: CEA, Crisil Intelligence 1342.2 Power demand supply outlook 2.2.1 Long term Demand drivers and constraints Power demand is closely associated with a country’s GDP. Healthy economic growth leads to growth in power demand. India is already the fastest-growing economy in the world, with average GDP growth of 5.5% over the past decade. The trickle-down effect of government spending on infrastructure through the National Infrastructure Pipeline, expansion of the services industry, rapid urbanisation, and increased farm income from agriculture-related reforms are key macroeconomic factors that are expected to foster power demand. Significant policy initiatives such as 24x7 power for all, Sahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana (SAUBHAGYA) scheme to provide electricity connections to all households, green energy corridor to facilitate evacuation of RE power, green city scheme to promote the development of sustainable and eco-friendly cities, PLI scheme and low corporate tax rates among others are expected to further support power demand in the country. Figure 8: Factors influencing power demand Source: Crisil Intelligence Apart from macroeconomic factors, power demand would be further fueled by railway electrification, upcoming metro rail projects, growing demand for charging infrastructure due to increased adoption of electric vehicles, and higher demand from key infrastructure and manufacturing sectors. However, increasing energy efficiency, a reduction in technical losses over the longer term, and captive as well as off-grid generation from renewables would restrict growth in power demand. 2.2.2 Outlook on energy requirement and availability Despite the high base of preceding three years, Crisil Intelligence expects power demand to grow by 5.5-6.0% in the next five years which will be supported by infrastructure-linked capex, strong economic fundamentals along with expansion of the power footprint via strengthening of T&D infrastructure, coupled with major reforms initiated by the Go I for improving the overall health of the power sector, particularly that of state distribution utilities, are expected to improve the quality of power supply, thereby propelling power demand. 135Figure 9: Energy demand outlook (fiscals 2026-30) P: Projected, Source: CEA, Crisil Intelligence Peak demand is expected to grow at an annual average of 5-6% over fiscal 2024-30 to reach nearly 335 GW by fiscal 2030 with an expected persistent high temperatures, rising urbanization, economic growth and infrastructure push leading to higher power consumption. Figure 10: Peak demand to increase by 85 GW between fiscals 2025 and 2030 to cross 300 GW P: Projected, Source: CEA, Crisil Intelligence 2.2.3 Capacity addition outlook As per CEA India’s installed power capacity is expected to reach 609.6 GW by fiscal 2027 and increase to 900 GW by fiscal 2032, from its current capacity of ~490 GW in July 2025. However, as per Crisil Intelligence estimates, the capacity additions in the conventional power generation segment are projected to be around 32-35 GW cumulatively from fiscals 2026 to 2030, driven by higher than decadal average power demand. Fresh project announcements are limited as players are opting for the inorganic route for expansion given the availability of assets at reasonable valuations, with 3.6 GW of stressed power assets are awaiting debt resolution. However, the need for generation capacity equipped for flexible operations to ramp up-down quickly is critical to meet peak demand as generation from renewable capacities is intermittent in nature. Crisil expects 28-30 GW of coal-based power to be commissioned over fiscals 2026-30. Coal capacity additions are expected to be driven entirely by the central and state sectors, as major private gencos continue to focus on expanding RE capacity. 2-3 GW of coal-based capacity is expected to retire as per CEA’s National Electricity Plan 2023. Nuclear power capacity additions of 6-7 GW are expected during the period as ongoing projects at Kakrapara, Kalpakkam, and Rajasthan are nearing completion. Nine reactors with a total capacity of 7.3 GW are under construction which are expected to be commissioned by 2030. 136Crisil expects 6-7 GW of hydro power installations and 32-35 GW of energy storage solutions including 8.5-9.5 GW pumped hydro storage projects (PSP) capacity additions and 23-24 GW of Battery Energy storage system (BESS) over fiscals 2026- 2030. By fiscal 2030, RE capacity (excl. large hydro) of over 180-190 GW is expected to be driven by various government initiatives, favourable policies, competitive tariffs, innovative tenders, development of solar parks and green energy corridors, etc. RE capacity is estimated to account for about 50% of the installed capacity of 700-710 GW by fiscal 2030. RE is expected to account for over 80% of the additional capacity between fiscal 2026 and 2030. Figure 11: All India installed estimated capacity addition by fiscal 2030 (in GW) RE includes solar, wind, small hydro, and other renewable sources *FY26 capacity as of July 2025; Source: CEA, Crisil Intelligence 2.2.4 Investments in generation, transmission, and distribution infrastructure The total investment in the power sector between fiscals 2019-25 was about Rs. 20.2 trillion. Crisil Intelligence expects investments of Rs 29.0-30.0 trillion in the power sector over fiscals 2026-30 at a CAGR of 7.5-8.2%. Generation segment investments are being driven by capacity additions with robust growth in RE installations, followed by distribution investments led by the RDSS scheme. Figure 12: Segment-wise break-up of total investments (Rs. trillion, % share of total) Source: Crisil Intelligence Investments in the generation segment are expected to be 1.7x from Rs ~11.6 trillion to ~Rs 19.0-21.0 trillion over fiscals 2026- 30. Capacity addition from RE sources is expected to be 180-190 GW from fiscal 2026 to 2030, and 2530 GW from coal-based plant sources over the same period. Investments in RE capacity, which are expected to double over the next five years, in line with capacity additions, will constitute over 70% of overall generation investments. To achieve the RE generation target, a strong transmission infrastructure is needed to integrate large scale RE capacities into the grid. This is expected to lead to transmission investments of Rs 4.5-5.5 trillion between fiscals 2026-2030 from ~Rs 3.2 trillion between fiscals 2019-2025 led by upcoming ISTS projects. The distribution segment is expected to attract investments worth Rs 3.5-4.5 trillion over fiscals 2026 to 2030 vis-vis ~Rs 5.4 trillion between fiscals 2019-2024. This is driven by the government's thrust on the RDSS scheme, entailing an outlay of Rs 1373.04 trillion for state discoms, to be allocated until fiscal 2026. Rs 2.52 trillion worth of DPRs have been sanctioned by nodal agencies (PFC and REC) as of December 2023. 2.3 Overview of the sector’s key challenges and risk factors Low power offtake by discoms and credit risk Despite significant availability of power, offtake by discoms in various Indian states is low on account of their weak financial position. In fact, some discoms opt for load shedding instead of buying power as they face revenue underrecovery (a gap between ACS and ARR). The national average of under-recovery was Rs 1.00 per kWh in June 2025 (as per UDAY portal). Also, counterparty credit risk arising from the weak financials of discoms is an underlying risk as reflected in high receivables of gencos. Financial health of generators Private sector coal-based plants without long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) are stranded due to low offtake and underutilization, with an average PLF of ~57% over the past five years. . Although the PLF has improved to 69.5% in Fiscal 2025, driven by increased energy demand. Their financial position has deteriorated, with declining sales, reduced net margins and a rise in the gearing ratio. With their financial health remaining weak despite the implementation of UDAY, discoms are not expected to sign fresh long-term PPAs over the medium term owing to excess tie-ups in the past. Thus, the debt servicing ability of private players is expected to remain weak and affect projects that are operational and under construction. Fuel availability For thermal plants, which form 80% of installed capacity of conventional energy, fuel accounts for a large proportion of operating costs at 75-80%. Over fiscals 2011-14, domestic coal availability was a major issue as total non-coking coal production grew a mere 1.7% owing to stringent environmental regulations. This partly contributed to a decline in PLFs from ~75% in fiscal 2011 to ~69.5% in fiscal 2025. Also, players were compelled to rely more on expensive imported coal which adversely impacted returns of players. Despite increasing coal production, insufficient rake availability led to inadequate coal dispatches to plants, who were reeling under increased power demand. However, going forward, coal-based plants will be increasingly utilised for flexible operations to service rising peak demand, particularly those plants commissioned over the past decade and those in the commissioning pipeline. On the gas front too, there are challenges. Availability of domestic gas reduced sharply after production from Reliance Industries’ KG-D6 field plummeted. Over the years, government support for gas-based generation in terms of gas supply assurance has dwindled, thereby leaving gas-based plants, which typically operate on domestic gas, short on fuel supply. The same is reflected in PLFs of gas-based plants remaining stagnant between 14-16% over the last five years. Timely execution of projects Power projects are highly capital intensive and have a long gestation period. Therefore, completion of projects in a time bound manner is very critical for developers to avoid huge time and cost overruns. In the past, thermal power projects witnessed significant cost overruns on account of delays in getting clearances, land acquisition and achieving financial closure. In fact, certain projects saw cost overruns as high as ~70% resulting in total project expenditure escalating to Rs 75 million per MW from an initial estimate of Rs 45 million per MW. Hydro power projects have also been crippled due to execution challenges. Securing necessary approvals (environmental and forest clearances); land acquisition; relocation of project-affected people; inadequate infrastructure for power evacuation; and other logistical issues have constantly hampered the pace of project execution in the sector. Moreover, any delays in commissioning of projects further raises the cost of the project. This, in turn, escalates the power tariff, thereby increasing the power purchase cost of discoms, making them reluctant to buy electricity from such projects. Changes in emission norms Coal-based plants need to adhere to emission norms prescribed by the Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change (MOEF&CC). There is additional capital expenditure associated with the equipment to be installed for keeping emissions below prescribed levels. Thus, any revision in such norms has a cost impact on the generators. In December 2015, the government notified the revised standards for coal-based thermal power plants in the country, aimed at minimizing pollution and limiting water usage. E.g., upgrade of electrostatic precipitators (ESP); installation of FGD plants and modification of combustion systems; and upgrade of cooling towers to reduce specific water consumption would escalate the capital cost of coal-based plants by Rs 1.5-2.0 million per MW, that too if adequate land is available for expansion. If land is not available, the cost could rise further. Although capital expenditure incurred towards these modifications can be passed on to discoms, it requires approval from the respective regulatory commission and the PPA clause should also allow it. 138Regulatory and policy issues After the cancellation of coal block allocation in September 2014, a number of plants were stalled due to lack of fuel. Although the latest coal linkage policy notified in May 2017 – SHAKTI – aims to resolve this bottleneck, it has added a clause for providing discounts on existing PPA tariffs which would hurt project returns. Also, denial of compensatory tariff on account of international price changes, cancellation of PPA bids by Uttar Pradesh, backing down of wind and solar generation despite their ‘must-run’ status, and re-negotiation of PPAs are some of the key risks affecting the generation sector. 3. Overview of Renewable Energy sector in India 3.1 Overview of Global RE As per IEA, in 2023, global annual renewable capacity additions increased more than 60% to almost 565 GW, the fastest growth ever recorded. Continuous policy support in more than 130 countries and declining costs, especially for solar PV, led to this key change in the global trend. China accounting on its own for two thirds of global annual additions. In 2023, the country’s solar PV additions grew 2.5 times and wind installations more than doubled. The increases in renewable capacity additions in Europe (+28%; primarily in Germany, Spain and France), the United States (+42%), Brazil (+29%) and South Africa (+33%) hit all-time highs. As per the IEA Renewables 2024, considering existing policies and market conditions, under main case 5,500 GW of new renewable capacity is expected to become operational by 2030. This implies that global renewable capacity additions will continue to increase every year, reaching almost 940 GW annually by 2030 – 70% more than the record level achieved last year. Solar PV and wind together account for 95% of all renewable capacity growth through the end of this decade due their growing economic attractiveness in almost all countries. Figure 13: Global annual renewable energy capacity additions Source: IEA Renewable Energy 2024, IEA, Crisil Intelligence 3.2 Government of India initiatives for RE growth The Indian Government has undertaken multiple policy initiatives through various new and innovative schemes to boost renewable energy generation in the country.

SECI, NTPC, NHPC & SJVN have been designated as REIAs. Bids for 50 GW per annum RE capacity, with at least 10 GW per annum Wind power capacity, are to be issued each year from 2023-24 to 2027-28. • Waiver of Inter State Transmission System (ISTS) charges for inter-state sale of solar and wind power for projects to be commissioned by 30th June 2025 • Declaration of trajectory for Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) up to the year 2030 • The government has issued orders that power should be dispatched against Letter of Credit (LC) or advance payment to ensure timely payment by distribution licensees to RE generators. • Notification of Promoting Renewable Energy through Green Energy Open Access Rules 2022. • Notification of “The electricity (Late Payment Surcharge and related matters) Rules 2022 (LPS rules). • Launch of Green Term Ahead Market to facilitate sale of renewable energy power through exchanges. 3.3 Overview of RE capacity additions Renewable energy installations (incl. large hydro) have increased around fourfold to ~237 GW as of July 2025, as compared with ~63 GW as of March 2012, led by various central and state-level incentives. As of July 2025, installed grid connected RE generation capacity (incl. large hydro) in India constituted ~48% of the total installed generation base in India. This growth has been led by solar power, which has grown to ~119 GW from merely ~0.9 GW over the discussed time period (i.e., from March 2012). Figure 14: India’s RE (incl. large hydro) capacity was 48% at the end of July 2025 Conventional: Coal, Gas, Lignite, and Nuclear Source: MNRE; CEA, Crisil Intelligence However, owing to lower capacity utilisation factors, the RE penetration (incl. large hydro) in terms of energy generation was at ~25% for fiscal 2025 as of June 2025. 141Figure 15: India’s RE (incl. large hydro) penetration was about 25% at end of June 2025 At CEA RE Generation data lags compared to installed capacity data. Conventional: Coal, Gas, Lignite and Nuclear Source: MNRE; CEA, Crisil Intelligence With the increased support of the Government and improved economics, the RE sector has become attractive from an investor’s perspective. During last 6-7 years, India added around 100 GW of RE (incl. large hydro) capacities. The installed RE (incl. large hydro) capacity has grown from 114 GW in fiscal 2018 to 215 GW in February 2025 at a CAGR of 9.4%. Solar segment led the capacity additions with cumulative additions of ~81 GW followed by wind ~15 GW. The other RE sources added ~5 GW. Figure 16: Historical RE Capacity additions in India *As of July 2025, Source: CEA, MNRE, Crisil Intelligence 3.4 RE Capacity additions in India compared to major economies Globally, India ranks fourth in total RE, wind as well as solar installations. India has become the second largest RE market in the Asia Pacific region after China. As per IEA RE 2024, China is estimated to add ~418 GW of RE capacity followed by USA with ~47 GW of RE capacity. During the same period, Germany and Brazil is estimated to add around ~19 GW of RE capacity. As per MNRE India added ~30 GW during the fiscal 2025. Thus, as against the 63% of the global RE capacity added by China, India added around ~4.5% during the fiscal 2024. 142Figure 17: China leading global RE capacity additions *India FY, Rest CY; Source: MNRE, IRENA, Crisil Intelligence 4. Overview of Solar Energy sector in India 4.1 Overview of Global solar sector The global energy crisis is driving renewable installations worldwide, with total capacity growth set to almost double in the next five years, overtaking coal as the largest source of electricity generation. Some of the key drivers for this shift are reducing RE generation costs, favourable policies, improved emphasis on energy security and access, and socio-economic benefits. The last decade saw a remarkable evolution in solar PV industries, including higher installations, signification reductions in tariffs, and technological advancements. Concerns over climate change are at the heart of the energy shift towards RE and its increasing utilisation will be key for decarbonisation. Various initiatives, such as Kyoto Protocol, Paris agreement, Conference of Paris (COP) 21, COP26, RE 100, ISA, and subsequent favourable policy interventions, have helped strengthen the RE segment. The transition towards RE is a critical part of meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit the rise in global average temperatures to well below 2 degrees Celsius and ideally below 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels. Countries that are part of the Paris Agreement are required submit their plans for climate action, known as nationally determined contributions (NDCs). These NDCs represent the efforts these countries need to take in order to reduce national emissions. Various countries have provided policy impetus to the solar PV industry through various mechanisms, such as FiT, ‘must run’ statuses, renewable purchase obligations, tax incentives, AD, regulatory frameworks, subsidies, and PLIs. This has accelerated global growth in solar PVs. Investments in solar PV will likely increase as it is rapidly becoming the preferred and lowest-cost option for electricity generation globally. Generation should grow by an average 25% between 2022-2030 to meet the Net Zero Emissions Scenario by 2050. This translates into over 3x increase in annual capacity deployment until 2030. Globally, ~498 GW of solar PV capacity is estimated to be added in 2024, taking the installed capacity to 2,117 GW, which is a ~31% increase over the previous year. China continued to lead the market with total estimated cumulative capacity of ~1,009 GW, whereas the US came in second with ~210 GW, followed by India at ~123 GW. 143Figure 18: Annual solar capacity additions in major economies Note: The annual capacity addition numbers pertain to calendar year (January-December) Source: IEA Renewables 2024, Crisil Intelligence Continuous innovation and economies of scale have helped drop in Module prices. With significant fall in module prices, solar PV became one of the most preferred electricity generation technology leading to substantial capacity additions.

The IEA predicts that the global cumulative solar PV capacity would triple by 2028, surpassing natural gas by 2026 and coal by 2027. Although the current commodity super-cycle may have pushed investment costs up, utility-scale solar PV continues to be the most cost-efficient option for most countries. Emerging solar technologies, such as distributed solar PV and rooftop solar, are also set for rapid growth due to higher retail electricity prices and growing policy support to help consumers save on their energy bills. Figure 20: Projected growth in global installed capacity base in solar PV over CY24-30 E: Estimated; P: Projected Source: IEA Renewables 2024, Crisil Intelligence 4.2 Assessments on Solar capacity additions in India In the renewable energy basket (including large hydro) as of July 2024, solar energy accounted for a share of ~50.2%. Growth in the solar power sector over the last six years has been robust. As much as ~97 GW capacity has been added in the segment over fiscals 2018-26 (till July 2025), registering a CAGR of ~26%, although on a low base. Despite the second wave of COVID- 19 pandemic, fiscal 2022 witnessed solar capacity additions of ~14 GW. In a relief to developers, the MNRE provided total extension of seven-and-a-half months for the projects affected by the first and second waves of pandemic. This is estimated to have delayed commissioning in fiscal 2022, leading to a spillover into fiscals 2023 and 2024. In fiscal 2023, solar capacity additions stood at ~13 GW, with ~2.2 GW coming from rooftop solar projects. Similarly, in fiscal 2024, solar capacity additions stood at ~15 GW, with ~3 GW coming from grid connected rooftop solar projects. In fiscal 2025, ~24 GW solar capacity was added in India and in 4 months of fiscal 2026 (till July 2025) ~13 GW has been added. Figure 21: Trend in cumulative solar capacity installation in India *As of July 2025, Source: MNRE, CEA, Crisil Intelligence The GoI imposing solar RPOs across Indian states in 2011, coupled with the sharp drop in capital costs, led to most states releasing solar polices. This resulted in a spur in solar sector investments. Till fiscal 2012, only Gujarat and Rajasthan had state 145solar policies. After the success of Gujarat’s solar policy, other states such as Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, and Telangana introduced their respective solar polices. During fiscals 2018-2026 (as of July 2025), ~97 GW of solar capacity has been commissioned. Despite the second pandemic wave, ~14 GW of solar capacity was added in fiscal 2022. The momentum continued in fiscal 2023, 2024 and 2025, with robust solar capacity additions of ~13 GW, ~15 GW and ~23.8 GW, respectively and ~13 GW in 4M FY2026. India’s solar capacity commissioned till January 2024 was 74.31 GW which rose to 100.33 GW in January 2025 and 119.01 GW in July 2025. India is committed to become carbon neutral by 2070. By 2030, India aims to achieve a total of 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity addition, with 280 GW of it coming from solar energy. 4.3 Key drivers for capacity additions Figure 22: Growth drivers for solar sector in India Source: Crisil Intelligence Some of these are discussed in detail in the following sections: 4.3.1.1 Declining module prices and tariffs The global average solar module price, which constitutes 55-60% of the total system cost, crashed 73% to $0.47 per watt-peak in 2016 (average for January-December) from $1.78 per watt-peak in 2010. In fact, prices continued to decline to $0.22 per watt-peak by end-August 2019, owing to technology improvement, scale benefits and a demandsupply gap in the global solar module manufacturing industry. Further, declining inverter prices (6-7% of the capital cost), which fell to $0.2 per watt-peak by March 2020 (which has now been reduced to $0.016-0.018 per Wp), reduced system costs. Module prices reached $0.20 per watt-peak level in fiscal 2021. Module prices started to fall in 2023 owing to the ramp-up in the production of upstream components. Prices of modules fell to $0.15-0.20 per watt-peak in April-November 2023 from $0.23 per watt-peak in January 2023. This has eased some pressure on capital costs in fiscal 2024. Prices of Monofacial module had touched USD 0.20 wp by Q4 of fiscal 2024. The average module price for fiscal 2025 was at $0.14/wp, down 42% on year, owing to sharp fall of 54% in cell prices on year. As India largely relies on imported cells for module manufacturing, a steep fall in upstream component prices has also resulted in fall in module prices. Crisil Intelligence expects prices to be in the range of $0.13-0.15/Wp for imported mono-crystalline modules and $0.21-0.23/Wp for domestic mono-crystalline modules (assembled using imported cells) in fiscal 2026, as players are expected to clear inventory of old technology at low prices and seek premium for TOPCon technologies. 146Figure 23: Module prices (USD/Wp) Source: Industry, Crisil Intelligence Table 3: Safeguard and customs duty trajectory Year of July 30, July 30, 2019, January 30, July 30, 2020, January 30, From April From February imposition 2018, to to January 29, 2020, to July to January 29, 2021, to July 1, 2022 2, 2025 (BCD)* July 29, 2020 29, 2020 2021 29, 2021 (BCD) 2019 Duty rate 25% 20% 15% 14.9% 14.5% Module – Module- 20% 40% Cell- 20% Cell – 25% * Additional agricultural and infrastructure development cess of 20% on modules and 7.5% on cells Source: Crisil Intelligence Various players from the Indian solar component manufacturing industry filed additional duty petitions against imports. The key in this regard was a safeguard duty investigation filed by the Indian Solar Manufacturer’s Association (ISMA) to the Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR). After initiating a probe to decide on the continuation of the safeguard duty (SGD) on solar import and further to applications invited from domestic companies for the same, DGTR extended the imposition of the safeguard duty for another year, with the duty being levied at 14.9% from July 30, 2020, to January 29, 2021, followed by 14.5% from January 30, 2021, to July 29, 2021. Declining duty had led to easing cost pressures, and tariffs had also started lowering. The Ministry of Finance imposed BCD of 25% and 40% on solar cells and modules, respectively, effective April 1, 2022. The imposition of BCD led to an increase in capital costs for projects based on imported modules by 20-25%, and an increase in tariffs by Rs 0.2-0.5/kWh (with the tariffs ranging from Rs 2.6-2.8/kWh). In the Budget for fiscal 2026, the government has reduced the import duties on solar cells to 20% from 25% and solar modules to 20% from 40%, effective 2nd February 2025. However, the Agricultural and Infrastructure Development Cess (AIDC) of 20% on modules and 7.5% on cells keep the effective BCD rate of solar modules at 40% and for cells 27.5%. 4.3.1.2 Fiscal and regulatory incentives The Indian government has been offering a variety of incentives to encourage the development of solar power plants. PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojna: For further sustainable development and people’s well-being, the Central Government in February 2024 launched the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojna. This scheme has a proposed outlay of Rs. 75,000 crore and aims to light up 1 crore households by providing up to 300 units of free electricity every month. Subsidy for residential households • Rs. 30,000/- per kW up to 2 kW • Rs. 18,000/- per kW for additional capacity up to 3 kW • Total Subsidy for systems larger than 3 kW capped at Rs 78,000 147Annual Bidding Trajectory: MNRE has prescribed an annual bidding trajectory for RE power bids to be issued by Renewable Energy Implementation Agencies (REIAs). Bids for 50 GW per annum RE capacity, with at least 10 GW per annum Wind power capacity, are to be issued each year from 2023-24 to 2027-28. This is expected to help in achieving the targets specified for 2030. Bids of 53.32 GW have been issued by four REIAs (SECI, NTPC, NHPC & SJVN) in fiscal 2024. REIAs issued RE procurement tenders aggregating 44 GW in fiscal 2025. The GoI has laid significant emphasis on climate change, for which it provided a framework, NAPCC, in 2008, where it proposed an eight-pronged strategy — NSM, energy efficiency, sustainable habitat, water planning, Himalayan ecosystem, afforestation, sustainable agriculture, and strategic knowledge on climate change. As can be seen, the GoI has laid significant emphasis on solar power. This is also evident from the 100 GW out of 175 GW target set out by the GoI. Government support to the solar sector in India is reflected by the following: National Solar Mission Central-level allocations under NVVN Batch II, JNNSM Phase II Batch III and IV have been almost entirely commissioned. Operational support to execute solar projects Apart from providing incentives, the government has lent significant support to the solar power sector for execution of projects. Solar parks and ultra mega RE parks: One of the most important initiatives by the GoI has been setting up of solar parks in the country. To overcome the land and transmission related challenges, the scheme for “Development of Solar Parks and Ultra- Mega Solar Power Projects” was rolled out in December 2014 with an objective to facilitate the solar project developers to set up projects expeditiously. This is critical given the land-intensive nature (~5 acres required per MW of solar PV) of solar projects, coupled with low average holding (1.16 hectare) per person in India. Under the Solar Park Policy released in September 2014, the government planned to prepare land banks for 20,000 MW of solar projects across 25 states (including Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Telangana, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh, Tamil Nadu, Jammu and Kashmir, and a few north-eastern states). These states have started preparing land banks for solar parks, either through their own implementing agencies or through joint ventures with SECI. The capacity of the scheme was doubled from 20,000 MW to 40,000 MW on March 2017, to set up at least 50 solar parks by fiscal 2022. Such parks significantly reduce construction/ execution risk as they include a contiguous parcel of land, evacuation infrastructure (HV/EHV substation evacuating to state grid substation), and other ancillary infrastructure and utilities such as road, water, and drainage. As of March 2025, 55 Solar Parks with an aggregate capacity of 41 GW have been sanctioned in 13 States in the country since the launch of the Scheme i.e. December 2014. An aggregate capacity of 13,054 MW of solar projects have been commissioned in 20 Solar Parks as of March 2025. Other Policy/Regulatory initiatives • Implementation of Electricity (Promoting Renewable Energy Through Green Energy Open Access) Rules, 2022 • The MoP, in August 2020, waived the ISTS charges and losses on all solar and wind projects commissioned before June 30, 2023. In June 2021, the waiver was extended up to June 30, 2025. However, this time, only the ISTS charges were waived off, and losses remained applicable. Waivers are available for projects commissioned by June 30, 2025. Hoverer, post June 2025, an annual increase of 25% in the ISTS charges will be applicable for solar, wind, hydro PSP, and BESS sources, resulting in the applicability of 100% of ISTS charges from July 2028. Subsequently, in February 2023, it was clarified that green hydrogen and green ammonia projects would get a waiver of ISTS charges for 25 years if the projects are commissioned before June 30, 2025. • The MoP further decided to extend the waiver of ISTS charges on the transmission of power from new hydro power projects, for which, construction work is awarded and PPAs are signed on or before June 30, 2025. • Captive power projects are exempt from paying cross subsidy surcharge (CSS), as per Section 42(2) of the Electricity Act 2003.The Supreme Court, in its judgement dated December 10, 2021, ruled that captive power consumers are not liable to pay an additional surcharge under Section 42 (4) of the Electricity Act, 2003. 4.3.1.3 Favourable technology 148Solar power is becoming increasingly attractive due falling module prices and improving efficiency resulting from excess manufacturing capacity in China and technology advancements, respectively. On the project development front, developers are exhibiting heightened preference for bifacial modules that typically have higher efficiency relative to mono-facial modules and are compatible with tracker technology. In 2023, the share of bifacial variant in module imports increased from 8% in Q1 2022 to 40% in Q1 2024. On the other hand, multicrystalline modules are being phased out due to lower efficiency and higher degradation rate – share of import volume was negligible in 2023. The share of monocrystalline technology is now about 84% (compared with 66% in 2019) of total crystalline silicon (c-Si) production. The performance ratio has also been improved in the 80-90% range. The c-Si segment is expected to grow substantially due to c-Si’s long life and light weight. Currently, the solar PV market is dominated by monocrystalline silicon technology. TOPCon technology has also made inroads in India’s solar module manufacturing sector with adoption and switching existing manufacturing lines to TOPCon. Within monocrystalline technology. Within monocrystalline technology, Mono PERC is an advanced version that employs dielectric passivation film on the rear surface of the cells which increases the efficiency levels. These cells are currently leading the market due to higher efficiency, cover less space, higher output in low light conditions and are available at competitive pricing. However, ongoing technology innovation in manufacturing processes is crucial to reduce material intensity, especially for critical minerals like silver and copper. These efforts aim to minimize vulnerabilities in the supply chain. In addition to process improvements, the development of new solar cell designs is essential for achieving further efficiency gains while simultaneously reducing material intensity and manufacturing costs. The p-type to n-type migration is currently underway and paving the way for new technologies, n-type technologies including TOPCon, heterojunction (HJT) and back contact represented 42% of China’s total module manufacturing capacity (7% in 2022). These designs hold the potential for achieving additional efficiency gains in solar panels. Based on pilot tests conducted by leading global manufacturers, it is estimated that the TOPCon cell could provide an additional efficiency gain of upto 2-2.5% gain over mono PERC modules. While TOPCon is expected to be the dominant n-type technology over the next couple of years due to its lower cost over other new technologies, higher efficiency, and lower temperature sensitivity of HJT modules make it a better alternative to TOPCon modules in select locations. Additionally, China market share of HJT modules is expected to increase from an estimated 2% in 2023 to around 16% in 2027 due to decreasing production cost differential with TOPCon technology. In addition, there are ongoing considerations for mass manufacturing of multilayer and tandem silicon-perovskite or silicon- CdTe hybrid solar panels. These innovative solutions have the potential to significantly increase cell efficiency, surpassing the 30% mark, while maintaining competitive production costs and promise to make solar power an even more compelling and sustainable energy solution in the years to come. Figure 24: Cell efficiency comparison Source: NREL, Crisil Intelligence The developments in perovskite solar cells have resulted in a significant efficiency increase in laboratory conditions. Many of the Indian solar PV module manufacturers are also moving towards TOPCon technology. With the use of new technologies, the solar module efficiency is expected to increase by 2% to 2.5% over the next 2-3 years. However, Indian module manufacturers may still be behind their Chinese counterparts due to R&D as well as scale. 4.3.1.4 Green Hydrogen and green ammonia push 149India has announced a target of energy independence by 2047 and a net-zero by 2070. Green Hydrogen is expected to play a substantial role in achieving these goals. The production of Green Hydrogen using renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydropower can provide energy security, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and ensuring a stable and reliable source of energy. India has launched the National Green Hydrogen Mission with an outlay of Rs. 19,744 crores with a target of 5 MMTPA production capacity of Green Hydrogen per annum. Green hydrogen push from the government will likely push for the installation of solar energy for consumption. 4.3.2 Foray of large established global players in India The Indian solar energy sector has been spearheaded by major corporate entities such as Adani, Tata Power, ReNew, NTPC in India. In addition, global firms such as Engie, Sembcorp, Total Energies, Fortum, Eden have demonstrated considerable interest in the Indian solar market. They have entered the sector through partnerships or by acquiring stakes in the leading domestic players’ assets. Furthermore, there are some of the large private equity groups such as KKR and Actis, who are actively investing in the RE firms, further fostering the development and expansion of the sector. Their financial support and strategic initiatives have played a pivotal role in propelling the Indian solar energy market towards greater sustainability and efficiency. 4.3.3 Export segment opening for India players India used to export much higher value of solar modules (fiscal 2011 ~USD 512 million). Indian solar manufacturers derived over 90% of their revenues through exports, given limited opportunity in the domestic market. However, post that, China rapidly expanded its cell and module capacities and emerged as a strong threat to India. Higher scale and backward integration helped improve China's cost-competitiveness, compared with India. Availability of equipment-linked financing further restricted potential for Indian exports. Even as Indian dependence on imported solar modules and cells continued, exports for fiscal 2020 increased to USD 213 million from USD 121 million (increase of 76%) from fiscal 2019. However, due to COVID-19 disruptions, exports declined to USD 77 million in fiscal 2021. Nevertheless, the exports grew in fiscal 2022 by ~45% due to the opening of economy and restoration of normalcy in most parts of the World. During the fiscal 2023, India has experienced a significant surge in solar module exports. This increase can be attributed primarily to the restrictions imposed by other countries on Chinese goods, including solar modules. These restrictions have created opportunities for Indian manufacturers to fill the gap in the global market and meet the demand for solar modules. As a result, India has witnessed a notable boost in its solar module exports, contributing to the growth of its solar industry and strengthening its position as a global player in the renewable energy sector. 4.4 Outlook on Solar capacity additions in India Solar sector growth in India primarily spurred by robust government backing, demonstrated through an aggressive tendering strategy. Some of the key catalysts include technological advancements, affordable financing, supportive policies, thrust on go- green initiatives/sustainability targets, cost optimisation due to increased grid electricity tariffs, subsidy initiative (specially in rooftop solar) and various incentives such as ISTS charge waiver. Crisil Intelligence expects 170-180 GW of solar capacity additions across all segments over fiscal 2026-2030. This will be driven by additions under: • NSM: The entire NSM Phase II Batch II Tranche I of 3,000 MW has been commissioned. Under NSM Phase II, Batch III, and Batch IV, SECI through its state specific VGF has tendered out ~7 GW of capacities, most of which has been completed. • Other central schemes: SECI has also started tendering projects outside the JNNSM Batch programme. It has initiated the ISTS scheme, wherein projects are planned for connection with the ISTS grid directly. Under this, SECI has already tendered and allocated ~40 GW (including hybrid). • State solar policies: ~48 GW of projects are under construction and are expected to be commissioned over the fiscal 2026-2030 based on tendered capacities by states at the end of June 2025. • PSUs: The CPSU programme under JNNSM has been extended to 12 GW in February 2019. The government is also encouraging cash-rich PSUs to set up renewable energy projects. NTPC has already commissioned a total of over ~3.7 GW of capacities as of fiscal 2025. It has a target of installing ~35 GW of renewable energy capacities by fiscal 2028. Similarly, NHPC had allocated 2 GW of projects in 2020, while the Indian Railways has committed to 20 GW of solar power by 2030. Other PSUs such as NLC, defence organizations, and governmental establishments are also expected to contribute to this addition. 150• Rooftop solar projects: Crisil Intelligence expects 30-35 GW of rooftop solar projects (under the capex and opex mode) to be commissioned by fiscal 2030, led by PM Surya Ghar Yojana and industrial and commercial consumers under net/gross metering schemes of various state. • Open-access solar projects: Crisil Intelligence expects 33-37 GW of open-access solar projects (under the capex and opex mode) to be commissioned by fiscal 2029, led by green energy open access rules 2022, sustainability initiatives/RE 100 targets of the corporate consumers, better tariff structures and policies of states such as Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka, which are more long term in nature. Figure 25:Year wise expected solar capacity addition P: Projected; Source: Crisil Intelligence Also, the global conglomerate such as Amazon, Microsoft has set their sustainability goals and procuring more and more renewable energy in India to set off their global GHG emission. This also provides a lucrative opportunity for IPPs to sign PPAs for RE capacity. The European Unions’ (EU) Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is the EU's tool to put a fair price on the carbon emitted during the production of carbon intensive goods that are entering the EU, and to encourage cleaner industrial production in non-EU countries. The CBAM is expected to have a significant impact on solar capacity additions in non-EU countries. With increasing adoption of solar energy, CBAM is expected to contribute to overall growth of the market. The CBAM is expected to drive the renewable energy demand for energy intensive industries who export their products in European markets in order to follow their norms regarding carbon emission and avoid imposition of penalties for non-adherence to such rules & regulations. Crisil Intelligence’s outlook factors in the prevailing market dynamics, where regulatory/policy support is key. The renewable energy domain is highly dependent on policy support, and any uncertainty surrounding this could restrict capacity additions. 4.5 Key challenges/bottlenecks/threats for solar capacity additions Notwithstanding the high potential of solar energy, it is mired with some challenges. Overcoming these challenges will be critical for the successful implementation of solar projects. Availability of contiguous parcels of land: With rapid capacity additions and intense competition, it becomes imperative for developers to acquire land at competitive costs and in areas with high levels of solar irradiance. The 40 GW solar park scheme, which provides land to successful bidders for setting up of the projects, is facilitative in this aspect; however, other than the scheme, capital costs and, hence, tariffs vary between the states depending on land prices and irradiance quality. Adequacy of evacuation infrastructure: Grid integration of renewables is key to the sector's growth. Instances of delay in readiness of transmission infrastructure at solar parks have caused concern among developers. However, an aggressive roadmap to add an incremental ~100 GW via new schemes and existing available capacity to the grid should be adequate for the expected solar capacity additions’ timely execution is critical. Availability of low-cost capital: With the emergence of several large players in the sector, scale, and experience have aided fund-raising to an extent, especially with the backing of several foreign investors. However, after factoring in the weak rupee, the conservative risk appetite of lenders, and other added cost pressures, it is imperative for developers to maintain prudent capital management over the long term. To mitigate these factors, developers have been tapping alternative/new routes to raise 151money from time to time. Furthermore, the other key monitorable are deterioration in the financial profile of distribution utilities resulting in offtake issues and payment defaults, declining power deficit, and aggressive bidding. 4.6 Movement of the project capital costs EPC costs and O&M costs Solar project CAPEX trend has largely followed global module price trends – between 2011 and 2021, EPC cost for utility- scale projects reduced by around 65% to Rs ~39 million/MWp due to falling module prices. While landed module cost increased temporarily in Q2 2022 due imposition of BCD on China modules, over H2 of 2022 and 2023, led by a massive supply glut in China, prices across the solar value chain declined sharply – China module prices decreased by around 57% in two-year period ended December 2023 to USD 0.12/Wp. As a result, EPC cost for utility-scale projects declined by around 33% in the two-year period ended December 2024 to Rs 23 million/ MWp. On the BoS front, while prices of commodities like copper and aluminum (used for building mounting structures and other key components) are volatile, the effect on overall EPC cost is marginal due to low share in CAPEX. Going forward, while China module prices are expected to remain soft due to excess manufacturing capacity coupled with subdued international demand (mainly due to US aversion to China imports and high inventory levels in EU), domestic prices are expected to hover around USD 0.17-0.18/Wp for domestic mono-crystalline modules (assembled using imported cells) in fiscal 2026. Further, the MNRE mandates ALMM List-II for solar PV cells from 1st June 2026 onwards. All projects including government-backed schemes, net-metering projects, and open access will be required to source their solar cells from ALMM List-II for module manufacturing. Modules that use domestic cells are expected to be even more expensive, with prices at least 50% higher than those using imported cells. Therefore, until sufficient domestic manufacturing capacity is established, the use of domestic modules with domestic cells could lead to a significant increase in domestic tariffs. On the O&M front, costs have decreased by around 30% in the last 3-4 years to around Rs 0.18-0.25 Mn/MW/annum due to experience gained by service providers coupled with technology adoption including robotic cleaning. Robotic cleaning not only helps in achieving better efficiency but also are more environmentally friendly since they use less water and no chemical cleaners.

Overview on Indian Solar EPC market 1525.1 Introduction A typical EPC solar project covers design, civil works, equipment purchase and installation, and commissioning. However, with constrained returns, the scope of an EPC solar project has been evolved and now includes O&M services also. Most of the EPC players provide integrated and customised solutions as per the client requirements through a consultative approach. Favourable government initiatives, increased demand for clean and green energy, rooftop installations by C&I Consumers have provided impetus to solar installations. The EPC services can be classified into various subcategories based on the scale and type of installations, i.e., utility scale and rooftop solar installations. Some of the key players in EPC are Waaree Energies, Tata Power, Sterling & Wilson, Vikram Solar, BHEL, Solarworld, Prozeal Infra, L&T and Jakson etc. Most of these players are also present in rooftop solar installation’s EPC. The development of solar power projects in India requires a detailed and extensive process, from conceptualization to commissioning and regulatory approvals. The processes can be broadly divided into following stages: • Conceptualization: Identification of a project location, followed by a feasibility study and project proposal preparation. • Engineering: Design and engineering of the solar power plant, including layout, electrical infrastructure, and civil works. • Procurement: Acquisition of equipment, materials, and services. • Construction: Site preparation, installation of equipment, and construction of civil infrastructure. • Commissioning: Pre-commissioning, commissioning, and performance testing to ensure the plant meets performance guarantees. • Regulatory Approvals: Obtaining necessary permits and approvals in the during the construction and commissioning phase, including Consent to establish, Consent to operate, Fire NOC, Environment Clearance, Forest Clearance, Grid Connectivity Approval, and registration with the State Nodal Agency etc. The regulatory framework in India is administered by the MNRE, CERC, and State Nodal Agencies, with key regulations and policies including the RPO, Open Access Policy, Grid Connectivity etc. The entire EPC process typically takes around approximately 12-18 months, with an additional 3-6 months for regulatory approvals. However, the process can be challenging, with common obstacles including land acquisition, grid connectivity, off takers, environmental and social impact, and financing. The overall project works is classified as supply (material) contracts and services contracts and are awarded to different entities instead of one single EPC contractor. The capital-intensive items, such as modules, transformers, inverters, and cables, covering around 75-80% of the project cost are being procured by developers. The developers enter into third-party contracts for services part, covering civil works, commissioning, erection and mounting of equipment, which forms around 20-25% of the project cost. However, some solar module manufacturers insist on buying the entire package and not just solar modules, since they also provide EPC services. 5.2 Capex and Opex Models Based on financing options, the capex or opex models can be used to installation of solar plants specially in case of C&I consumers or rooftop solar systems. In financing, there are two options either make the upfront investment or let a third party invest in the system. These are known as capital expenditure (Capex) model or the operating expenditure (Opex) model. The Opex model is also known as RESCO model. Under Capex model, the consumer makes the upfront investment and owns the plant. The consumer takes care of EPC and commissioning of the plant. Opex or RESCO model works on build own and operate basis. A comparison of Capex and Opex model is summarised below: Table 4: Comparison of capex and opex model Particulars Captive/ Capex model Opex model Investment 100% upfront by consumer (70% loan and 30% No upfront investment by consumer (100% investment by equity) RESCO/developer) Ownership With consumer With Developer/Generator Regulatory risks and Consumer’s responsibility Developer’s responsibility permits Payments by EPC services, O&M expenses, but no electricity Only for electricity purchased consumer charges Tax benefits to Consumer can claim income tax benefits such as No such benefit available for the consumer(s) consumer accelerated depreciation O&M of the Plant Consumer to manage O&M through self/ third party No payments for O&M expenses; the same is under the 153Particulars Captive/ Capex model Opex model O&M service providers Developer’s scope Payback for consumer Slightly longer payback period due to higher upfront Savings starts from the day of start of supply investments Cash Flow Immediate, large cash flow to EPC Consistent long-term cash flow to RESCO/developer Contractor Construction risk Land acquisition, clearances/ approvals, liasoning Construction risk entirely borne by the Developer and timely commissioning under the consumer’s ambit Responsibility Can focus on project execution Ongoing responsibility of O&M Limited recurring/ongoing responsibilities for EPC O&M risk borne by RESCO/developer Contactor O&M risk borne by consumer Technical know-how Dedicated team with requisite expertise is required Developer entirely responsible for smooth operation of the for smooth operation of the Plant Plant Performance risk Consumer is responsible for operations and Developer responsible for operations and downtime losses; downtime losses for any loss consumer may get compensated by Developer Source: Industry, Crisil Intelligence 5.3 Project execution using in-house EPC vs outsourcing to specialised EPC players The Indian solar market has been booming, with capacity additions rising to average ~9 GW in the past five years (fiscals 2019- 23) from 780 MW in fiscal 2013. Several projects have been commissioned under the central schemes of NVVN Tranche 1 and JNNSM Phase II and Batch III. Complementary central and state government policies coupled with the increasing price competitiveness of solar power has led to a surge in solar installations. However, declining module prices and aggressive competitive bidding on the part of players has led to lower solar power tariffs. This has constrained margins for EPC players. To reduce costs, more developers are opting to carry out their own EPC rather than outsourcing to a contractor. Project developers are becoming system integrators, thereby providing holistic turnkey solutions. Standalone, large EPC firms are diversifying their portfolio towards building their own generation capacities to stay competitive. Smaller EPC firms without the financial prowess for project development are vertically integrating into captive projects and rooftop installations. Following are some of the key considerations while making decisions. • Size and complexity of the project • Budget • Timelines • Own level of expertise • Desired level of control over project 5.3.1 Pros and cons of different business models Factor In-house EPC Outsourcing to large, specialised EPC contractors Equipment costs 1.

However, it can be controlled by reducing the parts to be available at the site is less. This reduces replacement time of faulty equipment. The problem is generation loss, especially in the peak power generation aggravated since major components such as solar summer season. 154Factor In-house EPC Outsourcing to large, specialised EPC contractors modules and inverters are imported, resulting in higher lead time. Hence, in the case of in-house EPC projects, O&M contractors are appointed Risk diversification Although the solar industry is growing, it is still prone to EPC players aim at playing with scale and cost to improve volatility and uncertainty.

Crisil Intelligence expects capacity additions to grow over the next five years led by strong pipeline build-up under existing schemes and new tendering schemes, improvement in technology and mixed resource models. EPC services for Solar energy are dominated by third-party service providers in the country (~40-45%). A solar EPC cost typically ranges from Rs. 45,000 -50,000/kW. 155Figure 28: Third Party Solar EPC Market India 6. Overview on Indian Solar O&M Market 6.1 Solar O&M Contracts in India The India’s Solar energy industry has rapidly grown over the previous years as a result of the government’s ambitious renewable energy objectives and declining costs associated with PV technologies. O&M market for the solar power is increasingly important in order to maintain performance and durability of such investments, given the rising numbers of installation. The O&M market in India for solar power is expanding in the tandem with the country’s installed capacity which has reached ~ 119 GW as of 31st July 2025. Out of the total O&M market ~ 45% is the share of third-party O&M, therefore ~ 50-55 GW is total addressable market for this business. This has spurred demand for the comprehensive O&M services to ensure the optimal performance, reliability and the efficiency of the solar plants. Effective O&M practices are essential for maintaining the health of solar installations, minimizing downtime, and maximizing the energy yield. Operations • Planning: It includes preparing a schedule of maintenance activities, preparing inventory of spares and tools, and formulating contingency plans in case equipment breakdown. • Project operations: It includes analysing and reporting plant performance, managing warranty and insurance claims, security, management of spares, overall project supervision and meeting various statutory requirements. Maintenance • Preventive maintenance: It is based on a pre-determined routine to monitor equipment and prevent faults. It is done at regular intervals agreed by both O&M contractor and project owner. For example, servicing and cleaning of modules, thermography and IV curve testing at a scheduled interval. • Unscheduled maintenance: It includes repair of broken-down equipment to a functioning state. O&M contractors must aim to reduce instances of corrective maintenance by ensuring robust scheduled maintenance and preventive maintenance. • Corrective maintenance: It includes fault diagnosis, repairing a faulty part and takes place after the fault has occurred. • Predictive maintenance: It is a condition-based maintenance carried out by studying and analysing plant performance and degradation patterns of various equipment like modules, inverters, AC/ DC cables, transformers etc. It can help reduce instances of corrective maintenance. • Extraordinary maintenance: These interventions are required for causes beyond the control of contractor. Nonroutine repair arising out of major unpredictable events including theft or fire, endemic failures, modifications required by regulatory changes and equipment design faults. 1566.2 Business models for Solar O&M India's O&M business model is critical to the smooth running and longevity of the projects. The model focuses on the ongoing maintenance and optimal operation of various assets such as power plants, transportation networks, and utility systems. For India, the O&M model is important due to the rapid development of the country's infrastructure and the need to maintain high levels of service delivery. The model includes many key features, including routine inspections, preventive maintenance and repairs, performance monitoring and predictive analytics. These efforts help provide stable and reliable services to end users by reducing the footprint, reducing operational costs, and extending the useful life of Solar assets.

NTPC has already issued solar O&M tenders for more than 900 MW capacity in the last two years. • Sector maturity and growth o As the solar sector grows and matures, third-party O&M model with clear allocation of risks and responsibilities is expected to increase. 157o International investors prefer outsourcing O&M to giving complete asset management responsibility to third parties. o Average project life for utility scale solar projects in India is currently only 3.5 years. As these plants age and the defect liability period expires, O&M is expected to get increasingly complex leading to requirement of specialised O&M contractors. 6.3.2 Threats and challenges which affect the O&M market: • Execution challenges o Sourcing and maintenance of spares for sites in remote locations is a challenging, time-consuming and capital- intensive task. Delay in sourcing spares or critical equipment can result in extended downtime and disproportionate loss of revenue. o Unavailability of water poses a significant challenge at sites located in arid and dry regions like Rajasthan and Gujarat. • Lack of skilled manpower o Skilled manpower for monitoring plant operations and supervising key activities is not usually available near project locations. o Unskilled manpower is available in abundance but needs to be provided adequate training in basic engineering tasks and H&S requirements. • Increasing competitive intensity o New players often enter the business attracted by growing market size and low entry barriers. Strong competition results in a low win rate in PSU tenders, dilution on contract terms and/ or reduction in margins. 6.4 Assessment of Solar O&M Market O&M services for wind energy is dominated by the equipment manufacturers in the country. A typical wind turbine O&M cost ranges from Rs.1,000-1,500/kW of capacity whereas for solar it ranges from Rs. 200 -300/kW. The type of services offered as a part of O&M contracts include: • Supply of equipment including large equipment supply; sundry or small equipment supply and consumables etc. • Repair services incl. regular repair & maintenance, major repair or overhaul and equipment replacement etc. Historical O&M services market for solar for the past 4 years is summarized below: Particulars Unit FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 All India installed solar capacity GW 54.00 66.78 81.81 105.65 O&M Services for solar Rs.

This growth is primarily spurred by robust government backing, demonstrated through an aggressive tendering strategy. Crisil Intelligence expects capacity additions to grow over the next five years led by strong pipeline build-up under existing schemes and new tendering schemes, improvement in technology and mixed resource models. The third-party O&M services constitute around 30-35% of the total market. Therefore, the demand for third party O&M services is expected to be in the range of Rs.27-28 billion by fiscal 2030. 158Figure 29: India third party solar O&M services, fiscal 2026 to 2030 F: Forecasted; Source: Industry, Crisil Intelligence 7. Assessment of solar equipment manufacturing in India 7.1 Overview of solar module manufacturing value chain in India Crystalline silicon (c-Si) technology is largely deployed in solar PV globally as well as in India. The technology is also expected to comprise the largest pie in India’s ambitious target of 280 GW solar capacity addition by 2030. However, currently, 80-85% of the solar modules need be imported as domestic capacity is inadequate to meet demand. India does not have a manufacturing base for polysilicon ingots and wafer; hence, players import these components, incurring high cost. Figure 30: Schematic of c-Si PV module supply chain Source: Crisil Intelligence Many GW-scale companies are present in India currently. Additionally, many of the smaller companies have capacities in the 100-500 MW range, with very high operational costs. Table 6: Key domestic solar module manufacturers with capacity Sr. no.

Global manufacturers such as LONGi Solar, Trina Solar, JA Solar, Jinko Solar, etc. are present across the PV value chain, and operate on a larger scale; hence, enjoy significant cost advantages. The development of the Solar PV industry in India is at a critical point. Following COVID-19, it underwent an expedited change that was largely made possible by a supportive policy initiative. As a result, the sector is preparing to meet the growing demand for solar energy on both domestic and global markets. 159India and other net PV importers, like the U.S., have implemented several policies throughout time to reduce their reliance on China for PV products. The use of tariff barriers, such as safeguard duties (SGD) in India and antidumping taxes in the US, is one of them. India’s cumulative module manufacturing nameplate capacity has reached ~101 GW as per ALMM list updated 13th August 2025 and the cumulative cell manufacturing capacity is about ~25 GW till fiscal 2025. The nameplate module capacity in India is expected to touch 110-120 GW by March 2026. The difference in the manufacturing capacities of solar cell and module is partly due to the lack of vertical integration of domestic solar fabs. However, the operational capacity could be less than 50% of the nameplate capacity. Further, regarding ingots/wafer manufacturing, Adani Solar in December 2022 introduced a large-sized monocrystalline silicon ingot in its Mundra (Gujarat) facility. This development led the company to become India’s first manufacturer of monocrystalline silicon ingots, capable of producing M10 (182mm) and M12 (210mm) size wafers. Lastly, Polysilicon, the first stage in the PV manufacturing chain involves the most complex manufacturing process. Currently there are no manufacturers for domestic polysilicon manufacturing, but it is expected that under the PLI scheme the winners would setup the first of the future polysilicon production capacities within the next two- three years through integrated factories. While moving up the value chain, from solar modules and cells to ingots/wafers and polysilicon, India's PV manufacturing skills substantially decline. Proceeding upstream in the PV supply chain, the complexity and manufacturing capex requirements increase. Polysilicon and ingots/wafers have historically played a negligible role in India's overall PV commodities/products trade. For these components, the domestic industry has solely depended on imported products from international marketplaces. It is also noteworthy that the majority of solar module production is centred on a small number of states. Manufacturing of solar modules is concentrated in these states for a number of reasons, including easy access to ports (for international trade), affordable land, and readily available power close to special economic zones (SEZ). Gujarat will still house most of the manufacturing capacity. 7.1.1 Solar cell and module manufacturing Solar PV module manufacturing value chain encompasses five critical processes for transforming raw materials i.e., Polysilicon into finished solar panels that are ready for electricity generation. It's a complex and globalized network, with each step contributing to the final product's cost, performance, and sustainability. Solar Cells A solar cell, also known as a photovoltaic cell, converts light energy directly into electricity using the photovoltaic effect. This effect is a combination of physical and chemical processes. Solar cells are a type of photoelectric cell, meaning their electrical properties, like current, voltage, and resistance, change when exposed to light. They are the fundamental units of photovoltaic modules. Figure 31: Key materials and components used in solar cell manufacturing Source: Industry; CRISIL MI&A 160Solar Cell technology is moving to more efficient TOPCon and HJT Technologies The solar cell industry has evolved significantly, striving for higher efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Initially, polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) was prevalent due to its simplicity and affordability, though its efficiency was limited. The advent of Passivated Emitter Rear Cell (PERC) technology marked a major breakthrough. PERC cells improved efficiency by adding surface texturing and passivating layers on both sides, enhancing light capture and reducing electron loss. This innovation has driven the industry forward, enabling the production of more powerful and costeffective solar panels. Mono PERC technology further increases efficiency by using single-crystal cells, providing more room for electron movement. These cells are more efficient, space-efficient, durable, and have a sleek appearance. The solar technology landscape continues to evolve, with new advancements like Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact (TOPCon) and Heterojunction cells (HJT) enhancing efficiency, degradation resistance, and reliability. These next-generation panels represent the future of photovoltaic technology. Following the PERC breakthrough, the latest Solar PV cell technologies are TOPCon, and HJT. The table below compares these technologies on various parameters. Table 7: Comparison of PERC, TOPCon and HJT Technologies Parameters Mono PERC TOPCon HJT Initial Capex $ 31-38 mn./GW $ 38-46 mn./GW $ 69-75 mn./GW Cell Efficiency 23.2% - 23.7% 24.5% - 25.2% 24.5% - 25.2% Module Efficiency 20.0% – 21.5% 22.0% - 23.0% 22.0% - 23.0% Bi-faciality 70% - 75% 80% - 85% 80% - 90% Complexity Moderately complex Less than HJT Most complex Temperature Co-efficient of • -0.35% / °C. • -0.29% / °C. • 0.24% to -0.26% / °C.

Such losses PID and LID losses in TOPCon Not prone to PID and LID losses, are high compared to peers are lower compared to Mono since general cell construction is n- PERC, type Note: Initial capex for module manufacturing lines pertains to Chinese set-ups. Potential Induced Degradation (PID) and Light Induced Degradation (LID) Source: Industry, Crisil Intelligence The p-type to n-type migration is currently underway and paving the way for new technologies – by end of 2023, n- type technologies including TOPCon, HJT and back contact represented 42% of China’s total module manufacturing capacity (7% in 2022). The TOPCon cell could provide an additional efficiency gain of upto 2-2.5% gain over mono PERC modules. While TOPCon is expected to be the dominant n-type technology over the next couple of years due to its lower cost over other new technologies, higher efficiency, and lower temperature sensitivity of HJT modules make it a better alternative to TOPCon modules in select locations. Additionally, China market share of HJT modules is expected to increase from an estimated 2% in 2023 to around 16% in 2027 due to decreasing production cost differential with TOPCon technology. In addition, there are ongoing considerations for mass manufacturing of multilayer and tandem silicon-perovskite or silicon-CdTe hybrid solar panels. These innovative solutions have the potential to significantly increase cell efficiency, surpassing the 30% mark, while maintaining competitive production costs and promise to make solar power an even more compelling and sustainable energy solution in the years to come. The developments in perovskite solar cells have resulted in a significant efficiency increase in laboratory conditions. Many of the Indian solar PV module manufacturers are also moving towards TOPCon technology. With the use of new technologies, the solar module efficiency is expected to increase by 2% to 2.5% over the next 2-3 years. However, Indian module manufacturers may still be behind their Chinese counterparts due to R&D as well as scale. In the coming years, it is expected that more advanced cell designs such as HJT, TOPCon, and back contact will gain greater market shares. These cell designs hold the potential for achieving additional efficiency gains in solar panels. Solar Modules Solar module, or solar panel, is a framework of photovoltaic cells that converts sunlight into direct current electricity. Solar modules are assembled using monocrystalline and TOPCon cells sourced from third-party suppliers. The key raw materials and components include: 161Figure 32: Solar module key components Source: Industry, Crisil Intelligence Figure 33: TopCon share inches up while Mono PERC continues to be largest Note: The share of technology denotes the count of module batch enlistment per technology divided by total module batch enlistment in the respective month. MNRE has not released ALMM for March 2023 and thus ALMM for February 2023 has been used. Source: MNRE, Crisil Intelligence More than 85-90% of Indian solar module manufacturers have shifted to Mono-PERC and Mono-PERC is expected to dominate the technology for the next 2-3 years. Most of the Indian manufacturers have set up or planning to set up new facilities with an option of upgradation to newer technologies. Some of the Companies have existing manufacturing facilities which can be upgraded to TOPCon technology. Reliance New Energy Solar will leverage HJT for improved module efficiency. TOPCon technology is slowly getting prominence in Indian solar manufacturing Industries. Most of the leading players have already started offering TOPCon modules. Some of them are planning to switch to TOPCon from existing Mono-PERC or set up greenfield TOPCon manufacturing facilities. e.g., Adani, Emvee, Gautam Solar, TATA Power, Saatvik Green etc. In addition, there are ongoing considerations for mass manufacturing of multilayer and tandem silicon-perovskite or silicon- CdTe hybrid solar panels. These innovative solutions have the potential to significantly increase cell efficiency, surpassing the 30% mark, while maintaining competitive production costs. LONGi Solar: During 2022, LONGi effectively met customers' market demand for mono products. The sales of main products (i.e., mono wafers and modules) increased significantly over the same period last year, bringing steady growth of operating 162revenue and profit. In 2024, LONGi achieved wafer shipments of 108.46 GW, split between external sales of 46.55 GW and 61.9 GW for internal use and shipped 82.32 GW of cells and modules. In addition 17.33 GW shipment was done for HPBC modules. During 2024, Jinko Solar shipped 93 GW modules. The following table below summarises the sales volumes by solar module types. Table 8: Sales volumes by solar module types by Jinko Solar Sales volume CY19 CY20 CY21 CY22 CY23 CY24 MW % MW % MW % MW % MW % MW % Solar modules – Poly 3,554 25% 385 2% 40.8 0% 1.3 0% 0 0% 0 0% Solar modules – Mono 944 7% 115.2 1% 7.3 0% 13 0% 257 0% 0 0% Solar modules – N - - - - - - 10,684 24% 48,405 62% 81,291 88% Type Solar modules – Mono 9,710 68% 18,270 97% 22,185 100% 33,636 76% 29,858 38% 11,581 12% PERC Total 14,208 100% 18,771 100% 22,233 100% 44,334 100% 78,520 100% 92,872 100% Source: Annual Report 2024, Crisil Intelligence From the above table, the mono PERC share for Jinko Solar decreased from 68% in 2019 to ~12% in 2024. Recently there is a demand for N-type solar panels and Mono PERC panels are losing more and more ground compared to them. N-types modules had a share of 88% in 2024 for Longi. Share of n-type technology in China module manufacturing capacity stood at over 40% at end-2024 with TOPCon variant emerging as the frontrunner as Mono PERC lines can easily be upgraded to TOPCon at an additional investment of 10-15% of base capital expenditure. 7.2 Outlook on solar module and cell manufacturing India aims to build its presence across all stages of PV manufacturing over the next two to three years. In November 2020, the GoI introduced the PLI scheme for manufacturing high-efficiency solar PV modules with a financial outlay of Rs 45 billion. It later enhanced the outlay by Rs 195 billion under the Union Budget for fiscal 2023. In May 2021, the IREDA issued a tender to set up 10 GW of high-efficiency solar module manufacturing capacities. The total PLI granted across the three final awardees (Reliance, Shirdi Sai Electricals and Adani) was Rs 44.55 billion, which would lead to the setting up of 8,737 MW of PLI-linked capacity. The second bid conducted by SECI under PLI scheme concluded in February 2023. A total capacity of 39.6 GW of domestic Solar PV module manufacturing capacity has been awarded to 11 companies, with a total outlay of Rs 140 billion. As per the government estimates, manufacturing capacity totaling 7.4 GW is expected to become operational by October 2024, 16.8 GW by April 2025 and the balance 15.4 GW by April 2026. Considering the two tranches together, the total domestic solar PV module manufacturing capacity allocated under the PLI Scheme is 48,337 MW, with a cumulative support of more than Rs. 185 billion by the Government. Crisil Intelligence expects solar PV manufacturing Capacity to reach 170-180 GW by fiscal 2030, with full integration from polysilicon to modules expected to account for ~25% of capacities, largely driven by PLIs. Achieving this is expected to require an investment of Rs 1.20-1.30 trillion by fiscal 2030. Crisil Intelligence expects module manufacturing capacity to grow twice by fiscal 2030 with ~25% of the capacity to be fully integrated and integrated units to come only post fiscal 2025. Gujarat will be at the epicenter of additions with ~55-60% additions in the next 5 fiscals. 163Figure 34: Current and projected manufacturing capacity, GW E: Estimated; Source: Industry, Crisil Intelligence 7.3 Domestic vs Export demand potential During 2000-2010, the Indian cell and module manufactures were as competitive as their global counterparts. They exported majority of their production due to robust overseas demand. Players such as Moser Baer, Tata BP Solar (now Tata Power Solar), Jupiter Solar Power, and Indosolar made substantial investments in solar cells and modules manufacturing. However, the Indian market still relied heavily on imported modules that were cheaper and more efficient than domestic modules. As of June 2025, India had ~25 GW installed capacity of solar cells and ~101 GW of modules (as per ALMM list 13th August 2025). The nameplate module capacity in India is expected to touch 110-120 GW by March 2026. Even though India is one of the top ten solar module producers, it is far behind its biggest competitor China. In fiscal 2024, imports increased by a staggering 11x on-year to 26,690 MW (from 2,098 MW in previous fiscal). The sudden and sharp surge in import was mainly due to ALMM waiver coupled with expiration of time extensions provided to projects under COVID-19 relief. In fiscal 2025 the import of solar cells and module fell by 37% due to reimposition of ALMM. Despite the price surge across the value chain for solar components, imports have been robust as seller and developers availed duty free period after July 2021 and imported modules for commissioning planned even in fiscals 2022 and 2023 in advance. However, during fiscal 2023, the module import declined due to imposition of BCD on imported solar module, DCR and increased domestic production capacity. China continues to be the largest module exporter to India, followed by Southeast Asia (SEA). BCD along with the PLI scheme is expected to improve the demand for domestic modules. However, till that time imports will continue to form majority portion of domestic demand due to lower price and better technology. Imports have been the primary source of modules installed in the country over the past 7-8 years, with China's share reaching 77% in fiscal 2024. While China has historically maintained the majority share in imports, SEA imports, eligible for zero custom duty under the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) are gaining strong traction. Module imports from countries other than China and SEA have been negligible. Going forward, reliance on module imports is expected to decrease after fiscal 2024 due to reimposition of ALMM coupled with rapid growth of domestic manufacturing capacity. Crisil Intelligence anticipates that import dependency for modules will decline to 8-10% by fiscal 2028. Nevertheless, India will continue to depend on imports for upstream components such as polysilicon, wafers, and cells. 7.4 Major export destinations for Indian solar modules Although India has been importing around 80% of its solar module requirement, it is worthwhile to note that exports in fiscal 2020 saw a massive increase of 75% over fiscal 2019 levels. However, during fiscal 2021, exports reduced by around 65% due to restrictions imposed globally amid the COVID-19 pandemic. During fiscal 2023, India has experienced a significant surge in solar module exports. This increase can be attributed primarily to the restrictions imposed by other countries on Chinese goods, including solar modules. These restrictions have created opportunities for Indian manufacturers to fill the gap in the global market and meet the demand for solar modules. As a result, India has witnessed a notable boost in its solar module exports, contributing to the growth of its solar industry and strengthening its position as a global player in the renewable energy sector. 164US enacted the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) in December 2021 with June 21, 2022, as effective date. Implementation of ULFA has supported India’s solar module exports. The ULFA prohibits importation of goods into the United States manufactured wholly or in part with forced labor in the People's Republic of China, especially from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, or Xinjiang. This has provided an opportunity for alternative sources such as India for demand for solar modules. Further, the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has allocated ~$400 Bn for clean energy. It is expected that it will lead to critical implications for climate change, trade, security, and foreign policy. The tax credits provide financial incentives to both domestic solar demand and supply. The “Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Tax Credit” pertains to manufacturers who produce eligible components within the United States and sell them to unrelated parties. The credit rates for Section 45X vary and are determined based on the specific component being manufactured. Limited domestic production of solar modules/cells in the USA has made it heavily reliant on international suppliers to meet its growing demand. This dependency presents a substantial opportunity for foreign manufacturers to penetrate the burgeoning US solar market. By either establishing operations in the US or exporting their products, foreign solar module/cell manufacturers can secure a significant share in this expanding industry. Several factors are contributing to India's emergence as a major exporter of solar module/cells to the US. Firstly, IRA incentivize domestic solar module production, which in turn drives up the demand for solar cells. This creates a prime opportunity for Indian manufacturers. Additionally, existing regulations, including Anti-Dumping Duties on Chinese imports, make Indian solar cells more appealing to US companies. India, with its strong solar manufacturing capabilities and being a reputed supplier of high-quality solar modules, benefitted to a large extent because of this shift. Indian solar module manufacturers have been able to capitalize the opportunity created by ULFA by expanding production capacities as well as meeting the stringent requirements for exporting to the US market. Resultantly, India’s export to US have been surged significantly after implementation of ULFA and exports to US have seen substantial increases in fiscal 2022.With more focus on sustainability and its plans for expansion of solar capacity, the trend of export to US is expected to continue. Figure 35: Export of modules from India in value terms *Apr-June 2025 (Q1 FY26), Source: Ministry of Commerce; Data for HS Code 85414011; FY 21-22 (HS Code 85414011+85414012): FY 23 onwards (HS Code 85414300 +85414200); Crisil Intelligence Until recently, India had the same HS code for solar cells whether they were assembled as modules/panels – 85414011. In the Union Budget 2020, the Ministry of Finance segregated the HS codes as following: 85414011 - Solar cells (not assembled); 85414012 - Solar cells (assembled in modules or made up into panels) 854143- Photovoltaic cells assembled in modules or made up into panels; 85414200- Photovoltaic cells not assembled in modules or made up into panels; 85414300-Photovoltaic cells assembled in modules or made up into panels From April 2021, separate data 85414012 is available; however, historical data is not available for said code. During fiscal Q1 2026, USA accounted for ~96% of the exports of solar modules (in value terms), followed by Bangladesh and Kenya. Also, during fiscal 2025, USA accounted for ~97% of the exports of solar modules, followed by Bangladesh and Sri Lanka and during fiscal 2024, US accounted for ~98% of the total exports of solar module followed by Somalia and South Africa. 165Figure 36: % Share of export of solar modules (in value terms USD Mn) Source: Ministry of Commerce; HS Code 85414300+ 85414200; Crisil Intelligence There are buyers for Indian Modules in international markets, however compared to Chinese manufacturers, the volume is very low. Also, majority of Indian module manufacturers cater maximum to domestic market unlike Chinese which export majority of their production. USA is expected to be the major export destination for India. Future demand will also be driven by the EU, Africa, and Gulf Countries due to healthy additions of solar capacity. However, the US administration has imposed new tariffs on solar imports from Southeast Asian Countries namely Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia and Thailand. These new tariffs will be in addition to the 10% baseline tariffs already imposed. On July 31, 2025, USA issued an executive order setting out the new reciprocal tariff rates for individual countries. As per the terms of the order, the new tariff rates took effect on August 7, 2025. For India, the initial 25% tariff came into effect from August 7, 2025, the additional 25% tariff came into effect from August 27, 2025. Table 9: Summary of Tariff imposed by USA on various SA countries Country Tariffs China 30% Cambodia 19% Malaysia 19% Vietnam 20% Thailand 19% Laos 40% Indonesia 19% India 50% Source: Industry, U.S. Dept. of Commerce, Crisil Intelligence The extent of impact will vary depending on exposure, ability to pass on incremental costs to customers, and relative tariff disadvantage versus competing nations. A potential second-order impact, including a slowdown in US demand and disparate tariffs across nations that could alter trade dynamics globally, also warrants close monitoring. Any potential trade agreement between the two nations in the coming days will bear watching, 7.5 Key challenges/bottlenecks/threats for solar module segment 7.5.1 Policy and regulatory uncertainty The solar energy segment is largely dependent on government policies. Government policies play a crucial role in shaping the solar module manufacturing landscape in India. Key policy measures include applicability of ALMM, safeguard duty, BCD and solar module manufacturing PLI scheme. Despite a very supportive government, the policy framework has been in flux with several amendments and reversals. Policy formulation and implementation is often hampered by shifting and conflicting priorities, poor design, disjointedness between different arms of the government and disregard for practical considerations. A representative example of policy flux in the PV module market is given below. 1667.5.2 Market demand variability Market demand fluctuations is influenced by changes in government policies, incentives for solar projects, changes in solar tendering capacity, shifts in export markets. The government tenders play a crucial role in driving demand for solar modules in India. Inconsistent tendering schedules can create uncertainty for manufacturers, making it difficult to plan production and manage inventory. Indian Solar PV manufacturers still operate their plants at ~50% of its capacity due to lack of demand from private IPPs. Sudden spikes in demand can strain production capacity, while dips can lead to underutilisation of resources. Similarly, an economic downturn or growth spurts in export markets can lead to fluctuating demand for solar modules. 7.5.3 Technological challenges Solar PV manufacturing is advancing towards more efficient and cheaper modules. Any changes in solar technology can shift demand towards newer products, rendering existing inventory less desirable. All technology know-how and even manufacturing lines and installation personnel for new PV cell and module lines, being set up currently, are coming mostly from Chinese suppliers. Therefore, maintaining high quality standards and keeping up with rapid technological advancements can be challenging for this industry. 7.5.4 Supply chain disruptions India heavily relies on imports for critical components like solar cell, wafers, EVA sheet, glass, etc. This dependence makes the industry vulnerable to global supply chain disruptions, price volatility and trade policies. An unreliable supply chain can lead to production delays and inconsistencies affecting the ability to meet demand. 7.5.5 Competitive pressure There are multiple players in this sector who have announced their plans to setup manufacturing facilities in India. The domestic manufacturer may face competition not only in the domestic market but also with the global players with established manufacturing base like China and Southeast Asia. Hence domestic manufacturers face stiff competition from cheaper and better-quality modules imported from China. Domestic manufacturers do not enjoy economies of scale like leading Chinese suppliers. Huge supply glut in China has led to prices falling sharply across the value chain threatening competitiveness of local manufacturers despite high import duties. 7.5.6 Environmental factor The manufacturing process involves the use of materials that can generate hazardous waste. The production process involved in solar PV manufacturing, such as etching, doping, and coating, can generate greenhouse gases, volatile organic compounds, and acid gases, which can contribute to air pollution. Some of the materials used to make solar cells, such as cadmium, lead, arsenic, and selenium, are toxic and can pose health and environmental risks if not handled properly. The water consumption is also significant, especially for the production of silicon wafers, which need to be purified, cut, and polished with large amounts of water. These challenges can impact costs, operational efficiency and the overall feasibility of the project. 1678. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) 8.1 Overview of energy storage technologies Energy storage technologies can be broadly divided into four segments – mechanical, electromechanical, chemical, and thermal storage. However, only a few technologies are available on a commercial scale worldwide. Technologies such as pumped hydro storage (PHS), lithium, and sodium batteries are available commercially and are being used for different applications. Other technologies such as compressed air, flywheel, thermal and hydrogen storage, have yet to demonstrate their commercial viability at scale. Figure 37: Major types of storage technologies Source: Industry reports, Crisil Intelligence Pumped Hydro Storage Project (PHSP) is the most widely used and commercially available means of energy storage technology in India. However, the total installed capacity of PHSP is minuscule (~4% of the exploitable potential) in the country. Considering the intermittent and unpredictable nature of RE technologies, such as solar and wind technologies, efficient and economical grid operation is increasingly becoming one of the critical challenges for India’s power system. This challenge calls for solutions such as spinning reserves, flexible generation, ancillary services, transmission system augmentation & frequency control, etc. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is another form of storage technology which has gained traction in the last few years. It has a very high energy density making it appropriate to offer ancillary services. More importantly, BESS can be installed easily, requires less time for setup, and can be used for a wide range of grid support activities, such as energy time shift, distribution deferral, and energy arbitrage etc. The technology is yet to achieve its full potential to provide grid support services, and comes with high investment cost and changing technology, and therefore has associated risks. Further, batteries would require replacement or disposal after 7-10 years, depending upon usage. A comparative analysis of PHS and BESS technology is mentioned below: Table 10: Comparison of PHS and BESS Parameters PHS BESS Capital cost Total capital cost for a closed loop PSP ranges Lithium-ion battery storage can range from INR 15 - around ~INR50-60 Mn/ MW* 20 Mn/MWh Efficiency 75-80% 85-95%% Land requirement ~2,000 m2/MW ~100 m2/MW Ideal storage duration 6 – 12 hours 2-6 hours Response time 5 Min (Standstill to on-line) 30-90 seconds (On- In milliseconds line to full load) 168Parameters PHS BESS Project life 40 – 50 years (life of dam/reservoir is over 80 10- 12 years years) Construction period 4 – 5 years, it also depends upon other external 1.5 years and socio-political factors Operating cost Lower Higher since batteries need to be replaced after certain period (if longer period (>12 years) is considered) Estimated levelised tariff Rs 3.5 – 5.0 per kWh (based on project size, Rs 3.7-4.8 per kWh storage duration and site conditions) Environmental impact Need substantial reservoirs which may cause Disposal of batteries is a major concern.

Figure 38: Key policy measures for storage projects Source: MoP, MNRE, Crisil Intelligence The GoI has taken several measures such as providing legal status to storage, energy storage obligation, waiver in ISTS charges, captive status for energy stored in BESS. These measures are expected to expedite the deployment of storage systems and thereby accelerating the growth of India’s RE capacity. The initiatives taken to promote growth of energy storage technologies in India are summarised below: a) MoP issued legal status for ESS on January 2022 wherein ESS has been designated as a power system element which can be utilized as a Generator, Transmission or Distribution element. b) ESO trajectory till fiscal 2030 and bidding guidelines for BESS has been notified by MoP. 1% energy storage target in FY 2024, going up by 0.5% every year to 4% in FY 2030. However, the ESO has been removed from the RPO notification released by MoP in October 2023. c) Waiver of ISTS charges on PHS will be applicable to those Projects whose construction work would be awarded up to 30th June 2025. The waiver is applicable for a period of 25 years for PHS. The waiver of ISTS charges for BESS projects commissioned up to 30th June 2025 would be provided for a period of 12 years. d) Revised scheme for flexibility in generation and scheduling of thermal/ hydro projects through bundling with RE and storage power. e) In the amendment to Electricity Rules, 2023, GoI has allowed the energy stored in BESS to be considered for captive status. 169f) The MNRE in its RE bidding guidelines provided the option to the RE developer to tie up with energy storage system developers to meet the project parameters to provide firm and dispatchable RE power. g) In February 2025, the MoP issued an advisory requiring new solar power projects to incorporate energy storage systems to enhance grid stability and reduce power costs. The advisory, sent to state governments, central generating stations, and renewable energy agencies, mandates that all future solar tenders include co-located ESS with a minimum of two-hour storage, equivalent to 10% of the installed solar capacity. By implementing this requirement, the MoP expects to add about 14 GW/28 GWh storage capacity by 2030. h) In June 2025, the MoP issued an advisory mandating a minimum of 2-hour co-located battery storage system for new solar projects, equivalent to 10% of the installed capacity. 8.3 Large scale ESS tenders As RE penetration scales up, ESS is expected to play a critical role. In the recent past, there have been several grid scale ESS tenders including RTC, peak power supply, standalone ESS, and the recently announced firm and dispatchable renewable energy (FDRE) tenders. The table below shows the classification of ESS tenders in India. Table 11: Types of storage tenders Tender type Description RTC tender To ensure round-the-clock availability of power to the offtakers with or without storage Peak power supply To meet the power requirements of the offtakers during peak hours through a combination of RE and ESS Solar + BESS Small-scale tenders with mandatory fixed solar and BESS components Standalone ESS Fulfills on demand power requirement of the offtakers, treats “ESS as-a-service” FDRE Demand profile following ESS tenders ensuring firmness and dispatchability of renewable energy power Source: Crisil Intelligence SECI issued its first 1200 MW RE+storage tender with guaranteed peak power supply of 6 hours per day which concluded in 2020. The two bidders, Greenko (900 MW at peak tariff of ~ Rs 6.12/kWh) with pumped hydro storage and ReNew Power (300 MW at peak tariff of Rs 6.85/kWh) with BESS were awarded the project. The first FDRE tender of 1500 MW conducted by SJVN in November 2023 witnessed the lowest tariff of Rs 4.38/kWh. The first FDRE tender of 1500 MW conducted by SJVN in November 2023 witnessed the lowest tariff of Rs 4.38/kWh. Also, a few large-scale standalone ESS tenders were also issued by SECI, NTPC, GUVNL, MSEDCL in fiscal 202324. In terms of ESS technology, SECI’s tender was for BESS. However, NTPC’s tender was technology agnostic with the requirement of six hours of energy supply. JSW Energy won 500 MW in SECI’s tender. Moreover, MSEDCL has also awarded 2 GW of PHS project each to Torrent Power and JSW in September 2024 which would supply power for 8 hours per day with a maximum of 5 continuous hours. As of August 2025, ~145 GWh of standalone grid-scale ESS capacity has been tendered, of which ~20 GWh has been awarded and are under different phases of execution. A confluence of these initiatives indicates the large potential and keen interest from project developers in the ESS segment. Moreover, the results of these tenders also indicate the commercial competitiveness of ESS and RE+ESS as compared to electricity sources.

While PHS is primarily useful for long duration energy storage requirement (i.e., for 6–10 hour storage) while BESS is typically useful for shorter duration storage requirement (2-4 hours). Hence, both the technologies have their unique requirements and use cases. 8.4 Major players in pumped storage and BESS technology Major RE developers such as ReNew, Greenko, Acme, and JSW are aggressively adopting ESS. ReNew won two ESS tenders (Peak Power Supply, RTC-1). Greenko is developing ESS through PHS. It is developing Integrated Renewable Energy Storage Projects (IRESP) in Andhra Pradesh combining GW scale wind, solar and PHS power. Figure 39: Major players and their share in BESS/PHS based projects as of July 2025 Source: CEA, SECI, Bidding agencies, Crisil Intelligence 171Greenko has the highest share in terms of capacity awarded under energy storage projects. It has won 2.1 GW under tariff based competitive bidding conducted by SECI, PCKL and NTPC. According to CEA’s status report on PHS development as of July 2025, a cumulative capacity of ~15.6 GW has been allotted to Greenko in the states of Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Uttar Pradesh. Other players such as Adani Green Energy, JSW, Torrent Power are cumulatively developing ~27 GW of PHSPs. Further, the developers who won RTC, peak power, FDRE tenders under competitive bidding route such as ReNew, Acme, Tata Power, Bluepine, O2 Power, NTPC are deploying BESS to meet the power requirements of their respective off-takers as indicated in the RfP.

This is expected to significant RE capacity additions by 2030. However, the increasing penetration of variable RE into the grid has risks with respect to grid stability and resilience. Energy storage will play an important role in ensuring the firmness and sustainable growth of RE in the electricity mix. PHSPs are likely to play a vital gridscale storage solution in India for the next 5-7 years led by low cost, large scale, and no reliance on international supply chains. Usage of battery storage is expected to be strong across the generation, transmission, and distribution segments as well as at the consumer end. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory has also forecasted a fall in the price of storage solutions, especially lithium-ion technology. With the greater adoption of lithium-ion battery storage, improvement in battery efficiency, and large- scale manufacturing, Crisil Intelligence projects installation costs for utility-scale lithium-ion batteries to fall to $ 75 to $ 85 per kWh by Fiscal 2030 from $ 110 to $ 115 in Fiscal 2025. With the announcement of several large-scale PHS projects across the country, the PHS segment is also expected to witness significant adoption. The current installed capacity of ESS as of 30 June 2025 is 6.65 GW which includes 6.45 GW of PSPs and 0.20 GW of BESS Projects. According to the CEA’s National Electricity Plan (Volume II – Transmission), India’s generation capacity will need around 47 GW of BESS and 31 GW Pumped Storage Projects by fiscal 2032. 8.5.1 Key driving factors for adoption of ESS in India RE capacity addition: GoI has set an ambitious target of 450 GW of RE capacity addition by 2030. Such high quantum, variability, and intermittent nature of RE will drive installation of energy storage in India. Demand profile: During non-solar peak periods, additional generation and ramping requirements are high. Further, the projected peak load growth and the expanding disparity between peak and base demand will necessitate sufficient capacity expansion and adoption of storage-based generation technologies. Additionally, energy storage will also help in addressing ramping requirements as well as providing capacity during non-solar hours. Regulatory and Policy Support: The GoI has placed emphasis on developing BESS and PHS capacity to improve grid operations. In April 2023, the MoP issued guidelines and incentives for the PHS project to catalyse the growth of the PHS 172market. Other policy support to ESS includes transmission charges waiver, inclusion of ESO, VGF scheme for BESS, among others. Storage duration: PHS offers energy storage of 6 to 12 hours, which is significantly longer than BESS. Thus, PHS is well suited for energy-shifting applications, wherein excess RE generation can be shifted to peak demand periods of late evenings. On the other hand, a single BESS can be used for multiple applications such as voltage and frequency regulation, spinning reserves, peak shaving. Maturity of technology: Pumped storage is a proven technology and has been in use for decades to support/balance grids. Unlike other storage technologies, performance of PHS is quite reliable on long term basis. With the evolution in BESS technology and falling costs, its adoption will also see an improvement. Self-sufficiency of domestic equipment: PHS project infrastructure is similar to a hydropower plant. Thus, with India already having a significant presence in hydropower, most PHS project components can be sourced locally. This is in high contrast to BESS, wherein battery cells, a key project component, still need to be almost wholly imported. However, with capacities awarded under the PLI scheme for advanced chemical cell battery storage, share of indigenous solutions would increase. Economical: PHS is a cost-effective ESS technology due to a significantly longer project life (40 to 50 years) as compared to other ESS technologies. For BESS solutions too, with rising R&D and subsequent improvement in technology as well as increasing scale, cost competitiveness of such solutions to improve. Availability of finance: The long project life of PHS has the potential to provide a stable and consistent cash inflow for about 40 years. This healthy cash-flow profile enables favourable project financing arrangements for PHS, such as lower loan rates and a higher debt-equity ratio. Sustainable: With long useful life (more than 40 years for plant and equipment and more than 80-100 years for Dam), PHS provide long term solution. Since it involves only the flow of water (uphill & downhill), it has relatively minimal environmental impact. For batteries, a special consideration is degradation. Batteries degrade as they age, decreasing the amount of capacity they can store. The expected life of the batteries is about 10 to 15 years (depending on the technology and how the batteries are operated). By the end of that time, the batteries’ capacity is expected to be reduced to less than 70% of their original capacity. Furthermore, the MoEF&CC has issued Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022 to ensure proper collection and recycling/refurbishment of waste batteries and use of recovered materials from wastes into new batteries. This will ensure environmentally sound management of waste batteries. 1739.

Key challenges/threats 10.1 Key challenges and threats impacting renewable energy sector 10.1.1 Threats Any adverse shift in government policies, including reductions in incentives or changes in energy regulations, can significantly impact Solarworld’s revenue and profitability. However, considering the COP commitment, climate change ambitions and government push for RE, the chances of drastic changes in regulatory regime are less likely. This can also be ascertained from the fact that as against capacity addition of ~104 GW of RE, only ~14 GW of conventional capacity (incl. 2 GW of nuclear) is added over the last 5 years (July 2020-July 2025). There were some delays in signing PSAs having higher tariffs by Discoms due to declining tariffs in subsequent tenders. However, with government's plan for stricter adherence to RPOs, higher penalty in case of non-compliance, and revision of tariff in manufacturing-linked tenders, PSA signing activity improved during fiscal 2022 onwards. There are only few states which are complying with the RPO obligations fully and there has been limited enforcement on obligated entities - discoms and open access and captive power users - to meet RPO targets. Proposed amendment to Electricity Act, 2003 has stipulated a penalty on RPO non-compliance and uniform imposition of penalties and strict enforcement would be critical for significant improvement and fair distribution of RPO compliance across states. The solar power industry is currently facing cost pressures on account of volatility in module prices, exchange rates, freight, and commodity prices. This may impact the EPC margin of Solarworld as it may not be able to pass on the cost increase to SPVs. The RE sector including solar EPC is highly competitive, with numerous players vying for market share. There is competition from global and regional solar EPC providers. Established competitors along with capable new entrants can pose challenges. The solar EPC industry is also highly fragmented and has been tending towards increased consolidation in recent years. Climate change and extreme weather events can affect the performance and reliability of renewable energy systems, potentially leading to disruptions or damage to infrastructure. Further, economic downturns and financial instability can reduce capital available and increase costs for renewable energy investments, affecting Solarworld’s expansion plans. 10.1.2 Challenges There is counterparty credit risk due to the depleted financial position of most Discoms. Due to legacy issues, higher T&D losses, lack of adequate tariff revisions, lack of timely subsidy support, operational challenges, financial position in most of the State Discoms is weak. However, with competitive tariffs, payment security mechanism, diversification in counter parties largely mitigates the counterparty credit risk. Further, execution risk in under construction projects may impact profitability and in turn liquidity. During monsoon/rainy season, EPC players may not be able to execute projects due to site accessibility, waterlogging etc. which can affect their revenue during the said period. However, with in-house EPC expertise and experience in execution of large-scale projects should mitigate this risk. Furthermore, availability of contiguous land and acquisition challenges associated with land parcels are some of the key challenges that developers are facing. To acquire large tracts of land in a single resourceful location, many stakeholders have to be involved, which slows down the pace of project execution. The 40 GW solar park scheme, which provides land to successful bidders for setting up of the projects, is facilitative in this aspect. Availability of timely transmission connectivity is another challenge. To optimize costs, utilization levels, and losses associated with the transmission system, it is crucial to have robust transmission planning. Concerns about connectivity for renewable projects have been raised by the various stakeholders at the appropriate levels. Nodal agencies (PGCIL and SECI) have planned various schemes to reduce grid congestion and enhance connectivity, taking this into account. Green Energy Corridor Scheme and Renewable Energy Zones expected to add ~80 GW of transmission grid capacity taking it to more than 100 GW for RE projects. This will give comfort against the planned capacity additions in renewable energy segment. 184OUR BUSINESS Unless otherwise stated, references in this section to “we”, “our” or “us” (including in the context of any financial information) are to the Company along with our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associate, on a consolidated basis and references to our “Company” refers to Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited on a standalone basis.

Overview We are engaged in providing solar energy solutions, specialising in engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services for solar power projects. We commenced our operations in 2013, offering comprehensive, end to end and cost-effective solutions for the installation of solar power projects tailored to our customers’ needs, which comprise public sector undertakings (“PSUs”) and commercial and industrial clients (“C&I Clients”). Our business operations are supported by our strong execution capabilities, which is demonstrated by the projects which have achieved their commercial operation date (“Completed Projects”) and our projects for which we have received orders or are currently under execution (“Ongoing Projects”). As on July 31, 2025, we have Completed Projects with a total capacity of 253.67 megawatts (“MW”) AC/ 336.17 MW DC, and Ongoing Projects with a capacity of 765 MW AC / 994 MW DC for EPC and 325 MW/650 MWh for BESS. Our solutions are designed to strengthen our customers sustainable energy infrastructure, supporting their decarbonization efforts and driving energy efficiency improvements. We offer these solutions through two distinct models namely the capital expenditure (“CAPEX”) model and the renewable energy service company (“RESCO”) model. Under the CAPEX model, we provide end-to-end solutions by designing, installing, setting up and commissioning the solar power projects on a turn-key basis for our customers, while the ownership of the solar power projects vests with the customer itself. The scope of our services ranges from the evaluation of land, designing of the project, procurement of raw material and components, installation of equipment, setup of the transmission infrastructure and the maintenance/operation of the project for the contracted period. Under the RESCO model, the power purchaser is not required to make any capital investment for the solar power project, allowing them to reduce their carbon footprint without upfront expenditure. The investment under this model includes land acquisition, equipment procurement and installation, and obtaining necessary regulatory and statutory approvals from local 185authorities. We install, own and operate the solar power projects, with our customers purchasing the generated power at fixed tariffs agreed upon through long-term power purchase agreements (“PPAs”). Under the CAPEX and RESCO models, we also provide operations and maintenance (“O&M”) services depending on the requirements of our customers. These services are designed to provide forward-integrated, full life-cycle support, ensuring the long-term performance and reliability of solar power. A majority of our EPC projects (approximately 95% as on March 31, 2025) have our bundled O&M services for a period ranging from two to five years. For further details, refer to “– Our Business Operations – O&M” on page 201. Under both the CAPEX and RESCO models, solar power projects are broadly categorized into ground-mounted projects and rooftop projects, catering to different customer needs and site conditions. For further details about our service offerings and our operations, please see “- Our Business Operations” on page 199.

Competition The solar EPC and O&M markets are highly competitive, and our competitors include global and regional solar EPC and O&M service providers. The solar EPC and O&M industries are also highly fragmented but has been trending towards increased consolidation in recent years. The O&M market in India for solar power is expanding in the tandem with the country’s installed capacity which has reached ~ 119 GW as of July 31, 2025. Out of the total O&M market ~ 45% is the share of third-party O&M, therefore ~ 50-55 GW is total addressable market for this business. This has spurred demand for the comprehensive O&M services to ensure the optimal performance, reliability and the efficiency of the solar plants. Effective O&M practices are essential for maintaining the health of solar installations, minimizing downtime, and maximizing the energy yield.

The information detailed below has been obtained from various legislations, including rules and regulations promulgated by regulatory bodies that are available in the public domain. The overview set out below is not exhaustive and is only intended to provide general information, and is neither designed, nor intended, to be a substitute for professional legal advice. For details of government approvals obtained by our Company in compliance with these regulations, please see the section titled “Government and Other Approvals” on page 403. The statements below are based on the current provisions of Indian law, which are subject to change or modification by subsequent legislative, regulatory, administrative or judicial decisions. Industry specific laws The Electricity Act, 2003 (“Electricity Act”) The Electricity Act is a central legislation and provides for, inter alia, generation, transmission, distribution, trading and use of electricity. Under the Electricity Act, the transmission, distribution, and trade of electricity are regulated activities which require licenses from the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (“CERC”), the State Electricity Regulatory Commissions (“SERCS”) or a joint commission (constituted by an agreement entered into between two or more state governments or the central government in relation to one or more state governments, as the case may be). The generating company is required to establish, operate and maintain generating stations, tie-lines, sub-stations and dedicated transmission lines. Further, the generating company may supply electricity to any licensee or even directly to consumers, subject to availing open access to the transmission and distribution systems and payment of transmission charges, including wheeling charges and open access charges, as may be determined by the relevant electricity regulatory commission. In terms of the Electricity Act, open access means the non- discriminatory provision for the use of transmission lines or distribution system or associated facilities with such lines or system, by any licensee or consumer or a person engaged in generation in accordance with the regulations specified by the relevant electricity regulatory commission. Under the Electricity Rules, 2005, as amended, if the captive generating plant is established by an affiliate company, the captive user must hold no less than 51% of the ownership in that affiliate company. Under the Electricity Act, the appropriate commission, guided by, inter alia, the methodologies specified by the CERC with the aim of promotion of co-generation and generation of electricity from renewable sources of energy, shall specify the terms and conditions for the determination of tariff. The SERCs under the Electricity Act are also required to promote co-generation and generation of electricity from renewable sources of energy by providing suitable measures for connectivity with the grid and sale of electricity to any person, and also specify, for purchase of electricity from such sources, a percentage of the total consumption of electricity in the area of a distribution license. The Electricity Act requires the GOI to prepare the national electricity policy and tariff policy, from time to time, in consultation with the state governments and Central Electricity Authority. The Electricity (Amendment) Rules, 2022 (“EAA”) has amended certain provisions of the Electricity Act. Among others, EAA has amended that on the issuance of license to more than one distribution licensee in an area of supply, the power and associated costs from the existing power purchase agreements with the existing distribution licensee, as on the date of issuing license to another distribution licensee, shall be shared among all the distribution licensees in the area of supply as specified by the State Commission. Further, in case of distribution of electricity in the same area of supply by two or more distribution licensees, the appropriate Commission, for promoting competition among such distribution licensees, will fix the maximum ceiling of tariff and the minimum tariff for retail sale of electricity. The EAA also provides that a distribution licensee may use distribution systems of other licensees in the area of supply for supplying power through the system of non-discriminatory open access on payment of wheeling charges. Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and Conditions for Tariff Determination from Renewable Energy Sources) Regulations, 2020 (“Tariff Regulations”) The Tariff Regulations prescribe the criteria that may be taken into consideration by the CERC while determining the tariff for the sale of electricity generated from renewable energy sources. The CERC shall determine project specific tariff for solar PV power projects, based on financial principles such as, inter alia, debt equity ratio, loan tenure and interest on loan, interest on working capital and any incentive, grant or subsidy from the Central or State Government. Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and Conditions for Tariff Determination from Renewable Energy Sources) Regulations, 2017 (“Tariff Regulations”) The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission has announced the Tariff Regulations, which prescribes the criteria that may be taken into consideration by the relevant electricity regulatory commissions while determining the tariff for the sale of electricity generated from renewable energy sources which include, inter alia, return on equity, interest on loan and working capital, operations and maintenance expenses, cost of capital and depreciation. Pursuant to the National Tariff Policy, the CERC is required to determine the rate of return on equity which may be adopted by the relevant electricity regulatory commissions 212to determine the generic tariff, keeping in view the overall risk and prevalent cost of capital, which factors are also to be taken into consideration by relevant electricity regulatory commissions while determining the tariff rate. The Tariff Regulations prescribe that the normative return on equity will be 14%, to be grossed up by the prevailing Minimum Alternate Tax (“MAT”) as on April 1st of the previous year for the entire useful life of the project. The Tariff Regulations also provide the mechanism for sharing of carbon credits from approved clean development mechanism projects between renewable energy generating companies and the concerned beneficiaries. Under the Tariff Regulations, the project developer is entitled to retain 100% of the gross proceeds on account of clean development mechanism project benefit in the first year after the date of commercial operation of the generating station. Subsequently, in the second year, the share of the beneficiaries will then be progressively increased by 10% every year until it reaches 50% after which the clean development mechanism project proceeds are to be shared equally between the generating company and the beneficiaries. The Draft Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and Conditions for Tariff Determination from Renewable Energy Sources) Regulations, 2020 (“Draft Tariff Regulations”) was proposed by the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission to regulate the revised tariff of Generating Companies which are based on renewable sources of energy. Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Sharing of Inter-State Transmission Charges and Losses) Regulations, 2020 On May 4, 2020, the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission issued the CERC (Sharing of Inter-State Transmission Charges and Losses) Regulations, 2020. The purpose of these regulations is to ensure that transmission charges are fully covered, thereby minimizing power losses during interstate transmission. These regulations apply to all designated ISTS customers, Inter-state transmission licensees, the national load dispatch centre, regional load dispatch centres, state load dispatch centres, and regional power committees. Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Deviation Settlement Mechanism and Related Matters) Regulations, 2022 The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Deviation Settlement Mechanism and Related Matters) Regulations, 2022 (“DSM Regulations, 2022”), which came into effect on 05th December 2022. The DSM Regulations, 2022 have been pivotal in maintaining grid discipline and security, in line with the objectives outlined in the grid code. These regulations establish a commercial mechanism for Deviation Settlement, detailing penalties for both over-injections and under-injections of electricity. Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Connectivity and General Network Access to the Inter-State Transmission System) Regulations, 2022 The CERC (Connectivity and General Network Access to the Inter-State Transmission System) Regulations, 2022 have been introduced in alignment with the ‘One Nation, One Grid’ concept. These regulations ensure non-discriminatory access to the central transmission network for all power producers. When seeking access, power producers need only specify the capacity and the time block during which this capacity will be transmitted. Central Electricity Regulatory Commission Power Market Regulations 2021 The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission has notified the CERC (Power Market) Regulations, 2021, which came into effect on August 15, 2021. These regulations apply to Power Exchanges, market participants other than Power Exchanges, and the OTC Market. Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Indian Electricity Grid Code) Regulations, 2023 The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission issued the CERC (Indian Electricity Grid Code) Regulations, 2023 which came into effect on October 1, 2023. These regulations aim to promote a stable, reliable, and secure grid while achieving maximum economy and efficiency in grid operations and the power system. Draft National Renewable Energy Act, 2015 (“Draft NRE Act”) The Draft NRE Act has been formulated by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (“MNRE”) with the aim to promote the production of energy through use of renewable energy sources. The Draft NRE Act seeks to provide a framework to facilitate and promote the use of renewable energy. It aims to address issues with respect to renewable energy such as the principles of grid planning and operation and the concept of national targets and its compliance by utilities. It proposes the creation of a framework for governance of renewable energy at the national and state level by creating a national renewable energy committee and a national renewable energy advisory group. It also requires states to establish a state-level implementing agency responsible for implementing renewable projects. The Draft NRE Act would require the MNRE to prepare and publish a national renewable energy policy in consultation with the state governments, from time to time, to formulate and implement a state level renewable energy policy, and renewable energy plan taking into consideration the applicable national renewable energy policy and national renewable energy plan. 213Among other things, the Draft NRE Act proposes to empower the GoI and State Governments to establish national renewable energy funds and state green funds, respectively, to meet the expenses incurred for implementing the national renewable energy policy and national renewable energy plan. Further, unlike the Electricity Act, no license is required for supply of electricity, if generated from renewable energy sources under the provisions of the Draft NRE Act. The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (“MNRE”) The MNRE is the nodal ministry of the Government of India at the national level for all matters relating to nonconventional sources of energy and renewable energy. The mandate of MNRE includes research, development, commercialisation and deployment of renewable energy systems or devices for various applications in rural, urban, industrial and commercial sector. Electricity (Promoting Renewable Energy Through Green Energy Open Access) Rules, 2022 (“Electricity Rules 2022”) The Ministry of Power (“MoP”) has notified the Electricity Rules 2022 on June 6, 2022. The Electricity Rules 2022 provide for generation, purchase and consumption of green energy, including the energy from waste-to-energy plants. It provides in detail for renewable purchase obligation (RPO), green energy open access, nodal agencies, procedure for the grant of green energy open access, green certificate, banking, charges to be levied on open access and cross-subsidy surcharge. It also provides for tariff for green energy which shall be determined by the appropriate commission. It shall comprise of the average pooled power purchase cost of the renewable energy, cross-subsidy charges, if any, and service charges covering the prudent cost of distribution licensee for providing the green energy. These rules have streamlined the overall approval process for granting open access. Time bound processing by bringing uniformity and transparency in the application as well as approval of open access through a national portal had been mandated. Further, the MoP, notified the Electricity (Promoting Renewable Energy through Green Energy Open Access) Amendment Rules, 2023 on January 27, 2023, applicable on generation, purchase and consumption of green energy including waste-to- energy plants. It provides details for renewable purchase obligation (“RPO”), green energy open access, nodal agencies, procedure for the grant of green energy open access, banking and cross- subsidy surcharge. It also provides for tariff for green energy which shall be determined by the appropriate commission. Remission of Duties and Taxes on Export Products Scheme (“RoDTEP Scheme”) Prior to January 1, 2021, the Merchandise Exports from India Scheme (“MEIS”) was in force pursuant to which, the Government provided duty benefits depending on the product and the country of export. However, the Ministry of Finance, GoI has discontinued MEIS with effect from January 1, 2021 and announced RoDTEP Scheme for exporters. RoDTEP Scheme aims to ensure that exporters receive the refunds on the embedded taxes and duties that were previously non-recoverable. The benefits under the RoDTEP Scheme are to be received in the form of transferable duty credit scrips, or in the form of electronic scrips. The RoDTEP Scheme allows the exporter to utilise the scrips for the payment of import duty or to sell such duty credit scrips in the open market to other importers subject to the terms of the RoDTEP Scheme.

Renewable purchase obligations The Electricity Act promotes the development of renewable sources of energy by requiring the relevant electricity regulatory commission to ensure grid connectivity and the sale of electricity generated from renewable sources. In addition, it requires the relevant electricity regulatory commission to specify, for the purchase of electricity from renewable sources, a percentage of the total consumption of electricity within the area of a distribution licensee, which are known as renewable purchase obligations (“RPOs”). Pursuant to this mandate, most of the relevant electricity regulatory commission have specified solar and non-solar RPOs in their respective states. In terms of the RPO regulations, RPOs are required to be met by obligated entities (that is, distribution licensees, captive power plants and open access consumers) by purchasing renewable energy, either by entering into PPAs with renewable energy power producers or by purchasing renewable energy certificates. Pursuant to the order dated June 14, 2018 (no. 23/03/2016-R&R) issued by the Ministry of Power, Government of India (the “MoP”), the MoP has notified the long-term growth trajectory of renewable purchase obligations for solar and non-solar, uniformly for all states/Union Territories for a period of three years i.e., Fiscal 2020 to 2022. This long-term growth trajectory has also been revised to include Large Hydropower Projects commissioned after March 8, 2019 pursuant to an order dated January 29, 2021 by the Ministry of Power, Government of India. Subsequently, the MoP, through an order dated July 22, 2022 (F. No. 09/13/2021-RCM) notified the renewable purchase trajectory for a period of 8 years i.e., Fiscal 2023 to Fiscal 2030. It includes trajectory for wind renewable purchase obligations, hydro power renewable purchase obligations and other renewable purchase obligations. Renewable Energy Certificates Regulations (“REC Regulations”) The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission notified the REC Regulations on May 9, 2022 which has been amended from time to time. REC Regulations was enacted to develop the market in electricity from non-conventional energy sources by issuance of transferable and saleable credit certificates (“REC Mechanism”). The REC Mechanism provides a market based instrument which can be traded freely and provides means for fulfilment of RPOs by the distribution utilities/consumers. Under the REC Regulations, there are two categories of certificates, i.e. solar certificates issued to eligible entities for generation of electricity based on solar as renewable energy source and non-solar certificates issued to eligible entities for generation of electricity based on renewable energy sources other than solar. The REC Regulations determine the quantum of such certificates to be issued to the eligible entities and the method of dealing in the certificates. The National Load Despatch Centre is the central agency which oversees the REC Mechanism, including, inter alia, registration of eligible entities, issuance of certificates, maintaining and settling accounts in respect of certificates, acting as repository of transactions in certificates and such related functions of the REC Mechanism as may be assigned by the CERC. There are certain conditions which are now imposed on electricity generating company, distribution licensee and captive generation plant to be eligible to apply for REC. It is envisaged that REC Regulations would address the concerns raised by stakeholders during the operational experience of last one decade and would bring required flexibility in the renewable energy certificates market. Under the REC Regulations, National Load Despatch Centre (“NLDC”) would continue to be the central agency for the REC Mechanism and would act a repository for transactions of certificates along with responsibility of registration of eligible entities and issuance of certificates. The NLDC would be responsible for various functions such as, registration of eligible entities, issuance of certificates, maintaining and settling account for certificates, acting as repository of certificate transactions, maintaining registry and 216carrying out any other function that may be assigned by the commission from time to time for smooth and effective implementation of REC Mechanism. National Electricity Policy The GoI approved the National Electricity Policy on February 12, 2005, in accordance with the provisions of the Electricity Act.

Corporate Information Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) (‘the Company’ or the ‘Holding Company’) is a Public Limited Company domiciled in India & was incorporated on July 17, 2013, under the provisions of Companies Act-1956 (the ‘Act’) applicable in India. The registered office of the Company is located at 501, Padma Palace ,86, Nehru Place, South Delhi, New Delhi-110019, India. The Company is principally engaged in the business of solar power plant set up, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) etc. The Holding Company, together with its subsidiaries (hereinafter, the 'Group') and its associate and its joint ventures, is primarily engaged in the business of solar power plant set up, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC), solar accessories, and undertakes related construction/project related activities. Refer note 49 for entities considered in consolidation. The Holding Company has been converted from Private Limited Company to Public Limited Company, pursuant to a special resolution passed in the extraordinary general meeting (‘EGM’) of the shareholders of the Holding Company held on August 24, 2024, and consequently the name of the Holding Company has been changed to Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited which was formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited pursuant to a fresh certificate of incorporation issued by the Registrar of Companies on September 23, 2024. These restated consolidated financial information were approved in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on September 03, 2025. 2. Basis of preparation, measurement and material accounting policies A. Statement of compliance and basis of preparation The restated consolidated financial information comprises the restated consolidated statement of assets and liabilities as at March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss including other comprehensive income, the restated consolidated statement of changes in equity and the restated consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2025 and for the years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, and the summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory note (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Restated Consolidated Financial Information”). The restated consolidated financial information of the Group and its associates and its joint ventures has been specifically prepared for inclusion in the Red Herring Prospectus (the "RHP") to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (“SEBI”) in connection with the proposed Initial Public Offer of equity shares (“IPO”) of the Company (referred to as the “Issuer”). These restated consolidated financial information have been prepared by the management of the Holding Company to comply with the requirements of: (i) Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Act; (ii) Relevant provisions of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018, issued by SEBI on 11 September 2018 in pursuance of the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992; 275Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information (iii) The Guidance Note on Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”), as amended from time to time (the “Guidance Note”). The Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been compiled by the Management from: a. the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group and its associate and its joint ventures as at and for the year ended March 31, 2025 prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS') as notified by Ministry of Corporate Affairs ('MCA') under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act, which have been approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on August 06, 2025. b. Audited consolidated financial statements of the Group and its associate and its joint venture as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024 prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards, as prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015, as amended (referred to as “Ind As”), and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, which have been approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on September 16, 2024. c. Audited special purpose consolidated financial statements of the Group and its associate and its joint venture as at and for the year ended March 31, 2023 prepared in accordance with the Ind As notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended, to the extent applicable, and the presentation requirements of the Companies Act, 2013 which were prepared by the management of the Company and were approved for issue in accordance with the resolution passed by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on September 25, 2024. Pursuant to the Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Second Amendment Rules, 2015, the Company has voluntarily adopted March 31, 2024, as reporting date for first time adoption of Ind-AS – notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time) and consequently April 01, 2021, is the transition date for preparation of its financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024. Hence, the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024, were the first financials, prepared in accordance with Ind-AS. Upto the financial year ended March 31, 2023, the Company had prepared its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting standards notified under the section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021 (“Indian GAAP” or “Previous GAAP”) due to which the special purpose consolidated financial statements are prepared for the purpose of filing Red Herring Prospectus (the "RHP"). Further, this special purpose consolidated financial statements are not the statutory consolidated financial statements under the Act. The special purpose consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2023 have been prepared after making suitable adjustments to the accounting heads from their Indian GAAP values following accounting policies and accounting policy choices (both mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind As 101) consistent with that used at the date of transition to Ind As (April 01, 2021) and as per the presentation, accounting policies and grouping/classifications including Revised Schedule III disclosures followed as at and for year ended March 31, 2024. The special purpose consolidated financial statements referred to above have been prepared solely for the purpose of preparation of restated consolidated financial information for inclusion in RHP in relation to 276Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information proposed IPO. Hence, this special purpose consolidated financial statements are not suitable for any other purpose other than for the purpose of preparation of restated consolidated financial information. Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy thereto in use. The restated consolidated financial information are prepared on going concern, accrual and historical cost basis except for the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value: • Defined benefit plans-plan assets measured at fair value. • Certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value The Group and its associate and its joint ventures has prepared the restated consolidated financial information on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. B. Functional & presentational currency The restated consolidated financial information has been presented in Indian Rupees (Rs. or INR), which is also the Group’s functional currency. All amounts have been rounded-off to the nearest millions and decimals thereof, unless otherwise mentioned. C. Basis of consolidation The restated consolidated financial information incorporates the consolidated financial statements of the Holding Company and its subsidiaries, associate and its joint ventures. Control is achieved where the Group: a) has power over the investee b) is exposed to, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and c) has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. The Group reassess 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 listed above. Consolidation of subsidiaries begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiaries and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiaries. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiaries. Consolidation procedure: Subsidiaries a) Combine items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent with those of its subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiaries are based on the amounts of the assets and liabilities recognized in the restated consolidated financial information at the acquisition date. 277Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information b) Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiaries and the parent’s portion of equity of each subsidiaries. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill. c) Eliminate in full intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between entities of the Group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are recognized in assets, such as inventory and fixed assets, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the restated consolidated financial information. Ind As 12 Income Taxes applies to temporary differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting from intragroup transactions. d) The interest of non-controlling shareholders is initially measured either at fair value or at the non- controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’ share of subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Group and to the non-controlling interests. The total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Group and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Associate Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. This is generally the case where the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting (see below), after initially being recognized at cost. Joint ventures Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method (see below), after initially being recognized at cost in the restated consolidated statement of assets and liabilities. Equity method a) The Group’s investments in its associate and its joint venture are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment in an associate and its joint ventures is initially recognized at cost. Goodwill relating to the associate and its joint ventures is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment individually. The statement of profit and loss reflects the Group’s share of the results of operations of the associate and its joint ventures. The aggregate of the Group’s share of profit or loss of an associate and its joint ventures is shown on the face of the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss. b) If an entity’s share of losses of an associate and joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate and its joint venture (which includes any long term interest that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate and its joint venture), the entity discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. 278Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information c) Upon loss of significant influence over the associate and its joint venture, the Group measures and recognizes any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss. Changes in ownership interests The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognized within equity. When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss of control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. If the ownership interest in a joint venture or an associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate. D. Current vs non-current classifications The Group presents assets and liabilities in the restated consolidated financial information based on current / non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria: a) it is expected to be realized in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Group’s normal operating cycle. b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; c) it is expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting date; or d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria: a) it is expected to be settled in the Group’s normal operating cycle; b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; c) it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date; or the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Terms of liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification. 279Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information All other liabilities are classified as non-current. The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current only. Material accounting policies: E. Business combination Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition related costs are recognized in restated consolidated statement of profit and loss as incurred at the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired, and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non- controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. F. Goodwill Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognized for non-controlling interests, and any previous interest held over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognized at the acquisition date. If the reassessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognized in OCI and accumulated in equity as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the entity recognizes the gain directly in equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through OCI. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units or Group’s of cash-generating units that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognized in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. 280Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information G. Use of estimates, assumptions and judgements The preparation of the restated consolidated financial information in conformity with Ind As requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the restated consolidated financial information and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Accounting estimates could change from year to year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the restated consolidated financial information in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the restated consolidated financial information. H. Fair value measurement Certain accounting policies and disclosures of the Group 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 categorized 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 categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. I. Revenue recognition Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. When a performance obligation is satisfied, the revenue is measured at the transaction price which is consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates after taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. When another party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, the Group determines whether the nature of its promise is a performance obligation to provide the specified goods or services itself (i.e., the Group is a principal) or to arrange for the other party to provide those goods or services (i.e., the Group is an agent). When the Group considers itself as a principal and satisfies its performance. 281Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information Obligation in a given arrangement, the Group recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services transferred. When the Group considers itself as an agent and satisfies its performance obligation in a given arrangement, the Group recognizes revenue in the amount of any fee or commission to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for arranging for the other party to provide its goods or services. The Group’s fee or commission is the net amount of consideration that the Group retains after paying the other party the consideration received in exchange for the goods or services to be provided by that party. The Group derives revenues primarily from sale of solar modules, solar cells, solar accessories and construction/project related activity, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) and operation and maintenance. Revenue from sale of goods Revenue is recognized at point of time when the control of the same is transferred to the customer and it is probable that the Group will collect the consideration to which it is entitled for the exchanged goods The point at which control passes is determined based on the terms and conditions by each customer arrangement. Revenue from construction/project related activity Contract revenue is recognized over time to the extent of performance obligation satisfied and control is transferred to the customer. Contract revenue is recognized at an allocable transaction price which represents the cost of work performed on the contract plus proportionate margin, using the percentage of completion method. Percentage of completion is the proportion of cost of work performed to date, to the total estimated contract costs. With respect to contracts, where the outcome of the performance obligation cannot be reasonably measured, but the costs incurred towards satisfaction of performance obligation are expected to be recovered, the revenue is recognized only to the extent of costs incurred. Revenue from operation and maintenance Revenue from operation & maintenance is recognized as the proportion of the total year of services contract that has elapsed at the end of the reporting year. For contracts where the aggregate of contract cost incurred to date plus recognized profits (or minus recognized losses as the case may be) exceeds the progress billing, the surplus is shown as contract asset and termed as “Unbilled revenue”. For contracts where progress billing exceeds the aggregate of contract costs incurred to-date plus recognized profits (or minus recognized losses, as the case may be), the surplus is shown as contract liability and termed as unearned revenue (“excess of billing over revenue”). Amounts received before the related work is performed are disclosed in the Balance Sheet as contract liability and termed as “Advances from customer”. The amounts billed on the customer for work performed and are unconditionally due for payment i.e. only passage of time is required before payment falls due, are disclosed in the balance sheet as trade receivables. The amount of retention money held by the customers pending completion of performance milestone is disclosed as part of contract asset and is reclassified as trade receivables when it becomes due for payment. 282Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information Contract balances: (i) Contract liabilities A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or the amount is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognized when the payment is made, or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Group performs under the contract. (ii) Trade receivables A receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i .e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). (iii) Contract assets A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to customer. If the Group performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognized for the earned consideration that is conditional. J. Other income Interest income on bank deposits and loan is accrued on a time proportion basis by reference to the principal outstanding and the effective interest rate. Other items of income are accounted as and when the right to receive arises and it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. K. Property, plant and equipment i) Recognition and measurement Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses if any, cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates, any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working condition for its intended use and estimated costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Property, plant and equipment not ready for the intended use on the date of balance sheet are disclosed as “Capital work-in-progress”. Such items are classified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Advances given towards acquisition/construction of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date are disclosed as capital advances under “Other non-current assets”. Capital work-in-progress includes cost of property, plant and equipment under installation / under development as at the balance sheet date 283Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information ii) Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other expenses on existing fixed assets, including day-to-day repair and maintenance expenditure and cost of replacing parts, are charged to the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss for the period during which such expenses are incurred. iii) Depreciation and useful lives Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of Property, plant and equipment which coincide with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Estimated useful life of the assets is given below: Tangible assets Useful life Plant and equipment 8-15 Years Furniture and fixtures 10 Years Office equipment 5 Years Computers 3 Years Motor vehicles 8-10 Years iv) Gain and loss on disposal of item of property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are eliminated from restated consolidated financial information, either on disposal or when retired from active use. Losses/gains arising in case retirement/disposals of property, plant and equipment are recognized in the restated statement of profit and loss in the year of occurrence. v) Residual values The Group’s reviews the residual value, useful lives and depreciation method annually and, if expectations differ from previous estimates, the change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate on a prospective basis. L. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. a) Raw materials, components, construction materials, stores, spares and loose tools: cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on ‘First in First Out’ (“FIFO”) method. b) Cost of finished goods include cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on the normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. Cost is determined on ‘First in First Out’ (“FIFO”) method. c) Cost of traded goods include purchase cost and inward freight. Costs are determined on ‘First in First Out’ (“FIFO”) method. 284Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information Assessment of net realizable value is made at each reporting period end and when the circumstances that previously caused inventories to be written-down below cost no longer exist or when there is clear evidence of an increase in net realizable value because of changed economic circumstances, the write- down, if any, in the past period is reversed to the extent of the original amount written-down so that the resultant carrying amount is the lower of the cost and the revised net realizable value M. Financial instruments Financial assets and/or financial liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes party to a contract embodying the related financial instruments. All financial assets, financial liabilities and financial guarantee contracts are initially measured at fair value excepting for trade receivables not containing a significant financing component are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from as the case may be, the fair value of such financial assets or liabilities, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in profit or loss. In case of funding to subsidiaries companies in the form of interest free or concession loans and preference shares, the excess of the actual amount of the funding over initially measured fair value is accounted as an equity investment. A financial asset and a financial liability is offset and presented on net basis in the balance sheet when there is a current legally enforceable right to set-off the recognized amounts and it is intended to either settle on net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities is described below. I. Financial assets Classification and subsequent measurement for the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition: (i) Financial assets at amortized cost – a financial instrument is measured at amortized cost if both the following conditions are met: The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. (ii)Financial assets at fair value Investments in equity instruments – All equity investments in scope of Ind As 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at fair value through profit and loss ('FVTPL"). For all other equity instruments, the Group decides to classify the same either as at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI") or FVTPL. The Group makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable. If the Group decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to profit or loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Group may transfer the cumulative gain 285Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information or loss within equity. Dividends on such investments are recognized in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the profit or loss. De-recognition of financial assets Financial assets (or where applicable, a part of financial asset or part of a Group of similar financial assets) are derecognized from the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. The Group also derecognizes the financial asset if it has both transferred the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition. II. Financial liabilities Initial recognition Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. Financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held for trading. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognized in restated consolidated statement of profit and loss. Subsequent measurement After initial recognition, the financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate ("EIR") method. Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The effect of EIR amortization is included as finance costs in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. De-recognition of financial liabilities A financial liability is de-recognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expired. 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 an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in restated consolidated statement of profit and loss. III. Impairment of financial assets In accordance with Ind As 109, the Group uses ‘Expected Credit Loss’ (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of financial assets other than those measured at FVTPL. Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:  The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or 286Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information  Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument) Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. The Group periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical data and ageing of accounts receivable. The Group creates allowance for unsecured receivables based on historical credit loss experience, industry practice and business environment in which the entity operates and is adjusted for forward looking information. Subsequently when the Group is satisfied that no recovery of such losses is possible, the financial asset is considered irrecoverable and the amount charged to the allowance account is then written off against the carrying amount of the impaired financial asset. For other assets, the Group uses 12-month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used. IV. Impairment of non-financial assets As at the end of each financial year, the carrying amounts of PPE, investment property, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associate and joint venture companies are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If such indication exists, PPE, investment property, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associate and joint venture companies are tested for impairment so as to determine the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is tested for impairment each year. Impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is determined: (i) in the case of an individual asset, at the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and the value- in-use; and (ii) in the case of a cash generating unit (the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates independent cash flows), at the higher of the cash generating unit’s fair value less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. (The amount of value-in-use is determined as the present value of estimated future cash flows from the continuing use of an asset, which may vary based on the future performance of the Group and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. For this purpose, the discount rate (post-tax) is determined based on the weighted average cost of capital of the Group suitably adjusted for risks specified to the estimated cash flows of the asset). If recoverable amount of an asset (or cash generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, such deficit is recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as impairment loss and the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. When an impairment loss recognized earlier is subject to full or partial reversal, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit), except impairment loss allocated to goodwill, is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, such that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss is recognized for the asset (or cash generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss (other than impairment loss allocated to goodwill) is recognized immediately in the statement of profit and loss. 287Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information V. Loans and borrowings This is the category most relevant to the Group. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognized in statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized 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 amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss. De-recognition of financial instruments The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognition under Ind As 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Group’s balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. N. Provisions, contingent liabilities & contingent assets General Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Long-term provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. Short term provisions are carried at their redemption value and are not offset against receivables from reimbursements. Contingent liabilities 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. Contingent assets A contingent asset is not recognized unless it becomes virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise. When an inflow of economic benefits is probable, contingent assets are disclosed in the Ind As restated consolidated financial information. 288Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information Onerous contract Provision for onerous contracts. i.e. contracts where the expected unavoidable cost of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it, are recognized when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle a present obligation as a result of an obligating event based on a reliable estimate of such obligation. O. Cash and cash equivalents Cash & cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and cash on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. P. Cash flow statement Restated consolidated cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The restated consolidated cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. Certain arrangements entered with financiers have been classified as borrowings by the Group. The Group presents cash outflows to settle the liability arising from financing activities in its statement of cash flows. Q. Share Capital Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified as equity only to the extent that they do not meet the definition of a financial liability or financial asset. The Group's ordinary shares are classified as equity instruments. R. Income tax Current tax Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income. Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provision where appropriate Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the restated consolidated financial information and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under Income-tax Act, 1961. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the 289Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. S. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs. T. Earnings per share (i) Basic earnings per share Basic Earnings Per Share ('EPS') is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity share outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for treasury shares. (ii) Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the year, unless issued at a later date. In computing diluted earnings per share, only potential equity shares that are dilutive and that either reduces earnings per share or increases loss per share are included. 290Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information U. Segment reporting The Group has engaged in the business of Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and has only reportable segment in accordance with Ind As-108 'Operating Segment'. The information relating to this operating segment is reviewed regularly by the Board of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated and to assess its performance. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the restated consolidated financial information are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in the segment, and are as set out in the material accounting policies. V. Employee benefits i. Short term employee benefits Employee benefits such as salaries, wages, short-term compensated absences, bonus, ex-gratia and performance-linked rewards falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits and are expensed in the period in which the employee renders the service ii. Post-employment benefits a) Provident fund The Group’s state governed provident fund scheme, employee state insurance scheme and employee pension scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid/payable under the schemes is recognized during the period in which the employee renders the service. The Group has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund. b) Defined benefits plan Gratuity The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit plan (the 'Gratuity Plan") covering eligible employees in accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Gratuity liability is a defined benefit obligation and is provided on the basis of its actuarial valuation based on the projected unit credit method made at each balance sheet date/reporting date. Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognized immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods. 291Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information Short-term and other long-term employee benefits The Group records all short-term obligation for such compensated absences as well as performance bonus on the basis of amount paid in the period during which the services are rendered by the employees, all such expenses are recognize in the period in which they actually arise. W. Share based payments Senior executives and employees of the Company receive remuneration in the form of share-based payments, whereby they render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions). The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting year, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognized in statement of profit and loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity settled employee benefits reserve. Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of options, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an options, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an option and lead to an immediate expensing of an option unless there are also service and/or performance conditions. No expense is recognized for options that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met. Where options include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied. When the terms of an equity- settled options are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the grant date fair value of the unmodified option, provided the original vesting terms of the option are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an option is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the option is expensed immediately through profit or loss. When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the grant date fair value of the unmodified award, provided the original vesting terms of the award are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an award is cancelled by the Company or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately through profit or loss. 292Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share. X. Foreign currency transactions and balances Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group at its functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. However, for practical reasons, the Group uses an average rate if the average approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at the fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of transaction. Y. Leases Identifying leases The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is or contains a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease contracts entered by the Group majorly pertains for premises and equipment’s taken on lease to conduct its business in the ordinary course. Group as a lessee The Group had adopted Ind As 116 “Leases” using the modified retrospective approach by applying the standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The Group also elected to use the recognition exemption for lease contracts that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of twelve months or less and do not contain a purchase option (“short-term leases”) and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value other than land. (“low value assets”). The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets. 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. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment. Refer to the accounting policies in "Impairment of non-financial assets". 293Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information Lease liabilities 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 Group 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 because 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. Short-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. Z. Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies When preparing the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, management makes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses Income tax and deferred tax assets The Group uses estimates and judgements based on the relevant rulings in the areas of allocation of revenue, costs, allowances and disallowances which is exercised while determining the provision for income tax. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Accordingly, the Group exercises its judgement to reassess the carrying amount of deferred tax assets at the end of each reporting year. Useful lives of depreciable assets The Group reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting year. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future year. 294Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information Actuarial valuation The determination of Group’s liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation including determination of amounts to be recognized in the statement of profit and loss and in other comprehensive income. Such valuation depend upon assumptions determined after taking into account discount rate, salary growth rate, expected rate of return, mortality and attrition rate. Information about such valuation is provided in notes to the restated consolidated financial information. Impairment of non-financial assets In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash- generating units based on expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate. Contingencies Management judgement is required for estimating the possible outflow of resources, if any, in respect of contingencies/ claim/ litigation against Group as it is not possible to predict the outcome of pending matters with accuracy. Share-based payments Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimation requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The Black Scholes valuation model has been used by the management for share based payment transactions. Revenue recognition For performance obligation satisfied over time, the revenue recognition is done by measuring the progress towards complete satisfaction of performance obligation. The progress is measured in terms of a proportion of actual cost incurred to date, to the total estimated cost attributable to the performance obligation. AA. Recent accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting standards Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. During the year ended March 31, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind As 116 – Leases, relating to sale and lease back transactions, applicable from April 1, 2024. The Company has assessed that there is no significant impact on its financial statements. On May 9, 2025, MCA notifies the amendments to Ind AS 21 - Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. These amendments aim to 295Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes to restated consolidated financial information provide clearer guidance on assessing currency exchangeability and estimating exchange rates when currencies are not readily exchangeable. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2025. There will be no material impact on the restated consolidated financial statements of the Company. 296Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited (Formerly known as Solarworld Energy Solutions Private Limited) CIN: U15100DL2013PLC255455 Notes and other explanatory information to restated consolidated financial information (Amounts are ₹ in millions unless otherwise stated) Note 3A:- Property, plant and equipment Deemed cost/ cost Freehold land Plant and machinery Office equipment Motor vehicles Computers Furniture and fixtures Total Balance as at April 01, 2022 - 0.03 0.14 8.15 1.52 1.33 1 1.17 Additions - 3.59 0.33 3.84 0.80 1.19 9.75 Deletions - - - - - - - Balance as at March 31, 2023 - 3.62 0.47 11.99 2.32 2.52 2 0.92 Additions - 0.59 0.06 0.29 0.73 0.16 1.83 Deletions - - - (0.69) - - (0.69) Balance as at March 31, 2024 - 4.21 0.53 11.59 3.05 2.68 2 2.06 Additions 391.61 1.49 1.47 2.22 7.44 11.63 4 15.86 Adjustments on loss of control of (49.04) - - - - - (49.04) subsidiary Deletions - - - - - - - Balance as at March 31, 2025 342.57 5.69 2.01 13.81 10.49 14.30 3 88.88 Balance as at April 01, 2022 - 0.01 0.03 5.93 0.79 0.09 6 .85 Depreciation for the year - 0.32 0.11 0.79 0.72 0.37 2 .31 Disposals - - - - - - - Balance as at March 31, 2023 - 0.33 0.14 6.72 1.51 0.46 9 .16 Depreciation for the year - 0.93 0.33 1.66 0.83 0.54 4 .28 Disposals - - - (0.65) - - (0.65) Balance as at March 31, 2024 - 1.26 0.47 7.73 2.34 1.00 1 2.80 Depreciation for the year - 0.40 0.31 0.67 0.51 0.38 2 .27 Disposals - - - - - - - Balance as at March 31, 2025 - 1.66 0.78 8.40 2.85 1.38 1 5.07 Net block (net) Balance as at March 31, 2023 - 3.29 0.33 5.27 0.81 2.06 1 1.76 Balance as at March 31, 2024 - 2.95 0.06 3.86 0.71 1.68 9 .26 Balance as at March 31, 2025 342.57 4.04 1.22 5.41 7.64 12.93 3 73.81 Note: (i) The title deeds of all the freehold land are in the name of the respective companies.

Partly paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the extent that they were entitled to participate in dividends relative to a fully paid equity share during the reporting year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue and share split that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of equity shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential equity shares into equity shares. The following is a reconciliation of the equity shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per equity share: For the year ended For the year ended For the year ended Particulars March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 Net profit for the year attributable to equity shareholders (in Rupee) (a) 7 70.48 5 16.91 148.36 Number of equity share at the beginning of the year 3 20,000 320,000 3 20,000 Add : Share issued during the year 3 1,547 - - Add : Stock split ratio 1:2 3 51,547 320,000 3 20,000 Add : Bonus shares issued during the year 70,309,400 6 4,000,000 6 4,000,000 Add: Share issued through private placement 3,124,548 - - Number of equity share at the end of the year 7 4,137,042 64,640,000 6 4,640,000 Weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year- Basic (b) 7 2,130,739 64,640,000 6 4,640,000 Weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year-Diluted (c) 72,152,224 64,640,000 64,640,000 Face value of equity shares (Rs. per share) 5.00 5 .00 5.00 Earnings per Share (Basic) (Rs.)

Board of Directors regularly reviews the changes in the market conditions, management policies and procedures and the adequacy of risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The framework seeks to identify, asses and mitigate financial risk in order to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. In the course of its business, the Group is exposed primarily to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, equity prices, liquidity and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments: 1) Credit risk 2) Liquidity risk 3) Market risk This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Group’s management of capital. 1) 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. Credit risk encompasses of both, the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of creditworthiness as well as concentration of risks. Credit risk is controlled by analysing credit limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous basis to whom the credit has been granted after obtaining necessary approvals for credit. Financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk principally consist of trade receivables, investments, cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and other financial assets. Credit risk exposure The following table shows the exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date: March 31, 2025 Particulars Carrying Estimated gross carrying amount at Expected credit losses amount net of default provision Cash & cash equivalents 110.87 - 110.87 Bank balance other than cash and cash equivalents 1,160.33 - 1,160.33 Trade receivables 1,586.57 144.05 1,442.52 Other financial assets 961.80 - 961.80 Loans 215.21 - 215.21 Investments 73.07 - 73.07 March 31, 2024 Particulars Carrying Estimated gross carrying amount at Expected credit losses amount net of default provision Cash & cash equivalents 203.81 - 203.81 Bank balance other than cash and cash equivalents 201.23 - 201.23 Trade receivables 302.03 - 302.03 Other financial assets 613.79 - 613.79 Loans 1.40 - 1.40 Investments 88.30 - 88.30 March 31, 2023 Particulars Estimated gross carrying amount at Carrying Expected credit losses amount net of default provision Cash & cash equivalents 43.31 - 43.31 Bank balance other than cash and cash equivalents 131.76 - 131.76 Trade receivables 205.19 - 205.19 Other financial assets 307.15 - 307.15 Loans 253.70 - 253.70 Investments 68.43 - 68.43 (i) Trade & other receivables: The Group has an established process to evaluate the creditworthiness of its customers to minimise potential credit risk. Credit evaluations are performed by the Group before agreements to render services are entered into with prospective customers. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. One customer of the Group individually accounted for more than 70% of the outstanding trade receivable as at March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: One customer, March 31, 2023: One customer). The Group’s major customers includes public sector undertakings. Accordingly, the Company’s customer credit risk is low. The Company’s average project execution cycle is around 12 to 24 months. General payment terms include monthly progress payments and certain retention money to be released at the end of the project. For private customers, the Group evaluates the creditworthiness based on publicly available financial information and the Group’s historical experiences.

Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Group periodically and the limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty’s potential failure to make payment. Impairment on cash and cash equivalents, deposits and other financial instruments has been measured on the 12-month expected credit loss basis and reflects the short maturities of the exposures. The Group considers that its cash and cash equivalents have low credit risk based on external credit ratings of counterparties. 2) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are proposed to be settled by delivering cash or other financial asset. The Group’s financial planning has ensured, as far as possible, that there is sufficient liquidity to meet the liabilities whenever due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. The Group regularly monitors the rolling forecasts to ensure it has sufficient cash on an on-going basis to meet operational needs. Any short-term surplus cash generated, over and above the amount required for working capital management and other operational requirements, is retained as cash and cash equivalents (to the extent required) and any excess is invested in interest bearing term deposits with appropriate maturities to optimise the cash returns on investments while ensuring sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities. Maturity profile of financial liabilities The following table details the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The tables include principal cash flows along with interest. To the extent that interest flows are floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curves at the end of the reporting year. The contractual maturity is based on the earliest date on which the Group may be required to pay.

Overview We are engaged in providing solar energy solutions, specialising in engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services for solar power projects. We commenced our operations in 2013, offering comprehensive, end to end and cost-effective solutions for the installation of solar power projects tailored to our customers’ needs, which comprise public sector undertakings (“PSUs”) and commercial and industrial clients (“C&I Clients”). Our business operations are supported by our strong execution capabilities, which is demonstrated by the projects which have achieved their commercial operation date (“Completed Projects”) and our projects for which we have received orders or are currently under execution (“Ongoing Projects”). As on July 31, 2025, we have Completed Projects with a total capacity of 253.67 megawatts (“MW”) AC/ 336.17 MW DC, and Ongoing Projects with a capacity of 765 MW AC / 994 MW DC for EPC and 325 MW/650 MWh for BESS. Our solutions are designed to strengthen our customers sustainable energy infrastructure, supporting their decarbonization efforts and driving energy efficiency improvements. We offer these solutions through two distinct models namely the capital expenditure (“CAPEX”) model and the renewable energy service company (“RESCO”) model. 352Under the CAPEX model, we provide end-to-end solutions by designing, installing, setting up and commissioning the solar power projects on a turn-key basis for our customers, while the ownership of the solar power projects vests with the customer itself. The scope of our services ranges from the evaluation of land, designing of the project, procurement of raw material and components, installation of equipment, setup of the transmission infrastructure and the maintenance/operation of the project for the contracted period. Under the RESCO model, the power purchaser is not required to make any capital investment for the solar power project, allowing them to reduce their carbon footprint without upfront expenditure. The investment under this model includes land acquisition, equipment procurement and installation, and obtaining necessary regulatory and statutory approvals from local authorities. We install, own and operate the solar power projects, with our customers purchasing the generated power at fixed tariffs agreed upon through long-term power purchase agreements (“PPAs”). Under the CAPEX and RESCO models, we also provide operations and maintenance (“O&M”) services depending on the requirements of our customers. These services are designed to provide forward-integrated, full life-cycle support, ensuring the long-term performance and reliability of solar power. A majority of our EPC projects (approximately 95% as on March 31, 2025) have our bundled O&M services for a period ranging from two to five years. For further details, refer to “Our Business – Our Business Operations – O&M” on page 199. Under both the CAPEX and RESCO models, solar power projects are broadly categorized into ground-mounted projects and rooftop projects, catering to different customer needs and site conditions. For further details about our service offerings and our operations, please see “Our Business - Our Business Operations” on page 198.

In accordance with the Ind AS requirements, revenue generated from the joint venture are not consolidated on a line-by-line basis in the restated consolidated financial statements of our Company. The profit / loss from joint venture is consolidated at profit before tax level. Further, it may be noted that these projects were initially setup by Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited. Subsequent to the commissioning, these projects were transferred to the Joint Venture ie Kehan Solarworld Private Limited. Our Company has entered into an equity co-operation agreement with ZNSHINE PV-Tech Co. Limited, a Bloomberg NEF tier- 1 supplier from China, dated May 14, 2024, (“Equity Co-operation Agreement”) for the establishment of a solar panel manufacturing facility which has become operational with effect from July 21, 2025. Our Company will further contribute ₹ 10 million as equity, up to ₹ 1,500 million as quasi capital, in the form of debt, to be utilised as per the business needs of ZNSHINE PV-Tech Co. Limited. Our initiative aims to incorporate backward integration into our services utilizing in-house components. For further details, see “Our Business - Strategies - Invest in our manufacturing capabilities for solar modules, BESS and solar PV TopCon cell” and “History and Certain Corporate Matters- Details regarding material acquisitions or divestments of business/undertakings, mergers, amalgamation, any revaluation of assets, etc. in the last 10 years” on pages 196 and 223, respectively. We have a track record of delivering successful projects for both PSUs and C&I Clients. Our customer mix includes key customers such as SJVN Green Energy Limited, Haldiram Snacks Private Limited, Ethnic Food Manufacturing Private Limited and Samiksha Solarworld Private Limited. While the government projects are often awarded through a reverse bidding process, our Company has also cultivated a presence in the private sector solar power projects. For private sector solar power projects, we rely on our in-house marketing teams which actively engage with potential clients, tailoring our solar solutions to meet their specific energy requirements. Our proactive approach has enabled us to establish a strong connection with the clients thereby ensuring presence in the private sector. 353We have successfully completed 46 ground mounted projects and rooftop installations since 2014, as on July 31, 2025. These projects demonstrate our established track record, expertise and commitment to renewable energy solutions in India.

Solar sector growth in India is primarily spurred by robust government backing, demonstrated through an aggressive tendering strategy. Some of the key catalysts include technological advancements, affordable financing, supportive policies, thrust on go- green initiatives/sustainability targets, cost optimisation due to increased grid electricity tariffs, subsidy initiative (specially in rooftop solar) and various incentives such as ISTS charge waiver. (Source: CRISIL Report) It is expected that 170-180 GW of solar capacity additions would be added over Fiscal 2026 to Fiscal 2030 across all sectors. (Source CRISIL Report). The table below details the historical growth of the Indian solar power industry for the last three Fiscals: Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2023 All Indian solar installed capacity (GW) 105.65 81.81 66.78 Annual capacity additions (GW) 23.83 15.03 12.78 O&M service for solar (Rs billion) 6.6 4.6 3.5 EPC service for solar (Rs billion) 493.8 356.2 269.2 (Source: CRISIL Report) Principal Factors Affecting our Results of Operations Our financial performance and results of operations are influenced by a number of important factors, some of which are beyond our control, including without limitation, intense global and domestic competition, general economic conditions, changes in conditions in the regional markets in which we operate, changes in costs of supplies, and evolving government regulations and policies. Some of the more important factors are discussed below, as well as in the section titled “Risk Factors” on page 30. Relationship with key customers We are dependent on certain key customers for our business. The table below sets forth our revenue from our top customer and top 10 customers, as a percentage of our revenue from operations for the period indicated: Revenue from Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 customers Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of total revenue total revenue total revenue from operations from from operations operations (₹ in million) (%) (₹ in million) (%) (₹ in million) (%) Top customer* 4,313.92 79.19 4567.51 91.16 2,045.26 87.98 Top 10 customers 5,446.18 99.97 5,007.43 99.95 2,324.61 100.00 Total revenue from 5,447.65 100.00 5,010.16 100.00 2,324.61 100.00 operations * Represents SJVN Green Energy Limited The identity of our top customer and top 10 customers varied between fiscal years and periods. The loss of any one of our key customers or a substantial reduction in orders from such key customers may impact our business prospects and financial performance. Further, certain of our key customer agreements include terms relating to liquidated damages and/ or idling charges per module per month, for any delay in delivery of modules. In the event of breach of warranties, we are required to indemnify and reimburse the direct loss and damage to the customer. Such agreements can also be typically terminated in event of any default on our part with respect to the terms of such agreement. In addition, in case of an inability on our part to obtain appropriate regulatory approvals within a specified period, the customer is entitled to terminate such agreement or reduce the contracted capacity under such agreement. Cost of materials consumed Our ability to remain competitive, maintain costs and profitability depend significantly on our ability to source and maintain a stable and sufficient supply of materials and components at acceptable prices. Our major materials requirements include solar 355cells and panels. The table below sets forth details of our cost of material consumed, including as a percentage of our total expenses and total revenue from operations, from India, China and other jurisdictions during the last three Fiscals: Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023 Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of Amount Percentage of revenue from revenue from revenue from operations operations operations (₹ million) (%) (₹ million) (%) (₹ million) (%) Cost of materials consumed 2,824.23 51.84 3,813.10 76.11 1,817.45 78.18 - From India 2,823.03 51.82 3,322.06 66.31 1,637.93 70.46 - From China 1.20 0.02 491.05 9.80 179.52 7.72 - Others - - - - - - We depend on external suppliers for our materials and components required and typically purchase materials and components on a purchase order basis and place such orders with them in advance on the basis of our anticipated requirements. As a result, the success of our business is significantly dependent on maintaining good relationships with our materials and component suppliers. Our supply arrangements are subject to price volatility caused by various factors such as market fluctuations, currency fluctuations, climatic and environmental conditions, production and transportation cost, changes in domestic as well as international government policies, and regulatory and trade sanctions. If we cannot fully offset increases in material prices with increases in the prices for our products, we will experience lower margins. Regulatory landscape and policies The solar energy industry in which we operate is subject to constant change. Our business is heavily dependent on GoI and state government policies that encourage establishment and adoption of solar energy projects. For further information, see “Risk Factors – Compliance with present and changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties may adversely affect our business and financial performance.” on page 65. In particular, the solar energy industry benefits from various incentives provided by the GoI. If any of these benefits or policies are adversely amended, eliminated or not extended beyond their current expiration dates, or if funding for these incentives is reduced, or if governmental support of renewable energy development, particularly solar energy, is discontinued or reduced, it could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition. We also cannot assure you that laws or regulations will not be adopted, enforced or interpreted in the future in a manner that will not have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Any such adverse change in law or applicable policy may require us to face increased compliance costs, obtain additional and licences, and may also require us to alter our business strategy, or implement onerous requirements and conditions on our operations. Competition As a solar module company in India, we compete with other Indian companies in similar sector. A few competitors have undertaken initiatives for higher backward integration which would enable them to compete on costs and have better margin performance. In order to capitalize on this expected growth in demand for solar EPC solutions, we have established a cutting- edge manufacturing facility at Haridwar, Uttarakhand for manufacturing tunnel oxide passivated contact (“TopCon”) solar modules with an annual capacity of 1.2 GW, by entering into Equity Co-operation Agreement with ZNSHINE PV-Tech Co. Ltd, a Bloomberg NEF tier-1 supplier. Further, we intend to set up a battery energy storage systems (“BESS”) production line of a capacity of 2 GW. Both the manufacturing facilities are funded through debt and internal accruals. Further, some of our competitors may have greater financial, marketing, personnel and other resources than we do and may be in a position to seek to grow their business more aggressively. Any increase in competition in our industry is likely to adversely impact our market share, margins and profitability. Significant Accounting Policies for the Restated Consolidated Financial Information A. Statement of compliance and basis of preparation The restated consolidated financial information comprises the restated consolidated statement of assets and liabilities as at March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss including other comprehensive income, the restated consolidated statement of changes in equity and the restated consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2025 and for the years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, and the summary of 356material accounting policies and other explanatory note (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Restated Consolidated Financial Information”). The restated consolidated financial information of the Group and its associates and its joint ventures has been specifically prepared for inclusion in the Red Herring Prospectus (the "RHP") to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (“SEBI”) in connection with the proposed Initial Public Offer of equity shares (“IPO”) of the Company (referred to as the “Issuer”). These restated consolidated financial information have been prepared by the management of the Holding Company to comply with the requirements of: (i) Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Act; (ii) Relevant provisions of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018, issued by SEBI on 11 September 2018 in pursuance of the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992; (iii) The Guidance Note on Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”), as amended from time to time (the “Guidance Note”). The Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been compiled by the Management from: a. the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group and its associate and its joint ventures as at and for the year ended March 31, 2025 prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS') as notified by Ministry of Corporate Affairs ('MCA') under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act, which have been approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on August 06, 2025. b. Audited consolidated financial statements of the Group and its associate and its joint venture as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024 prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards, as prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015, as amended (referred to as “Ind As”), and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, which have been approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on September 16, 2024. c. Audited special purpose consolidated financial statements of the Group and its associate and its joint venture as at and for the year ended March 31, 2023 prepared in accordance with the Ind As notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended, to the extent applicable, and the presentation requirements of the Companies Act, 2013 which were prepared by the management of the Company and were approved for issue in accordance with the resolution passed by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on September 25, 2024. Pursuant to the Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Second Amendment Rules, 2015, the Company has voluntarily adopted March 31, 2024, as reporting date for first time adoption of Ind-AS – notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time) and consequently April 01, 2021, is the transition date for preparation of its financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024. Hence, the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024, were the first financials, prepared in accordance with Ind-AS. Upto the financial year ended March 31, 2023, the Company had prepared its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting standards notified under the section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021 (“Indian GAAP” or “Previous GAAP”) due to which the special purpose consolidated financial statements are prepared for the purpose of filing Red Herring Prospectus (the "RHP"). Further, this special purpose consolidated financial statements are not the statutory consolidated financial statements under the Act. The special purpose consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2023 have been prepared after making suitable adjustments to the accounting heads from their Indian GAAP values following accounting policies and accounting policy choices (both mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind As 101) consistent with that used at the date of transition to Ind As (April 01, 2021) and as per the presentation, accounting policies and grouping/classifications including Revised Schedule III disclosures followed as at and for year ended March 31, 2024. The special purpose consolidated financial statements referred to above have been prepared solely for the purpose of preparation of restated consolidated financial information for inclusion in RHP in relation to proposed IPO. Hence, this special purpose 357consolidated financial statements are not suitable for any other purpose other than for the purpose of preparation of restated consolidated financial information. Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy thereto in use. The restated consolidated financial information are prepared on going concern, accrual and historical cost basis except for the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value: • Defined benefit plans-plan assets measured at fair value. • Certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value The Group and its associate and its joint ventures has prepared the restated consolidated financial information on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. B. Functional & presentational currency The restated consolidated financial information has been presented in Indian Rupees (Rs. or INR), which is also the Group’s functional currency. All amounts have been rounded-off to the nearest millions and decimals thereof, unless otherwise mentioned. C. Basis of consolidation The restated consolidated financial information incorporates the consolidated financial statements of the Holding Company and its subsidiaries, associate and its joint ventures. Control is achieved where the Group: a) has power over the investee b) is exposed to, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and c) has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. The Group reassess 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 listed above. Consolidation of subsidiaries begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiaries and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiaries. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiaries. Consolidation procedure: Subsidiaries a) Combine items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent with those of its subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiaries are based on the amounts of the assets and liabilities recognized in the restated consolidated financial information at the acquisition date. b) Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiaries and the parent’s portion of equity of each subsidiaries. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill. c) Eliminate in full intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between entities of the Group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are recognized in assets, such as inventory and fixed assets, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the restated consolidated financial information. Ind As 12 Income Taxes applies to temporary differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting from intragroup transactions. d) The interest of non-controlling shareholders is initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition- by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’ share of subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Group and to the non- controlling interests. The total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Group and to the non- controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. 358Associate Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. This is generally the case where the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting (see below), after initially being recognized at cost. Joint ventures Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method (see below), after initially being recognized at cost in the restated consolidated statement of assets and liabilities. Equity method a) The Group’s investments in its associate and its joint venture are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment in an associate and its joint ventures is initially recognized at cost. Goodwill relating to the associate and its joint ventures is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment individually. The statement of profit and loss reflects the Group’s share of the results of operations of the associate and its joint ventures. The aggregate of the Group’s share of profit or loss of an associate and its joint ventures is shown on the face of the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss. b) If an entity’s share of losses of an associate and joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate and its joint venture (which includes any long term interest that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate and its joint venture), the entity discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. c) Upon loss of significant influence over the associate and its joint venture, the Group measures and recognizes any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in profit or loss. Changes in ownership interests The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognized within equity. When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss of control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. If the ownership interest in a joint venture or an associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate. D. Current vs non-current classifications The Group presents assets and liabilities in the restated consolidated financial information based on current / non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria: a) it is expected to be realized in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Group’s normal operating cycle. b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; c) it is expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting date; or d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. All other assets are classified as non-current. 359A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria: a) it is expected to be settled in the Group’s normal operating cycle; b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; c) it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date; or the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Terms of liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current only. Material accounting policies: E. Business combination Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition related costs are recognized in restated consolidated statement of profit and loss as incurred at the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired, and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. F. Goodwill Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognized for non-controlling interests, and any previous interest held over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognized at the acquisition date. If the reassessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognized in OCI and accumulated in equity as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the entity recognizes the gain directly in equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through OCI. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units or Group’s of cash-generating units that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognized in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. G. Use of estimates, assumptions and judgements The preparation of the restated consolidated financial information in conformity with Ind As requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the restated consolidated financial information and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Accounting estimates could change from year to year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the restated consolidated financial information in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the restated consolidated financial information. H. Fair value measurement 360Certain accounting policies and disclosures of the Group 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 categorized 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 categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. I. Revenue recognition Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. When a performance obligation is satisfied, the revenue is measured at the transaction price which is consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates after taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. When another party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, the Group determines whether the nature of its promise is a performance obligation to provide the specified goods or services itself (i.e., the Group is a principal) or to arrange for the other party to provide those goods or services (i.e., the Group is an agent). When the Group considers itself as a principal and satisfies its performance. Obligation in a given arrangement, the Group recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services transferred. When the Group considers itself as an agent and satisfies its performance obligation in a given arrangement, the Group recognizes revenue in the amount of any fee or commission to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for arranging for the other party to provide its goods or services. The Group’s fee or commission is the net amount of consideration that the Group retains after paying the other party the consideration received in exchange for the goods or services to be provided by that party. The Group derives revenues primarily from sale of solar modules, solar cells, solar accessories and construction/project related activity, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) and operation and maintenance. Revenue from sale of goods Revenue is recognized at point of time when the control of the same is transferred to the customer and it is probable that the Group will collect the consideration to which it is entitled for the exchanged goods The point at which control passes is determined based on the terms and conditions by each customer arrangement. Revenue from construction/project related activity Contract revenue is recognized over time to the extent of performance obligation satisfied and control is transferred to the customer. Contract revenue is recognized at an allocable transaction price which represents the cost of work performed on the contract plus proportionate margin, using the percentage of completion method. Percentage of completion is the proportion of cost of work performed to date, to the total estimated contract costs. With respect to contracts, where the outcome of the performance obligation cannot be reasonably measured, but the costs incurred towards satisfaction of performance obligation are expected to be recovered, the revenue is recognized only to the extent of costs incurred. Revenue from operation and maintenance 361Revenue from operation & maintenance is recognized as the proportion of the total year of services contract that has elapsed at the end of the reporting year. For contracts where the aggregate of contract cost incurred to date plus recognized profits (or minus recognized losses as the case may be) exceeds the progress billing, the surplus is shown as contract asset and termed as “Unbilled revenue”. For contracts where progress billing exceeds the aggregate of contract costs incurred to-date plus recognized profits (or minus recognized losses, as the case may be), the surplus is shown as contract liability and termed as unearned revenue (“excess of billing over revenue”). Amounts received before the related work is performed are disclosed in the Balance Sheet as contract liability and termed as “Advances from customer”. The amounts billed on the customer for work performed and are unconditionally due for payment i.e. only passage of time is required before payment falls due, are disclosed in the balance sheet as trade receivables. The amount of retention money held by the customers pending completion of performance milestone is disclosed as part of contract asset and is reclassified as trade receivables when it becomes due for payment. Contract balances: (i) Contract liabilities A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or the amount is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognized when the payment is made, or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Group performs under the contract. (ii) Trade receivables A receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i .e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). (iii) Contract assets A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to customer. If the Group performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognized for the earned consideration that is conditional. J. Other income Interest income on bank deposits and loan is accrued on a time proportion basis by reference to the principal outstanding and the effective interest rate. Other items of income are accounted as and when the right to receive arises and it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. K. Property, plant and equipment i) Recognition and measurement Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses if any, cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates, any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working condition for its intended use and estimated costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Property, plant and equipment not ready for the intended use on the date of balance sheet are disclosed as “Capital work-in- progress”. Such items are classified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Advances given towards acquisition/construction of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date are disclosed as capital advances under “Other non-current assets”. Capital work-in-progress includes cost of property, plant and equipment under installation / under development as at the balance sheet date ii) Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other expenses on existing fixed assets, including day-to-day repair 362and maintenance expenditure and cost of replacing parts, are charged to the restated consolidated statement of profit and loss for the period during which such expenses are incurred. iii) Depreciation and useful lives Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of Property, plant and equipment which coincide with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Estimated useful life of the assets is given below: Tangible assets Useful life Plant and equipment 8-15 Years Furniture and fixtures 10 Years Office equipment 5 Years Computers 3 Years Motor vehicles 8-10 Years iv) Gain and loss on disposal of item of property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are eliminated from restated consolidated financial information, either on disposal or when retired from active use. Losses/gains arising in case retirement/disposals of property, plant and equipment are recognized in the restated statement of profit and loss in the year of occurrence. v) Residual values The Group’s reviews the residual value, useful lives and depreciation method annually and, if expectations differ from previous estimates, the change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate on a prospective basis. L. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. a) Raw materials, components, construction materials, stores, spares and loose tools: cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on ‘First in First Out’ (“FIFO”) method. b) Cost of finished goods include cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on the normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. Cost is determined on ‘First in First Out’ (“FIFO”) method. c) Cost of traded goods include purchase cost and inward freight. Costs are determined on ‘First in First Out’ (“FIFO”) method. Assessment of net realizable value is made at each reporting period end and when the circumstances that previously caused inventories to be written-down below cost no longer exist or when there is clear evidence of an increase in net realizable value because of changed economic circumstances, the write-down, if any, in the past period is reversed to the extent of the original amount written-down so that the resultant carrying amount is the lower of the cost and the revised net realizable value M. Financial instruments Financial assets and/or financial liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes party to a contract embodying the related financial instruments. All financial assets, financial liabilities and financial guarantee contracts are initially measured at fair value excepting for trade receivables not containing a significant financing component are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from as the case may be, the fair value of such financial assets or liabilities, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in profit or loss. In case of funding to subsidiaries companies in the form of interest free or concession loans and preference shares, the excess of the actual amount of the funding over initially measured fair value is accounted as an equity investment. 363A financial asset and a financial liability is offset and presented on net basis in the balance sheet when there is a current legally enforceable right to set-off the recognized amounts and it is intended to either settle on net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities is described below. I. Financial assets Classification and subsequent measurement for the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition: (i) Financial assets at amortized cost – a financial instrument is measured at amortized cost if both the following conditions are met: The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. (ii) Financial assets at fair value Investments in equity instruments – All equity investments in scope of Ind As 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at fair value through profit and loss ('FVTPL"). For all other equity instruments, the Group decides to classify the same either as at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI") or FVTPL. The Group makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable. If the Group decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to profit or loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Group may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. Dividends on such investments are recognized in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the profit or loss. De-recognition of financial assets Financial assets (or where applicable, a part of financial asset or part of a Group of similar financial assets) are derecognized from the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. The Group also derecognizes the financial asset if it has both transferred the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition. II. Financial liabilities Initial recognition Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost or FVTPL. Financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held for trading. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognized in restated consolidated statement of profit and loss. Subsequent measurement After initial recognition, the financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate ("EIR") method. Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The effect of EIR amortization is included as finance costs in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. De-recognition of financial liabilities A financial liability is de-recognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expired. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an 364existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in restated consolidated statement of profit and loss. III. Impairment of financial assets In accordance with Ind As 109, the Group uses ‘Expected Credit Loss’ (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of financial assets other than those measured at FVTPL. Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to: • The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or • Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument) Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. The Group periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical data and ageing of accounts receivable. The Group creates allowance for unsecured receivables based on historical credit loss experience, industry practice and business environment in which the entity operates and is adjusted for forward looking information. Subsequently when the Group is satisfied that no recovery of such losses is possible, the financial asset is considered irrecoverable and the amount charged to the allowance account is then written off against the carrying amount of the impaired financial asset. For other assets, the Group uses 12-month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used. IV. Impairment of non-financial assets As at the end of each financial year, the carrying amounts of PPE, investment property, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associate and joint venture companies are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If such indication exists, PPE, investment property, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associate and joint venture companies are tested for impairment so as to determine the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is tested for impairment each year. Impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is determined: (i) in the case of an individual asset, at the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and the value-in-use; and (ii) in the case of a cash generating unit (the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates independent cash flows), at the higher of the cash generating unit’s fair value less costs of disposal and the value-in-use. (The amount of value-in-use is determined as the present value of estimated future cash flows from the continuing use of an asset, which may vary based on the future performance of the Group and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. For this purpose, the discount rate (post-tax) is determined based on the weighted average cost of capital of the Group suitably adjusted for risks specified to the estimated cash flows of the asset). If recoverable amount of an asset (or cash generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, such deficit is recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as impairment loss and the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. When an impairment loss recognized earlier is subject to full or partial reversal, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit), except impairment loss allocated to goodwill, is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, such that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss is recognized for the asset (or cash generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss (other than impairment loss allocated to goodwill) is recognized immediately in the statement of profit and loss. V. Loans and borrowings This is the category most relevant to the Group. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognized in statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized 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 amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss. De-recognition of financial instruments 365The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognition under Ind As 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Group’s balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. N. Provisions, contingent liabilities & contingent assets General Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Long-term provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. Short term provisions are carried at their redemption value and are not offset against receivables from reimbursements. Contingent liabilities 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. Contingent assets A contingent asset is not recognized unless it becomes virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise. When an inflow of economic benefits is probable, contingent assets are disclosed in the Ind As restated consolidated financial information. Onerous contract Provision for onerous contracts. i.e. contracts where the expected unavoidable cost of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it, are recognized when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle a present obligation as a result of an obligating event based on a reliable estimate of such obligation. O. Cash and cash equivalents Cash & cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and cash on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. P. Cash flow statement Restated consolidated cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The restated consolidated cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated. Certain arrangements entered with financiers have been classified as borrowings by the Group. The Group presents cash outflows to settle the liability arising from financing activities in its statement of cash flows. Q. Share Capital Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified as equity only to the extent that they do not meet the definition of a financial liability or financial asset. The Group's ordinary shares are classified as equity instruments. R. Income tax Current tax 366Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income. Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provision where appropriate Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the restated consolidated financial information and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under Income-tax Act, 1961. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. S. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs. T. Earnings per share (i) Basic earnings per share Basic Earnings Per Share ('EPS') is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity share outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for treasury shares. (ii) Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the year, unless issued at a later date. In computing diluted earnings per share, only potential equity shares that are dilutive and that either reduces earnings per share or increases loss per share are included. U. Segment reporting The Group has engaged in the business of Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and has only reportable segment in accordance with Ind As-108 'Operating Segment'. The information relating to this operating segment is reviewed regularly by the Board of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated and to assess its performance. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the restated consolidated financial information are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in the segment, and are as set out in the material accounting policies. 367V. Employee benefits i. Short term employee benefits Employee benefits such as salaries, wages, short-term compensated absences, bonus, ex-gratia and performance-linked rewards falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits and are expensed in the period in which the employee renders the service ii. Post-employment benefits a) Provident fund The Group’s state governed provident fund scheme, employee state insurance scheme and employee pension scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid/payable under the schemes is recognized during the period in which the employee renders the service. The Group has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund. b) Defined benefits plan Gratuity The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit plan (the 'Gratuity Plan") covering eligible employees in accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Gratuity liability is a defined benefit obligation and is provided on the basis of its actuarial valuation based on the projected unit credit method made at each balance sheet date/reporting date. Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognized immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods. Short-term and other long-term employee benefits The Group records all short-term obligation for such compensated absences as well as performance bonus on the basis of amount paid in the period during which the services are rendered by the employees, all such expenses are recognize in the period in which they actually arise. W. Share based payments Senior executives and employees of the Company receive remuneration in the form of share-based payments, whereby they render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions). The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting year, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognized in statement of profit and loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity settled employee benefits reserve. Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of options, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an options, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting 368conditions are reflected in the fair value of an option and lead to an immediate expensing of an option unless there are also service and/or performance conditions. No expense is recognized for options that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met. Where options include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied. When the terms of an equity-settled options are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the grant date fair value of the unmodified option, provided the original vesting terms of the option are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an option is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the option is expensed immediately through profit or loss. When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the grant date fair value of the unmodified award, provided the original vesting terms of the award are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an award is cancelled by the Company or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately through profit or loss. The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share. X. Foreign currency transactions and balances Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group at its functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. However, for practical reasons, the Group uses an average rate if the average approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at the fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of transaction. Y. Leases Identifying leases The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is or contains a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease contracts entered by the Group majorly pertains for premises and equipment’s taken on lease to conduct its business in the ordinary course. Group as a lessee The Group had adopted Ind As 116 “Leases” using the modified retrospective approach by applying the standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The Group also elected to use the recognition exemption for lease contracts that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of twelve months or less and do not contain a purchase option (“short-term leases”) and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value other than land. (“low value assets”). The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets. 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 369lease 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. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment. Refer to the accounting policies in "Impairment of non-financial assets". Lease liabilities 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 Group 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 because 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. Short-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. Z. Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies When preparing the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, management makes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses Income tax and deferred tax assets The Group uses estimates and judgements based on the relevant rulings in the areas of allocation of revenue, costs, allowances and disallowances which is exercised while determining the provision for income tax. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Accordingly, the Group exercises its judgement to reassess the carrying amount of deferred tax assets at the end of each reporting year. Useful lives of depreciable assets The Group reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting year. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future year. Actuarial valuation The determination of Group’s liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation including determination of amounts to be recognized in the statement of profit and loss and in other comprehensive income. Such valuation depend upon assumptions determined after taking into account discount rate, salary growth rate, expected rate of return, mortality and attrition rate. Information about such valuation is provided in notes to the restated consolidated financial information. Impairment of non-financial assets In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash-generating units based on expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate. 370Contingencies Management judgement is required for estimating the possible outflow of resources, if any, in respect of contingencies/ claim/ litigation against Group as it is not possible to predict the outcome of pending matters with accuracy. Share-based payments Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimation requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The Black Scholes valuation model has been used by the management for share based payment transactions. Revenue recognition For performance obligation satisfied over time, the revenue recognition is done by measuring the progress towards complete satisfaction of performance obligation. The progress is measured in terms of a proportion of actual cost incurred to date, to the total estimated cost attributable to the performance obligation. AA. Recent accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting standards Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. During the year ended March 31, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind As 116 – Leases, relating to sale and lease back transactions, applicable from April 1, 2024. The Company has assessed that there is no significant impact on its financial statements. On May 9, 2025, MCA notifies the amendments to Ind AS 21 - Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. These amendments aim to provide clearer guidance on assessing currency exchangeability and estimating exchange rates when currencies are not readily exchangeable. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2025. There will be no material impact on the restated consolidated financial statements of the Company. Changes in the accounting policies, if any, in the Fiscals 2025, 2024, and 2023 and their effect on our profits and reserves There have been no changes in our accounting policies in the last three Fiscals. Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to our financial results determined in accordance with Ind AS, we consider and use those certain non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators that are presented below as supplemental measures to review and assess our operating performance. Our management does not consider these non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators in isolation or as an alternative or substitutive to the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. We present these non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators because we believe they are useful to our Company in assessing and evaluating our operating performance, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures could help investors as an additional tool to evaluate our ongoing operating results and trends with a more granular view of our financial performance. Non-GAAP financial information are not recognized under Ind AS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by Ind AS. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators used by us may differ from similarly titled non- GAAP measures used by other companies. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by Ind AS to be recorded in our financial statements, as further detailed below. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation is provided below for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with Ind AS. Investors are encouraged to review the related Ind AS financial measures and the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable Ind AS financial measures included below and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP metrics differently from the way we calculate these metrics. See “Risk Factors – We track certain operational metrics and non-generally accepted accounting principles, measures with internal systems and tools and do not independently verify such metrics. Certain of our operational metrics are subject to inherent challenges in measurement and any real or perceived inaccuracies in such metrics may adversely affect our business and reputation.” on page 61. 371Set forth below are our key financial and operational performance indicators for the periods indicated: KPI Unit As of for the Financial year ended Financial year ended Financial year ended March March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 31, 2023 Financial KPIs Revenue from Operations (1) ₹ in million 5,447.65 5,010.16 2,324.61 EBITDA (2) ₹ in million 1,067.47 710.93 228.76 EBITDA Margin (%) (3) % 19.60% 14.19% 9.84% Profit after tax (PAT) (4) ₹ in million 770.48 516.91 148.36 PAT Margin (%) (5) % 14.14% 10.32% 6.38% Debt /Equity Ratio (6) Number 0.37 0.83 2.95 Return on Equity (7) % 40.27% 108.25% 102.40% Return on Capital Employed (8) % 54.53% 86.57% 38.78% Net Working Capital (9) Value 1,211.52 732.50 374.59 Net Working Capital (10) Days 82 54 59 Operational KPIs Order Book (11) ₹ in million 17,005.51 8,130.41 5,350.06 Contracted Capacity during the MW-DC 376 MW DC for EPC 582.00 168.00 year (12) and 125 MW/250 MWh for BESS Commissioned Capacity during MW-DC 24.00 170.00 105.00 the year (13) O&M Served during the year (14) MW-DC 299.00 119.00 28.00 Notes: 1.

Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Board of Directors regularly reviews the changes in the market conditions, management policies and procedures and the adequacy of risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The framework seeks to identify, asses and mitigate financial risk in order to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. In the course of its business, the Group is exposed primarily to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, equity prices, liquidity and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments: a. Credit risk b. Liquidity risk 385c. Market risk This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Group’s management of capital. 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. Credit risk encompasses of both, the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of creditworthiness as well as concentration of risks. Credit risk is controlled by analysing credit limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous basis to whom the credit has been granted after obtaining necessary approvals for credit. Financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk principally consist of trade receivables, investments, cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and other financial assets. Credit risk exposure The following table shows the exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date: March 31, 2025 (₹ in million) Estimated gross carrying amount at Expected credit Carrying amount Particulars default losses net of provision Cash & cash equivalents 110.87 - 110.87 Bank balance other than cash and cash 1,160.33 - 1,160.33 equivalents Trade receivables 1,586.57 144.05 1,442.52 Other financial assets 961.80 - 961.80 Loans 215.21 - 215.21 Investments 73.07 - 73.07 March 31, 2024 (₹ in million) Estimated gross carrying amount at Expected credit Carrying amount Particulars default losses net of provision Cash & cash equivalents 203.81 - 203.81 Bank balance other than cash and cash 201.23 - 201.23 equivalents Trade receivables 302.03 - 302.03 Other financial assets 613.79 - 613.79 Loans 1.40 - 1.40 Investments 88.30 - 88.30 March 31, 2023 (₹ in million) Estimated gross carrying amount at Expected credit Carrying amount Particulars default losses net of provision Cash & cash equivalents 43.31 - 43.31 Bank balance other than cash and cash 131.76 - 131.76 equivalents Trade receivables 205.19 - 205.19 Other financial assets 307.15 - 307.15 386Loans 253.70 - 253.70 Investments 68.43 - 68.43 (i) Trade & other receivables: The Group has an established process to evaluate the creditworthiness of its customers to minimise potential credit risk. Credit evaluations are performed by the Group before agreements to render services are entered into with prospective customers. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. One customer of the Group individually accounted for more than 70% of the outstanding trade receivable as at March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: One customer, March 31, 2023: One customer). The Group’s major customers includes public sector undertakings. Accordingly, the Company’s customer credit risk is low. The Company’s average project execution cycle is around 12 to 24 months. General payment terms include monthly progress payments and certain retention money to be released at the end of the project. For private customers, the Group evaluates the creditworthiness based on publicly available financial information and the Group’s historical experiences. The Group’s exposure to its counterparties are continuously reviewed and monitored by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) being the Board of Directors (Board). Credit period varies as per the contractual terms with the customers. Group doesn’t have significant financing component in the contracts with customers.

Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Group periodically and the limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty’s potential failure to make payment. Impairment on cash and cash equivalents, deposits and other financial instruments has been measured on the 12-month expected credit loss basis and reflects the short maturities of the exposures. The Group considers that its cash and cash equivalents have low credit risk based on external credit ratings of counterparties. 2) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are proposed to be settled by delivering cash or other financial asset. The Group’s financial planning has ensured, as far as 387possible, that there is sufficient liquidity to meet the liabilities whenever due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. The Group regularly monitors the rolling forecasts to ensure it has sufficient cash on an on-going basis to meet operational needs. Any short-term surplus cash generated, over and above the amount required for working capital management and other operational requirements, is retained as cash and cash equivalents (to the extent required) and any excess is invested in interest bearing term deposits with appropriate maturities to optimise the cash returns on investments while ensuring sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities. Maturity profile of financial liabilities The following table details the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The tables include principal cash flows along with interest. To the extent that interest flows are floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curves at the end of the reporting year. The contractual maturity is based on the earliest date on which the Group may be required to pay.

Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long-term debt. The Group is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and the market value of its investments. Thus, the Group’s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currencies. Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the future consolidated cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to its long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. 388The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group, borrow funds at floating interest rates.

The General Information Document was made available on the websites of the Stock Exchanges and the BRLMs. Investors were required to refer to the relevant provisions of the General Information Document which are applicable to the Offer. Bidders were required to note that the details and process provided in the General Information Document was to be read along with this section. For details of filing of the Draft Red Herring Prospectus, the Red Herring Prospectus and this Prospectus, see “General Information – Filing of the Red Herring Prospectus and this Prospectus” on page 79. Bidders were advised to refer to the General Information Document for information in relation to (i) category of investors eligible to participate in the Offer; (ii) maximum and minimum Bid size; (iii) price discovery and allocation; (iv) payment instructions for ASBA Bidders; (v) issuance of CAN and Allotment in the Offer; (vi) general instructions (limited to instructions for completing the Bid cum Application Form); (vii) Designated Date; (viii) disposal of applications and electronic registration of bids; (ix) submission of Bid cum Application Form; (x) other instructions (limited to joint bids in cases of individual, multiple bids and instances when an application would be rejected on technical grounds); (xi) applicable provisions of Companies Act relating to punishment for fictitious applications; (xii) mode of making refunds; and (xiii) interest in case of delay in Allotment or refund. SEBI through the UPI Circulars has proposed to introduce an alternate payment mechanism using Unified Payments Interface (“UPI”) and consequent reduction in timelines for listing in a phased manner. UPI has been introduced in a phased manner as a payment mechanism in addition to ASBA for applications by Retail Individual Bidders through intermediaries from January 1, 2019.

Bidders did not have the option of being Allotted Equity Shares in physical form. Phased implementation of UPI for Bids by RIIs as per the UPI Circulars SEBI has issued UPI Circulars in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of equity shares and convertibles by introducing an alternate payment mechanism using UPI. Pursuant to the UPI Circulars, UPI 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 the 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 have introduced and implemented the UPI payment mechanism in three phases in the following manner: (a) 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 RIB also had the option to submit the ASBA Form with any of the Designated Intermediaries and use his / her UPI ID for the purpose of blocking of funds. The time duration from public issue closure to listing would continue to be six Working Days. (b) 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 vide its circular bearing number SEBI/HO/CFD/DCR2/CIR/P/2019/133 dated November 8, 2019 extended the timeline for implementation of UPI Phase II till March 31, 2020. Further, pursuant to SEBI circular dated March 30, 2020, this phase was extended till further notice. Under this phase, submission of the ASBA Form without UPI 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. (c) Phase III: This phase has become 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 from public issue closure to listing has been reduced to three Working Days. The Offer shall be undertaken pursuant to the processes and procedures as notified in the T+3 Notification as applicable, subject to any circulars, clarification or notification issued by SEBI from time to time, including any circular, clarification or notification which may be issued by SEBI.

Failure to unblock the accounts within the timeline would result in the SCSBs being penalised under the relevant securities law. Additionally, if there is any delay in the redressal of investors’ complaints, the relevant SCSB as well as the post–Offer BRLMs will be required to compensate the concerned investor. All SCSBs offering facility of making application in public issues shall also provide facility to make application using UPI.

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. 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 bodies responsible for granting foreign investment approvals under the FDI Policy and FEMA are the concerned ministries or departments of the Government of India and the RBI. The Government 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 by way of circular bearing number DPIIT File Number 5(2)/2020-FDI Policy dated October 15, 2020 (“FDI Policy”), which with effect from October 15, 2020, consolidates and supersedes all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DPIIT that were in force and effect as on October 15, 2020. The Government proposes to update the consolidated circular on FDI Policy once every year and therefore, the FDI Policy will be valid until the DPIIT issues an updated circular. On October 17, 2019, the 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 investments in this Offer shall be on the basis of the FEMA Non-debt Instruments 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, will require prior approval of the Government, as prescribed in the 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. Furthermore, on April 22, 2020, the Ministry of Finance, Government of India has also made a similar amendment to the FEMA Rules. 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 of 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 the Company and the Registrar to the Offer in writing about such approval along with a copy thereof within the Bid/Offer Period. Pursuant to the FDI Policy, FDI of up to 100% is permitted under the automatic route in 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 FDI Policy and such transfer does not attract the provisions of the SEBI Takeover Regulations; (ii) the non-resident shareholding is within the sectoral limits under the FDI Policy; and (iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by SEBI and RBI. As per the existing policy of the Government, OCBs cannot participate in the Offer. For further details, see “Offer Procedure” on page 429. The above information is given for the benefit of the Bidders. Our Company, the Promoter Selling Shareholder and the BRLMs are not liable for any amendments or modification or changes in applicable laws or regulations, which may occur after the date of the Draft Red Herring Prospectus. Bidders are advised to make their independent investigations and ensure that the number of Equity Shares Bid for do not exceed the applicable limits under laws or regulations. 449SECTION X: MAIN PROVISIONS OF THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION Capitalised terms used in this section have the meanings that have been given to such terms in the Articles of Association of our Company.
