fundraise

Any current/future new fundraising through debt or equity?

- Currently, there are no plans for further equity dilution. - Equity dilution might be considered only if there is a significant growth need in the future, such as reaching ₹2000-3000 crore revenue. - The company conducted a warrant issuance before the US election as a precaution but has no current incentives to raise money. - Founders prefer to avoid dilution early on to retain equity and minimize financial pressure on promoters. - No immediate plans for debt fundraising mentioned. - The company is focused on growth with the equity and resources currently available and prefers organic scaling over raising funds through dilution for now.

capex

Any current/future capex/capital investment/strategic investment?

- Currently, there is no immediate plan for major capital expenditure (capex), especially in offline operations, as offline expansion is costly and lacks management bandwidth at present. - Future offline expansion is considered but will be pursued only when the timing and management capacity are right. - No current plans for major equity dilution or raising funds unless growth triggers a need for equity infusion to scale specific business lines. - Earlier concerns about raising money before the US election did not materialize; hence, no immediate incentives to raise funds. - Actively exploring strategic acquisition opportunities, particularly for growth in service sales and manpower export segments, possibly via joint ventures offering minority equity to partners. - Focus remains on organic growth with selective equity infusion if needed in coming years to fuel specific business growth.
