Fundraise plans

- The company has fully utilized almost all IPO funds raised (INR 320 crores) including for debt repayment, working capital, and corporate purposes. - Post-IPO, approximately INR 200 crores of debt was repaid, mainly in Indian entities; Indian entities are now almost debt-free. - Outstanding debt of about INR 100 crores remains in the US subsidiary, Sienna. - Avalon maintains existing working capital lines in India amounting to INR 175 crores as a financial cushion. - The company is open to inorganic growth opportunities, which may imply potential future fundraising but no explicit new debt or equity raise is mentioned for now. - Current cash and credit facilities provide enough capital for bidding and executing large orders in the pipeline. In summary, no specific current or imminent new fundraising through debt or equity is disclosed beyond existing IPO funds and debt facilities.
