fundraise

Any current/future new fundraising through debt or equity?

- No new large-scale fundraising through debt or equity is currently planned. - The company expects debt to increase in the short term (next 6-9 months) due to ongoing CAPEX of INR 70-80 crores by year-end or Q1 FY27. - Post this period, a deleveraging cycle is expected as production ramp-up starts. - Future small maintenance CAPEX may occur opportunistically but no big CAPEX plans are in the pipeline. - The management aims to grow using existing capacities and outsourcing without significant fresh CAPEX. - Long-term debt may increase slightly but working capital is tightly controlled to manage overall funding. - No participation in recent government PLI schemes indicating no immediate equity infusion plans from that route.

capex

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

- Remaining CAPEX for the current year is around INR 70-80 crores, expected to complete by year-end or spill slightly into Q1 of next year due to installation timelines. - No major new CAPEX plans are currently in the pipeline, only small maintenance or opportunity-driven investments as needed. - Debt will peak in the next 6-9 months due to ongoing CAPEX, followed by a deleveraging phase once production and installations stabilize. - Focus is on leveraging existing capacities and outside capacities to grow fabric and garment businesses without significant fresh CAPEX. - Potential to quickly add garment capacity if demand strengthens, as expansion there requires relatively low investment. - Strategic emphasis on intensifying use of value-added yarns in fabrics and garments, aiming to increase margin and achieve better returns on CAPEX. - No participation in recent government PLI scheme for fabric due to already sufficient capacity.
