Fundraise plans

No
  • The company is not intending to raise any equity immediately. (Page 7)
  • Existing loans (~INR140 crores) are mainly in subsidiaries and are offset by equivalent liquidity; loans taken are mostly for maintaining banking relationships or future opportunities. (Page 7)
  • The company maintains a debt-free or very low-debt model on the main balance sheet, focusing on liquidity and internal accruals. (Pages 6-7)
  • For projects like Tardeo, construction finance is tied up by the developer (landlord), so loans do not burden Man Infra’s balance sheet directly. (Page 14)
  • The management emphasizes strong cashflows and liquidity of INR300 crores plus as of March 2023, with no immediate plans for fresh fundraising via debt or equity. (Pages 6, 16)
  • For US projects, no further capital infusion is expected for at least one year, as the company has already invested around $29 million with $15 million kept as liquidity. (Page 16, 19)
