- There is no immediate plan for equity dilution; the agenda for dilution is only for board approval and discussion. - The company has a timeline up to September 2027 to consider any equity dilution. - Future dilution, if done, will be at the right time and right valuation. - The expansion plans for FY '26 involving opening 20-25 new stores will primarily be funded through internal accruals and profits. - There has been a previous consideration of Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP) but it has been deferred for at least one more quarter. - No specific mention of new debt fundraising was made in the discussion; focus remains on using internal cash flows for growth. - The company currently holds Rs. 400 crores on the balance sheet and expects to generate another Rs. 300 crores next year to fund expansions.
