Fundraise plans

No
  • No decision has yet been made on raising equity capital; if any such plans arise, they will be announced in due course.
  • The Rs. 150-160 Crores CAPEX planned over the current and next year is targeted to be funded through internal accruals and debt.
  • Current secured term loans stand at approximately Rs. 70 Crores and are expected to remain stable over the next few years.
  • The company is paying back around Rs. 30 Crores of debt annually and aims to reduce the debt-to-equity ratio further from the current 0.9 times.
  • Supplier's credit is also utilized, which postpones immediate debt recognition on the books, allowing manageable repayment schedules.
