FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Draft Letter of Offer that are not statements of historical fact constitute
‘forward-looking statements’. Investors can generally identify forward-looking statements by terminology such
as ‘aim’, ‘anticipate’, ‘believe’, ‘continue’, ‘can’, ‘could’, ‘estimate’, ‘expect’, ‘expected to’ ‘intend’, ‘is likely’,
‘may’, ‘objective’, ‘plan’, ‘potential’, ‘project’, ‘pursue’, ‘shall’, ‘should’, ‘will’, ‘would’, or other words or
phrases of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe the strategies, objectives, plans or goals of our
Company are also forward-looking statements. However, these are not the exclusive means of identifying
forward-looking statements.
All statements regarding our Company’s expected financial conditions, result of operations, business plans and
prospects are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements as to our
Company’s business strategy, planned projects, revenue and profitability (including, without limitation, any
financial or operating projections or forecasts), new business and other matters discussed in this Draft Letter of
Offer that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements contained in this Draft Letter of Offer
(whether made by our Company or any third party), are predictions and involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of
our Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements or other projections. All forward-looking statements are subject to
risks, uncertainties and assumptions about our Company that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those contemplated by the relevant forward-looking statement. Important factors that could cause actual results
to differ materially from our Company’s expectations include, among others:
For further discussion of factors that could cause the actual results to differ from our estimates and expectations,
see “Risk Factors”, “Our Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and
Results of Operations” beginning on pages 21, 58 and 61 respectively, of this Draft Letter of Offer. By their
nature, certain market risk disclosures are only estimates and could be materially different from what actually
occurs in the future. As a result, actual gains or losses could materially differ from those that have been estimated.
We cannot assure investors that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements will prove to be
correct. Given these uncertainties, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking
statements and not to regard such statements as a guarantee of future performance.
Forward-looking statements reflect the current views of our Company as of the date of this Draft Letter of Offer
and are not a guarantee of future performance. These statements are based on the management’s beliefs and
assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Although we believe the assumptions
upon which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of these assumptions could prove to
be inaccurate, and the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions could be incorrect. Neither our
Company, nor our Directors, our Promoters, the Syndicate Member(s) or any of their respective affiliates or
advisors have any obligation to update or otherwise revise any statements reflecting circumstances arising after
the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of underlying events, even if the underlying assumptions do not come
to fruition.

developments from the date of this Draft Letter of Offer until the time of receipt of the listing and trading
permissions from the Stock Exchange.

Though heterogeneous, NBFCs can be broadly classified into three categories, viz., asset finance companies
(such as equipment leasing and hire purchase), loan companies and investment companies. A separate category
of NBFCs, called the residuary non-banking companies (RNBCs), also exists as it has not been categorised into
any one of the above referred three categories. Besides, there are miscellaneous non-banking companies (Chit
Fund), mutual benefit financial companies (Nidhis and unnotified Nidhis) and housing finance companies. As
of March 31, 2024, there were 9,327NBFCs registered with the RBI categorized as Asset Finance Companies,
Loan Companies, Infrastructure Finance Companies (IFCs), Systematically Important Core Investment
Company (NBFC – CIC – ND – SI), Infrastructure Debt Fund (NBFC – IDF) and Micro Finance Institutions
(NBFC – MFIs).
For further details, please refer to the chapter titled “Industry Overview” at page 53 of this Draft Letter of Offer.

YEAR
Our Company has not issued Equity Shares for consideration other than cash during the period of one year
preceding the date of this Draft Letter of Offer.
20
SECTION II: RISK FACTORS
An investment in the Equity Shares involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider all the
information in this Draft Letter of Offer, including the risks and uncertainties described below, before making
an investment in the Equity Shares. In making an investment decision, prospective investors must rely on their
own examination and the terms of the Issue including the merits and risks involved. The risks described below
are not the only ones relevant to us, our Equity Shares, the industry or the segment in which we operate.
Additional risks and uncertainties, not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may arise or
may become material in the future and may also impair our business, results of operations and financial
condition. If any of the following risks, or other risks that are not currently known or are now deemed immaterial,
actually occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be adversely
affected, the trading price of our Equity Shares could decline, and as prospective investors, you may lose all or
part of your investment. You should consult your tax, financial and legal advisors about particular consequences
to you of an investment in this Issue. The financial and other related implications of the risk factors, wherever
quantifiable, have been disclosed in the risk factors mentioned below. However, there are certain risk factors
where the financial impact is not quantifiable and, therefore, cannot be disclosed in such risk factors.
To obtain a complete understanding, you should read this section in conjunction with the sections “Industry
Overview”, “Our Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of
Operations” on pages 53, 58 and 82 respectively. The industry-related information disclosed in this section has
been derived from publicly available documents from various sources believed to be reliable, but their accuracy
and completeness are not guaranteed, and their reliability cannot be assured. Neither our Company, nor any
other person connected with the Issue has independently verified the information in the industry report or other
publicly available information cited in this section.
This Draft Letter of Offer also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, assumptions, estimates
and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements as a result of certain factors, including the considerations described below and, in the section titled
“Forward-Looking Statements” on page 17.
Unless specified or quantified in the relevant risk factors below, we are not in a position to quantify the financial
or other implications of any of the risks described in this section. Unless the context requires otherwise, the
financial information of our Company has been derived from the Restated Financial Information, prepared in
accordance with Ind AS and the Companies Act and restated in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations.
Materiality:
The Risk Factors have been determined on the basis of their materiality. The following factors have been
considered for determining the materiality of Risk Factors:
Some events may not be material individually but may be found material collectively;
Some events may have material impact qualitatively instead of quantitatively; and
Some events may not be material at present but may have a material impact in future.
The financial and other related implications of risks concerned, wherever quantifiable have been disclosed in
the risk factors mentioned below. However, there are risk factors where the impact may not be quantifiable and
hence, the same has not been disclosed in such risk factors. The numbering of the risk factors has been done to
facilitate ease of reading and reference and does not in any manner indicate the importance of one risk over
another.
In this Draft Letter of Offer, any discrepancies in any table between total and sums of the amount listed are due
to rounding off.
1. We operate in a highly competitive industry and our inability to compete effectively may adversely affect
our business.
We operate in a highly competitive industry. Given the diversity of our businesses, and the products and
services offered by us, we face competition from the full spectrum of public sector banks, private sector
21
banks (including foreign banks), financial institutions, captive finance affiliates of players in various
industries, small finance banks and other NBFCs. Many of our competitors may have greater resources than
we do, may be larger in terms of business volume and may have significantly lower cost of funds compared
to us. They may also have greater geographical reach, long-standing partnerships and may offer their
customers other forms of financing that we may not be able to provide. Competition in Industry Overview
depends on, amongst others, the ongoing evolution of government and regulatory policies, the entry of new
participants and the extent to which there is consolidation among banks andfinancial institutions in India. In
relation to the advisory and investment banking services we offer, we also face competition from banks,
boutique investment bankers and consulting organizations. Potentially, these service providers could
compete with us for business as well as procurement of funds at competitive rates. We cannot assure you
that we will be able to react effectively to these or other market developments or compete effectively with
new and existing players in our increasingly competitive industry and our inability to compete effectively
may adversely affect our business.
2. Our business will require substantial funds, and any disruption in funding sources would have a material
adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.
Our liquidity and profitability are, in large part, dependent upon our timely access to, and costs associated
with raising capital including both debt and equity. Our business depends and will continue to depend on our
ability to access diversified low-cost funding sources. As a financial services company, we face certain
additional regulatory restrictions on our ability to obtain financing from banks. Further, under Indian Law,
foreign investors are subject to investment restrictions that may limit our ability to attract foreign investors
or capital from overseas investors. Pursuing our growth strategy and introducing new product offerings to
our customers will have an impact on our long-term capital requirements. With the growth of our business,
we may be increasingly reliant on funding from debt capital markets. The market for such funds is
competitive and our ability to obtain funds at competitive rates will depend on various factors. If we are
unable to access funds at an effective cost that is comparable to or lower than our competitors, we may not
be able to offer competitive interest rates for our loans. Our ability to raise funds on acceptable terms and at
competitive rates continues to depend on various factors, including the regulatory environment and policy
initiatives in India, lack of liquidity in the market, developments in the international markets affecting the
Indian economy, investors’ and/or lenders’ 22 perception of demand for debt and equity securities of NBFCs,
and our current and future results of operations and financial condition. If we are unable to obtain adequate
financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us and in a timely manner, our ability to grow or support our
business and to respond to business challenges could be limited and our business prospects, financial
condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
3. An increase in the level of our NPAs or our provisions may adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our management of credit risk involves having appropriate credit policies, underwriting standards, approval
processes, loan portfolio monitoring, collection and remedial management, provisioning policies and an
overall architecture for managing credit risk. However, even if our credit monitoring and risk management
policies and procedures are adequate and appropriately implemented, we may not be able to anticipate future
economic or financial developments or downturns, which could lead to an increase in our NPAs. If our NPAs
increase or the credit quality of our borrowers deteriorates, it could have an adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
4. Any disruption in our sources of funding or increase in costs of funding could adversely affect our
liquidity and financial condition
The liquidity and profitability of our business majorly depend on our timely access to, and the costs
associated with, raising funds. Our business thus depends and will continue to depend on our ability to
access a variety of funding sources. Further, our ability to compete effectively will depend, in part, on our
ability to maintain or increase our margins. Our margins are affected in part by our ability to continue to
secure low-cost funding at rates lower than the interest rates at which we lend to our customers. Our ability
to raise funds on acceptable terms and at competitive rates depends on various factors including our current
and future results of operations and financial condition, global and local macroeconomic conditions and the
effect of events such as a pandemic, our risk management policies, the shareholding of Promoters in our
Company, our credit ratings, our brand equity, the regulatory environment and policy initiatives in India
and developments in the international markets affecting the Indian economy. If we are unable to access
22
funds at an effective cost that is comparable to or lower than that of our competitors, our net interest
margins, income, and market share may be adversely affected.
Certain regulatory developments including the restrictions imposed on NBFCs by the RBI through a Master
Circular – Bank Finance to Non- Banking Financial Companies dated July 1, 2015 (the “Master Circular”)
may restrict our ability to obtain bank financing for specific activities. Pursuant to the Master Circular, the
RBI has imposed certain restrictions on banks providing financing to NBFCs. Under this Master Circular,
certain activities by NBFCs are ineligible for financing by banks, including certain types of discounting and
rediscounting of bills, current and long term investments in shares, debentures, loans and advances by
NBFCs to their subsidiaries and group companies, lending by NBFCs to individuals for subscribing to public
offerings and purchasing shares from the secondary market, unsecured loans, inter-corporate deposits
provided by NBFCs, and subscription to shares or debentures by NBFCs. In addition, the Master Circular
prohibits:
• banks from granting bridge loans of any nature, provide interim finance against capital or debenture
issues or in the form of loans of a temporary nature pending the raising of long-term funds from the
market by way of capital, deposits, or other means to any category of NBFCs;
• banks from accepting shares and debentures as collateral for secured loans granted to NBFCs; and
• banks from executing guarantees covering inter-Company deposits or loans that guarantee refund of
deposits or loans accepted by NBFCs. The Master Circular also requires that guarantees not be issued
by banks for the purpose of indirectly enabling the placement of deposits with NBFCs.
Changes in economic, regulatory and financial conditions or any lack of liquidity in the market could
adversely affect our ability to access funds at competitive rates, or at all, which could adversely affect our
liquidity and financial condition.
5. Our Company is a party to certain legal proceedings. Any adverse decision in such proceedings may
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our Company is a party to certain legal proceedings. These legal proceedings are pending at different levels
of adjudication before various courts, tribunals and forums. Mentioned below are the details of the
proceedings involving our Company, Promoter and Directors as on the date of this Draft Letter of Offer,
along with the amount involved, to the extent quantifiable, based on the materiality policy for litigations,
as approved by the Company in its Board Meeting.
For further details, please see the chapter titled “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” on
page 90 and 93.
6. The objects of the Issue are based on the internal estimates of our management and have not been
appraised by any bank or financial institution.
The objects of the Issue are based on management estimates and have not been appraised by any bank or
financial institution. Any inability on our part to effectively utilize the Issue proceeds could adversely affect
our financial results. Utilization of Issue proceeds would be disclosed to our Company’s shareholders in
the manner required under the SEBI LODR Regulations.
The Funds raised are further proposed to be utilised towards payment for the to augment our capital base.
23
For further details, please see to the section titled “Objects of the Issue” on page 47 of this Draft Letter of
Offer.
7. Any disruption in our sources of funding or an increase in costs of funding could adversely affect our
liquidity and financial condition.
The liquidity and profitability of our business majorly depend on our timely access to, and the costs
associated with, raising funds. Our business thus depends and will continue to depend on our ability to
access a variety of funding sources. Further, our ability to compete effectively will depend, in part, on our
ability to maintain or increase our margins. Our margins are affected in part by our ability to continue to
secure low-cost funding at rates lower than the interest rates at which we lend to our customers. Our ability
to raise funds on acceptable terms and at competitive rates depends on various factors including our current
and future results of operations and financial condition, global and local macroeconomic conditions and the
effect of events such as a pandemic, our risk management policies, the shareholding of Promoter in our
Company, our credit ratings, our brand equity, the regulatory environment and policy initiatives in India
and developments in the international markets affecting the Indian economy. If we are unable to access
funds at an effective cost that is comparable to or lower than that of our competitors, our net interest
margins, income, and market share may be adversely affected.
Certain regulatory developments including the restrictions imposed on NBFCs by the RBI through a Master
Circular – Bank Finance to Non- Banking Financial Companies dated July 1, 2015 (the “Master Circular”)
may restrict our ability to obtain bank financing for specific activities. Pursuant to the Master Circular, the
RBI has imposed certain restrictions on banks providing financing to NBFCs. Under this Master Circular,
certain activities by NBFCs are ineligible for financing by banks, including certain types of discounting
and rediscounting of bills, current and long term investments in shares, debentures, loans and advances by
NBFCs to their subsidiaries and group companies, lending by NBFCs to individuals for subscribing to
public offerings and purchasing shares from the secondary market, unsecured loans, inter-corporate
deposits provided by NBFCs, and subscription to shares or debentures by NBFCs. In addition, the Master
Circular prohibits:
• banks from granting bridge loans of any nature, provide interim finance against capital or debenture
issues or in the form of loans of a temporary nature pending the raising of long-term funds from the
market by way of capital, deposits, or other means to any category of NBFCs;
• banks from accepting shares and debentures as collateral for secured loans granted to NBFCs; and
• banks from executing guarantees covering inter-Company deposits or loans that guarantee refund of
deposits or loans accepted by NBFCs. The Master Circular also requires that guarantees not be issued
by banks for the purpose of indirectly enabling the placement of deposits with NBFCs.
Changes in economic, regulatory and financial conditions or any lack of liquidity in the market could
adversely affect our ability to access funds at competitive rates, or at all, which could adversely affect our
liquidity and financial condition.
8. We are affected by volatility in interest rates for both our lending and fund raisings operations, which
could cause our net interest income to decline and adversely affect our results of operations and
profitability.
Our net interest margins are affected by any volatility in interest rates in our lending operations. Interest
rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond our control, including competition from other banks and
NBFCs, the monetary policies of the RBI, deregulation of the financial sector in India, domestic and
international economic and political conditions and other factors, which have historically generated a
relatively high degree of volatility in interest rates in India. Persistently high inflation in India may
discourage the Government from implementing policies that would cause interest rates to decrease.
Moreover, if there is an increase in the interest rates, we pay on our borrowings that we are unable to pass
to our customers, we may find it difficult to compete with our competitors, who may have access to funds
at a lower cost or lower cost deposits. To the extent our borrowings are linked to market interest rates, we
may have to pay interest at a higher rate than lenders that borrow only at fixed interest rates. Further, our
ability to pass on any increase in interest rates to borrowers may also be constrained by regulations
implemented by the Government or the RBI. In a declining interest rate environment, if our cost of funds
does not decline simultaneously or to the same extent as the yield on our interest-earning assets, it could
lead to a reduction in our net interest income and net interest margin.
24
9. We, as an NBFC, have to adhere to several regulatory norms prescribed by RBI from time to time. Any
non-compliance with such norms or any adverse change in the norms could negatively affect our
Company’s operations, business, financial condition and the trading price of Equity Shares.
NBFCs in India are subject to strict regulation and supervision by the RBI. We require certain approvals,
licenses, registrations and permissions for operating our business. Such approvals, licenses, registrations
and permissions must be maintained / renewed over time, and we may have to comply with certain
conditions in relation to these approvals. Moreover, the applicable requirements may change from time.
We are required to obtain and maintain a license for carrying on business as an NBFC. If we fail to obtain
or retain any of these approvals or licenses, or renewals thereof, in a timely manner, or at all, our business
may be adversely affected. RBI has the authority to change these norms/ criteria as and when required.
Inability to meet the prescribed norms/ criteria, can adversely affect the operations and profitability of our
Company.
10. Our success depends largely on our senior management and our ability to attract and retain our key
personnel. Any significant changes in the key managerial personnel may affect the performance of our
Company.
Our success depends on the continued services and performance of the members of the senior management
team and other key employees. Competition for senior and experienced personnel in the industry is intense
at present. The loss of the services of senior management or other key personnel could seriously impair our
ability to continue to manage and expand our business, which may adversely affect our financial condition.
11. Our Company has experienced negative cash flow in operating activities in the past and may continue
to do so in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial
condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Our Company has experienced negative net cash flow in operating activities in the recent past, the details
of which are provided below:

prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
12. Our Company is subject to periodic inspections by the RBI. Non-compliance with observations made
during any such inspections could result in penalties and fines on our Company and/or our Subsidiary
and could adversely affect the reputation of the business of our Company
Our Company is subject to periodic inspections by the RBI of our Company’s books of accounts and other
records for the purpose of verifying the correctness or completeness of any statement, information or
particulars furnished to the RBI or for obtaining any information, which our Company have failed to furnish
when called upon to do so. The RBI conducts an annual inspection of our Company’s books of accounts
and other records relating to our financial position every year under Section 45N of the RBI Act. RBI
inspections are a regular exercise and are carried out periodically by RBI for banks, financial institutions
and NBFCs. While our Company has responded to the RBI observations, and has taken steps or is in the
process of taking steps to rectify the identified deficiencies, if our Company fails to comply with the RBI’s
observations or all of the terms and conditions stipulated in the observations, or fails to seek waivers or
extensions of time for complying with these terms and conditions, the RBI may take adverse actions against
our Company, such as revoking its registration/ licence or placing stringent restrictions on our Company’s
operations in case of any major non-compliance with RBI guidelines, circulars or notifications, as the case
may be. Any major failure to meet the RBI’s directions could materially and adversely affect our
Company’s pending applications or requests with the RBI and our Company’s ability to obtain the
regulatory permits and approvals required to expand our business or result in the interruption of all or some
25
of our Company’s operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our Company’s business,
financial condition and results of operations.
13. Any regulatory actions and penalties for any past or future non-compliance may adversely affect our
business or reputation, or both.
We have to comply with numerous regulatory filings, maintenance of record etc under the Companies Act,
2013, Securities Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements), 2015
(“Listing Regulation”), Securities Exchange Board of India (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and
Takeover) Regulation, 2011 and any other laws and regulation as applicable. While we have been generally
compliant and there have been no penalties in the form of fines or other punitive action in the past, any non
-compliance of the applicable laws they may impose the penalty on the Company. Such penalty may impact
the profitability of the Company.
14. The deployment of funds is entirely at our discretion and as per the details mentioned in the section titled
‘Objects of the Issue’
As the Issue size is not more than ₹10,000 lakhs, under Regulation 82 of the SEBI (ICDR) Regulations it
is not required that a monitoring agency be appointed by our Company, for overseeing the deployment and
utilisation of funds raised through this Issue. Therefore, the deployment of the funds towards the Objects
of this Issue is entirely at the discretion of our Board of Directors and is not subject to monitoring by
external independent agency. Our Board of Directors along with the Audit Committee will monitor the
utilisation of Issue proceeds and shall have the flexibility in applying the proceeds of this Issue.
15. Internal or external fraud, dishonesty, or misconduct by our personnel could have a negative impact on
our reputation and financial results.
Misconduct by our employees could bind us to transactions that exceed authorised limits or present
unacceptable risks, and our employees could conceal unauthorised or unlawful activities from us. Employee
misconduct could also involve front running in securities markets or the improper use or disclosure of
confidential information or non-compliance with insider trading rules, which could result in regulatory
sanctions and serious reputational or financial harm. It is not always possible to deter fraud or misconduct
by employees, and the precautions we have taken and the systems we have put in place to prevent and deter
such activities may not be effective in all cases. Any instances of fraud or misconduct could adversely affect
our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.
16. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash
flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditure and restrictive covenants in our financing
arrangements.
We have not paid any dividend during the last 3 years. Our Company may retain all our future earnings, if
any, for use in the operations, and expansion of our business. As a result, we may not declare dividends in
the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends will be at
the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on factors that our Board of Directors deem
relevant, including among others, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, business
prospects and any other financing arrangements. Accordingly, realization of a gain on shareholder’s
investments may largely depend upon the appreciation of the price of our Equity Shares. There can be no
assurance that our Equity Shares will appreciate.
17. We require a number of approvals, NOCs, licenses in ordinary course of our Business.
We need to apply for renewal of approvals which expire, from time to time, as and when required in the
ordinary course of our business. Any failure to renew the approvals that will expire, or to failure/delay to
apply for and obtain the required approvals, licences, registrations or permits, or any suspension or
revocation of any of the approvals, licences, registrations and permits that have been or may be issued to
us, could result in delaying the operations of our business, which may adversely affect our business,
financial condition, results of operations and prospects. We cannot assure you that the approvals, licences,
registrations and permits issued to us would not be suspended or revoked in the event of non-compliance
or alleged non-compliance with any terms or conditions thereof, or pursuant to any regulatory action.
26
18. Our Company does not have any logo and therefore it is not a registered trademark, and we may be
unable to adequately protect our trademarks and an inability to protect or use our intellectual property
rights may adversely affect our business.
Our Company does not have a logo and it is not a registered trademark. Accordingly, we may not be able
to safeguard it from infringement or passing off. Further, we do not own any other trademark and therefore
our ability to attract and retain customers is dependent upon public perception and recognition of the quality
associated with our Company and promoter. Our success depends on our ability to maintain the brand image
of our existing products and effectively build our brand image for new products and brand extensions. We
currently do not have any form of intellectual property protection in relation to the designs of our products
and consequently do not enjoy the statutory protections accorded to such designs in India and cannot
prohibit the use of such designs by anybody by means of statutory protection. Any unauthorized usage by
a third party of logo that is being used by us may create confusion in the market as to our identity and/or
may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, goodwill, business prospects and results of operation
too. Such infringement will hamper our business as prospective clients may go to such user of mark and
our revenues may decrease.
We may also face allegations that we have infringed the trademarks, copyrights, patents or other intellectual
property rights of third parties, including from our competitors or non-practicing entities, for passing off.
Any adverse decision by the adjudicating authority may prevent us from registering and using such
trademarks. Further, patent and other intellectual property litigation may be protracted and expensive, and
the results are difficult to predict and may require us to stop offering certain products or product features,
acquire licenses, which may not be available at a commercially reasonable price or at all, or modify our
products, product features, processes or websites while we develop non-infringing substitutes.
19. The Companydoes not own the premises on which its registered office is situated. Any failure on the part
of the lessee to renew the lease agreement or any disruption of our rights as a lessee or termination of
the agreements with the lessors would adversely impact our business.
The premises on which the Registered Office of the Company is situated is not owned by us. The premises
belong to our promoters, and we do not have a formal lease agreement or pay rent for the occupation of the
premises. The owners may demand that we vacate the premises at any point and in that event, the Company
would need to arrange for the Registered office on an urgent basis at such rent as may be applicable as per
the market rate applicable upon happening of such event which may adversely affect our profitability as
additional expenditure would need to be incurred for the same.
There is no assurance that our Company will be able to enter into the lease agreements with third parties in
a timely manner and in favourable terms or at all. Further, there is no assurance that we will not face any
disruption in our activities which could adversely affect our business operations.
20. We have in the past entered into related party transactions and we may continue to do so in the future.
We have entered into certain related party transactions as on the date of this Draft Letter of Offer. While
we believe that all our related party transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, we cannot
assure you that we may not have achieved more favorable terms had such transactions been entered into
with unrelated parties. There can be no assurance that such transactions, individually or taken together, will
not have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition,
including because of potential conflicts of interest or otherwise. For further details, please refer to the
chapter titled ― “Financial Information- Related Party Transactions” at page 88.
21. Your holdings may be diluted by additional issuances of equity by us, which may adversely affect the
market price of our Equity Shares.
Any future issuance of our Equity Shares may dilute the holdings of investors in our Equity Shares, which
could adversely affect the market price of our Equity Shares. Additionally, sales of a large number of our
Equity Shares by our principal shareholder could adversely affect the market price of our Equity Shares.
The perception that any such sale may occur could also adversely affect the market price of our Equity
Shares.
27
22. We are subject to cyber security risks and security breaches and may incur increasing costs in an effort
to minimize those risks and to respond to cyber incidents.
A number of other companies have disclosed cyber-attacks and security breaches, some of which have
involved intentional attacks. Attacks may be targeted at us, our customers, or both. Although we devote
significant resources to maintain and regularly upgrade our systems and processes that are designed to
protect the security of our computer systems, software, networks and other technology assets and the
confidentiality, integrity and availability of information belonging to us and our customers, our security
measures may not provide absolute security. Despite our efforts to ensure the integrity of our systems, it is
possible that we may not be able to anticipate or to implement effective preventive measures against all
security breaches of these types, especially because the techniques used change frequently or are not
recognized until launched, and because cyber-attacks can originate from a wide variety of sources,
including third parties outside the Company such as persons who are involved with organized crime or
associated with external service providers or who may be linked to terrorist organizations or hostile foreign
governments. A successful penetration or circumvention of the security of our systems could cause serious
negative consequences, including significant disruption of our operations, misappropriation of our
confidential information or that of our customers, or damage to our computers or systems or those of our
customers and counterparties, and could result in violations of applicable privacy and other laws, financial
loss to us or to our customers, loss of confidence in our security measures, customer dissatisfaction,
significant litigation exposure, and affect to our reputation, all of which could have a material adverse effect
on us.
Our servers are also vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins, and similar
disruptions. We may need to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches or to address
problems caused by breaches. Security breaches, including any breach of our systems or by persons with
whom we have commercial relationships that result in the unauthorized release of customers’ or businesses’
personal information, could damage our reputation and expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible
liability.
23. Security breaches of customers’ confidential information that we store may harm our reputation and
expose us to liability.
We store customers’ bank information, credit information and other sensitive data. Any accidental or wilful
security breaches or other unauthorized access could cause the theft and criminal use of this data. Security
breaches or unauthorized access to confidential information could also expose us to liability related to the
loss of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity. If security
measures are breached because of third party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or if design
flaws in our software are exposed and exploited, and, as a result, a third party obtains unauthorized access
to customer data, our relationships with customers will be severely damaged, and we could incur significant
liability. Further, we engage with certain third-party service providers, and although our contracts with
them restrict the usage of client data and impose protective precautions, there can be no assurance that they
will abide by such contractual terms or that the contracts will be found to be in compliance with data
protection laws.
24. We rely on the accuracy and completeness of information concerning borrowers and counterparties for
credit evaluation and risk management. Any misrepresentation, inaccuracies, or omissions in such
material could have a negative impact on our business and financial results.
28
management measures may not be adequate to prevent or deter such activities in all cases, which may
adversely affect our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
There may be relatively less financial and credit information available on retail and rural individual
borrowers, micro, small and medium enterprises and in relation to the possibility of double-financing
obtained by any such clients, than may have been available in a more developed economy, and the
availability of such financial and credit information in India may be considered to suffer from an absence
of competitive pressure at present.
25. We do not have any insurance policy and hence we will not be protected against any losses or damage.
We currently do not have any insurance policies and hence we will be covered against any loss or damage
that we may incur during the course of our business.
26. Our inability to completely detect money laundering and other illicit actions or detect the same in a timely
manner or at all may expose us to extra responsibility and affect our business and reputation.
In India, we must follow all applicable anti-money laundering ("AML") and anti-terrorism laws and
regulations. We bear the risk of failing to follow the statutory know your customer ("KYC") requirements,
as well as fraud and money laundering by dishonest customers, in the ordinary course of our business.
Despite having internal rules, processes, and controls in place to prevent and identify any AML activity and
maintain KYC compliance, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to entirely manage instances of any
possible or attempted violation. Any failure or ineffectiveness of our control system to detect such activities
completely and immediately may subject us to regulatory action, including fines and penalties, and have a
negative impact on our business and reputation.
27. As we expand our lending business, we may encounter asset-liability mismatches, which might
negatively impact our cash flows, financial condition, and results of operations .
As we expand our lending operations, we may encounter liquidity concerns due to mismatches in the
maturity of our assets and obligations. If we are unable to obtain additional borrowings or renew our
existing credit facilities in a timely and cost-effective manner, or at all, for matching tenures of our loan
portfolio, it may result in mismatches between our assets and liabilities, which could harm our cash flows,
financial condition, and results of operations.
28. Failure to stay up to date with technological changes, as well as the uses and regulation of the internet,
might be detrimental to our Company.
The industry of delivering finance products and services via a mobile app or the internet is dynamic and
fresh. We must keep up with changing technical breakthroughs, customer and small company usage habits,
internet security threats, system failure or inadequacy hazards, and governmental regulation and taxation,
all of which could have a negative influence on our firm.
If we are unable to adequately react to such developments, decreased demand for loans as a result of higher
savings or income could result in a loss of revenues or a fall in profitability. The demand for loan products
in the markets we serve could fall as a result of a variety of factors, including regulatory restrictions that
limit customer access to specific products, the availability of competing or alternative products, or changes
in customers' financial circumstances, such as increases in income or savings. A shift in focus from
borrowing to saving would also lessen demand. Our revenues could be severely reduced if we fail to adjust
to a significant change in our clients' desire for, or access to, our financing products. Customers may refuse
or reject products whose changes make them less appealing or less available, even if we make adjustments
or launch new products to meet customer demand.
29. We have not commissioned an industry report for the disclosures made in the section titled ‘Our
Industry’ and made disclosures based on the data available on the internet and such third-party data has
not been independently verified by us.
We have neither commissioned an industry report, nor sought consent from the quoted website source for
the disclosures which need to be made in the section titled “Industry Overview” on page 53 of this Draft
Letter of Offer. We have made disclosures in the said section based on the relevant industry related data
29
available online for which relevant consents have not been obtained. We have not independently verified
such third-party data. We cannot assure you that any assumptions made are correct or will not change and,
accordingly, our position in the market may differ from that presented in this Letter of Offer. Further, the
industry data mentioned in this Letter of Offer or sources from which the data has been collected are not
recommendations to invest in our Company. Accordingly, investors should read the industry related
disclosure in this Letter of Offer in this context.
30. The outbreak of COVID-19, or outbreak of any other severe communicable disease could have a
potential impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The outbreak, or threatened outbreak, of any severe communicable disease (particularly COVID-19) could
materially adversely affect overall business sentiment and environment, particularly if such outbreak is
inadequately controlled. The spread of any severe communicable disease could adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations. The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in
authorities implementing several containment measures such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines,
and shutdowns. These measures may have an impact on the workforce and our operations and the operations
of our customers. A rapid increase in severe cases and deaths where measures taken by governments fail or
are lifted prematurely, may further cause significant economic disruption across India. The scope, duration
and frequency of such measures and the adverse effectsofCOVID-19remainuncertainandcouldbe severe.
Our ability to meet our ongoing disclosure obligations might be adversely affected, despite our best efforts.
If any of our employees were suspected of contracting COVID-19 or any other epidemic disease, this could
require us to quarantine some or all of these employees or disinfect the facilities used for our operations. In
addition, our revenue and profitability could be impacted to the extent that a natural disaster, health
epidemic or other outbreak harms the Indian economy in general.
The COVID – 19 outbreaks have significantly increased economic uncertainty. It is likely that the current
outbreak or continued spread of COVID-19 will cause an economic slowdown. The spread of COVID-19
has caused us to modify our business practices (including employee travel, employee work locations, and
cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions
as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees
and customers. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the
outbreak. The extent to which COVID-19 further impacts our results will depend on future developments,
which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge
concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions taken to contain the coronavirus or treat its
impact, among others. The degree to which COVID-19 may impact our results will depend on future
developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration
and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions taken to contain the outbreak or the ability to treat its
impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. The
above risks can threaten the safe operation of our facilities and cause disruption of operational activities,
loss of life, injuries and impact the well being of our people.
31. Other financial institutions or the Indian financial sector as a whole may have difficulties, which could
hurt our operations.
We are exposed to risks as a result of our involvement in the Indian financial system. Financial troubles
and other issues confronting Indian financial institutions may have an impact on this sector. Several Indian
financial institutions have had problems in recent years, and certain banks have also had major financial
and liquidity problems. Any significant problem or volatility in the Indian financial system could lead to a
negative market perception.
32. Political, economic or other factors that are beyond our control may have adversely affect our business
and results of operations.
The Indian economy is influenced by economic developments in other countries. These factors could
depress economic activity which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. Any financial disruption could have an adverse effect on our business and future
financial performance.
30
We are dependent on domestic, regional and global economic and market conditions. Our performance,
growth and market price of our Equity Shares are and will be dependent to a large extent on the health of
the economy in which we operate. There have been periods of slowdown in the economic growth of India.
Demand for our services may be adversely affected by an economic downturn in domestic, regional and
global economies.
Economic growth is affected by various factors including domestic consumption and savings, balance of
trade movements, namely export demand and movements in key imports, global economic uncertainty and
liquidity crisis, volatility in exchange currency rates, and annual rainfall which affects agricultural
production.
Consequently, any future slowdown in the Indian economy could harm our business, results of operations
and financial condition. Also, a change in the government or a change in the economic and deregulation
policies could adversely affect economic conditions prevalent in the areas in which we operate in general
and our business in particular and high rates of inflation in India could increase our costs without
proportionately increasing our revenues, and as such decrease our operating margins.
33. A slowdown in economic growth in India could cause our business to suffer.
We are incorporated in India, and all of our assets and employees are located in India. As a result, we are
highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our results of operations are significantly
affected by factors influencing the Indian economy. A slowdown in the Indian economy could adversely
affect our business, including our ability to grow our assets, the quality of our assets, and our ability to
implement our strategy.
Factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and hence our results of operations, may include:
Any slowdown in the Indian economy or in the growth of the sectors we participate in or future volatility
in global commodity prices could adversely affect our borrowers and contractual counterparties. This in
turn could adversely affect our business and financial performance and the price of our Equity Shares.
34. Financial instability in both Indian and international financial markets could adversely affect our
results of operations and financial condition.
The Indian financial market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in
other countries, particularly in emerging market in Asian countries. Financial turmoil in Asia, Europe, the
United States and elsewhere in the world in recent years has affected the Indian economy. Although
economic conditions are different in each country, investors’ reactions to developments in one country can
have an adverse effect on the securities of companies in other countries. A loss in investor confidence in
the financial systems of other emerging markets may cause increased volatility in in the Indian economy in
general. Any global financial instability, including further deterioration of credit conditions in the U.S.
market, could also have a negative impact on the Indian economy. Financial disruptions may occur again
and could harm our results of operations and financial condition.
The Indian economy is also influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries. This includes,
but is not limited to, the conditions in the United States, Europe and certain economies in Asia. Financial
turmoil in Asia and elsewhere in the world in recent years has affected the Indian economy. Any worldwide
financial instability may cause increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and, directly or indirectly,
adversely affect the Indian economy and financial sector and its business.
Although economic conditions vary across markets, loss of investor confidence in one emerging economy
31
may cause increased volatility across other economies, including India. Financial instability in other parts
of the world could have a global influence and thereby impact the Indian economy. Financial disruptions
in the future could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
The global credit and equity markets have experienced substantial dislocations, liquidity disruptions and
market corrections.
There are concerns that a tightening of monetary policy in emerging markets and some developed markets
will lead to a moderation in global growth. In response to such developments, legislators and financial
regulators in the United States and other jurisdictions, including India, have implemented a number of
policy measures designed to add stability to the financial markets. However, the overall long-term impact
of these and other legislative and regulatory efforts on the global financial markets is uncertain, and they
may not have had the intended stabilizing effects. Any significant financial disruption in the future could
have an adverse effect on our cost of funding, loan portfolio, business, future financial performance and the
trading price of the Equity Shares.
35. Inflation in India could have an adverse effect on our profitability and if significant, on our financial
condition.
Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue in the future.
India has experienced high inflation in the recent past. Increased inflation can contribute to an increase in
interest rates and increased costs to our business, including increased costs of salaries, and other expenses
relevant to our business.
High fluctuations in inflation rates may make it more difficult for us to accurately estimate or control our
costs. Any increase in inflation in India can increase our expenses, which we may not be able to pass on to
our customers, whether entirely or in part, and the same may adversely affect our business and financial
condition. In particular, we might not be able to reduce our costs or increase our rates to pass the increase
in costs on to our customers. In such case, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition may be adversely affected.
Further, the GoI has previously initiated economic measures to combat high inflation rates, and it is unclear
whether these measures will remain in effect. There can be no assurance that Indian inflation levels will not
worsen in the future.
36. Foreign investors are subject to foreign investment restrictions under Indian law that limits our ability
to attract foreign investors, which may adversely impact the market price of the Equity Shares.
As an Indian company, we are subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign currencies,
including those specified under FEMA. Such regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources for our
projects under development and hence could constrain our ability to obtain financing on competitive terms
and refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, we cannot assure you that the required approvals will be
granted to us without onerous conditions, or at all. Limitations on foreign debt may adversely affect our
business growth, results of operations and financial condition.
Further, under the foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfers of shares between non-
residents and residents are freely permitted (subject to certain exceptions) if they comply with the pricing
guidelines and reporting requirements specified by the RBI. If the transfer of shares, which are sought to
be transferred, is not in compliance with such pricing guidelines or reporting requirements or fall under any
of the exceptions referred to above, then the prior approval of the RBI will be required. Additionally,
shareholders who seek to convert the Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign currency
and repatriate that foreign currency from India will require a no objection/ tax clearance certificate from
the income tax authority. There can be no assurance that any approval required from the RBI, or any other
government agency can be obtained on any particular terms or at all.
37. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating by an independent agency may harm our ability to raise
financing.
Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings international debt by international rating agencies may
adversely affect our ability to raise additional overseas financing and the interest rates and other commercial
terms at which such additional financing is available. This could have an adverse effect on our ability to
32
fund our growth on favourable terms or at all, and consequently adversely affect our business and financial
performance and the price of our Equity Shares.
38. The occurrence of natural or man-made disasters could adversely affect our results of operations, cash
flows and financial condition. Hostilities, terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other acts of violence could
adversely affect the financial markets and our business.
The occurrence of natural disasters, including cyclones, storms, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes,
fires, explosions, pandemic disease and man-made disasters, including acts of terrorism and military actions
including wars amongst nations like the current Russia Ukraine conflict could adversely affect our results
of operations, cash flows or financial condition. In addition, any deterioration in international relations,
especially between India and its neighbouring countries, may result in investor concern regarding regional
stability which could adversely affect the price of the Equity Shares. In addition, India has witnessed local
civil disturbances in recent years and it is possible that future civil unrest as well as other adverse social,
economic or political events in India could have an adverse effect on our business.
Such incidents could also create a greater perception that investment in Indian companies involves a higher
degree of risk and could have an adverse effect on our business and the market price of the Equity Shares.
39. Our Company will not distribute the Draft Letter of Offer and Application Form to certain overseas
Shareholders who have not provided an address in India for service of documents.
Our Company will dispatch the Letter of Offer, the Abridged Draft Letter of Offer, Rights Entitlement
Letter and Application Form (the “Offering Materials”) to such Shareholders who have provided an
address in India for the service of documents. The Offering Materials will not be distributed to addresses
outside India on account of restrictions that apply to the circulation of such materials in various overseas
jurisdictions. However, the Companies Act requires companies to serve documents at any address, which
may be provided by the members as well as through e- mail. Presently, there is a lack of clarity under the
Companies Act and the rules thereunder, with respect to the distribution of Offering Materials to retail
individual shareholders in overseas jurisdictions where such distribution may be prohibited under
applicable laws of such jurisdictions.
40. SEBI has by way of circulars dated January 22, 2020, May 6, 2020, January 19, 2021, and October 01,
2021, streamlined the process of rights issues. You should follow the instructions carefully, as stated in
such SEBI circulars and in this Draft Letter of Offer.
The concept of crediting Rights Entitlements into the demat accounts of the Eligible Equity Shareholders
has recently been introduced by the SEBI. Accordingly, the process for such Rights Entitlements has been
recently devised by capital market intermediaries. Eligible Equity Shareholders are encouraged to exercise
caution, carefully follow the requirements as stated in the SEBI circulars dated January 22, 2020, May 6,
2020, January 19, 2021, April 22, 2021, and October 01, 2021, and ensure completion of all necessary steps
in relation to providing/updating their demat account details in a timely manner. For details, see “Terms of
the Issue” on page 100 of this Draft Letter of Offer.
In accordance with Regulation 77A of the SEBI ICDR Regulations read with the SEBI Rights Issue
Circular, the credit of Rights Entitlements and Allotment of Rights Equity Shares shall be made in
dematerialized form only. Prior to the Issue Opening Date, our Company shall credit the Rights
Entitlements to (i) the demat accounts of the Eligible Equity Shareholders holding the Equity Shares in
dematerialised form; and (ii) a demat suspense escrow account opened by our Company, for the Eligible
Equity Shareholders which would comprise Rights Entitlements relating to (a) Equity Shares held in a
demat suspense account pursuant to Regulation 39 of the SEBI Listing Regulations; or (b) Equity Shares
held in the account of IEPF authority; or (c) the demat accounts of the Eligible Equity Shareholder which
are frozen or details of which are unavailable with our Company or with the Registrar on the Record Date;
or (d) credit of the Rights Entitlements returned/reversed/failed; or (e) the ownership of the Equity Shares
currently under dispute, including any court proceedings.
33
41. Failure to exercise or sell the Rights Entitlements will cause the Rights Entitlements to lapse without
compensation and result in a dilution of shareholding.
The Rights Entitlements that are not exercised prior to the end of the Issue Closing Date will expire and
become null and void, and Eligible Equity Shareholders will not receive any consideration for them. The
proportionate ownership and voting interest in our Company of Eligible Equity Shareholders who fail (or
are not able) to exercise their Rights Entitlements will be diluted. Even if you elect to sell your unexercised
Rights Entitlements, the consideration you receive for them may not be sufficient to fully compensate you
for the dilution of your percentage ownership of the equity share capital of our Company that may be caused
as a result of the Issue. Renouncee(s) may not be able to apply in case of failure in completion of
renunciation through off-market transfer in such a manner that the Rights Entitlements are credited to the
demat account of the Renouncee(s) prior to the Issue Closing Date. Further, in case, the Rights Entitlements
do not get credited in time, in case of On Market Renunciation, such Renouncee will not be able to apply
in this Issue with respect to such Rights Entitlements.
42. Any future issuance of the Equity Shares, or convertible securities by our Company may dilute your
future shareholding and sales of the Equity Shares by our Promoters or other major shareholders of
our Company may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.
Any future issuance of the Equity Shares, or convertible securities by our Company, including through
exercise of employee stock options or restricted stock units may lead to dilution of your shareholding in
our Company, adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares and our ability to raise capital through
an issue of our securities. Further, any future sales of the Equity Shares by the Promoters and members of
our Promoter Group, or other major shareholders of our Company may adversely affect the trading price
of the Equity Shares.
43. You may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity Shares.
Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity
shares in an Indian company are generally taxable in India. However, any gain realized on the sale of listed
equity shares on or before March 31, 2018 on a stock exchange held for more than 12 months was not
subject to long term capital gains tax in India if STT was paid on the sale transaction and, additionally, as
stipulated by the Finance Act, 2017, STT had been paid at the time of acquisition of such equity shares on
or after October 1, 2004, except in the case of such acquisitions of equity shares which are not subject to
STT, as notified by the Central Government under notification no. 43/2017/F. No. 370142/09/2017-TPL
on June 5, 2017. However, the Finance Act, 2018, has now levied taxes on long-term capital gains arising
from sale of equity shares. However, where specified conditions are met, such long-term capital gains are
only taxed to the extent they exceed Rs. 100,000.00 and unrealized capital gains earned up to January 31,
2018, continue to be exempt. Accordingly, you may be subject to payment of long-term capital gains tax
in India, in addition to payment of STT, on the sale of any Equity Shares held for more than 12 months.
STT will be levied on and collected by a domestic stock exchange on which the Equity Shares are sold.
Further, any gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less will be
subject to short-term capital gains tax in India. Capital gains arising from the sale of the equity shares will
be exempt from taxation in India in cases where the exemption from taxation in India is provided under a
treaty between India and the country of which the seller is resident. Generally, Indian tax treaties do not
limit India’s ability to impose tax on capital gains. As a result, residents of other countries may be liable
for tax in India as well as in their own jurisdiction on a gain upon the sale of the equity Shares.
44. You may not receive the Equity Shares that you subscribe to the Issue until fifteen days after the date on
which this Issue closes, which will subject you to market risk.
The Equity Shares that you subscribe in the Issue may not be credited to your demat account with the
depository participants until approximately 15 days from the Issue Closing Date. You can start trading such
Equity Shares only after receipt of the listing and trading approval in respect thereof. There can be no
assurance that the Equity Shares allocated to you will be credited to your demat account, or that trading in
the Equity Shares will commence within the specified time period, subjecting you to market risk for such
period.
45. There is no guarantee that our Equity Shares will be listed in a timely manner or at all, which may
adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.
34
In accordance with Indian law and practice, final approval for listing and trading of the Equity Shares will
not be granted by the Stock Exchange until after those Equity Shares have been issued and allotted.
Approval will require all relevant documents authorizing the issuing of Equity Shares to be submitted.
There could be a failure or delay in listing the Equity Shares on Stock Exchanges. Any failure or delay in
obtaining the approval would restrict your ability to dispose of your Equity Shares. Further, historical
trading prices, therefore, may not be indicative of the prices at which the Equity Shares will trade in the
future which may adversely impact the ability of our shareholders to sell the Equity Shares or the price at
which shareholders may be able to sell their Equity Shares at that point of time.
46. Holders of Equity Shares could be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian
law and could thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position.
Under the Companies Act, 2013, any company incorporated in India must offer its holders of equity shares
pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of shares to maintain their existing
ownership percentages prior to the issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have
been waived by the adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-fourths of the shares voted on such
resolution, unless our Company has obtained government approval to issue without such rights. However,
if the law of the jurisdiction that you are in does not permit the exercise of such pre-emptive rights without
us filing an offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in such jurisdiction,
you will be unable to exercise such pre-emptive rights unless we make such a filing. We may elect not to
file a registration statement in relation to pre-emptive rights otherwise available by Indian law to you. To
the extent that you are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in respect of the Equity Shares, your
proportional interests in us would be reduced.
47. Fluctuation in the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies may adversely affect
the value of our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.
On listing, our Equity Shares will be quoted in Indian Rupees on the Stock Exchange. Any dividends in
respect of our Equity Shares will also be paid in Indian Rupees and subsequently converted into the relevant
foreign currency for repatriation, if required. Any adverse movement in currency exchange rates during the
time that it takes to undertake such conversion may reduce the net dividend to foreign investors. In addition,
any adverse movement in currency exchange rates during a delay in repatriating outside India the proceeds
from a sale of Equity Shares, for example, because of a delay in regulatory approvals that may be required
for the sale of Equity Shares may reduce the proceeds received by equity shareholders. For example, the
exchange rate between the Rupee and the U.S. dollar has fluctuated substantially in recent years and may
continue to fluctuate substantially in the future, which may adversely affect the trading price of our Equity
Shares and returns on our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.
48. Sale of Equity Shares by our Promoter or other significant shareholder(s) may adversely affect the
trading price of the Equity Shares.
Any instance of disinvestments of equity shares by our Promoter or by other significant shareholder(s) may
significantly affect the trading price of our Equity Shares. Further, our market price may also be adversely
affected even if there is a perception or belief that such sales of Equity Shares might occur.
49. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may be more limited than under the laws of other jurisdictions.
Indian legal principles related to corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities, and
shareholders’ rights may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction.
Shareholders’ rights including in relation to class actions, under Indian law may not be as extensive as
shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may have more difficulty
in asserting their rights as shareholder in an Indian company than as shareholder of a corporation in another
jurisdiction.

Indian Economy
Strong economic growth in the first quarter of FY23 helped India overcome the UK to become the fifth-largest
economy after it recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic shock. Nominal GDP or GDP at Current Prices in the
year 2023-24 is estimated at Rs. 293.90 lakh crores (US$ 3.52 trillion), against the First Revised Estimates (FRE)
of GDP for the year 2022-23 of Rs. 269.50 lakh crores (US$ 3.23 trillion). The growth in nominal GDP during
2023-24 is estimated at 9.1% as compared to 14.2% in 2022-23. Strong domestic demand for consumption and
investment, along with Government’s continued emphasis on capital expenditure are seen as among the key
driver of the GDP in the first half of FY24. During the period January-March 2024, India’s exports stood at US$
119.10 billion, with Engineering Goods (25.01%), Petroleum Products (17.88%) and Organic and Inorganic
Chemicals (7.65%) being the top three exported commodity. Rising employment and increasing private
consumption, supported by rising consumer sentiment, will support GDP growth in the coming months.
Future capital spending of the government in the economy is expected to be supported by factors such as tax
buoyancy, the streamlined tax system with low rates, a thorough assessment and rationalisation of the tariff
structure, and the digitization of tax filing. In the medium run, increased capital spending on infrastructure and
asset-building projects is set to increase growth multipliers. The contact-based services sector has demonstrated
promise to boost growth by unleashing the pent-up demand. The sector's success is being captured by a number
of HFIs (High-Frequency Indicators) that are performing well, indicating the beginnings of a comeback.
India has emerged as the fastest-growing major economy in the world and is expected to be one of the top three
economic powers in the world over the next 10-15 years, backed by its robust democracy and strong partnerships.
India's appeal as a destination for investments has grown stronger and more sustainable because of the current
period of global unpredictability and volatility, and the record amounts of money raised by India-focused funds
in 2022 are evidence of investor faith in the "Invest in India" narrative.

India has a diversified financial sector undergoing rapid expansion, both in terms of strong growth of existing
financial services firms and new entities entering the market. The sector comprises commercial banks, insurance
companies, non-banking financial companies, co-operatives, pension funds, mutual funds and other smaller
financial entities. The banking regulator has allowed new entities such as payment banks to be created recently,
thereby adding to the type of entities operating in the sector. However, the financial sector in India is
53
predominantly a banking sector with commercial banks accounting for more than 64% of the total assets held by
the financial system.
The Government of India has introduced several reforms to liberalise, regulate and enhance this industry. The
Government and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) have taken various measures to facilitate easy access to finance
for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). These measures include launching Credit Guarantee Fund
Scheme for MSMEs, issuing guidelines to banks regarding collateral requirements and setting up a Micro Units
Development and Refinance Agency (MUDRA). With a combined push by Government and private sector, India
is undoubtedly one of the world's most vibrant capital markets.

Historical Context
Historically, NBFCs have been a vital cornerstone of the Indian financial ecosystem as important financial
intermediaries channelizing savings and investments, especially for small-scale and retail sectors as well as
underserved areas and unbanked sectors of the Indian economy.
A Non-Banking Financial company (NBFC) is a company registered under the Companies Act, 1956 or under
Companies Act, 2013 engaged in the business of loans and advances, acquisition of
shares/stocks/bonds/debentures/securities issued by Government or local authority or other marketable securities
of a like nature, leasing, hire-purchase, insurance business, chit business but does not include any institution
whose principal business is that of agriculture activity, industrial activity, purchase or sale of any goods (other
than securities) or providing any services and sale/purchase/construction of immovable property. A non-banking
institution which is a company and has principal business of receiving deposits under any scheme or arrangement
in one lump sum or in instalments by way of contributions or in any other manner, is also a non-banking financial
company (Residuary non-banking company).
In terms of Section 45-IA of the RBI Act, 1934, no Non-banking Financial Company can commence or carry
on business of a non-banking financial institution without a) obtaining a certificate of registration from the Bank
and without having a Net Owned Funds of ₹ 25 lakhs (₹ Two crore since April 1999). However, in terms of the
powers given to the Bank, to obviate dual regulation, certain categories of NBFCs which are regulated by other
regulators are exempted from the requirement of registration with RBI viz. Venture Capital Fund/Merchant
Banking companies/Stock broking companies registered with SEBI, Insurance company holding a valid
Certificate of Registration issued by IRDA, Nidhi companies as notified under Section 620A of the Companies
Act, 1956, Chit companies as defined in clause (b) of Section 2 of the Chit Funds Act, 1982,Housing Finance
Companies regulated by National Housing Bank, Stock Exchange or a Mutual Benefit Company.
A Company incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956 and desirous of commencing business of non-banking
financial institution as defined under Section 45 I(a) of the RBI Act, 1934 should comply with the following:

(Source: https://www.rbi.org.in/Scripts/FAQView.aspx?Id=92)
Evolution
Over the years, NBFCs have evolved given the extensive changes in the regulatory framework for NBFCs in
India which have moved from simplified regulations to stringent and extensive regulations as well as towards
rationalisation per the currently revised NBFC regulatory framework. Given these high levels of regulation,
NBFCs have also emerged as preferred options to meet credit needs since the low cost of operations has provided
these NBFCs an edge over banks.
54
Financial Access and Supportive Government Schemes
Additionally, NBFCs have gradually become important mechanisms to fuel growth and entrepreneurship due to
the launch of government-backed schemes including Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana which has contributed to
a significant increase in the number of bank accounts.
These NBFCs have also been key in being able to mitigate and manage the spread of risks during times of
financial duress and have increasingly become recognized as complementary services to banks.
NBFCs have become integral for all business services, including loans and credit facilities, retirement planning,
money markets, underwriting and merger activities. As such these companies play an important role in providing
credit to the unorganized sector and for small borrowers at local level. Additionally, hire purchase finance is also
the largest activity of NBFCs and the rapid growth of NBFCs has gradually blurred the lines between banks and
NBFCs although commercial banks have retained importance. These NBFCs facilitate long term investment and
financing, which is challenging for banking sector, and the growth of NBFCs widens range of products available
for individuals/institutions with resources to invest.
Ongoing stress in public sector banks (PSUs) because of increasing bad debt, lending in rural areas deterioration
has provided NBFCs with the opportunity to increase presence. The success of these NBFCs vs. PSUs can be
attributed to product lines, lower cost, wider and effective reach, strong risk management capabilities to check
and control bad debts, and a better understanding of customer segments versus banks. NBFCs have witnessed
success in the passenger and commercial vehicle finance segments as well as growing AUM in personal loan
and housing finance sector, Additionally, improving macro-economic conditions, higher credit penetrations,
consumption themes and disruptive digital trends have influenced NBFC credit growth. Stress in public sector
units (PSUs), underlying credit demand, digital disruption for MSMEs and SMEs as well as increased
consumption and distribution access and sectors where traditional banks do not lend are major reasons for the
switch from traditional banks to NBFCs.
55
Present NBFC Classifications and Industry Structure
As of March 31, 2024, there were 9,327NBFCs registered with the RBI categorized as Asset Finance Companies,
Loan Companies, Infrastructure Finance Companies (IFCs), Systematically Important Core Investment
Company (NBFC – CIC – ND – SI), Infrastructure Debt Fund (NBFC – IDF) and Micro Finance Institutions
(NBFC – MFIs)
NBFCs have also been an integral cornerstone of key financing to MSMEs, and been driven by significant growth
in rural, small scale and unbanked sectors. Structural catalysts include a large vibrant start-up and entrepreneurial
ecosystem which has created NBFC demand and government policy initiatives such as Pradhan Mantri Yojana
and National Rural Financial plan further augmenting the industry. These include diversified financial needs of
Indian economy driven by growth in lending, credit, and vehicle financing. As a result of these growth drivers,
we see that NBFCs have seen bigger balance sheets & increasing public funds. Improved profitability ratios of
NBFCs have been observed for NBFC-ND-SIs across metrics for ROA, ROE and NIMs with impressive returns
Y-o-Y returns between 2019-2020. For NBFC-Ds the ROA has been relatively flat, ROE has declined while
NIMs improved Y-o-Y for 2019-2020.

• Business is highly regulated, and it may be adversely affected by future regulatory changes.
• Financial performance is vulnerable to interest rate risk, as most of the funding is from banking channels.
• Greater competition from NBFCs/banks/fintech could impact growth in AUM and profits.
NBFC segments provides huge growth opportunities particularly after the development of last few years. We
have witnessed reasonable degree of consolidation in the NBFC sector. Liability side stress in the sector has
largely reduced in last couple of years led by focussed efforts from the regulators side. With the passing of the
second COVID wave, the outlook is brightening. During the year under review, the balance sheet of NBFCs
expanded at a faster rate than a year ago, driven essentially by growth in credit and investments of NBFCs-ND-
SI.

situated. The office premises are owned by Chief Executive Officer who have given a No Objection for the use
of the premises. The owners of such premises may demand that we vacate the Registered Office at any point in
time and in that event, the Company would need to arrange for alternate premises on an urgent basis at such rent
as may be applicable as per the market rate applicable upon happening of such event which may adversely affect
our profitability as additional expenditure would need to be incurred for the same.
There is no assurance that our Company will be able to enter into the lease agreements in a timely manner.
Further, there is no assurance that we will not face any disruption in our operations in case of such termination.

"Notes to financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2024
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in Lakhs)"
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
Aastamangalam Finance Limited (Formerly known as Upasana Finance Limited) is a company limited by shares,
incorporated on 25.01.1985 and domiciled in India. The Company is engaged in the business of Lending. The
Company has its registered office located at No. 51, Hunters Road, Choolai, Chennai 600112.
The company is a Non-Deposit taking Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) registered with the Reserve
Bank of India with effect from 2nd February 2007, with Registration No. B-07-00421. The Company is classified
as NBFC - Loan Company.
Depreciation is recognised to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives, using the
Straight line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end
of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
d) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are identified non-monetary assets without physical existence.
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are capitalized and carried at cost less
accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets are recognized in books only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with
the asset will flow to the company and the cost can be measured reliably.
The cost of the intangible asset shall include the purchase price, including non-refundable duties and taxes, all the
directly attributable costs to bring the intangible to the present location, working condition and intended use.
68
Intangible assets represent Computer software whose cost is amortized over their expected useful life 2 to 5 years
on a straight-line basis.
The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect
of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Impairment loss, if any, is provided to the extent, the carrying amount of assets exceeds their recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is the higher of an assets net selling price and the present value of estimated future cash flows
expected to arise from the continuing use of the asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for
impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. Recoverable
amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pretax discount rate that reflects current market
assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash
flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cashgenerating unit) is estimated to be less
than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable
amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. When an impairment loss subsequently
reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cashgenerating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its
recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior
years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
f) Revenue recognition
As per Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments, Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis taking into
account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate.
g) "Financial instruments"
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company
becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the relevant instrument and are initially measured at fair value.
Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities
(other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted
from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized
immediately in profit or loss.
Financial Asset
(i) Financial assets comprise of investments in Equity, Trade Receivables, Cash and Cash Equivalents and Other
Financial Assets.
(ii) Depending on the business model (i.e) nature of transactions for managing those financial assets and its
contractual cash flow characteristics, the financial assets are initially measured at fair value and subsequently
measured and classified at:
a) Amortized cost; or
b) Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI); or
c) Fair value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
d) Amortized cost represents carrying amount on initial recognition at fair value plus or minus transaction cost."
(iii) The Company classifies its financial assets for measurement as below:-
69
BASIS OF MEASUREMENT FINANCIAL ASSETS
(iv) The company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset
expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset
to another party. On derecognition of a financial asset or part thereof, the difference between the carrying amount
measured at the date of recognition and the consideration received including any new asset obtained less any new
liability assumed shall be recognized in the statement of profit and Loss.
(v) The company assesses at each balance sheet date whether the financial asset or group of financial assets is
impaired. IND AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss allowance. The company
recognizes lifetime expected losses for trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all
other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to 12 month expected credit losses
or at an amount equal to lifetime expected losses, if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly
since initial recognition.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all
of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a Company entity are recognised at the proceeds received, net of
direct issue costs.
Repurchase of the Company's own equity instruments is recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or
loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company's own equity
instruments.
Financial Liability
Financial liabilities comprise of Borrowings from Banks, Trade payables, Derivative financial instruments,
financial guarantee obligation and other financial liabilities.
(i) All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or at
FVTPL.
(ii) Financial liabilities are derecognised when and only when it is extinguished (i.e) when the obligation specified
in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expired.
(iii) Upon de-recognition of its financial liabilities or part thereof, the difference between the carrying amount of
a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid including
any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
i) Employee benefit
Short term employee benefits for services rendered by employees are recognised during the period when the
services are rendered.
j) Segment Reporting
The Company is engaged in only one business of Financial Activities. Accordingly there are no separate reportable
segments according to Ind AS 108 ‘Operating Segments' issued under the Companies (Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2006.
k) Leases
Ind AS 116 ‘Leases’ replaces Ind AS 17 – Leases and related interpretation and guidance. However,
The Company has not entered into any Lease Agreements and hence this is not applicable.
70
l) Earnings per share
The basic earnings per share has been computed by dividing the net income attributable to equity shareholders by
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year / period.
The diluted earnings per share have been computed using weighted average number of shares adjusted for effects
of all potentially dilutive equity shares.
m) Taxation
Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates
to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in OCI.
Current tax: Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid in respect of taxable income for the year
in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961. Current tax comprises the tax payable on the taxable income or
loss for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates
enacted at the reporting date.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the obligation at
the reporting date, considering the risk and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Contingent liabilities: Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past
events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future
uncertain events not wholly within the control of the Company (or)
There is a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources
will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

Contingent Liabilities
85
We do not have any other off-balance sheet arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities,
such as special purpose vehicles, that have been established for the purposes of facilitating off-balance sheet
arrangements.
Credit Risk and Default Risk: Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a
financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The company is exposed to credit risk from
its operating activities (primarily trade receivables, business advances/deposit given) and from its investing
activities (primarily loans granted to various parties including related parties). Since, the Company is not able to
timely realize amount due from trade receivables, credit risk in case of Company is very high.
Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The company borrowings from banks which have been
declared NPA by the banks and interest at a higher rate is charged by the banks. So, interest rate risk is high in
case of Company. The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates
for both fixed and floating rate borrowings at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the
analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was
outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk
internally to key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible
change in interest rates. Since all the consortium bankers has recalled their loans, details of interest charged by
banks are not available from FY 2016-17 onwards, hence disclosure required for interest rate sensitivity cannot
be given.
Market Risk: Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market conditions. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, credit and
default risk and liquidity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings,
deposits.
Liquidity Risk: The company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility
through the use of bank overdrafts and loans. The liquidity position of the company is not good. As the company's
account has been declared NPA by the bank and the company is unable to get new finance from banks. Also, the
company is highly dependent on cash sales to meet its day to day expenses.

RESTRICTIONS ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF INDIAN SECURITIES
Foreign investment in Indian securities is regulated through the Industrial Policy, 1991 of the Government of
India and FEMA. While the Industrial Policy, 1991, prescribes the limits and the conditions subject to which
foreign investment can be made in different sectors of the Indian economy, FEMA regulates the precise manner
in which such investment may be made. Under the Industrial Policy, 1991, unless specifically restricted, foreign
investment is freely permitted in all sectors of the Indian economy up to any extent and without any prior
approvals, but the foreign investor is required to follow certain prescribed procedures for making such
investment. Accordingly, the process for foreign direct investment (“FDI”) and approval from the Government
of India will not be handled by the concerned ministries or departments, in consultation with the Department for
Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India (formerly
known as the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion) (“DPIIT”), Ministry of Finance, Department of
Economic Affairs through the FDI Circular 2020 (defined below).
The DPIIT issued the Consolidated FDI Policy Circular of 2020 (“FDI Circular 2020”), which, with effect from
October 15, 2020, consolidated and superseded all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI
issued by the DPIIT that were in force and effect as at October 15, 2020. The Government proposes to update
the consolidated circular on FDI policy once every year and therefore, FDI Circular 2020 will be valid until the
DPIIT issues an updated circular. The Government of India has from time to time made policy pronouncements
on FDI through press notes and press releases which are notified by RBI as amendments to FEMA. In case of
any conflict, the relevant notification under the FEMA Rules will prevail. The payment of inward remittance and
reporting requirements are stipulated under the Foreign Exchange Management (Mode of Payment and Reporting
of Non-Debt Instruments) Regulations, 2019 issued by RBI.
On October 17, 2019, Ministry of Finance, Department of Economic Affairs, had notified the FEMA Rules,
which had replaced the Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer and Issue of Security by a Person Resident
Outside India) Regulations 2017. Foreign investment in this Offer shall be on the basis of the FEMA Rules.
Further, in accordance with Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020 issued by the DPIIT and the
Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) Amendment Rules, 2020 which came into effect from
April 22,2020, any investment, subscription, purchase or sale of equity instruments by entities of a country which
shares land border with India or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a
citizen of any such country, will require prior approval of the Government, as prescribed in the Consolidated
FDI Policy and the FEMA Rules. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign
direct investment in an entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within
