attempted to quantify their impact on the financial data included herein and urges you to consult your

INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA

investment decisions should not be based solely on such information.

Further, the extent to which the industry and market data presented in this Red Herring Prospectus is

These forward-looking statements, whether made by us or a third-party, are based on our current
plans, estimates, presumptions and expectations and actual results may differ materially from those
suggested by such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties and assumptions about us that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
contemplated by the relevant forward-looking statement.

This may be due to risks or uncertainties or assumptions associated with the expectations with respect
to, but not limited to, regulatory changes pertaining to the industry in which our Company operates
and our ability to respond to them, our ability to successfully implement our strategy, our growth and
expansion, technological changes, our exposure to market risks, general economic and political
conditions in India which have an impact on our business activities or investments, the monetary and
fiscal policies of India, inflation, deflation, , the performance of the financial markets in India and
globally, changes in domestic laws, regulations and taxes, changes in competition in the industry and
incidence of any natural calamities and/or acts of violence. Important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from our Company’s expectations include, but are not limited to, the
following:

• A reduction in the demand of our products and/or competing products gaining wider market
acceptance;
• Loss of one or more of our key customers and/or suppliers;
• An increase in the productivity and overall efficiency of our competitors;
• An adverse change in the regulations governing our products and the products of our customers;
• Any adverse development that may affect the operations of our manufacturing units;
• Any qualifications or other observations made by our future statutory auditors which may affect
our results of operations;
• A downturn in the utility of our products to the industries we cater to;
• Inability to obtain, maintain or renew requisite statutory and regulatory permits and approvals
with respect to the usage of our key raw material may adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects;

systems;

turbulence in interest rates, equity prices or other rates or prices;

• The performance of the financial markets in India and globally;
• Any adverse outcome in the legal proceedings in which we are involved;
• Occurrences of natural disasters or calamities affecting the areas in which we have operations;

Page 22 of 472
• Market fluctuations and industry dynamics beyond our control;
• Our ability to compete effectively, particularly in new markets and businesses;
• Changes in foreign exchange rates or other rates or prices;
• Inability to collect our dues and receivables from, or invoice our unbilled services to, our
customers, our results of operations;
• Other factors beyond our control;
• Our ability to manage risks that arise from these factors;
• Conflict of interest with our Promoters, Promoter Group, Group Company and other related
parties;
• Changes in domestic and foreign laws, regulations and taxes and changes in competition in our
industry;
• Termination of customer/works contracts without cause and with little or no notice or penalty;
and
• Inability to obtain, maintain or renew requisite statutory and regulatory permits and approvals or
noncompliance with and changes in, safety, health and environmental laws and other applicable
regulations, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects.

For a further discussion of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our expectations,
see section titled “Risk Factors” and chapter titled “Our Business” and “Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” beginning on pages 41, 167 and 335,
respectively. 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 future gains or losses could
materially differ from those that have been estimated and are not a guarantee of future performance.

Although we believe that the assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are based are
reasonable, 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 on the date of this Red
Herring Prospectus and are not a guarantee of future performance. These statements are based on
the management’s belief 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 as well as statements based on them could prove to be
inaccurate. Neither our Company, our Promoters, our Directors, the BRLM, nor any of their respective
affiliates 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.

In accordance with regulatory requirements, our Company will ensure that investors in India are
informed of material developments from the date of registration of this Red Herring Prospectus with
the RoC until receipt of final listing and trading approvals by the Stock Exchanges for this Issue.

In making an investment decision, as prospective investors, you must rely on your own examination of
us and the terms of the issue, including the merits and the risks involved. You should consult your tax,

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS

Business Specific/ Company specific Risk

1. Inadequate or interrupted supply and price fluctuation of packaging materials could adversely
affect our business, results of operations, cash flows, profitability and financial condition.

Our company engages in the distribution of various plastic-based products such as Biaxially
Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) film, Polyester Films, Cast Polypropylene (CPP) films, Plastic
granules, Inks, Adhesives, Masterbatches, Ethyl Acedate, and Titanium Dioxide. We offer
customized bulk packaging solutions to business-to-business (B2B) manufacturers in a variety of
industries.

The quantity and cost of our products are dependent on our ability to source those products and
packaging materials at acceptable prices and maintain a stable and sufficient supply of the same.
The products we use are subject to price volatility and unavailability caused by external
conditions, such as commodity price fluctuations within India and globally, weather conditions,
supply & demand dynamics, logistics, our bargaining power with the suppliers, inflation and
governmental regulations and policies.

We generally pass on the cost escalations to our customers, however, we may not be able to pass
on every instance of escalation in input costs and may have to pursue internal cost control
measures or may have to absorb in some instances. If we are not able to effectively pass on our
escalated costs to customers, such price escalations could have a material adverse impact on the
results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

2. We are highly dependent upon a limited number of suppliers. 76.32%, 80.74% and 74.79% of
our Total Purchases are derived from our top 5 suppliers for the period ended on September 30,
2023, and for the Fiscal Years ended on March 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

We source our products requirement indigenously or through imports. Purchases made from our
largest supplier, top 5 suppliers and top 10 suppliers for the period ended on September 30, 2023,
and for the Fiscals Years 2023, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

Suppliers

While we may find additional suppliers to supply these products, any failure of our suppliers to
deliver these products in the necessary quantities or to adhere to delivery schedules, credit terms
or specified quality standards and technical specifications may adversely affect our business and
our ability to deliver orders on time and at the desired level of quality.

As a result, we may lose customers which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations. Further our product supply and pricing may become
volatile due to several factors beyond our control, including global demand and supply, general
economic and political conditions, transportation and labour unrest, natural disasters,
competition, import duties, tariffs and currency exchange rates, and there are inherent
uncertainties in estimating such variables, regardless of the methodologies and assumptions that
we may use. Therefore, we cannot assure that we will be able to procure adequate supplies of
our products in the future, as and when we need them on commercially acceptable terms.
Further, there can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively manage relationships with
our existing or new suppliers or that we will be able to enter into arrangements with new
suppliers at attractive terms or at all. If we fail to successfully leverage our existing and new
relationships with suppliers, our business and financial performance could be adversely affected.

3. We have entered into Del Credere Associate (DCA) Agreement and Del Credere Associate
Operated Polymers Warehouse (DOPW) Agreement with Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. (“IOCL”).
Termination or non-renewal of the Agreement or any material modification to the existing
terms under such agreement adverse to our interest will materially and adversely affect our
ability to continue our business and operations and our future financial performance.

We have entered into long-term agreements for plastic/ polymer granules mainly HDPE, LLDPE,
PP as Del-credere Agent of Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL). We have first entered into an
agreement with IOCL as DCA and DOPW operator in year 2017 which has been lastly renewed on
June 26, 2023, whereby we have been appointed as Del Credere Associates for prompt payments
to IOCL against sale of products by IOCL to its customers. Pursuant to the said arrangements, we
have also been granted the right to market and sell to customers on behalf of IOCL with the
objective inter alia, of receiving and storing the products. Pursuant to the agreement, we are
entitled to receive commission on any such sales made through us, however in case of default on
payment by such parties, IOCL has the right to recover the amount from us with interest for
overdue period.

Further, any suspension, restriction or termination of the agreement by IOCL could adversely
affect our operating results and financial condition. In the event IOCL exercises their right to
terminate the agreement whether on the occurrence of any event mentioned in the Agreement
or otherwise, or, on expiry of the term of the agreement, or in the event that they are unwilling
to renew the agreement or impose terms which are less favorable to us than existing terms, it
may materially and adversely affect our business operations and our future financial
performance.

4. Our Company requires significant amounts of working capital and 82.11%, 82.05%, 90.51% and
90.42% of our current assets comprises of trade receivables and inventories for the period ended
on September 30, 2023, and for the Fiscal Year ended on March 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Our
inability to meet our working capital requirements including failure to realize receivables and
inventories may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and overall business.

Our business requires significant working capital, such as financing the purchase of our products,
and payments for operating expenses before we receive payment from our customers. In
addition, the actual amount of our future capital requirements may differ from estimates as a
result, among other factors, cost overruns, unanticipated expenses, regulatory changes,
economic conditions, additional market developments and new opportunities in the industry. A
significant portion of our working capital is consumed in trade receivables and inventories.
Summary of our working capital position is given below:

Pursuant to the certificate dated February 05, 2024, issued by our statutory auditor M/s. Keyur Shah &
Associates, chartered accountants.

We have to maintain adequate inventories of our products to meet our day-to-day requirements
and avoid situations like stock outs. The result of our operations depends upon our ability to
manage our inventories. To effectively manage our inventory, we must be able to accurately
estimate customer demand and supply requirements and trade inventory accordingly. If our
management misjudges expected customer demand, it could adversely impact the results by
causing either a shortage of products or an accumulation of excess inventory. Further, if we fail
to sell the inventory, we may be required to write-down our inventory or pay our suppliers
without new purchases, or create additional vendor financing, which could have an adverse
impact on our income and cash flows, liquidity and overall business.

We intend to continue to grow our business operations by expanding capacities of our existing
products and introducing new products. The Objects of the Issue include, amongst others,
funding the working capital requirement of our business. In order to sell new products, we might
have to maintain a higher level of inventories and may also have to offer liberal credit terms to
our customers to establish the demand and market for the newer / wider range of products. This

Page 44 of 472
may result in further increase in the quantum of working capital particularly trade receivables
and inventories. Our inability to maintain sufficient cash flows, realize existing inventories & trade
receivables, maintain credit facility and other sources of fund, in a timely manner, or at all, to
meet the increasing requirement of working capital may have significant adverse effect on our
financial condition and result of our operations. For further details, please refer to the chapter
titled “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page 113.

5. The introduction of alternative packaging materials caused by changes in technology or


consumer preferences may affect demand for our existing products, which may adversely affect
our financial results and business prospects.

Our products are used mainly by companies who require packaging materials for FMCG, chemical,
Food Products, Textiles, Pesticides, Fertilizers, Ceramics, etc. Our business is affected by changes
in technology, consumer preferences, market perception of brand, attractiveness, convenience,
safety and environmental norms. Our ability to anticipate such changes and to continuously
develop and introduce new and enhanced products successfully on a timely basis will be a key
factor in our growth and business prospects. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
keep pace with the technological advances that may be necessary for us to remain competitive.
Further, any substantial change in preference of consumers who are end users of our products
will affect our customers’ businesses and, in turn, will affect the demand for our products. Any
failure to forecast and/or meet the changing demands of packaging businesses and consumer
preferences may have an adverse effect on our business, profitability and growth prospects.

6. We derive a portion of our revenue from certain customers, and the loss of one or more such
customers, the deterioration of their financial condition or prospects, or a reduction in their
demand for our products could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial
condition and cash flows.

We are dependent on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues.
Revenues generated from sales to our top 10 customers was Rs. 2,058.28 lakhs, Rs. 5881.51 lakhs,
Rs. 6281.10 lakhs and Rs. 3806.64 lakhs which represented 37.45%, 37.45 %, 36.73 % and 37.23
% of our revenue from operations for the period ended on September 30, 2023, and during the
Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021 respectively. However, the composition and revenue
generated from these clients might change as we continue to add new customers in normal
course of business. While we have developed valued relationships with certain of our customers
in the normal course of business, there can be no assurance that our customers in the past or our
newly acquired customers will continue to place similar orders with us in the future. The loss of
one or more of these significant customers or a significant decrease in business from any such
key customer, whether due to circumstances specific to such customer or adverse market
conditions affecting the industry in which our customer operates or the economic environment,
may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our reliance on a select group of customers may also constrain our ability to negotiate our
arrangements, which may have an impact on our profit margins and financial performance. The
deterioration of the financial condition or business prospects of these customers could reduce
their requirement for our products and result in a significant decrease in the revenues we derive
from these customers. The loss of one or more of our significant customers or a reduction in the
amount of business we obtain from them could have an adverse effect on our business, results
of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

7. Our Group Companies Purv Films Private limited, Apex Flexipack Private Limited, Millenium
Plastipack Private Limited, Purv Ecoplast Private limited, Purv Packaging Private limited and
our Subsidiary Company Cool Caps Industries Limited, is carrying on business activities similar

Page 45 of 472
to our business. This may be a potential source of conflict of interest for us and which may have
an adverse effect on our business, financial conditions, and results of operations.

We, our Promoter and our Promoter Group entities are a part of the Purv Group and our
Company and some of our Promoter Group entities, Purv Films Private limited, Apex Flexipack
Private Limited, Millenium Plastipack Private Limited, Purv Ecoplast Private limited, Purv
Packaging Private limited and Cool Caps Industries Limited have common pursuits, i.e. carrying
on business activities similar to our business. We have no agreements with our Promoter or any
other Group entities that restricts us or them from offering similar products and services. As a
result, our relationship with our Promoter and other entities forming a part of the Purv Group
may cause certain conflicts of interest and we may compete with one or more of our Promoter
Group entities while undertaking our businesses in the future. We may also compete with our
Promoter Group entities for the services of our business partners and other suppliers.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete with such Promoter Group
entities, if and when such conflict arises. Further, our relationship with Promoter and our
Promoter Group entities may effectively prevent us from taking advantage of certain business
opportunities. For instance, Purv Group may, select a Promoter Group entity instead of us to
pursue certain business opportunities that arise within the Purv Group. If we forego certain
business opportunities because of our relationship with our Promoter or the Promoter Group, it
could adversely affect our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

8. There is an increased awareness towards controlling pollution and many economies including
India have joined in the efforts to ban plastic product. In case any plastic packaging products
traded by us are banned in India, it could have a material and adverse effect on our business
and results of operations.

Plastic takes many years to decompose and is very dangerous for living beings. Many countries
around the world are finding alternatives to the use of plastic products. In this regard,
Government has enacted Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 for recycling of plastic products
and introduced the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).

Our Company cannot be assured that future measures will not have a negative impact on our
business. If the Government of India legislates against the use of plastic products or if regulations
for the traders and use of our packaging products are made more stringent, it could have a
material and adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

9. There are pending litigations against our company, our Promoters, our Directors and our Group
Companies and any adverse decision in these proceedings may render us/them liable to
liabilities/penalties and may adversely affect our business, result of operations and financial

legal proceedings at different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals and appellate
authorities. In the event of adverse rulings in these proceedings or consequent levy of penalties
by other statutory authorities, our Company, Promoters, Directors and Group Companies may
need to make payments or make provisions for future payments, which may increase expenses

and Material developments”.

10. We have not entered into any long-term or definitive agreements with all our customers. If our
customers choose not to source their requirements from us, our business, financial condition
and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We have not entered into any long-term or definitive agreements with our customers and instead
rely on purchase orders to govern the volume, pricing and other terms of sales of our products.
However, such orders may be amended or cancelled prior to finalization, and such an amend
mentor cancellation take place, we may be unable to seek compensation for any surplus
unpurchased products that we manufacture. Our customers do not, typically, place firm purchase
orders until a short time before the products are required from us as a result of which, we do not
hold a significant order book at any time, making it difficult for us to forecast revenue, production
or sales. Consequently, there is no commitment on the part of the customer to continue to source
their requirements from us, and as a result, our sales from period to period may fluctuate
significantly as a result of changes in our customers’ vendor preferences.

Additionally, our customers have standards for product quantity and quality as well as delivery
schedules. Any failure to meet our customers’ expectations could result in the cancellation of
orders. There are also a number of factors other than our performance that are beyond our
control and that could cause the loss of a customer. Customers may demand price reductions,
set-off any payment obligations, require indemnification for themselves or their affiliates, change
their outsourcing strategy by moving more work in-house, or replace their existing products with
alternative products, any of which may have an adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

11. Failure to manage our inventory could have an adverse effect on our net sales, profitability,
cash flow and liquidity.

The results of operations of our business are dependent on our ability to effectively manage our
inventory and stocks. To effectively manage our inventory, we must be able to accurately
estimate customer demand and supply requirements and trade inventory accordingly. If our
management has misjudged expected customer demand it could adversely impact on the results
by causing either a shortage of products or an accumulation of excess inventory. Further, if we
fail to sell the inventory, we may be required to write down our inventory or pay our suppliers
without new purchases, or create additional vendor financing, which could have an adverse
impact on our income and cash flows. We estimate our sales based on the forecast, demand and
requirements and also on the customer specifications. Natural disasters such as earthquakes,
extreme climatic or weather conditions such as floods or droughts may adversely impact the
supply of our products and local transportation. Should our supply of products be disrupted, we
may not be able to procure an alternate source of supply in time to meet the demands of our
customers. Such a disruption to supply would materially and adversely affect our business,
profitability and reputation. In addition, disruptions to the delivery of product to our customer
may occur for reasons such as poor handling, transportation bottlenecks, or labour strikes, which

Page 49 of 472
could lead to delayed or lost deliveries or damaged products and disrupt supply of these products.
To improve our line capability, we try to stock our inventory at our facility. An optimal level of
inventory is important to our business as it allows us to respond to customer demand effectively.
If we overstock inventory, our capital requirements will increase and we will incur additional
financing costs. If we understock inventory, our ability to meet customer demand and our
operating results may be adversely affected. Any mismatch between our planning and actual
consumer consumption could lead to potential excess inventory or out-of-stock situations, either
of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operation.

12. Our Company and its subsidiaries have availed unsecured loans from promoter, directors and
group entities, which may be recalled on demand.

For the period ended on September 30, 2023, and for the financial year ending March 31, 2023,
March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, our Company and subsidiary companies have outstanding
unsecured loans as under:
(Rs. in Lakhs)
S. September 30, March 31, March 31, March 31,
Name of Company
No. 2023 2023 2022 2021
1 Purv Flexipack Limited 375.52 499.72 195.64 167.14
Cool Caps Industries Limited (including
2 390.50 426.76 10.00 94.24
its subsidiaries)

These loans are not repayable in accordance with any agreed repayment schedule and may be
recalled by the relevant lender at any time. In such cases, our Company may be required to repay
the entirety of the unsecured loans together with accrued interest. Our Company may not be
able to generate sufficient funds at short notice to be able to repay such loans and may resort to
refinancing such loans at a higher rate of interest and on terms not favorable to it. Failure to
repay unsecured loans in a timely manner may have a material adverse effect on our business,
cash flows and financial condition. For further details of unsecured loans of our Company, please
refer the chapter titled “Financial Statements as Restated” beginning on page 238.

13. We are required to maintain certain licenses, approvals, registrations, consents and permits in
the ordinary course of business. Failure to obtain the requisite approvals result in non-
compliance and therefore, affect our business operations, financial condition, result of
operations and prospects.

We require a number of licenses, approvals, registrations, consents and permits to operate our
business in India. As we expand our operations and enter new markets, we may not be familiar
with local regulations and may need to incur additional costs to ensure regulatory compliance. In
addition, we may need to apply for approvals, including the renewal of approvals which may
expire, from time to time, as and when required in the ordinary course of business.

Our material subsidiary company Cool Caps Industries Limited yet to apply for Registration under
the Assam Shops and Establishments Act, 1971 as a Commercial Establishment for the address -
Patta no 46, Paschim Banbhag, Jabjabkuchi, Barajol, Dag no 161, Ghograpar, Nalbari, Assam.

If we are unable to obtain such approvals and permits, our business, results of operations, cash
flows and financial condition could be adversely affected. If we fail to obtain, maintain or renew
such licenses, approvals, registrations, and permits in a timely manner, it may result in
interruption of our business operations, which could have an adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations. While we have obtained key approvals required for
our business, we have also applied for, and are awaiting grant/ renewal of certain key approvals.

Page 50 of 472
Furthermore, government approvals and licenses are subject to numerous conditions, including
adherence to emission standards and regular monitoring and compliance requirements, some of
which are onerous and require us to incur substantial expenditure. We may incur substantial
costs, including clean up and/or remediation costs, fines and civil or criminal sanctions, as a result
of violations of or liabilities under environmental or health and safety laws, which may have a
material adverse effect on our business or financial condition. We cannot assure you that
approvals, licenses, registrations and permits issued to us would not be suspended or revoked in
the event of non-compliance with any terms or conditions thereof, or pursuant to any regulatory
action. Any failure to renew the approvals that have expired or apply for, obtain and validly
maintain the required licenses, approvals, registrations or permits, or any suspension or
revocation of any approvals, licenses, registrations and permits that have been or may be issued
to us, may materially and adversely affect our operations. For further details, please see the
section entitled “Government and Statutory Approvals” on page 373 for more details, including
such approvals for which applications are pending before relevant authorities.

14. We are not directly subject to quality requirements however any product defect issues or failure
by the manufacturer to comply with quality standards may lead to the cancellation of existing
and future orders placed to us, recalls and exposure to potential product liability claims.

We face a business risk of losing potential customers due to product defects by the brands and
manufacturers whose products we supply. The subsequent liability claims, if the use of any of the
products offered by us results in personal injury or property damage. Our suppliers may not be
able to meet regulatory and quality standards in India, or the quality standards imposed by our
customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.

If any of the products offered by us do not meet regulatory standards or are defective, we may
be, inter alia, (i) responsible at the instance for damages relating to any defective products, or (ii)
required to replace, recall or redesign such products.

The failure by us or any of our suppliers to achieve or maintain compliance with regulatory
requirements or quality standards may disrupt our ability to supply products sufficient to meet
demand until compliance is achieved or, until a new supplier has been identified and evaluated.
The quality of products will have an impact on our company and in turn affect our brand image,
business and revenue. There is no assurance that the products we supply will always meet the
satisfaction of our customers’ quality standards. There can be no assurance that if we need to
engage new suppliers to satisfy our business requirement, we will be able locate new suppliers in
compliance with regulatory requirements in a timely manner, or at all. Failure to do so could lead
to the cancellation of existing and future orders and have a material adverse effect on our
business and revenue.

15. Ability to expand the customer base and develop new products and generate new sales.

Customer relationships are the core of our business. Our ability to grow our customer base and
drive market adoption of our products is affected by the pace at which the demand of our
products grows. We expect that our revenue growth will be primarily driven by the pace of
adoption of our offerings. This will drive our ability to acquire new customers and increase sales
to existing customers, which in turn, will affect our future financial performance.

We have grown our operations by introducing quality products to meet the potential
requirements of our customers and create market for our products. To service and grow our
relationships with our existing customers and to win new customers, we are required to provide
them with products that address their quality and other requirements, to anticipate and

Page 51 of 472
understand trends in their relevant markets and to continually address their needs as those
change and evolve.

Our future growth shall depend on our ability to identify emerging market trends, offer new
products to customers, inculcate strong culture of innovation, have trained workforce and latest
research and development facilities to enable us to expand the range of our offerings to
customers and improve the delivery of our products along with growing our portfolio of various
products to increasingly represent our revenue from operations, widened the customer base that
we cater to, and typically have a higher margin profile.

16. Our lenders have charge over our movable and immovable properties in respect of finance
availed by us. Our inability to meet our obligations under our debt financing arrangements
could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.

We have provided security in respect of loans / facilities availed by us from banks and financial
institutions by creating a charge over our movable and immovable properties. The total amounts
outstanding and payable by us as secured loans for the period ended on September 30, 2023,
were Rs. 5,927.07 lakhs. For further details, please refer to, the chapter titled “Financial
Statements as Restated” beginning on page 238.

In the event we default in repayment of the loans / facilities availed by us and any interest
thereof, our properties may be subject to Invocation/forfeiture by lenders, which in turn could
have significant adverse effect on business, financial condition or results of operations. Any
failure on our part to comply with the terms in our loan agreements would generally result in
events of default under these loan agreements. In such a case, the lenders under each of these
respective loan agreements may, at their discretion, accelerate payment and declare the entire
outstanding amounts under these loans due and payable, and in certain instances, enforce their
security which has been constituted over our various assets and take possession of those assets,
which could adversely affect our liquidity and materially and adversely affect our business and
operations.

17. Our Company had a negative cash flow from our operating, investing and financing activities in
past three years, details of which are given below, sustained negative cash flow could impact
our growth and business.

Our Company had a negative cash flow from our operating, investing and financing activities in
the previous year(s) as per the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements and the same has
been summarized below:
(Rs. in Lakhs)
For the period ended For The Year Ended March 31,
Particulars
on September 30, 2023 2023 2022 2021
Cash Flow from/ (Used in) Operating Activities (1,204.86) 2,262.22 (110.89) (589.52)
Cash Flow from/ (Used in) Investing Activities (852.57) (3,846.70) (699.06) (714.61)
Cash Flow from/ (Used in) Financing Activities 2,174.34 1,512.81 883.46 1,023.82
Cash Flow of a Company is a key indicator to show the extent of cash generated from operations
to meet capital expenditure, pay dividends, repay loans, and make new investments without
raising finance from external resources. Cash flows from our Operating activities are positive
since last one year as per Restated Financial Statements. However, if we are not able to generate
sufficient cash flow in future, it may adversely affect our business and financial operations.

18. There may have been certain instances of non-compliance and alleged non-compliance with
respect to certain regulatory filings for corporate actions taken by our Company in the past.

Page 52 of 472
Consequently, we may be subject to regulatory actions and penalties for any such past or future
non-compliance and our business, financial condition and reputation may be adversely affected.

Our Company has not complied with certain statutory provisions such as the following:

There were instances of delayed filing of statutory forms under the Companies Act with the
Registrar of Companies (RoC), which were subsequently rectified by paying additional fees. These
delays occurred due to inadvertent reasons and ranged from 1 to 1704 days. The details of such

As of now, our Company has not received any notice from ROC w.r.t. non-compliance, we cannot
assure that no notice will be issued by ROC or no penalty will be imposed in this regard in the

Page 53 of 472
future. Other non-compliance in late filing of Forms with ROC has been rectified these errors by
filing the updated forms and payment of requisite additional fees. However, there is no assurance
that such discrepancies will not occur in the future, and we may be subject to regulatory actions
and penalties, which could adversely affect our business operations and financial position.

19. Our previous Statutory Auditor K.S. Bothra & Co. have included auditor qualification relating to
the depreciation on Land & Building and Ownership Flats was not charged as per note 2(f)(ii)(b)
of Significant Accounting Policies for the financial year ended March 31, 2022 and March 31,
2021 in the audit reports of our Company.

Our previous Statutory Auditor, K.S. Bothra & Co., issued auditor qualifications related to the
depreciation on Land & Building and Ownership Flats, as disclosed in note 2(f)(ii)(b) of the
Significant Accounting Policies, for the financial years ending March 31, 2022, and March 31,
2021, in the audit reports of our Company.

The audit reports for the Financial Years 2022 and 2021 contain qualifications from our previous
statutory auditor regarding the failure to charge depreciation on certain assets categorized under
the Fixed Assets Group. These qualifications specifically noted that "The group has not provided
depreciation on Land & Building and Ownership Flats as per note 2(f)(ii)(b) of Significant
Accounting Policies."

The rationale behind not applying depreciation to these assets is rooted in the fact that they were
acquired for investment and resale purposes and were not intended for direct business use.
These assets were erroneously classified under the Fixed Assets Group. However, during the
restatement of our financials for the purpose of the IPO, we addressed these qualifications under
the guidance of our Peer Review auditor. Subsequently, we reclassified these assets under the
Investment category, as they do not serve a business purpose and depreciation should not be
charged to the Profit and Loss Account due to their status as non-business purpose assets
(Investment Assets).

Consequently, in the Restated Financial Statements, these assets have been reclassified in
accordance with Accounting Standard 13, "Accounting for Investments." The Peer Review auditor
altered their categorization from fixed assets (Annexure No -13) to Investment property
(Annexure No- 17) for the financial years ending March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021.

Further, there can be no assurance that any similar qualifications will not form part of the audit
reports on our financial statements for future fiscal periods, or that such qualifications will not
affect our financial results in future fiscal periods. Investors should consider these qualifications
in evaluating our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Any such qualifications
on our financial statements in the future may also adversely affect the trading price of the Equity
Shares.

20. The industry segments in which we operate being fragmented, and we face competition from
other large and small players, which may affect our business operations and financial
conditions.

We compete in flexible packaging and plastic industry on the basis of the quality of our products,
price, and customer satisfaction. The industry in which we operate is highly competitive. Factors
affecting our competitive success include, amongst other things, price, demand for our products,
and reliability. Our competitors vary in size, and may have greater financial, marketing, personnel
and other resources than us and certain of our competitors have a longer history of established
businesses and reputations in the Indian trading and packaging industry as compared with us.
Competitive conditions in some of our segments have caused us to incur lower net selling prices

Page 54 of 472
and reduced gross margins and net earnings. These conditions may continue indefinitely.
Changes in the identity, ownership structure, and strategic goals of our competitors and the
emergence of new competitors in our target markets may impact our financial performance. Our
failure to compete effectively, including any delay in responding to changes in the industry and
market, may affect the competitiveness of our products, which may result in a decline in our
revenues and profitability. The industry and markets for our products are characterized by factors
such as the development of new products, and evolving industry standards.

For more information, also refer to chapter “Our Business” on page 167.

21. Our Company’s failure to maintain the quality standards of the products or keep pace with the
technological developments could adversely impact our business, results of operations and
financial condition.

Our products depend on the customer’s expectations and choice or demand of the customer as
we trade as per particular customer’s needs. Any failure to maintain the quality standards may
affect our business. Although we place order as per customer quality requirement, we cannot
assure that the products will always be able to satisfy our customers’ quality standards. Any
negative publicity regarding our Company, or line of business, including those arising from any
deterioration in quality of the products we trade from our vendors, or any other unforeseen
events could adversely affect our reputation, our operations and our results from operations.
Also, rapid change in our customers’ expectation on account of changes in technology or
introduction of new products or for any other reason and failure on our part to meet their
expectation could adversely affect our business, result of operations and financial condition.

While, we believe that we have always expanded our capacities and/or introduced new products
based on latest technology to cater to the growing demand of our customers and also endeavour
regularly update our existing technology and acquire or develop new technologies on a
continuous basis, our failure to anticipate or to respond adequately to changing technical, market
demands and/or client requirements could adversely affect our business and financial results.

22. The orders placed by customers may be delayed, modified or cancelled, which may have an
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further any
defaults or delays in payment by a significant portion of our customers, may have an adverse
effect on cash flows, results of operations and financial condition.

We may encounter problems in executing the orders in relation to our products or executing it
on a timely basis. Moreover, factors beyond our control or the control of our customers may
postpone the delivery of such products or cause its cancellation. Due to the possibility of
cancellations or changes in scope and schedule of delivery of such products, resulting from our
customers discretion or problems we encounter in the delivery of products or reasons outside
our control or the control of our customers, we cannot predict with certainty when, if or to what
extent we may be able to deliver the orders placed. Additionally, delays in the delivery of such
products can lead to customers delaying or refusing to pay the amount, in part or full, that we
expect to be paid in respect of such products. In addition, even where a delivery proceeds as
scheduled, it is possible that the customers may default or otherwise fail to pay the amounts
owed.

In the ordinary course of business, we extend credit to our customers. Consequently, we are
exposed to the risk of uncertainty regarding the receipt of the outstanding amounts. As on the
period ended September 30, 2023, and as of March 31,2023, March 31, 2022, and March 31,
2021, our trade receivables were Rs. 7,065.96 lakhs, Rs. 6,258.22 lakhs, Rs. 5,242.66 lakhs and Rs.
4,859.69 lakhs respectively. Our results of operations and profitability depend on the

Page 55 of 472
creditworthiness of our customers. Some of these customers may have weak credit histories and
we cannot assure them that these counterparties will always be able to pay us in a timely manner,
or at all. Any adverse change in the financial condition of our customers may adversely affect
their ability to make payments to us.

23. Any increase in interest rates would have an adverse effect our results of operations and will
expose our Company to interest rate risks.

We are dependent upon the availability of equity, cash balances and debt financing to fund our
operations and growth. Our secured debt has been availed at floating rates of interest. Any
fluctuations in interest rates may directly impact the interest costs of such loans and in particular,
any increase in interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations. Furthermore, our
indebtedness means that a material portion of our expected cash flow may be required to be
dedicated to the payment of interest on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the funds available
to us for use in our general business operations. If interest rates increase, our interest payments
will increase and our ability to obtain additional debt and non-fund-based facilities could be
adversely affected with a concurrent adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. For further details, please refer chapter titled “Financial Indebtedness”
beginning on page 361.

24. We have certain contingent liabilities that have not been provided for in our Company’s
financials which if materialised, could adversely affect our financial condition.

Our contingent liabilities as per Restated Standalone Financial Statements as on September 30,
2023, are as under:
(Rs. in lakhs)
Particulars Amount
(1) Contingent liabilities
(a) Guarantees issued by banks 1,105.78
(b) Income tax Matters -
(c) Indirect tax Matters 11.86
(d) Corporate Guarantee Given by Company 7,538.93
Total 8,656.57
(2) Commitments (166.00)

In the event any such contingencies mentioned above were to materialize or if our contingent
liabilities were to increase in the future, our financial condition could be adversely affected. For
further details, see the section entitled “Financial Statements as Restated” on page 238.

25. We do not own three warehouses used for our business. In the event, we are unable to renew
the lease/rent agreements, or if such agreements are terminated, we may suffer a disruption in
our operations.

We have taken the following warehouses on lease of varying tenures as under:

These leases are renewable on mutually agreed terms. Upon termination of the lease, we are
required to return the said business premises to the Lessor/Licensor, unless renewed. There can
be no assurance that the term of the agreements will be renewed and in the event the
Lessor/Licensor terminates or does not renew the agreements on commercially acceptable
terms, or at all, and we are required to vacate our offices, we may be required to identify
alternative premises and enter into fresh lease or leave and license agreement. Such a situation
could result in loss of business, time overruns and may adversely affect our operations and
profitability.

For further details of properties, please refer to the chapter titled "Our Business" beginning on
page 167.

26. We are dependent on our key management team as well as our mid-to-senior personnel and
our success depends in large part upon our Promoters. The loss of or our inability to attract or
retain such persons could materially adversely affect our business performance.

Our business and the implementation of our strategy is dependent upon our key management
team, who oversee our day-to-day operations, strategy and growth of our business. There can
be no assurance that we will be able to retain these personnel or find adequate replacements in
a timely manner, or at all. We may not be able to hire and train replacement personnel
immediately when qualified personnel terminate their employment with our Company. We may
also be required to increase our levels of employee compensation more rapidly than in the past
to remain competitive in attracting employees that our business requires. Further, our
competitors may offer compensation and remuneration packages beyond what we are offering
to our key management team. If one or more members of our key management team are unable
or unwilling to continue in their present positions, such persons would be difficult to replace in a
timely and cost-effective manner, and our business, prospects, results of operations and cash
flows could be materially adversely affected.

27. Failure or disruption to our Information Technology and/or business resource planning systems
may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and
prospects.

We have implemented various information technology (“IT”) and/or business resource planning
systems to cover key areas of our operations. We are dependent on technology in relation to
customer order management and dispatches, financial accounting and scheduling material
purchase and shipments. We rely on our IT infrastructure to provide us with connectivity and
data backup across our locations and functions. We believe that we have deployed adequate IT
disaster management systems including data backup and retrieval mechanisms, at registered
office and other locations. However, any failure or disruption in the operation of these systems
or the loss of data due to such failure or disruption (including due to human error or sabotage)
may affect our ability to plan, track, record and analyze work in progress and sales, process
financial information, manage our creditors, debtors positions, or otherwise conduct our normal

Page 57 of 472
business operations, which may increase our costs and otherwise adversely affect our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

28. Our inability to effectively manage our growth or to successfully implement our business plan
and growth strategies could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition. The success of our business will depend greatly on our ability to effectively
implement our business and growth strategies.

Our growth strategies require us to develop and strengthen relationships with existing customers
for our business who may drive high volume orders on an ongoing basis. To remain competitive,
we seek to increase our business from existing customers and by adding new customers, as well
as expanding into new geographical markets. Our success in implementing our growth strategies
may be affected by:

a) Continue to provide one stop solution;


b) Diversification;
c) Leveraging existing Customer Base;
d) Improving the financial efficiency resulting in better cost management;
e) Procurement from other suppliers besides dealerships for better margins and
f) Customer Relationship Management.

Many of these factors are beyond our control and there is no assurance that we will succeed in
implementing our strategies. While we have successfully executed our business strategies in the
past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to execute our strategies on time and within
our estimated budget, or that our expansion and development plans will increase our
profitability. Any of these factors could adversely impact our results of operations. We expect our
growth strategies to place significant demands on our management, financial and other resources
and require us to continue developing and improving our operational, financial and other internal
controls. Our inability to manage our business and growth strategies could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and profitability.

29. Any inability to address changing industry standards and customer trends may adversely affect
our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The future success of our business will depend in part on our ability to respond to technological
advances, customers preferences and emerging industry standards and practices in a cost-
effective and timely manner. The development and implementation of such new technology
entails technical and business risks. We may have to incur substantial capital investment to
upgrade our equipment and facilities. While we continue to invest in various product
development initiatives, adopt enhanced technologies and processes for the development of new
products, we are subject to general risks associated with introduction and implementation of new
products including the lack of market acceptance and delays in product development. There can
be no assurance that we will be able to successfully develop new products or that such new
products will receive market acceptance or adapt our manufacturing processes to incorporate
new technologies or address changing customers trends or emerging industry standards. Any
rapid change in the expectations of our customers, in our business on account of changes in
technology or introduction of new alternate products could adversely affect our business, results
of operations and financial condition.

30. Our Promoter, Director and Group entities have provided personal guarantees to certain loan
facilities availed by us, which if revoked may require alternative guarantees, repayment of
amounts due or termination of the facilities.

Page 58 of 472
Our Promoters, Directors and Group entities have provided personal guarantees in relation to
certain loan facilities availed of by us. In the event that any of these guarantees are revoked, the
lenders for such facilities may require alternate guarantees, repayment of amounts outstanding
under such facilities, or may even terminate such facilities. We may not be successful in procuring
alternative guarantees satisfactory to the lenders, and as a result may need to repay outstanding
amounts under such facilities or seek additional sources of capital, which may not be available on
acceptable terms or at all and any such failure to raise additional capital could affect our
operations and our financial condition.

31. Pricing pressure from customers may affect our gross margins.

Our ability to remain competitive and profitable depend on our ability to source and maintain a
stable and sufficient supply of raw materials at cost effective prices. Historically, prices of material
costs have increased such as Gas and petroleum products which have a significant effect on our
gross margins. We depend on external suppliers for our materials on a purchase order basis and
place such orders with them in advance on the basis of our anticipated requirements. As a result,
the success of our business is significantly dependent on maintaining good relationships with our
suppliers. For further information on procurement of our materials, see “Our Business” beginning
on page 167.

32. Our Company is reliant on key customers for our business and therefore any adverse
developments in our relationships with our key customers or a significant reduction in business
from any such key customer may adversely impact our results of operations, prospects and
financial condition.

The identity and correspondingly revenues from any particular customer or our top five
customers may vary between financial reporting years depending on the nature and term of
ongoing contracts with such customers. For the period ended on September 30, 2023, and for
the financial year ended on March 31, 2023, March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, our top five
customers across our business accounted for Rs. 1,602.55 lakhs, Rs 4,511.48 lakhs, Rs 4134.88
lakhs, Rs 2547.33 lakhs and 29.16%, 28.73%, 24.18% and 24.92% of our revenue from operations,
respectively, while our largest customer accounted for Rs. 891.09 lakhs, Rs 1482.42 lakhs, Rs
1087.53 lakhs, and Rs. 630.82 lakhs and 16.21%, 9.44%, 6.36% and 6.17% of our revenue from
operations respectively, in such periods. Thus, our Company is reliant on key customers for our
business and therefore any adverse developments in our relationships with our key customers or
a significant reduction in business from any such key customer may adversely impact our results
of operations, prospects and financial condition.

33. Our success is dependent on our ability to enter and expand our network in new markets which
is further dependent on our familiarity with the economic condition, customer base and
commercial operations in new regions.

Our success is dependent on our ability to enter and expand our network in new markets which
is further dependent on our familiarity with the economic condition, customer base and
commercial operations in new regions. With limited presence, our ability to gain market share is
also dependent on our ability to compete with companies that may have an existing strong
presence.

However, we may not be successful in expanding our network or increasing our market presence.
Further, we may also face disruptions in selling our products for various reasons such as
transportation bottlenecks, raw material inaccessibility, competition activities, labour issues,
natural disasters, etc. which may result in disruptions to our business.

34. We have in the past entered transactions with related parties and may continue to do so in the
future. These or any future related party transactions may potentially involve conflicts of
interest and there can be no assurance that we could not have achieved better terms, had such
arrangements been entered into with unrelated parties.

The table below provides summary of transactions from related parties for the period ended on
September 30, 2023, and during the last 3 fiscal years ended on March 31, 2023, March 31, 2022,

For further details in relation to transactions with related parties, please refer to the section
entitled “Related Party Transactions” on page 236. We have entered into various transactions
with related parties, including the purchase and sale of services from time to time. While we
confirm that these related party transactions entered into by us, were in compliance with the
Companies Act, 2013 as amended and other applicable laws, we cannot assure you that we could
not have achieved more favourable terms had such transactions been entered into with
unrelated parties. Also, upon listing of our Equity Shares pursuant to the issue, all related party
transactions that we may enter into, will be subject to the requirements of the Companies Act,
2013 and the SEBI Listing Regulations, there can be no assurance that such transactions,
individually or in the aggregate, will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition and
results of operations or that we could not achieve more favourable terms if such transactions had
not been entered into with related parties. Such related party transactions may potentially
involve conflicts of interest.

There is no assurance that our related party transactions in future would be on terms favourable
to us when compared to similar transactions with unrelated or third parties or that our related
party transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have an adverse effect on our financial
condition. For details, see “Financial Statements as Restated – Annexure – 32: Related Party
Transaction” on page 278.

35. Default or delay in payment by a significant portion of our customers, may have an adverse
effect on cash flows, result of operations and financial conditions.

We may encounter problems in executing the orders in relation to our products on a timely basis.
Moreover, factors beyond our control or the control of our customers may postpone the delivery
of such products or cause it cancellation. Due to the possibility of cancellation or changes in scope
and schedule of delivery of such products resulting from our customers discretion or problems
we encounter in the delivery of such products or reasons outside our control, we cannot predict
with certainty when, if or to what extent we may be able to deliver the orders placed. Additionally,
delays in the delivery of such products can lead to customers delaying or refusing to pay the
amount, in part or in full, that we expect to be paid in respect of such products. In addition, even
where a delivery proceeds as scheduled, it is possible that the customers may default or otherwise
fail to pay the amounts they owned.

Page 60 of 472
In the ordinary course of business, we extend credit to our customers. Our results of operations
and profitability depend on the creditworthiness of our customers. Certain of these customers
may have weak credit histories and we cannot assure that these counterparties will always be
able to pay us in a timely fashion, or at all. Any adverse change in the financial condition of our
customers may adversely affect their ability to make payments to us.

Default or delays in payments by a significant portion of our customers may have an adverse
effect on cash flows, results of operations and financial condition. Default or delays in payments
by a significant portion of our customers may have an adverse effect on cash flows, results of
operations and financial condition.

36. We may not have sufficient insurance coverage to cover all possible losses.

Our operations carry inherent risks of personal injury and loss of life, damage to or destruction
of property and damage to the environment, and are subject to various risks such as fire, theft,
flood, earthquakes, and terrorism. We maintain insurance coverage in amounts we consider to
be commercially appropriate. Our insured assets primarily consist of property, office equipment,
furniture, fixtures and fittings, inventory, etc. In the past three years, there have been no
instances of under insurance i.e., where our insurance cover did not adequately cover the insured
value required for our operations. However, there can be no assurance that our current and
future insurance will adequately cover all losses or liabilities that may arise from our operations,
including, but not limited to, when the loss suffered is not easily quantifiable. While we have not
had any such instance in the past three years, there can be no assurance that in the future our
losses would not significantly exceed our insurance coverage or may not be recoverable through
insurance and consequently our business, financial condition and results of operations could be
materially and adversely affected. For further details of insurance see “Our Business” on page
167.

37. Industry information included in this Red Herring Prospectus has been derived from publicly
available industry reports and/or websites. There can be no assurance that such third–party
statistical, financial, and other industry information is either complete or accurate.

We have relied on the information from various publicly available industry reports and/or
websites for the purpose of inclusion of such information in this Prospectus. These reports are
subject to various limitations and based upon certain assumptions that are subjective in nature.
We have not independently verified data from such industry reports and other sources. Although
we believe that the data may be considered to be reliable, their accuracy, completeness and
underlying assumptions are not guaranteed, and their dependability cannot be assured. While
we have taken reasonable care in the reproduction of the information, the information has not
been prepared or independently verified by us or any of our respective affiliates or advisors and,
therefore, we make no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or
completeness of such facts and statistics. Due to possibly flawed or ineffective collection
methods or discrepancies between published information and market practice and other
problems, the statistics herein may be inaccurate or may not be comparable to statistics
produced for other economies and should not be unduly relied upon. Further, there is no
assurance that they are stated or compiled on the same basis or with the same degree of accuracy
as may be the case elsewhere.

38. 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.

Page 61 of 472
We 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. Additionally, under some of our loan
agreements, we may not be permitted to declare any dividends if there is a default under such
loan agreements or unless our Company has paid all the dues to the lender up to the date on
which the dividend is declared or paid or has made satisfactory provisions thereof. Accordingly,
realization of a gain on shareholders 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.
For details of our dividend history, see “Dividend Policy” on page 237.

39. Certain of our Directors hold Equity Shares in our Company and are therefore interested in our
Company’s performance in addition to their remuneration and reimbursement of expenses.

Our directors are interested in our Company, in addition to regular remuneration or benefits and
reimbursement of expenses, to the extent of their shareholding as nominee shareholder on
behalf of our holding company or the shareholding of their relatives in our Company. There can
be no assurance that our directors will exercise their rights as Shareholders to the benefit and
best interest of our Company. For further details, see “Related Party Transactions” under
chapter titled “Financial Statements as Restated” and “Our Management” on page 278 and 208
respectively.

40. Within the parameters as mentioned in the chapter titled ‘Objects of the Issue’ beginning on
page 113, our Company’s management will have flexibility in applying the proceeds of this
Issue. The fund requirement and deployment mentioned in the Objects of this Issue have not
been appraised by any bank or financial institution.

We intend to use Issue Proceeds towards Funding the Working Capital Requirements, General
Corporate Purposes and to meet Issue expenses. We intend to deploy the Net Issue Proceeds in
FY 2023-24 and 2024-25. Such deployment is based on certain assumptions and strategy which
our Company believes to implement in near future. The funds raised from the Issue may remain
idle on account of change in assumptions, market conditions, strategy of our Company, etc., For
further details on the use of the Issue Proceeds, please refer chapter titled “Objects of the Issue”
beginning on page 113.

The deployment of funds for the purposes described above is at the discretion of our Company’s
Board of Directors. The fund requirement and deployment are based on internal management
estimates and has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. Accordingly, within the
parameters as mentioned in the chapter titled “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page 113, the
Management of the Company will have significant flexibility in applying the proceeds received by
our Company from the Issue.

However, the Audit Committee will monitor the utilization of the proceeds of this Issue and
prepare the statement for utilization of the proceeds of this Issue. However, in accordance with
Section 27 of the Companies Act, 2013, a company shall not vary the objects of the issue without
our Company being authorized to do so by our shareholders by way of special resolution and
other compliances in this regard.

41. We have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements for the
Objects of the Issue. Any shortfall in raising / meeting the same could adversely affect our
growth plans, operations, and financial performance.

Page 62 of 472
As on date, we have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements
for the objects of the Issue. We meet our capital requirements through our bank finance,
unsecured loans, owned funds and internal accruals. Any shortfall in our net owned funds,
internal accruals and our inability to raise debt in future would result in us being unable to meet
our capital requirements, which in turn will negatively affect our financial condition and results
of operations. Further we have not identified any alternate source of funding and hence any
failure or delay on our part to raise money from this Issue or any shortfall in the Issue proceeds
may delay the implementation schedule and could adversely affect our growth plans. For further
details please refer to the chapter titled “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page 113.

42. Any variation in the utilisation of the Net Proceeds would be subject to certain compliance
requirements, including prior shareholders’ approval.

Our Company intends to use Net Proceeds raised pursuant to the Fresh Issue in the manner set
out in the section titled “Objects of the Issue” on page 113. In accordance with Section 27 of the
Companies Act, 2013, we cannot undertake any variation in the utilisation of the Net Proceeds
as disclosed in this Red Herring Prospectus without obtaining the approval of shareholders of our
Company through a special resolution.

In the event of any such circumstances that require us to undertake variation in the disclosed
utilisation of the Net Proceeds, we may not be able to obtain the approval of the shareholders of
our Company in a timely manner, or at all. Any delay or inability in obtaining such approval of the
shareholders of our Company may adversely affect our business or operations. In light of these
factors, we may not be able to undertake variation of objects of the Issue to use any unutilized
proceeds of the Issue, if any, even if such variation is in the interest of our Company. This may
restrict our Company’s ability to respond to any change in our business or financial condition by
re-deploying the unutilized portion of Net Proceeds, if any, which may adversely affect our
business and results of operations.

43. If we are unable to source business opportunities effectively, we may not achieve our financial
objectives.

Our ability to achieve financial objectives will depend on our ability to identify, evaluate and
accomplish business opportunities. Our failure to source business opportunities effectively could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. It is
also possible that the strategies used by us in the future may be different from those presently
in use. No assurance can be given that our analyses of market and other data or the strategies
we use or plans in future to use will be successful under various market conditions.

44. The deployment of funds raised through this Issue shall not be subject to any Monitoring Agency
and shall be purely dependent on the discretion of the management of our Company.

Our Issue size is less than Rs. 10,000 lakhs, there is no mandatory requirement of appointing an
Independent Monitoring Agency for overseeing the deployment of utilization of funds raised
through this Issue. The deployment of these funds raised through this Issue, is hence, at the
discretion of the management and the Board of Directors of our Company and will not be subject
to monitoring by any independent agency. However, as per Section 177 of the Companies Act,
2013, the Audit Committee of our Company would be monitoring the utilization of proceeds of
the Issue. Any inability on our part to effectively utilize the Issue proceeds could adversely affect
our financials.

Page 63 of 472
45. Our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will continue jointly to retain majority
control over our Company after the Issue, which will allow them to determine the outcome of
matters submitted to shareholders for approval.

After completion of the Issue, our Promoters and Promoter Group will collectively own [●] % of
the Equity Shares. As a result, our Promoters together with the members of the Promoter Group
will be able to exercise a significant degree of influence over us and will be able to control the
outcome of any proposal that can be approved by a majority shareholder vote, including, the
election of members to our Board, in accordance with the Companies Act and our Articles of
Association. Such a concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying, preventing
or deterring a change in control of our Company. In addition, our Promoters will continue to have
the ability to cause us to take actions that are not in, or may conflict with, our interests or the
interests of some or all of our creditors or minority shareholders, and we cannot assure you that
such actions will not have an adverse effect on our future financial performance or the price of
our Equity Shares.

46. We could be harmed by employee misconduct or errors that are difficult to detect and any such
incidences could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and reputation.

Employee misconduct or errors could expose us to business risks or losses, including regulatory
sanctions and cause serious harm to our reputation. There can be no assurance that we will be
able to detect or deter such misconduct. Moreover, the precautions we take to prevent and
detect such activity may not be effective in all cases. Our employees may also commit errors that
could subject us to claims and proceedings for alleged negligence, as well as regulatory actions
on account of which our business, financial condition, results of operations and goodwill could
be adversely affected.

47. We have incurred indebtedness, and an inability to comply with repayment and other covenants
in our financing agreements could adversely affect our business and financial condition.

We have entered into agreements with certain banks for short-term and long terms facilities
which contain restrictive covenants, including requirements that we obtain NOC/Consent from
the lenders prior to undertaking certain matters including altering our capital structure, further
issuance of any shares, effecting any scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction, changing the
management and dilution of Promoters’ shareholding, and creation of security. Further, in terms
of security, we are required to create a mortgage or charge over our movable and immovable
properties. We may also be required to furnish additional security if required by our lenders.
Additionally, we are required to, among others, maintain the prescribed debt coverage ratio, net
total debt, and fixed asset coverage ratio. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
comply with these financial or other covenants at all times or that we will be able to obtain the
NOC/Consent necessary to take the actions that we believe are required to operate and grow
our business. Further, we are susceptible to changes in interest rates and the risks arising
therefrom. Certain of our financing agreements provide for interest at variable rates with a
provision for the periodic resetting of interest rates. Further, under certain of our financing
agreements, the lenders are entitled to charge the applicable rate of interest, which is a
combination of a base rate that depends upon the policies of the RBI and a contractually agreed
spread, and in the event of an adverse change in our Company’s credit risk rating. Our Company
sought to obtain the relevant NOC/Consent in relation to the Issue, from the respective lenders
in advance of the date of this Red Herring Prospectus.

Issue Specific Risks

48. Subsequent to the listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to surveillance measures, such
as the Additional Surveillance Measures and the Graded Surveillance Measures by the Stock
Exchanges in order to enhance the integrity of the market and safeguard the interest of
investors.

Subsequent to the listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to Additional Surveillance
Measures (“ASM”) and Graded Surveillance Measures (“GSM”) by the Stock Exchange. These
measures are in place to enhance the integrity of the market and safeguard the interest of
investors. The criteria for shortlisting any security trading on the Stock Exchanges for ASM is
based on objective criteria, which includes market-based parameters such as high low price
variation, concentration of client accounts, close to close price variation, market capitalization,
average daily trading volume and its change, and average delivery percentage, among others.
Securities are subject to GSM when its price is not commensurate with the financial health and
fundamentals of the issuer. Specific parameters for GSM include net worth, net fixed assets, price
to earning ratio, market capitalization and price to book value, among others.

Factors within and beyond our control may lead to our securities being subject to GSM or ASM.
In the event our Equity Shares are subject to such surveillance measures implemented by the
Stock Exchange, we may be subject to certain additional restrictions in connection with trading
of our Equity Shares such as limiting trading frequency (for example, trading either allowed once
in a week or a month) or freezing of price on upper side of trading which may have an adverse
effect on the market price of our Equity Shares or may in general cause disruptions in the
development of an active trading market for our Equity Shares.

49. There are restrictions on daily / weekly / monthly movements in the price of the Equity Shares,
which may adversely affect a shareholder’s ability to sell, or the price at which it can sell, Equity
Shares at a particular point in time.

Once listed, we would be subject to circuit breakers imposed by designated stock exchanges in
India, which does not allow transactions beyond specified increases or decreases in the price of
the Equity Shares. This circuit breaker operates independently of the index-based market-wide
circuit breakers generally imposed by SEBI on Indian stock exchanges. The percentage limit on
circuit breakers is set by the stock exchanges based on the historical volatility in the price and
trading volume of the Equity Shares. The stock exchanges do not inform us of the percentage
limit of the circuit breaker in effect from time to time and may change it without our knowledge.
This circuit breaker limits the upward and downward movements in the price of the Equity
Shares. As a result of this circuit breaker, no assurance may be given regarding your ability to sell
your Equity Shares or the price at which you may be able to sell your Equity Shares at any
particular time.

50. The Equity Shares have never been publicly traded, and, after the Issue, the Equity Shares may
experience price and volume fluctuations, and an active trading market for the Equity Shares
may not develop. Further, the price of the Equity Shares may be volatile, and you may be unable
to resell the Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price, or at all.

Prior to the Issue, there has been no public market for the Equity Shares, and an active trading
market on the Stock Exchanges may not develop or be sustained after the Issue. Listing and
quotation do not guarantee that a market for the Equity Shares will develop, or if developed, the
liquidity of such market for the Equity Shares. The Issue Price of the Equity Shares is proposed to
be determined through a fixed price process in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations and
may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares at the time of commencement of

Page 65 of 472
trading of the Equity Shares or at any time thereafter. The market price of the Equity Shares may
be subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors, variations in our
operating results of our Company, market conditions specific to the industry we operate in,
developments relating to India, volatility in securities markets in jurisdictions other than India,
variations in the growth rate of financial indicators, variations in revenue or earnings estimates
by research publications, and changes in economic, legal and other regulatory factors.

51. After this Issue, the price of the Equity Shares may be highly volatile, or an active trading market
for the Equity Shares may not develop.

The price of the Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges may fluctuate as a result of the factors,
including:

• Volatility in the Indian and global capital market;


• Company’s results of operations and financial performance;
• Performance of Company’s competitors;
• Changes in our estimates of performance or recommendations by financial analysts;
• Significant developments in India’s economic and fiscal policies; and
• Significant developments in India’s environmental regulations.

Current valuations may not be sustainable in the future and may also not be reflective of future
valuations for our industry and our Company. There has been no public market for Equity Shares
and the prices of the Equity Shares may fluctuate after this Issue. There can be no assurance that
an active trading market for the Equity Shares will develop or be sustained after this Issue or that
the price at which the Equity Shares are initially traded will correspond to the price at which the
Equity Shares will trade in the market after this Issue.

52. The Issue price of our Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity
Shares after the Issue and the market price of our Equity Shares may decline below the Issue
price and you may not be able to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price.

The Issue Price of our Equity Shares has been determined by Book Built Method. This price is be
based on numerous factors (For further information, please refer chapter titled “Basis for Issue
Price” beginning on page 126 and may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares
after the Issue. The market price of our Equity Shares could be subject to significant fluctuations
after the Issue and may decline below the Issue Price. We cannot assure you that you will be able
to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price. Among the factors that could affect our
share price include without limitation. The following:

• Half yearly variations in the rate of growth of our financial indicators, such as earnings per
share, net income and revenues.
• Changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports by analysts;
• Speculation in the press or investment community.
• General market conditions; and
• Domestic and international economic, legal, and regulatory factors unrelated to our
performance.

53. You will not be able to sell immediately on Stock Exchange any of the Equity Shares you
purchase in the Issue until the Issue receives appropriate trading permissions.

The Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchange. Pursuant to Indian regulations, certain
actions must be completed before the Equity Shares can be listed and trading may commence.

Page 66 of 472
We cannot assure you that the Equity Shares will be credited to the investor’s demat accounts,
or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence within the time periods specified in the Red
Herring Prospectus. Any failure or delay in obtaining the approval would restrict your ability to
dispose of the Equity Shares. In accordance with section 40 of the Companies Act, 2013, if
permission to list the Equity Shares is denied by the stock exchanges, we are required to refund
all monies collected to investors.

54. QIB and Non-Institutional investors are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms
of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting the Bid.

Pursuant to SEBI ICDR Regulations, QIBs and Non-Institutional investors are not permitted to
withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any
stage after submitting the Bid. Retail Individual Investors can revise their Bid during the Bid Period
and withdraw their Bids until Bid Closing date. While our Company is required to complete
Allotment pursuant to Issue within four working days from the Bid Closing date, events affecting
the Bidders decision to invest in Equity Shares, including material adverse changes in
international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic conditions, our
business, result of operations or financial condition may arise between the date of submission of
the Bid and allotment. Our Company may complete the allotment of Equity shares even if such
events occur, and such events limit the Bidders ability to sell the Equity Shares allotted pursuant
to the Issue or cause the trading price of Equity Shares to decline on listing.

55. 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.

EXTERNAL RISK

Industry Related Risks

56. Changes in government regulations or their implementation could disrupt our operations and
adversely affect our business and the results of operations.

Our business and industry are regulated by different laws, rules and regulations framed by the
Central and State Government. These regulations can be amended/ changed on a short notice at
the discretion of the Government. If we fail to comply with all applicable regulations or if the
regulations governing our business or their implementation change adversely, we may incur
increased costs or be subject to penalties, which could disrupt our operations and adversely affect
our business and results of operations.

57. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of
tax laws, may adversely affect our business and financial performance.

The regulatory and policy environment in India is evolving and subject to change. Such changes
in applicable law and policy in India, including the instances described below, may adversely
affect our business, financial condition, results of operation, performance and prospects in India,
to the extent that we are not able to suitably respond to and comply with such changes.
The Government of India implemented a comprehensive national goods and service tax (“GST”)
regime that combines taxes and levies by the central and state governments into a unified rate

Page 67 of 472
structure from July 01, 2017, which we believe will result in fundamental changes. However, given
its recent introduction, there is no established practice regarding the implementation of, and
compliance with, GST. The implementation of the new GST regime has increased the operational
and compliance burden for Indian companies and has also led to various uncertainties. Any future
increases and amendments to the GST regime may further affect the overall tax efficiency of
companies operating in India and may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable.
Our business and financial performance could be adversely affected by any unexpected or
onerous requirements or regulations resulting from the introduction of GST or any changes in
laws or interpretation of existing laws, or the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations
relating to GST, as it is implemented. Further, as GST is implemented, there can be no assurance
that we will not be required to comply with additional procedures and/or obtain additional
approvals and licenses from the government and other regulatory bodies or that they will not
impose onerous requirements and conditions on our operations. Any such changes and the
related uncertainties with respect to the implementation of GST may have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, the Finance Act, 2023 instituted a number of amendments to the existing direct and
indirect tax regime which includes the withdrawal of long-term capital gains exemptions on equity
shares, long term capital gains applicability in the hands of Foreign Institutional Investors and
applicability of dividend distribution tax for certain transactions with shareholders, among others.

58. A slowdown in economic growth in India could have an adverse effect on our business, results
of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

Purv Flexi Pack Limited is a provider of flexible packaging solutions in India. Our performance and
growth are, and will be, dependent to a large extent on the health of the Indian economy and
consumption spending by businesses and consumers. Economic growth in India is affected by
various factors including domestic consumption and savings, rate of inflation in India, balance of
trade movements, and global economic uncertainty.

Our revenue is generated primarily from the sale of direct supply of various plastic-based
products such as Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) film, Polyester Films, Cast
Polypropylene (CPP) films, Plastic granules, Inks, Adhesives, Masterbatches, Ethyl Acedate, and
Titanium Dioxide. In addition, our company is a Del Credere Associate (DCA) of Indian Oil
Corporation Limited and operates as a Dealer Operated Polymer Warehouse (DOPW) for their
polymer division. Consumption of these products has increased due to increased demand for
packaged goods in India, which has been positively and materially affecting our operating results.
Consequently, future changes in the Indian economy, especially the purchasing power of
businesses and consumers, is expected to directly impact our revenues and results of operations.
Further, India has in the past experienced high rates of inflation. In addition, from time to time,
the Government of India has taken measures to control inflation, which have included tightening
monetary policy by raising interest rates, restricting the availability of credit and inhibiting
economic growth.

Inflation, measures to combat inflation and public speculation about possible governmental
actions to combat inflation have also contributed significantly to economic uncertainty in India
and heightened volatility in the Indian capital markets. Periods of higher inflation may also slow
the growth rate of the Indian economy and increase some of our costs and expenses. To the
extent that the demand for our products decreases or costs and expenses increase, and we are
not able to pass those increases in costs and expenses on to our customers, our operating margins
and operating income may be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Other Risks

59. Significant differences exist between Indian GAAP and other accounting principles, such as U.S.
GAAP and IFRS, which may be material to the financial statements prepared and presented in
accordance with SEBI ICDR Regulations contained in this Red Herring Prospectus.

As stated in the reports of the Auditor included in this Red Herring Prospectus under chapter
“Financial Statements as restated” beginning on page 238, the financial statements included in
this Red Herring Prospectus are based on financial information that is based on the audited
financial statements that are prepared and presented in conformity with Indian GAAP and
restated in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations, and no attempt has been made to
reconcile any of the information given in this Red Herring Prospectus to any other principles or
to base it on any other standards. Indian GAAP differs from accounting principles and auditing
standards with which prospective investors may be familiar in other countries, such as U.S. GAAP
and IFRS. Significant differences exist between Indian GAAP and U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which may
be material to the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with Indian GAAP
contained in this Red Herring Prospectus.

Accordingly, the degree to which the financial information included in this Red Herring Prospectus
will provide meaningful information is dependent on familiarity with Indian GAAP, the Companies
Act and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian GAAP on the
financial disclosures presented in this Red Herring Prospectus should accordingly be limited.

60. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of
tax laws, may adversely affect our business and financial performance.

The regulatory and policy environment in India is evolving and subject to change. Such changes
in applicable law and policy in India, including the instances described below, may adversely
affect our business, financial condition, results of operation, performance and prospects in India,
to the extent that we are not able to suitably respond to and comply with such changes.

For instance, in November 2016, the Government of India demonetized certain – high value
denominations of currency. Trading and retail businesses in India were impacted for a limited
period on account of such demonetization. Such businesses have subsequently needed to
introduce additional point of sale instruments to improve their collection process.

The Government of India implemented a comprehensive national goods and service tax (“GST”)
regime that combines taxes and levies by the central and state governments into a unified rate
structure from July 01, 2017, which we believe will result in fundamental changes. However, given
its recent introduction, there is no established practice regarding the implementation of, and
compliance with, GST. The implementation of the new GST regime has increased the operational
and compliance burden for Indian companies and has also led to various uncertainties. Any future
increases and amendments to the GST regime may further affect the overall tax efficiency of
companies operating in India and may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable.
Our business and financial performance could be adversely affected by any unexpected or
onerous requirements or regulations resulting from the introduction of GST or any changes in
laws or interpretation of existing laws, or the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations
relating to GST, as it is implemented. Further, as GST is implemented, there can be no assurance
that we will not be required to comply with additional procedures and/or obtain additional
approvals and licenses from the government and other regulatory bodies or that they will not
impose onerous requirements and conditions on our operations. Any such changes and the
related uncertainties with respect to the implementation of GST may have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Page 69 of 472
Further, the General Anti Avoidance Rules came into effect on April 1, 2017. The effect of the
application of these provisions to our business in India is at present uncertain. Furthermore, the
Finance Act, 2019 instituted a number of amendments to the existing direct and indirect tax
regime which includes the withdrawal of long-term capital gains exemptions on equity shares,
long term capital gains applicability in the hands of Foreign Institutional Investors and
applicability of dividend distribution tax for certain transactions with shareholders, among
others.

61. Political instability or a change in economic liberalization and deregulation policies could
seriously harm business and economic conditions in India generally and our business in
particular.

The Government of India has traditionally exercised and continues to exercise influence over
many aspects of the economy. Our business and the market price and liquidity of our Equity
Shares may be affected by interest rates, changes in Government policy, taxation, social and civil
unrest and other political, economic or other developments in or affecting India. The rate of
economic liberalization could change, and specific laws and policies affecting the information
technology sector, foreign investment and other matters affecting investment in our securities
could change as well. Any significant change in such liberalization and de-regulation policies could
adversely affect business and economic conditions in India, generally, and our business,
prospects, financial condition and results of operations, in particular.

62. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of facts and other statistics with respect to
India, the Indian economy and industry in which our company operates contained in the Red
Herring Prospectus.

While facts and other statistics in this Red Herring Prospectus relating to India, the Indian
economy and the industry in which our company operates has been based on various
government publications and reports from government agencies that we believe are reliable, we
cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of such materials. While we have taken reasonable care
in the reproduction of such information, industry facts and other statistics have not been
prepared or independently verified by us or any of our respective affiliates or advisors and,
therefore we make no representation as to their accuracy or completeness. These facts and other
statistics include the facts and statistics included in the chapter titled “Our Industry” beginning
on page 140. Due to possibly flawed or ineffective data collection methods or discrepancies
between published information and market practice and other problems, the statistics herein
may be inaccurate or may not be comparable to statistics produced elsewhere and should not be
unduly relied upon. Further, there is no assurance that they are stated or compiled on the same
basis or with the same degree of accuracy, as the case may be, elsewhere.

63. Financial instability in Indian financial markets could adversely affect our Company’s results of
operations and financial condition.

In this globalized world, the Indian economy and financial markets are significantly influenced by
worldwide economic, financial and market conditions. Any financial turmoil, say in the United
States of America, Europe, China or other emerging economies, may have a negative impact on
the Indian economy. Although economic conditions differ in each country, investors’ reactions to
any significant developments in one country can have adverse effects on the financial and market
conditions in other countries. A loss in investor confidence in the financial systems, particularly
in other emerging markets, may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets. Indian
financial markets have also experienced the contagion effect of the global financial turmoil. Any
prolonged financial crisis may have an adverse impact on the Indian economy, thereby resulting
in a material and adverse effect on our Company's business, operations, financial condition,

Page 70 of 472
profitability and price of its Shares. Stock exchanges in India have in the past experienced
substantial fluctuations in the prices of listed securities.

64. Conditions in the Indian securities market may affect the price or liquidity of our Equity Shares.

The Indian securities markets are smaller than securities markets in more developed economies
and the regulation and monitoring of Indian securities markets and the activities of investors,
brokers and other participants differ, in some cases significantly, from those in the more
developed economies. Indian stock exchanges have in the past experienced substantial
fluctuations in the prices of listed securities. Further, the Indian stock exchanges have
experienced volatility in the recent times. The Indian stock exchanges have also experienced
problems that have affected the market price and liquidity of the securities of Indian companies,
such as temporary exchange closures, broker defaults, settlement delays and strikes by brokers.
In addition, the governing bodies of the Indian stock exchanges have from time-to-time restricted
securities from trading and limited price movements. A closure of, or trading stoppage on the
SME Platform of BSE Limited could adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

65. Global economic, political, and social conditions may harm our ability to do business, increase
our costs and negatively affect our stock price.

Global economic and political factors that are beyond our control, influence forecasts and directly
affect performance. These factors include interest rates, rates of economic growth, fiscal and
monetary policies of governments, inflation, deflation, foreign exchange fluctuations, consumer
credit availability, fluctuations in commodities markets, consumer debt levels, unemployment
trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence, spending and tourism. Increasing
volatility in financial markets may cause these factors to change with a greater degree of
frequency and magnitude, which may negatively affect our stock prices.

66. 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.

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.

67. The extent and reliability of Indian infrastructure could adversely affect our Company’s results
of operations and financial condition.

India’s physical infrastructure is in developing phase compared to that of many developed


nations. Any congestion or disruption in its port, rail and road networks, electricity grid,
communication systems or any other public facility could disrupt our Company’s normal business
activity. Any deterioration of India’s physical infrastructure would harm the national economy;
disrupt the transportation of goods and supplies, and costs to doing business in India. These
problems could interrupt our Company’s business operations, which could have an adverse effect
on its results of operations and financial condition.

Page 71 of 472
68. Any downgrading of India’s sovereign rating by an independent agency may harm our ability
to raise financing.

Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings for domestic and international debt by international
rating agencies may adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing, and the interest
rates and other commercial terms at which such additional financing may be available. This could
have an adverse effect on our business and future financial performance, our ability to obtain
financing for capital expenditures and the trading price of our Equity Shares.

69. 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, could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows or
financial condition. Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may adversely affect the
Indian securities markets. 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

the market price of the Equity Shares.

Maker(s), for the quotes given by him.

7. There would not be more than five Market Makers for the Company’s Equity Shares at any point

Reasons for raising additional working capital

Our company is seizing an opportunity to import polymer of non-IOCL grades from countries like
Middle east, China, Singapore and USA. Our group companies are already importing these types of
polymers from abroad and consuming them in our subsidiary company and selling them in open
market. As per our management survey there is huge potential for these type of products in India and
our company plans to import them on large scale basis. At present prices of these type of polymers is
cheap in comparison to Indian manufactured polymers and our company wants to cash-in the
opportunity as we have established connects in the corporates and users using these polymers due
our experience in this line of trade for more than 30 years. Our company also plan to expand its
product range further and explore new avenues of growth i.e.

• Aluminum Foil of SRF which uses in the application in household foil, flexible packaging and
pharma sector
• Different chemical of Solvay which uses in the application in Binder, Adhesive, Paints, Solvent,
Floor Cleaning etc.

To fund the import of these non-IOCL grade polymers, we require substantial funds in addition to our
sanctioned working capital limits. At present, cost of these polymers is around 1,15,000 lac/per tonne
which includes custom duty and clearance charges. Price of these polymers is very volatile and keeps
on fluctuating as per international crude price. We plan to import around 1,100-1,300 tonne per month
and need fund to acquire them. Further with the additions of aluminum foil and chemical Solvay in our
products portfolio, our investment in inventories will increase.

GLOBAL ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

GLOBAL PROSPECTS

The global economy remains in a precarious state amid the protracted effects of the overlapping
negative shocks of the pandemic, the Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine, and the sharp
tightening of monetary policy to contain high inflation. The
resilience that global economic activity exhibited earlier

and the drag on
growth from the ongoing monetary tightening to restore
price stability is expected to peak in 2023 in many major
economies. Recent banking sector stress will further tighten
credit conditions. This will result in a substantial growth
deceleration in the second half of this year. This slowdown
will compound a period of already-subdued growth—over
the first half of the 2020s (2020-2024), growth in EMDEs is
expected to average just 3.4 percent, one of the weakest half-
decades of the past 30 years. This slowdown reflects both
cyclical dynamics and the current trend of declining global potential output growth.

Global financial conditions have tightened as a result of policy rate hikes and, to a lesser extent, recent
bouts of financial instability. Many banks experienced substantial unrealized losses due to the sharp
rise in policy interest rates. Concerns about the viability of balance sheets of some banks led to
depositor flight and market volatility in the United States and Europe earlier in the year, which were
stemmed by a swift and extensive policy response. Financial markets remain highly sensitive to
evolving expectations about the future path of interest rates of major central banks. Spillovers from
banking turmoil in advanced economies to EMDEs have so far been limited. However, countries with

Page 140 of 472


Contributions to potential growth more pronounced macroeconomic policy vulnerabilities, as
reflected by lower credit ratings, have experienced slower
growth and greater financial stress, including large currency
depreciations and a sharp widening of sovereign spreads.
Projections for 2023 growth in these economies have fallen
by more than half over the past year.

Inflation pressures persist. Although global headline inflation


has been decelerating as a result of base effects, abating
supply chain pressures, and falling commodity prices, core
inflation in many countries remains elevated, and inflation is above target in almost all inflation-
targeting economies. Inflation is expected to continue to be above its pre-pandemic level beyond 2024
(figure 1.1.E). That said, inflation expectations in most inflation targeting countries have so far not
undergone a major shift and appear to remain anchored.

GLOBAL RISK AND POLICY CHALLENGES

Global inflation is projected to gradually edge down as growth decelerates, labor demand in many
economies softens, and commodity prices remain stable. The slow pace of improvement means that
core inflation is expected to remain above central bank targets in many countries throughout 2024.

Risks to the outlook remain tilted to the downside. Recent advanced-economy bank turmoil highlights
the possibility of more disorderly failures, which could lead to systemic banking crises and protracted
economic downturns, with spillovers to sovereigns and across borders. These failures could be
triggered by mounting concerns about balance sheet quality, continued losses in the heavily leveraged

imply a contraction in global per capita GDP.

Many of the current challenges reflect underlying


longer-run trends. Potential growth in EMDEs has been on a decades-long declining path because of
slowing growth rates of labor force, investment, and productivity. The slowdown in these fundamental
factors has been exacerbated by the overlapping shocks of the pandemic, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,
and the sharp tightening of global monetary policy in response to high inflation. Reversing the decline
in potential growth will require decisive structural reforms. These include measures to improve
investment conditions, develop human capital and infrastructure, increase participation in the formal
labor force, foster productivity growth in services, and promote international trade. In particular,
fostering investment in green energy and climate resilience can ensure that growth is both robust and
sustainable.

and suppliers’ delivery times reached their lowest


levels in almost four years in the first half of 2023 and
are expected to remain low.

During the pandemic, trade growth was supported by a shift in the composition of demand toward
tradable goods and away from services, which are less trade-intensive. The gradual rotation of
demand back to its pre-pandemic composition is now slowing trade growth- as is the fact that the

Page 142 of 472


recovery in China is expected to be predominantly driven by services, which will limit positive
spillovers to its trading partners through demand for goods and commodities. The growing number of
restrictive trade measures reflects a rising degree of geopolitical tensions and attempts by some major
economies to follow more inward-looking policies. In the longer term, this will likely reshape global
supply chains and increase trade costs (EBRD 2023; Góes and Bekkers 2022).

New trade measures Together, these factors are expected to further

only slightly stronger than GDP growth. The trade


outlook is subject to various downside risks,
including weaker-than-expected global demand,
tighter global financial conditions, worsening trade tensions between major economies, mounting
geopolitical uncertainty, and a further rise in protectionist measures (Aiyar et al. 2023; Metivier et al.

GLOBAL INFLATION Inflation remains above target in almost all inflation-


targeting economies. Median headline global inflation stood at 7.2 percent year-on-year in April, down
from a peak of 9.4 percent in July 2022. This deceleration largely reflects favorable base effects from
commodity prices falling below their 2022 peaks, along with abating supply chain pressures.

GLOBAL FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENTS

Advanced-economy banks started the year with unrealized losses on bond portfolios, which increased
as interest rates rose. This, combined with shortcomings in risk management, contributed to the
failure of several regional banks in the United States. In Europe, Credit Suisse came under intense
market pressure in March and was subject to an emergency takeover. The initial emergence of banking
stress drove a surge in market volatility, including the sharpest five-day drop in two-year U.S. yields in
more than two decades and a large decline in bank equity prices. To bolster market confidence and
limit contagion to the broader financial system, authorities have responded with emergency liquidity
facilities. The U.S. authorities also introduced an expanded deposit guarantee for the banks that failed
in March. Central banks have nonetheless reaffirmed intentions to maintain, or increase, the tightness
of monetary policy until inflation shows a clear trend toward target. Even with continued signs of
banking stress, broader risk appetite in advanced-economy financial markets has been notably
resilient. High-yield corporate risk spreads have mostly stayed below their post-2010 average, despite
bank lending standards reaching their most restrictive levels since the global financial crisis.

Spillovers from advanced-economy banking stress have so far been limited in most EMDEs, but have
exhibited a similar divergence. Market perceptions of the creditworthiness of investment grade
EMDEs (as measured by credit-default swap premia) were little affected in March, after the first bank
failures in advanced economies; in contrast, credit default swap spreads for non-investment grade
sovereign borrowers widened notably.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND OUTLOOK

Advanced-economy growth is projected to slow to an annual average of 0.7 percent in 2023. This
largely reflects the continued effect of considerable central bank policy rate hikes since early 2022.
More restrictive credit conditions due to banking sector stress in advanced economies should slow
domestic demand further in 2023. Past increases in energy prices and the expected softening in labor
markets are also projected to weigh on activity. Growth is expected to accelerate modestly to 1.2
percent in 2024 due to a pickup in the euro area.

Growth in EMDEs is projected to edge up to 4 percent in 2023, which almost entirely reflects the
rebound in China. Excluding China, EMDE growth is set to decline to 2.9 percent this year, from 4.1
percent last year, due to the drag from high inflation and the associated monetary tightening—both
domestically and via monetary policy spillovers from advanced economies—as well as from slowing

Page 144 of 472


external demand. From a regional perspective, growth is set to slow in all regions except EAP and ECA
(box 1.1). Growth in EMDEs excluding China is expected to pick up modestly to 3.4 percent in 2024, as
the effects of monetary tightening diminish and several larger EMDEs emerge from domestic strains,
including natural disasters, power shortages, and political turbulence.

INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

INTRODUCTION

Strong economic growth in the first quarter of FY 2022-23 helped India


overcome the UK to become the fifth-largest economy after it recovered
from repeated waves of COVID-19 pandemic shock. Real GDP in the first
quarter of 2022–23 is currently about 4% higher than its corresponding
2019-20, indicating a strong start for India's recovery from the pandemic.
Given the release of pent-up demand and the widespread vaccination
coverage, the contact-intensive services sector will probably be the main
driver of development in 2022–2023. Rising employment and
substantially 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, and
with the revival in monsoon and the Kharif sowing, agriculture is also picking up momentum. The
contact-based services sector has largely demonstrated promise to boost growth by unleashing the
pent-up demand over the period of April-September 2022. 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.

MARKET SIZE
India’s nominal gross domestic product (GDP) at current prices is
estimated to be at Rs. 232.15 trillion (US$ 3.12 trillion) in FY22.
With more than 100 unicorns valued at US$ 332.7 billion, India has
the third-largest unicorn base in the world. The government is also
focusing on renewable sources to generate energy and is planning
to achieve 40% of its energy from non-fossil sources by 2030.
According to the McKinsey Global Institute, India needs to boost
its rate of employment growth and create 90 million non-farm jobs
between 2023 and 2030 in order to increase productivity and
economic growth. The net employment rate needs to grow by
1.5% per annum from 2023 to 2030 to achieve 8-8.5% GDP growth
between 2023 and 2030. India's current account deficit (CAD),
primarily driven by an increase in the trade deficit, stood at 2.1%
of GDP in the first quarter of FY 2022-23. Exports fared remarkably well during the pandemic and aided

Page 145 of 472


recovery when all other growth engines were losing steam in terms of their contribution to GDP. Going
forward, the contribution of merchandise exports may waver as several of India’s trade partners
witness an economic slowdown. According to Mr. Piyush Goyal, Minister of Commerce and Industry,
Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and Textiles, Indian exports are expected to reach US$
1 trillion by 2030.

ROAD AHEAD
In the second quarter of FY 2022-23, the growth momentum of the first quarter was sustained, and
high-frequency indicators (HFIs) performed well in July and August of 2022. India's comparatively
strong position in the external sector reflects the country's generally positive outlook for economic
growth and rising employment rates. India ranked fifth in foreign direct investment inflows among the
developed and developing nations listed for the first quarter of 2022.

India's economic story during the first half of the current financial year highlighted the unwavering
support the government gave to its capital expenditure, which, in FY 2022–23 (until August 2022),
stood 46.8% higher than the same period last year. The ratio of revenue expenditure to capital outlay
decreased from 6.4 in the previous year to 4.5 in the current year, signalling a clear change in favour
of higher-quality spending. Stronger revenue generation as a result of improved tax compliance,
increased profitability of the company, and increasing economic activity also contributed to rising
capital spending levels.

Despite the continued global slowdown, India's exports climbed at the second highest rate this
quarter. With a reduction in port congestion, supply networks are being restored. The CPI-C and WPI
inflation reduction from April 2022 already reflects the impact. In August 2022, CPI-C inflation was
7.0%, down from 7.8% in April 2022. Similarly, WPI inflation has decreased from 15.4% in April 2022
to 12.4% in August 2022. With a proactive set of administrative actions by the government, flexible
monetary policy, and a softening of global commodity prices and supply-chain bottlenecks,
inflationary pressures in India look to be on the decline overall.

FLEXIBLE PACKAGING INDUSTRY

GLOBAL MARKET
The global flexible packaging market was valued at $68.5 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach
$102.8 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2021 to 2031.

The finest characteristics of plastics and films are combined in flexible packaging. Such versatile
packaging supplies functional solution that requires minimal production costs. From consumer goods

Page 149 of 472


to electronics and cosmetics to medical supplies, flexible packaging is an important component in the
supply chain of many industries and products. Flexible packaging adds value and marketability of both
food and non-food products by combining the finest qualities of plastic, film, paper, and aluminum
foil to provide a wide range of protective properties with the least amount of material.

Flexible plastic packaging uses a variety of plastic materials for the packaging of wide range of
products. The type of material used in packaging depends upon the application and type of product
to be packaged. Flexible plastic packaging typically uses plastic materials including polyethylene,
polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride. Flexible packaging is the most efficient and cost-
effective approach for preserving, distributing, and packaging food products, beverages,
pharmaceuticals, and a variety of consumables.

Increase in demand for snack and convenience food in small or single size portions fuels the growth
of the flexible packaging market. The packaging industry is moving toward flexible packaging, owing
to its multi-fold energy and environmental advantages. Moreover, growing concerns regarding the
use of bio-degradable plastics for flexible packaging and its impact on the environment have also
driven manufacturers to develop sustainable packaging options that are safe and secure. In order to
reduce the cost pressure and maintain the integrity of product packages, manufacturers are
considering sustainable packaging solutions that require fewer materials and energy to manufacture
a package, reduce transportation expenses, and offer extended shelf-life to the product. Flexible
packaging prevents moisture to enter in the packages and prevents corrosion. These advantages of
flexible packaging will drive the market growth during the forecast period. However, recycling of
plastic packaging waste is a complex process that requires state-of-the-art infrastructural facilities. It
is a time-consuming process that needs personnel expertise. This may hamper the growth of the
flexible packaging market.

Asia-Pacific is home to the world's largest working population. The need for packaging has been
increasing as a result of growth in population, rise in income levels, urbanization, change in lifestyles,
increase in internet penetration, and surge in development of the economy.

PACKAGING FILM INDUSTRY

Page 151 of 472


The packaging film market is expected to witness a CAGR of 6% over the forecast period. The
disposable income of consumers, urbanization and the demand for packaged food are the factors
attributed to the growth of the market in emerging countries.

Plastic film is a continuous sheet of thin polymer material. "Sheet" is a common term for thicker plastic
material. These delicate plastic membranes are employed as barriers, to retain objects, to divide
spaces or volumes, and as printable surfaces.
• The growing e-commerce market and surge in demand for consumer goods and health products
are driving demand for packaging films. Further, the rise in food delivery services due to
maintaining hygiene and increasing investment in food delivery sectors post-pandemic are
essential factors supporting the market's growth.
• Furthermore, the rising demand from the retail sector for the extended shelf life of packaged
products and the consumers' demand for convenience products are augmenting the sales of
packaging films in the retail industry.
• The rapidly growing usage of films in food packaging is significantly contributing to the growth of
the packaging film market. This can be attributed to the increasing trend of down-gauging, which
has supported the shift from rigid to flexible packaging. A strong focus on extending product shelf
life and reducing packaging material waste, combined with a growing preference for packaged
fresh foods such as fruits, meat, vegetables, and seafood, have increased demand for packaging
films.
• However, the volatility of raw material prices, the ongoing drive for sustainability which includes
replacing plastic-based packaging products with biodegradable materials, and mandates of using
PCR (post-consumer recycled) plastics in response to growing environmental concerns are some
of the major factors hampering the market growth.
• The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a significant increase in the demand for film packaging. The
market experienced a marked increase in need through the rise in online shopping and food
takeaway, which has led to an upsurge in the amount of packaging film usage. At the same time,
the accelerated shift towards e-commerce resulted in a permanent plateau in production.
Further, the Russia-Ukraine war has an impact on the overall packaging ecosystem.

PACKAGING FILM MARKET TRENDS


This section covers the major market trends shaping the Packaging Film Market according to our
research experts:
➢ A Surge in E-commerce Business has Fueled Demand for Packaging
• Because of COVID-19, there has been a renewed interest in packaging hygiene due to
increased safety concerns. Furthermore, the period saw an increase in e-commerce, which
increased the demand for well-designed and functional packaging films that are both
sustainable and hygienic.
• With the massive growth in online ordering, packaging film has gained popularity in the e-
commerce market due to its discreet characteristics, which include being thicker than
traditional clear shrink films to ensure durability and performance while keeping the
contents of shipment private and having higher tear strength.
• Shrink films are widely used for wrapping food packaging products in the e-commerce sector
owing to their benefits, such as optimal shelf life and better oxygen transmission rates. With
the demand for shrink film from the rapidly growing food industry, manufacturers are
focusing on expanding their capacity to cater to this significant demand. For instance, In
January 2022, IPG expanded its North American shrink film production by acquiring a new
film plant in Everetts, NC, which allowed the company to expand its production capacity and
product types.
• The retail sector has witnessed strong growth due to changing lifestyles and rising disposable
income. The emergence of online delivery services has shifted people's shopping habits from
Page 152 of 472
traditional to e-commerce in the countries like Thailand. Modern retail stores such as
supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores have also risen significantly. Thailand's
retail sales, including online and in-store purchases, have increased dramatically in the past
few years.

(Source: [Link]

➢ Asia-Pacific and Europe Contribute to Healthy Growth Rate over the Forecast Period
• China is expected to account for the largest market share in the packaging films market of
the Asia Pacific region, majorly due to its large middle-class population, increasing disposable
incomes, and high demand for packaged food and pharmaceutical products. The increasing
pharmaceutical production in the region is significantly driving the growth of the packaging
film market in the region.
• The e-commerce sector's growing presence in Southeast Asian nations such as Thailand is
paving the way for packaging film in the region. Moreover, custom-made packaging films
and wraps are required for industrial applications involving industrial powders, granular

BOPP FILMS MARKET-INDIA


The Indian BOPP films market is expected to witness a
CAGR of 5% during the forecast period (2021-2026). The
market trend is predicted to gain traction in the anticipated
years due to the fact that BOPP films are more flexible and
enable faster packaging with advanced sealing properties,
compared to other packaging materials. This has pushed
manufacturers to come up with new techniques pertaining
to the manufacturing of BOPP films to serve the demand of
various industries.
• BOPP films offer excellent moisture barrier, and the
metalized variant provides a better oxygen barrier.
These properties of BOPP films play a crucial role in food packaging to extend the shelf life of
products, thereby reducing food waste. Apart from the barrier properties, BOPP films provide
consistent seal integrity because of narrow gauge spread. Good heat seal strength, broad sealing
window lower seal initiation temperature, and good machinability further enhance their utility in
the food packaging industry for protecting food quality.
• One of the primary factors that will lead to the growth of BOPP films use is their relatively low
carbon footprint compared to other plastic films. Because of its low melting point, BOPP films
require lower energy to get converted from one form to another. Further, BOPP film is part of
the wider polyolefin chemical family, which means it can be laminated with polyethylene film and
still widely accepted in the recycling waste stream. In many applications, the consumption of
BOPP film has benefitted from the sustainability drive at the expense of other polymers.
• With the recent outbreak of COVID-19, the pouch packaging manufacturers are facing supply
chain disruption along with decreasing manufacturing at the site in many parts of the world. To
ensure the smooth flow of supply chain, much Global food safety initiative (GFSI) certification
programs are providing six-month certificate extensions by conducting a remote audit and risk
assessment pertaining to COVID-19 such that the company can approve a new supplier location
without an on-site audit to meet the demand.
• Moreover, the outbreak will see the spur of flexible packaging uses across the country. India has
very low consumption per capita of flexible packaging for fresh and processed meat and seafood,
compared to Japan, the United States, and Western Europe. But the usage has been increased
due to several advantages offered by flexible packaging solutions, such as live on-site butchering,
including improved sterilization, tracing and recall, and extended shelf life.

Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene Films (BOPP films) are manufactured by stretching the polypropylene
films. These films are widely used in applications, such as packaging, labeling, and lamination. BOPP
films are considered to be the barrier films substrate for food packaging, offering inherent moisture
barrier properties, sealability, high clarity, and graphic reproduction and shelf appear. The study of
the market has considered the wide range of applications of BOPP films in flexible packaging and
industrial usages.

Growing Demand for Packaged Food to Drive the Market Growth
• The packaged food or ready to eat food is one of the fastest-growing segments, especially in
urban centers. The fast-paced life in urban cities and the steep rise in income and the standard
of living is leading to the increasing use of packaged food.
• According to the IBEF, the Indian food and grocery market is the world’s sixth-largest, with retail
contributing 70% of the sales. The Indian food processing industry accounts for 32% of the
country’s total food market, one of the largest industries in India, and is ranked fifth in terms of
production, consumption, export, and expected growth. Also, according to the data provided by
the Department of Industrial Policies and Promotion (DIPP), the food processing sector in India
received around USD 7.54 billion worth of foreign direct investment (FDI) during April 2000-
March 2019.
• Moreover, companies are investing in the Indian food market. For instance, Cargill Inc., a US-
based food company, aims to double its branded consumer business in India by the end of 2020,
by doubling its retail reach to about 800,000 outlets and increasing market share to become a
national leader in the sunflower oil category, which will help the company be among the top three
leading brands in India.

Industrial Application of BOPP to Grow Significantly


• BOPP film is part of the wider polyolefin chemical family, which means it can be laminated with
polyethylene film, and still be widely accepted in the recycling waste stream. In many
applications, the consumption of BOPP film has benefitted from the sustainability drive at the
expense of other polymers. Also, when organoclay and nanocomposite materials are blended
with BOPP, their barrier properties are enhanced. PVA (Poly (vinyl alcohol)) and MA (Maleic
Anhydride) are the most suitable materials for minimizing the oxygen permeability of the films.
• Due to the high growth rate in the Indian economy, the BOPP market in the country is witnessing
a high growth rate because of the surging development of the pharmaceutical, retail, cosmetic
industry apart from the food and beverage industry. The e-commerce sector has one of the
largest applications of BOPP self-adhesive tapes in the country, as it offers superior mechanical
and optical features.
• In India, owing to the low cost of production, the players are expanding their production
capacities to meet the increasing demand for BOPP. For instance, Cosmo films has announced
to increase its production capacity of BOPP to 0.035 million megatons, which is expected to be
commercialized by the end of 2020. Similarly, Jindal Polyfilms will increase its production
capacity to 0.044 million megatons.

INK MARKET-INDIA
India has emerged as one of the largest consumers and producers of
inks in the Asia Pacific region. An ever increasing middle-class has
propelled the ink usage in most of the sub-segments of the industry.

However, COVID-19 has slackened the pace of growth in some of the


key sub-segments of ink industry during the last 16 months. Ink
World presents an overview of the Indian ink industry and impact of
COVID-19 on the industry.

Overview of the Indian Ink Industry

Catered by nearly all the multinational ink producers and an increasing


number of domestic ink producers, the Indian ink industry has
registered steady growth rates during last few (barring the year 2020) years. Along with multinational
ink producers, domestic ink producers have started to invest in capacity and capability expansions in
recent years. However, the ongoing COVID crisis has been a big dampener for some of the sub-
segments of the ink industry. Like the rest of the global ink industry, 2020 was a year fraught with

Page 161 of 472


multiple challenges for the Indian ink industry and producers. Most of the industry stakeholders are
unanimous that the overall volume of ink consumption suffered a decline of 3% to 4% in 2020.

Negative economic growth was the prime reason behind the decline in ink consumption in the country
in 2020. The Indian economy slowed down from its growth track on account of a stringent lockdown
imposed in March to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. India’s GDP declined by 7.3% in
fiscal 2020-21, for the first time in four decades. However, the medium-term growth outlook is
expected to improve and record a growth rate of approximately 7.3% by 2025 on account of strong
macroeconomic fundamentals, including moderate inflation, the implementation of key structural
reforms and the improved fiscal and monetary policies.

COVID-19 has resulted in a mixed impact on different segments. Though all businesses were severely
impacted in the country during March-June 2020 due to increased demand of packaged food items,
the flexible packaging segment started to make a quick recovery after June 2020 and soon stabilized
at near pre-COVID-19 levels. Other packaging segments also recovered and came close to pre-COVID-
19 levels by the last quarter of 2020.

The publication inks business, however, has had the severest impact. The newspaper industry is still
below pre-COVID-19 levels due to the drop in advertising revenue and circulation.

Decline in volume in ink production and consumption is evident from the financial numbers of some
of the ink producers in the country. For example, in 2020, DIC India’s ink business (the company
operates in two segments, inks and lamination adhesives) registered total sales revenue of INR 5.491
billion, a drop of 24% against sales of INR 7.262 billion in 2019.

ETHYL ACETATE MARKET-INDIA


The India ethyl acetate market size was valued at $432.0 million
in 2021, and is projected to reach $824.4 million by 2031,
growing at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2022 to 2031.

Ethyl acetate is a colorless, volatile, and flammable liquid with


a fruity odor. It is commonly used as a solvent in various
industries in India, including pharmaceuticals, paints and
coatings, printing inks, adhesives, and food flavorings.

One of the primary uses of ethyl acetate in India is in the


pharmaceutical industry. Ethyl acetate is used as a solvent in drug manufacturing processes,
particularly for the extraction of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) from plants. India is a
significant producer of generic drugs, and the demand for ethyl acetate as a solvent is expected to
continue to grow as the Indian pharmaceutical industry expands.

In the paints and coatings industry, ethyl acetate is used as a solvent for nitrocellulose lacquers, acrylic
lacquers, and other coating systems. The growth of the Indian construction industry has led to an
increase in demand for paints and coatings, which in turn has boosted the demand for ethyl acetate
as a solvent. The printing industry in India also uses ethyl acetate as a solvent for inks. Ethyl acetate-
based inks are fast-drying and produce high-quality prints, making them ideal for printing on a variety
of surfaces, including paper, plastic, and metal.

India ethyl acetate market, by application


On the basis of application, the process solvents segment dominated the India ethyl acetate market
in 2021. In the manufacturing of pharmaceutical and cosmetic goods, ethyl acetate is used as a process
solvent. It is especially helpful when removing natural goods like essential oils from plant-based
materials. The creation of flavors and aromas involves the use of process solvents. When

Page 164 of 472


decaffeinated coffee and tea are made, it is also employed as a solvent for the separation of caffeine.
Ethyl acetate is used as a process solvent in the production of pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.
It is particularly useful for extracting natural products, such as essential oils, from plant materials.
Process solvent is used in the production of flavors and fragrances. Ethyl acetate is becoming
increasingly popular as a process solvent for adhesives used in a variety of sectors, including
automotive, construction, and woodworking. Ethyl acetate is a commonly used solvent for extracting
flavors and fragrances from natural sources like fruits, flowers, and spices. Ethyl acetate is considered
safe for use in food applications as it is non-toxic and has a low odor & taste.

As per the Careerizma, the food processing business accounts for around $130 billion from overall
Indian food and beverage industry. It contributes 10% of agricultural GDP and 12% of manufacturing
GDP. Thus, the increasing demand for process solvents is expected to boost the India ethyl acetate
market during the forecast period.

India ethyl acetate market, by end-use industry


By end-use industry, the pharmaceuticals segment dominated the India ethyl acetate market in terms
of revenue in 2021. The pharmaceutical industry frequently uses the versatile solvent ethyl acetate to
produce a range of medications, including antibiotics, analgesics, and anti-inflammatory drugs. Active
pharmaceutical ingredients and other substances that are insoluble in water can be dissolved with
special success using this method. In order to extract natural substances from plant materials for use
in pharmaceutical goods, ethyl acetate is also employed. It is frequently used to remove alkaloids,
essential oils, and other active substances from medicinal plants.

Ethyl acetate is used as a purification solvent in the pharmaceutical industry to remove impurities and
contaminants from pharmaceutical compounds. It is a mild solvent that can dissolve many types of
impurities without affecting the purity of the active ingredient. Ethyl acetate is also growing in
popularity as a coating material for tablets and capsules to improve their appearance, taste, and
stability. It is used as a solvent for various pharmaceutical formulations, including injectables and oral
suspensions.

TITANIUM DIOXIDE MARKET-INDIA


According to ChemAnalyst report, “India Titanium Dioxide
Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency,
Demand & Supply, End-User Industries, Sales Channel, Regional
Demand, Company Share, Foreign Trade, FY2015-FY2032”, The
India Titanium Dioxide Market is likely to grow at a CAGR of 3.97%
during the forecasted period by FY2032. The end-use industries
Paints & Coatings, Plastic & Polymers, and Others are anticipated to
boost the demand for Titanium Dioxide in India in the upcoming
years. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is derived from the mineral ilmenite
(FeO.TiO2), which can be found in the metamorphic, igneous rocks
and beach sands of India. India has huge reserves of ilmenite and
rutile, majorly located in the coastal regions of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, and Odisha.
Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) is a white permanent pigment popularly used as a raw material in several
downstream industries such as paints, paper, toothpaste, plastics, inks, etc. TiO2 can be further
categorized into its polymorphic forms- Anatase, Rutile, and Brookite. Of the three, only Anatase and
Rutile hold commercial importance. Rutile TiO2 is comparatively more durable and stable with
efficient light scattering properties than Anatase pigments which are less durable and are commonly
used in low-quality dispersion paints, self-cleaning paints, and in road marking paints. However, Rutile
pigments encompass a much broader application portfolio and cover almost all paint types. Apart

Page 165 of 472


from paints, Anatase grade is also used in other applications such as plastics, paper, textiles,
detergents, printing inks, etc. while Rutile grade is used in the plastics and printing inks sectors.

It offers its most whiteness and opacity when used in paintings. High concealing power, or the capacity
to hide or disguise the underlying substrate, is given to paint as a result. No other white pigment does
this function as well as it does. The most significant ingredient now employed by the paint industry
for whiteness and opacity is titanium dioxide pigment. Thus, Paints & Coatings is the primary driver of
the Titanium Dioxide market in India. It is frequently utilised in the paint and coatings industry because
it scatters visible light effectively and adds whiteness, brilliance, and opacity to coatings. The building,
construction, and automotive end-user industries are expanding quickly, which is causing a boom in
the paints and coatings industry. Apart from that, because of its non-toxic nature and UV absorption
properties, TiO2 is also suitable for use in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, toothpaste, and even in
foodstuffs, which also augments the market. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is often used in the cosmetics
industry because it provides a high colour context, including greater intensity and brightness, helps
absorb oils produced by the skin, and shelters it from UV radiation.

The India Titanium Dioxide Market is segmented based on end-use, sales channel, and region. Based
on end-use, the India Titanium Dioxide market is segregated into Paints & Coatings, Plastic & Polymers,
and Others. Among these Paints & Coatings is dominating the Titanium Dioxide market. This segment
held roughly 60% of the Titanium Dioxide market in FY2022. Titanium dioxide is used in the paint and
coatings industry to increase opacity and endurance, to assure the paint's longevity, and maintain
freshness.

Geographically, the India Titanium Dioxide Market is segregated into North, South, East, and West. In
the historic period of FY2015-FY2022, West India has been dominating the market. In FY2022, West
India accounted for approximately 60% of the market. West India has been the frontrunner in the
consumption of Titanium Dioxide for a variety of uses due to the presence of significant paints &
coatings manufacturers like Asian Paints in states like Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Maharashtra.

Overall, each type of film has its unique properties and advantages, and the choice of film depends
on the specific requirements of the application.

5. Ink
Printing inks are important for providing information and
marketing on packaging. They can be used on various
packaging materials like plastics, paper, board, and cork. In
plastic packaging, inks are used to print details like product
information, logos, barcodes, and other important
information. It is crucial to use ink that is suitable for the
specific plastic material and can stick well to the surface of
the plastic film or container. This ensures that the printed
information is clear, durable, and stays intact on the
packaging.

Also, Offset printing ink, used in high-volume printing, is a paste-like substance made of pigments for

Page 177 of 472


color and a vehicle—a blend of oils, resins, and solvents—for adhesion and drying. During printing, the
ink adheres to image areas on a plate, is then transferred to a rubber blanket, and finally applied to the
printing surface. The ink must dry quickly, facilitated by solvent evaporation and paper absorption. The
process typically uses cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK) inks to create a broad color spectrum.

6. Titanium Dioxide
Titanium dioxide is extensively utilized as a pigment in
printing inks. It plays a crucial role in white inks, providing
excellent opacity and hiding power to effectively cover the
underlying substrate, making the printed content more
visually appealing. Additionally, titanium dioxide is
employed in colored inks to enhance their color intensity
and brilliance, resulting in more vibrant and attractive
printed materials.

7. Master Batch
Masterbatch (MB) is a solid additive that serves the purpose
of coloring (color masterbatch) or enhancing other
properties (additive masterbatch) of plastic materials. It is
produced through a process called encapsulation, where a
concentrated blend of pigments and/or additives is mixed
with a carrier matrix resin using heat or twin-screw
extrusion. The resulting mixture is cooled and then cut into
granules. Masterbatch provides an economical solution for
coloring raw polymer, allowing processors to achieve
desired colors efficiently and cost-effectively.

8. Solventless Adhesives
Solventless adhesives are a type of glue that doesn't
contain any harmful chemicals called solvents. Solvents are
substances that help dissolve or thin out other substances,
but they can be harmful to the environment and human
health. Solventless adhesives, on the other hand, use
different methods to bond materials together without the
need for solvents. They often rely on chemical reactions or
heat to create a strong and durable bond. These adhesives
are considered safer and more environmentally friendly
compared to adhesives that use solvents.

Solventless adhesives are widely used in industries such as packaging, automotive, construction,
electronics, medical, and aerospace. They provide strong bonding without the use of harmful solvents,
ensuring safer and more environmentally friendly adhesive solutions. Solventless adhesives are
employed for applications including flexible packaging, automotive component bonding, construction
materials, electronics assembly, medical device manufacturing, and aerospace composites, offering
reliable and durable bonding properties in these sectors.

9. Ethyl Acetate
Ethyl acetate is a highly flammable, colorless liquid widely
used as a solvent in different industries, including ink
production for packaging materials. It is favored for its low
toxicity, low boiling point, and strong solvency for resins
and polymers. Its moderate evaporation rate prevents ink
from drying out too fast. Ethyl acetate serves as an effective
solvent, ensuring proper ink application and drying time in
packaging printing, enabling vibrant and long-lasting
results.

1. Lead Source Existing Customers: We maintain a loyal customer base built over decades of trust and
quality service. Hence, we gather leads from existing customer referrals.

2. Product Portfolio Expansion: We continually add products related to flexible packaging to cater to
diverse customer needs. By identifying and introducing materials beyond present portfolio of plastic
based products that are required in packaging, we ensure the continued supply of all materials for
flexible packaging under one roof.

3. Networking and Exhibitions: Our participation in industry exhibitions at Kolkata, Nepal, and
Guwahati and so on helps us expand our network and generate leads. It has allowed us to showcase
our offerings and connect with potential and new clients. Some of the exhibitions in which we
participated in FY 2022-23 are:

COMPETITION

Competition within the plastic-based trading and dealership business is fierce and dynamic. Due to
this industry’s unorganized and fragmented nature with many small and medium-sized companies,
there is no authentic data available to our Company on total industry size and markets share of our
Company vis-a-vis the competitors. In the trading of plastic goods, the industry is largely unorganized
with minimal entry barriers, leading to a lot of players in the market. This saturation, coupled with
price-conscious consumers, intensifies the competition as businesses constantly strive to offer the
lowest prices to attract and retain customers. Meanwhile, in the dealership segment, the landscape is
crowded with numerous distributors representing the same brands, as well as competing with
products from major players like Reliance Polymers and Jindal Polyfilms and so on. As a result, success
in both these domains requires not only competitive pricing but also effective marketing, customer
service, and differentiation strategies to stand out in this bustling marketplace.
COLLABORATION

There is no collaboration as on the date of filling of this Red Herring Prospectus.

A. STATUTORY AND COMMERCIAL LAWS

The Companies Act, 2013 & Companies Act, 1956


The Companies Act, 2013, has replaced the Companies Act, 1956 in a phased manner. The Companies
Act, 2013 received the assent of President of India on 29th August 2013. At present, almost all the
provisions of this law have been made effective except few to which extend the Companies Act, 1956
is still applicable. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has also issued rules complementary to the
Companies Act, 2013 establishing the procedure to be followed by companies in order to comply with
the substantive provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. The Companies Act primarily regulates the
formation, financing, functioning and winding up of companies. The Companies Act, 2013 prescribes
regulatory mechanism regarding all relevant aspects including organizational, financial and managerial
aspects of companies.

Indian Contract Act, 1872


The Indian Contract Act, 1872 (“Contract Act”) codifies the way in which a contract in entered,
executed and implemented and implications of breach of a contract. The Contract Act consists of
limiting factors subject to which contract may be entered into, executed and breach enforced, as
amended from time to time. It determines the circumstances in which promise made by the parties
to a contract shall be legally binding on them. Each contract creates some right and duties upon the
contracting parties. The Contract Act deals with the enforcement of these rights and duties upon the
parties. The Contract Act also lays down provisions of indemnity, guarantee, bailment and agency.
Provisions relating to sale of goods and partnership which were originally in the Act are now subject
matter of separate enactments viz., the Sale of Goods Act, 1930 and the Indian Partnership Act 1932.
The objective of the Contract Act is to ensure that the rights and obligations arising out of a contract
are honoured and that legal remedies are made available to those who are affected.

The Sale of Goods Act, 1930


The law relating to the sale of goods is codified in the Sale of Goods Act, 1930 (“SG Act”). It defines
sale and agreement to sell as a contract whereby the seller transfers or agrees to transfer the property
in goods to the buyer for a price and provides that there may be a contract of sale between part owner
and another and that the contract of sale may be absolute or conditional. According to the provisions
of the SG Act, a contract of sale is made by an offer to buy or sell the goods for a price and the
acceptance of such offer. The SG Act further provides that the contract may provide for the immediate
delivery of the goods or immediate payment of the price or both or for the delivery or payment by
instalments or that the delivery or payment or both shall be postponed. Provisions are made in the SG
Act for existing or future goods, perishable goods, ascertainment of price, conditions and warranties,
effects of the contract, delivery to courier, duties of seller and buyer, buyer’s right of examining the
goods, liability of buyer for neglecting or refusing the delivery of goods, rights of unpaid seller, suits
for breach of the contract, sale, etc.

Competition Act, 2002
The Competition Act, 2002 (“Competition Act”) prohibits anti-competitive agreements, abuse of
dominant positions by enterprises and regulates “combinations” in India. The Competition Act also
established the Competition Commission of India (“CCI”) as the authority under the Competition Act.
The provisions of the Competition Act relating to combinations were notified recently on 4th March,
2011 and came into effect on 1st June, 2011. Combinations which are likely to cause an appreciable
adverse effect on competition in a relevant market in India are void under the Competition Act. A
combination is defined under Section 5 of the Competition Act as an acquisition, merger or
amalgamation of enterprise(s) that meets certain asset or turnover thresholds. There are also
different thresholds for those categorized as individuals and group. The CCI may enquire into all
combinations, even if taking place outside India, or between parties outside India, if such combination
is likely to have an appreciable adverse effect on competition in India. Effective from 1st June, 2011,
all combinations have to be notified to the CCI within thirty (30) days of the execution of any
agreement or other document for any acquisition of assets, shares, voting rights or control of an
enterprise under Section 5(a) and Section 5(b) of the Competition Act (including any binding document
conveying an agreement or decision to acquire control, shares, voting rights or assets of an
enterprise); or the board of directors of a company (or an equivalent authority in case of other entities)
approving a proposal for a merger or amalgamation under Section 5(c) of the Competition Act. The
obligation to notify a combination to the CCI falls upon the acquirer in case of an acquisition, and on
all parties to the combination jointly in case of a merger or amalgamation.

Consumer Protection Act, 2019


The Consumer Protection Act, 2019 (“Consumer Act”), has repealed Consumer Protection Act, 1986

C. TAX LAWS

The Income Tax Act, 1961


The Income Tax Act, 1961 (“Tax Act”) deals with taxation of individuals, corporate, partnership firms
and others. As per the provisions of the Tax Act, the rates at which they are required to pay tax is
calculated on the income declared by them or assessed by the authorities, after availing the
deductions and concessions accorded under the Act. The maintenance of books of accounts and

taken out of India to a place outside India. Any Company desirous of importing or exporting any goods
is first required to get it registered and obtain an IEC (Importer Exporter Code).

Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017


The Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (“GST”) is one of the most significant tax reforms introduced in
the history of the Indian fiscal evolution. The central and state governments will levy GST
simultaneously, on a common taxable value, on the supply of goods and services. However, in the case
of imports and inter- state supplies, an Integrated Goods and Service Tax (“IGST”) shall be levied by
the central government, proceeds of which will be shared by the central and the recipient state
government. IGST is an Indian innovation which would help tax move along with goods/services,
across states and therefore reduce refund situations at state borders. GST is expected to bring a
significant shift from origin-based taxation to a destination-based tax structure. This is likely to impact
not only the operating business models but also the revenues of the centre/states. It has the potential
to impact cash flow, pricing, working capital, supply chain and IT systems and hence provides an
opportunity to transform your business. GST allow equal opportunity to the centre and the state to
tax all supplies of goods and services. The single GST replaced several former taxes and levies which
includes central excise duty, services tax, additional customs duty, surcharges, state-level value added
tax and octroi.

Professional Tax
The professional tax slabs in India are applicable to those citizens of India who are either involved in
any profession or trade. The State Government of each State is empowered with the responsibility of
structuring as well as formulating the respective professional tax criteria and is also required to collect
funds through professional tax. The professional taxes are charged on the incomes of individuals,
profits of business or gains in vocations.

Page 195 of 472


D. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAWS

The Trade Marks Act, 1999


The Trade Marks Act, 1999 (“TM Act”) provides for the process for making an application and
obtaining registration of trademarks in India. The purpose of the TM Act is to grant exclusive rights to
marks such as a brand, label, heading and to obtain relief in case of infringement for commercial
purposes as a trade description. The TM Act prohibits registration of deceptively similar trademarks
and provides for penalties for infringement, falsifying and falsely applying trademarks.

The Copyright Act, 1957


The Copyright Act, 1957 (“Copyright Act”) governs the copyright protection in India. Under the
Copyright Act, copyright may subsist in original literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works,
cinematograph films, and sound recordings. While copyright registration is not a pre-requisite for
acquiring or enforcing a copyright, registration creates a presumption favouring ownership of the
copyright by the registered owner. Copyright registration may expedite infringement proceedings and
reduce delay caused due to evidentiary considerations. Once registered, the copyright protection of a
work lasts for sixty (60) years. The remedies available in the event of infringement of a copyright under
the Copyright Act include civil proceedings for damages, account of profits, injunction and the delivery
of the infringing copies to the copyright owner.

of a fire brigade, for the licensing of warehouses and for certain other matters. Under the provisions
of the Fire Act, the owner or the occupier of a high risk building or part thereof shall provide fire

KEY FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT OUR RESULTS OF OPERATION

Our results of operations have been, and will be, affected by many factors, some of which are beyond
our control. Our results of operations and financial conditions are affected by numerous factors
including the following:

A. Ability to expand the customer base and develop new products and generate new sales.

Customer relationships are the core of our business. Our ability to grow our customer base and
drive market adoption of our products is affected by the pace at which the demand of our
products grows. We expect that our revenue growth will be primarily driven by the pace of
adoption of our offerings. This will drive our ability to acquire new customers and increase sales
to existing customers, which in turn, will affect our future financial performance.

We have grown our operations by introducing quality products to meet potential requirements
of our customers and create market for our products. To service and grow our relationships with
our existing customers and to win new customers, we are required to provide them with products
that address their quality and other requirements, to anticipate and understand trends in their
relevant markets and to continually address their needs as those change and evolve.

Our future growth shall depend on our ability to identify emerging market trends, offer new

Page 336 of 472


products to customers, inculcate strong culture of innovation, have trained workforce and latest
research and development facilities to enable us to expand the range of our offerings to
customers and improve the delivery of our products along with growing our portfolio of various
products to increasingly represent our revenue from operations, widened the customer base that
we cater to, and typically have a higher margin profile.

B. Pricing pressure from customers may affect our gross margins.

Our ability to remain competitive and profitable depend on our ability to source and maintain a
stable and sufficient supply of raw materials at cost effective prices. Historically, prices of basic
raw material costs have increased such as Gas and petroleum products which have a significant
effect on the cost of our finished goods and consequently our gross margins. We depend on
external suppliers for our materials on a purchase order basis and place such orders with them in
advance on the basis of our anticipated requirements. As a result, the success of our business is
significantly dependent on maintaining good relationships with our suppliers. For further
information on procurement of our raw materials, see “Our Business” on page 167.

C. Reliance on Customer Relationships

The identity and correspondingly revenues from any customer or our top five customers may vary
between financial reporting years depending on the nature and term of ongoing contracts with
such customers. For the period ended September 30, 2023, and for the financial year ended on
March 31, 2023, March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, our top five customers across our business
accounted for Rs. 1602.55 lakhs, Rs 4511.48 lakhs, Rs 4134.88 lakhs, Rs 2547.33 lakhs and 29.15%,
28.72% ,24.18% and 24.92% of our revenue from operations, respectively, while our largest
customer accounted for Rs 1484.42 lakhs, Rs 1087.53 lakhs, and Rs 630.82 lakhs, respectively, of
our total revenue from operations in such periods. Thus, our Company is reliant on key customers
for our business and therefore any adverse developments in our relationships with our key
customers or a significant reduction in business from any such key customer may adversely
impact our results of operations, prospects and financial condition.

D. Sales and Marketing

We have deployed a team of efficient and dedicated marketing professionals for the marketing
and promotion of our products. Our marketing team constantly monitors and scours the trends
in the market. Regular interaction is required to maintain the client base and to gain insight into
the specification needs of the diverse clientele. We constantly seek to grow our product reach
to underpenetrated geographies, increase the penetration of our products in markets in which
we are currently present and widen the portfolio of our products available in those markets by
growing our network. Our success is dependent on our ability to enter and expand our network
in new markets which is further dependent on our familiarity with the economic condition,
customer base and commercial operations in new regions. With limited presence, our ability to
gain market share is also dependent on our ability to compete with companies that may have an
existing strong presence.

However, we may not be successful in expanding our network or increasing our market presence.
Further, we may also face disruptions in selling our products for various reasons such as
transportation bottlenecks, raw material inaccessibility, competition activities, labor issues,
natural disasters, etc. which may result in disruptions to our business.

E. Changes in laws and regulations relating to the industry in which we operate

The Packaging industry in which we operate is subject to constant change. Packaging is among

Page 337 of 472


the high growth industries in India and developing @ 22-25% per annum. A high degree of
potential exists for almost all user segments which are expanding appreciably -processed foods,
hard & soft drinks, fruit and marine products. Due to the nature of our business ,we expect to
be or continue to be subject to extensive and increasingly stringent environmental ,health and
safety laws and regulations and various labour related laws and regulations which governs the
discharge ,emission, storage ,handling and disposal of variety of substances that may be used in
or result from the operations of our business.

F. Increasing competition in the industry

The industry in which we operate is highly competitive. Factors affecting our competitive success
include, amongst other things, price, demand for our products, availability of raw materials and
reliability. Our competitors vary in size, and may have greater financial, production, marketing,
personal and other resources than us and certain of our competitors may have longer history of
established businesses and reputation in the Indian packaging industry as compared to us.
Competitive conditions in some of our segments have caused us to incur net selling prices and
reduced gross margin s and net earnings. This condition may continue indefinitely. Our failure to
compete effectively, including any delay in responding to any changes in the industry and market,
may affect competitiveness of our products, which may result in a decline in our revenues and
profitability.

G. Changes in fiscal, economic, or political conditions in India

We are incorporated in India and we conduct our corporate affairs and our business in India.
Consequently, our business operations, financial performance and the market price of our Equity
Shares are affected by interest rates, government policies, taxation, social and ethnic instability,
and other political and economic developments affecting India.

Any slowdown or perceived slowdown in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian
economy or certain regions in India, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition along with the price of the Equity Shares.

H. Default or delay in payment by a significant portion of our customers, may have an adverse
effect on cash flows, result of operations and financial conditions.

We may encounter problems in executing the orders in relation to our products on timely basis
Moreover ,factors beyond our control or the control of our customers may postpone the delivery
of such products or cause it cancellation .Due to the possibility of cancellation or changes in scope
and schedule of delivery of such products resulting from our customers discretion or problems
we encounter in the delivery of such products or reasons outside our control ,we cannot predict
with certainty when, if or to what extent we may be able to deliver the orders placed .
Additionally, delays in the delivery of such products can lead to customers delaying or refusing to
pay the amount, in part or in full, that we expect to be paid in respect of such products. In
addition, even where a delivery proceeds as scheduled, it is possible that the customers may
default or otherwise fail to pay amounts owned.

capable of operating in the manner intended by management and initial estimates of
decommissioning, restoring and similar liabilities. Subsequent costs related to an item of
property, plant & equipment are recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it

cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted
for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs & maintenance are
recognized in the statement of profit & loss during the operated period when they are

Page 342 of 472


viii. Borrowing Cost

Borrowing costs are interest, commitment charges and other costs incurred by an enterprise
in connection with Short Term/ Long-Term borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly
attributable to acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as a part of the
cost of the assets, up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. All other borrowing
costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they are
incurred.

ix. Earnings Per Share

The earnings in ascertaining the Company's EPS comprises the net profit after tax
attributable to equity shareholders and includes the post-tax effect of any extraordinary
items. The number of shares used in computing basic EPS is the weighted average number
of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing
the profit/(loss) after tax attributable to Equity Shareholders (including the post-tax effect
of extra ordinary items, if any) as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to
expense or income relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average
number of equity shares which could have been issued on conversion of all dilutive potential
equity shares. Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to
equity shares would decrease the net profit per share from continuing ordinary operations.
Potential dilutive equity shares are deemed to be converted as at the beginning of the
period, unless they have been issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are
determined independently for each period.

x. Taxation

Tax expenses for the year comprising current tax & deferred tax are considered in

liability computed in accordance with relevant tax laws applicable to the Company. Provision
is made for deferred tax for all timing difference arising between taxable incomes &
accounting income at currently enacted or substantively enacted tax rates, as the case may
be. Deferred tax assets (other than in situation of unabsorbed depreciation and carry
forward losses) are recognized only if there is reasonable certainty that they will be realized
and are reviewed for the appropriateness of their respective carrying values at each Balance
Sheet date. Deferred tax assets, in situation of unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward
losses under tax laws are recognized only to the extent that where is virtual certainty
supported by convincing evidence that sufficient future taxable income will be available
against which such deferred tax assets can be recognized. Deferred Tax Assets and Deferred
Tax Liability are been offset wherever the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off
current tax assets against current tax liability and where the Deferred Tax Asset and Deferred
Tax Liability relate to Income taxes is levied by the same taxation authority.

xi. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

(i) Provisions

A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past
event, if it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of
obligation.

Page 343 of 472


(ii) Contingent Liability

Contingent Liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past
events, the existence of which will be confirmed only on the occurrence or non-
occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the

PHASED IMPLEMENTATION OF UPI FOR BIDS BY RETAIL INDIVIDUAL BIDDERS AS PER THE UPI
CIRCULAR

SEBI has issued the SEBI UPI circulars in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of, among
others, equity shares. Pursuant to the SEBI UPI Circulars, the UPI mechanism has been introduced in
a phased manner as a payment mechanism (in addition to mechanism of blocking funds in the account
maintained with SCSBs under the ASBA) for Bids by UPI Bidders through designated intermediaries
with the objective to reduce the time duration from public issue closure to listing from six Working
Days to up to three Working Days. Considering the time required for making necessary changes to the
systems and to ensure complete and smooth transition to the UPI payment Mechanism, the SEBI UPI
Circular have introduced the UPI Mechanism in three phases in the following manner:

• Phase I: This phase was applicable from January 1, 2019 until March 31, 2019 or floating of five
main board public issues, whichever was later. Subsequently, the timeline for implementation of
Phase I was extended till June 30, 2019. Under this phase, a Retail Individual Bidder had the option
to submit the ASBA Form with any of the designated intermediaries and use his / her UPI ID for the
purpose of blocking of funds. The time duration from public issue closure to listing continue to be
six Working Days.

• Phase II: This phase has become applicable from July 1, 2019 and was to initially continue for a
period of three months or floating of five main board public issues, whichever is later. SEBI, vide its
circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DCR2/CIR/P/2019/133 dated November 8, 2019 has decided to extend
the timeline for implementation of UPI Phase II until March 31, 2020. Subsequently, SEBI, vide its
circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2020/50 dated March 30, 2020 extended the timeline for
implementation of UPI Phase II till further notice. Under this phase, submission of the ASBA Form
by UPI Bidders through Designated Intermediaries (other than SCSBs) to SCSBs for blocking of funds
has been discontinued and replaced by the UPI Mechanism. However, the time duration from
public issue closure to listing continues to be six Working Days during this phase.

• Phase III: This phase has become applicable on a voluntary basis for all issues opening on or after
September 1, 2023 and on a mandatory basis for all issues opening on or after December 1, 2023,
vide SEBI circular bearing number SEBI/HO/CFD/TPD1/CIR/P/2023/140 dated August 9, 2023 ("T+3
Notification”). In this phase, the time duration from public issue closure to listing has been reduced
to three Working Days. The Issue shall be undertaken pursuant to the processes and procedures

Page 405 of 472


as notified in the T+3 Notification as applicable, subject to any circulars, clarification or notification
issued by the SEBI from time to time, including any circular, clarification or notification which may
be issued by SEBI.

Pursuant to the SEBI UPI Circular, SEBI has set out specific requirements for redressal of investor
grievances for applications that have been made through the UPI Mechanism. The requirements of
the SEBI UPI Circular include, appointment of a nodal officer by the SCSB and submission of their
details to SEBI, the requirement for SCSBs to send SMS alerts for the blocking and unblocking of UPI
mandates, the requirement for the Registrar to submit details of cancelled, withdrawn or deleted
applications, and the requirement for the bank accounts of unsuccessful Bidders to be unblocked not
later than one day from the date on which the Basis of Allotment is finalised. Failure to unblock the
accounts within the timeline would result in the SCSBs being penalised under the relevant securities
law. Additionally, if there is any delay in the redressal of investors’ complaints in this regard, the
relevant SCSB as well as the post – Issue BRLM will be required to compensate the concerned investor.

The Issue will be made under UPI Phase II of the SEBI UPI Circulars, unless UPI Phase III of the SEBI UPI
Circulars becomes effective and applicable on or prior to the Bid/ Issue Opening Date. If the Issue is
made under UPI Phase III of the SEBI UPI Circulars, the same will be advertised in all editions of
Financial Express, English national daily newspaper and all editions of Jansatta, Hindi national daily

circulation, on or prior to the Bid/ Issue Opening Date and such advertisement shall also be made
available to the Stock Exchanges for the purpose of uploading on their websites.

All SCSBs issuing the facility of making applications in public issues shall also provide the facility to
make application using UPI. Our Company will be required to appoint one of the SCSBs as a Sponsor
Bank to act as a conduit between the Stock Exchanges and NPCI in order to facilitate collection of
requests and/ or payment instructions of the UPI Bidders using the UPI Mechanism.

Illustration of the Book Building and Price Discovery Process

Bidders should note that this example is solely for illustrative purposes and is not specific to the Issue.

Bidders can bid at any price within the Price Band. For instance, assume a Price Band of Rs. 20/- to Rs.
24/- per share, Issue size of 3,000 Equity Shares and receipt of five Bid from Bidders, details of which
are shown in the table below. The illustrative book given below shows the demand for the Equity
Shares of the Issuer at various prices and is collated from Bids received from various investors.

Applied Quantity Bid Amount (Rs.) Cumulative Quantity Subscription


500 24 500 16.67%
1,000 23 1,500 50.00%
1,500 22 3,000 100.00%
2,000 21 5,000 166.67%
2,500 20 7,500 250.00%

Price discovery is a function of demand at various prices. The highest price at which the Issuer is able
to Issue the desired number of Equity Shares is the price at which the book cuts off, i.e., Rs. 22.00 in
the above example. The Issuer in consultation with the BRLM, may finalize the Issue Price at or below
such Cut-Off Price, i.e., at or below Rs. 22.00. All Bids at or above this Issue Price and cut-off Bids are
valid Bids and are considered for allocation in the respective categories.
