purport to contain a summary of all the disclosures in this Red Herring Prospectus or all details relevant to prospective
investors. This summary should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the more detailed information
appearing elsewhere in this Red Herring Prospectus, including “Risk Factors”, “The Offer”, “Capital Structure”, “Objects

Summary of the primary business of our Company

We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of users), with 963,345 truck operators in the
country transacting on our platform in Fiscal 2024, which comprises 27.52% of India’s truck operators (Source: RedSeer
Report). Using our platform, our customers (primarily comprising truck operators) digitally manage payments for tolling and
fueling, monitor drivers and fleets using telematics (i.e., vehicle tracking and fuel monitoring solutions), find loads on our
marketplace and get access to financing for the purchase of used vehicles.

Summary of the industry in which our Company operates

India's rapid economic growth sets the stage for an expanding trucking sector. The Indian trucking sector is a US$ 18-25
billion revenue pool as of Fiscal 2024 and is expected to grow to US$ 35billion by Fiscal 2028. Trucking is one of the fastest-
growing sectors in logistics in India. High fragmentation in this industry is a result of multiple operationally complex
processes required to run the business efficiently. Given the complexity of trucking operations, an operator’s oversight can
significantly impact profitability. Consequently, managing ownership beyond a few trucks becomes increasingly
cumbersome. The trucking industry offers vast revenue potential for companies that solve challenges and inefficiencies and
enhance value for truck operators. (Source: Redseer Report)

Our Primary Sources of Revenue

Our primary sources of revenue are generated through our payments (tolling and fueling), telematics, loads marketplace and
vehicle financing offerings which include: (a) commission margins from FASTag Bank Partners on the toll transaction
flowthrough; (b) commission margin from OMCs in fueling transaction flowthrough; (c) subscription fees charged to truck
operators; (d) subscription fees charged to shippers; and (e) interest income, loan service fees and other fees charged to
borrowers in the process of loan disbursal and collections.

Set out below is a breakdown of our revenue from continuing operations for the periods/years indicated.

Risk factors

The following is a summary of the top ten risk factors in relation to our Company:

1. Some of our Investors have transferred 266,644 Equity Shares to Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji, one of our Promoters
in the month of October 2024 as a gift/₹ 1 per Equity Share. These transfers did not involve any quid pro quo
arrangements and were not contingent on the Company achieving certain business / financial milestone or listing of
Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges. There was no agreement subsisting prior to the DRHP to effect these
transfers and accordingly were not disclosed in the DRHP. The said transfers will result in a gain of ₹[●] million at
the upper end of the price band to Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji.
2. Our Company and our Subsidiary, TZF Logistics Solutions Private Limited have incurred losses and witnessed
negative operating cash flows in the past. Further, our Subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited, has
witnessed negative operating cash flows in the past three financial years.
3. We depend on our business partners in our payments and vehicle financing offerings. Our partners in our payments
offering contribute to a significant portion of our revenues (41.04% and 42.50% of total revenue from continuing
operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively) and one of our FASTag Partner
Banks contributed to 29.62% and 33.51% of total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. The loss of any such partners may adversely affect our business, results
of operations and financial condition.
4. Our revenues are significantly dependent on our payments and telematics offerings, which contributed 92.79% and
94.53% to our total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024,
respectively. Any negative impact on these offerings could materially affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
5. We depend on certain key suppliers to procure a significant portion of our vehicle tracking solutions. We do not
enter into long-term agreements with these suppliers and any denial of supplies or loss of the relationship with these
suppliers or any supply chain disruption could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
6. We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of users) in Fiscal 2024, which
comprises 27.52% of India’s truck operators (Source: Redseer Report). An inability to attract new truck operators or
retain our existing truck operators could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
7. We derive a significant portion of our revenues through commission income (41.09% and 42.86% of total revenue
from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively) and subscription
fees (38.37% and 39.70% of total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and
Fiscal 2024, respectively). Any fluctuation or negative trend in our commission income and/or subscription fees
could materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
8. We have in the past failed to file certain forms with RBI for certain allotments made by our Company, within the
prescribed timelines and have compounded such delays under FEMA, 1999 and the rules made thereunder and paid
the compounding fee. We have also paid late submission fees for delays in filing of forms with RBI in respect of
certain allotments made by our Company and direct investments made by our Company in our Subsidiaries.

23
9. We intend to utilize a part of the Net Proceeds towards investment in Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited, our
NBFC subsidiary, which does not have an established operating history, for financing the augmentation of its capital
base to meet its future capital requirements.
10. We avail certain services of third-party service providers for our platform to implement our sales and service
strategy, and any disruption of or interference with our use of such service could adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

consider material to their assessment of our financial condition.” on page 64. The degree to which the financial information

rounding off. All figures in decimals have been rounded off to the second decimal place and all percentage figures have been
rounded off to two decimal places. However, where any figures that may have been sourced from third-party industry sources
are rounded off to other than two decimal points in their respective sources, such figures appear in this Red Herring
Prospectus as rounded-off to such number of decimal points as provided in such respective sources.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-GAAP financial measures relating to our financial performance, namely Net Worth, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin
%, Adjusted EBITDA, Contribution Margin and Contribution Margin %, and certain other industry metrics and financial
parameters have been included in this Red Herring Prospectus and are a supplemental measure of our performance and
liquidity that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP. Further, these Non-GAAP
measures are not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP and should not
be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, profit/ (loss) for the period / year or any other measure
of financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by
operating, investing or financing activities derived in accordance with Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP. These Non-GAAP
financial measures and other information relating to financial performance may not be computed on the basis of any standard
methodology that is applicable across the industry and therefore may not be comparable to financial measures of similar
nomenclature that may be computed and presented by other companies and are not measures of operating performance or
liquidity defined by Ind AS. Such supplemental financial and operational information should not be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for an analysis of our Restated Consolidated Financial Information disclosed elsewhere in this Red Herring
Prospectus. For further details, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations”, “Other Financial Information” and “Risk Factors- We have in this Red Herring Prospectus included certain
non-GAAP financial measures and certain other industry measures related to our operations and financial performance that
may vary from any standard methodology that is applicable across the industry we operate.” on pages 354, 350 and 56,
respectively.

Currency and Units of Presentation

• “USD” or “US$” or “$” are to United States Dollar, the official currency of the United States of America.

Our Company has presented certain numerical information in this Red Herring Prospectus in “million” units or in whole
numbers where the numbers have been too small to represent in millions. One million represents 1,000,000, one billion
represents 1,000,000,000 and one trillion represents 1,000,000,000,000. One lakh represents 100,000 and one crore represents
10,000,000. However, where any figures that may have been sourced from third-party industry sources are expressed in
denominations other than millions, such figures appear in this Red Herring Prospectus in such denominations as provided in
the respective sources.

Industry publications generally state that the information contained in such publications has been obtained from publicly
available documents from various sources believed to be reliable but accuracy, completeness and underlying assumptions of
such third-party sources are not guaranteed. Although the industry and market data used in this Red Herring Prospectus is
reliable, the data used in these sources may have been re-classified by us for the purposes of presentation however, no
material data in connection with the Offer has been omitted. Data from these sources may also not be comparable.

Industry sources and publications may base their information on estimates and assumptions that may prove to be incorrect.
The extent to which the industry and market data presented in this Red Herring Prospectus is meaningful depends upon the
reader’s familiarity with, and understanding of, the methodologies used in compiling such information. There are no standard
data gathering methodologies in the industry in which our Company conducts business and methodologies and assumptions
may vary widely among different market and industry sources. Such information involves risks, uncertainties and numerous
assumptions and is subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors – We have in this
Red Herring Prospectus included certain non-GAAP financial measures and certain other industry measures related to our
operations and financial performance that may vary from any standard methodology that is applicable across the industry we
operate.” on page 56.

The RedSeer Report is subject to the following disclaimer:

The market information in this Report is arrived at by employing an integrated research methodology which includes
secondary and primary research. Our primary research work includes surveys and indepth interviews of consumers,
customers and other relevant ecosystem participants, and consultations with market participants and experts. In addition to
the primary research, quantitative market information is also derived based on data from trusted portals and industry
publications. Therefore, the information is subject to limitations of, among others, secondary statistics and primary research,
and accordingly the findings do not purport to be exhaustive. RedSeer’s estimates and assumptions are based on varying
levels of quantitative and qualitative analyses from various sources, including industry journals, company reports and
information in the public domain. RedSeer’s research has been conducted with a broad perspective on the industry and will
not necessarily reflect the performance of individual companies in the industry.

While RedSeer has taken due care and caution in preparing this Report based on information obtained from sources
generally believed to be reliable, its accuracy, completeness and underlying assumptions are subject to limitations like
interpretations of market scenarios across sources, data availability amongst others.

Forecasts, estimates and other forward-looking statements contained in this Report are inherently uncertain and could
fluctuate due to changes in macro-economic factors underlying their assumptions, or events or combinations of events that
cannot be reasonably foreseen. The forecasts, estimates and other forward-looking statements in this Report depend on
factors like the recovery of the economy, evolution of consumer sentiments, the competitive environment, amongst others,
leading to significant uncertainty, all of which cannot be reasonably and accurately accounted for. Actual results and future
events could differ materially from such forecasts, estimates, or such statements.

This Report is not a recommendation to invest/disinvest in any entity covered in the Report and this Report should not be
construed as investment advice within the meaning of any law or regulation.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing in this Report should be construed as RedSeer providing or intending
to provide any services in jurisdictions where it does not have the necessary permission and/or registration to carry out its
business activities in this regard. No part of this Report shall be reproduced or extracted or published in any form without
RedSeer’s prior written approval.

“expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “likely to”, “seek to”, “shall”, “objective”, “plan”, “project”, “propose”, “will”, “will
continue”, “will pursue” or other words or phrases of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe our strategies,
objectives, plans or goals are also forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements whether made by us or any
third parties in this Red Herring Prospectus are based on our current plans, estimates, presumptions and expectations and are
subject to risks, uncertainties, expectations and assumptions about us that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those contemplated by the relevant forward-looking statement, including but not limited to, regulatory changes pertaining to
the industry in which we operate 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 and globally, which have an impact on our business activities or investments, the monetary and fiscal policies of India,
inflation, deflation, unanticipated turbulence in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices or other rates or prices, the
performance of the financial markets in India and globally, changes in domestic and international laws, regulations and taxes
and changes in competition in our industry.

Certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are not limited
to, the following:

• Some of our Investors have transferred 266,644 Equity Shares to Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji, one of our Promoters
in the month of October 2024 as a gift/₹ 1 per Equity Share. These transfers did not involve any quid pro quo
arrangements and were not contingent on the Company achieving certain business / financial milestone or listing of
Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges. There was no agreement subsisting prior to the DRHP to effect these
transfers and accordingly were not disclosed in the DRHP. The said transfers will result in a gain of ₹[●] million at
the upper end of the price band to Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji.

• Our Company and our Subsidiary, TZF Logistics Solutions Private Limited have incurred losses and witnessed
negative operating cash flows in the past. Further, our Subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited, has
witnessed negative operating cash flows in the past three financial years.

• We depend on our business partners in our payments and vehicle financing offerings. Our partners in our payments
offering contribute to a significant portion of our revenues (41.04% and 42.50% of total revenue from continuing
operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively) and one of our FASTag Partner
Banks contributed to 29.62% and 33.51% of total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. The loss of any such partners may adversely affect our business, results
of operations and financial condition.

• Our revenues are significantly dependent on our payments and telematics offerings, which contributed 92.79% and
94.53% to our total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024,
respectively. Any negative impact on these offerings could materially affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.

• We depend on certain key suppliers to procure a significant portion of our vehicle tracking solutions. We do not
enter into long-term agreements with these suppliers and any denial of supplies or loss of the relationship with these
suppliers or any supply chain disruption could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

• We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of users) in Fiscal 2024, which
comprises 27.52% of India’s truck operators (Source: Redseer Report). An inability to attract new truck operators or
retain our existing truck operators could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.

• We derive a significant portion of our revenues through commission income (41.09% and 42.86% of total revenue
from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively) and subscription
fees (38.37% and 39.70% of total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and
Fiscal 2024, respectively). Any fluctuation or negative trend in our commission income and/or subscription fees
could materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Certain information in “Industry Overview”, “Our Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations on pages 145, 163 and 354, respectively, of this Red Herring Prospectus have been

Unless specified in the relevant risk factors below, we are not in a position to quantify the financial implication of any of the

Notes:

(2)
Represents financial information derived from the standalone audited financial statements of the respective entities for the periods/years
indicated.

With a view to grow our business, we have made significant investments towards sales and marketing and building
our distribution channels to improve our reach, the market visibility of our brand, drive effective engagement with
existing customers and acquire new customers. Our Company’s sales and marketing expenses in the three months
ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022 were ₹460.13 million, ₹1,577.77 million, ₹1,777.10 million
and ₹1,028.71 million, respectively, representing 50.28%, 32.64%, 41.16% and 26.63%, respectively, of our
Company’s total expenses during the same years, on a standalone basis. In addition, we also undertake continuous
product development to innovate and build new service offerings. For more details, see “Objects of the Offer –
Details of the Objects” on page 121. We expect our operating expenses to increase as we continue to invest to grow
our current offerings and develop new offerings, upgrade our technical infrastructure, maintain and expand our
workforce and personnel engaged in development of products and technology, new business initiatives and expand
our on-roll and off-roll sales capabilities. There can be no assurance that any of our initiatives will be successful or

35
result in increased revenue. Any failure to increase our revenues sufficiently to keep pace with our investments and
other expenses could prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability or positive cash flow in the future. In
addition, we intend to further invest into our subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve, and augment its capital base to support
future growth in the vehicle-financing business, which could subject us to additional liabilities. If we fail to achieve
or maintain profitability or if we continue to have negative cash flows in the future, our business, results of
operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

3. We depend on our business partners in our payments and vehicle financing offerings. Our partners in our
payments offering contribute to a significant portion of our revenues (41.04% and 42.50% of total revenue from
continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively) and one of our
FASTag Partner Banks contributed to 29.62% and 33.51% of total revenue from continuing operations in the
three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. The loss of any such partners may adversely
affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business is dependent on revenues generated from our key strategic partners in our payments and vehicle
financing offerings. Our partners in the payments offering include: (i) oil marketing companies through whom we
provide fueling payments solutions (“OMC Partners”); and (ii) issuer bank partners through whom we provide
FASTags (“FASTag Partner Banks”). Further we provide vehicle financing to our customers through our vehicle
financing partners (“Financial Partners”). In particular, we derive a significant portion of our revenues from one of
our FASTag Partner Banks. Set out below are details of the contribution to our revenue from continuing operations,
from each of these partners for the periods/years indicated:

Notes:
(1) Revenue from OMC Partners and FASTag Partner Banks consists of commission income received from such partners.
(2) Revenue from Financial Partners consists of service fees received from such partners.
(3) The names of these business partners are not being disclosed due to non-receipt of consent from these partners. We requested for consent
from these business partners for inclusion of their names in this Red Herring Prospectus through multiple emails between May 22, 2024 and
June 19, 2024.

The operations of our payments and vehicle financing offerings are significantly dependent on our continuing
relationship with certain of these strategic partners and any premature termination or non-renewal of our
arrangements or revisions in the terms of our arrangements by any of these partners may expose us to the risks of
disruption in our operations, loss of revenue and related customer dissatisfaction. Any of these occurrences could
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Further, we enter into agreements with our OMC Partners, FASTag Partner Banks and Financial Partners pursuant to
which these partners have the right to terminate or cancel such agreements with prior written notice. Our OMC
Partners also have the right to terminate their loyalty programs, under which fueling payment solutions are issued to

36
customers, at any time without prior notice, which may require us to withdraw the fueling payment solutions
distributed to customers and we may cease to generate any revenue from such OMC Partners. If we are required to
find alternative issuer bank partners, oil marketing companies or vehicle financing partners, we may incur additional
expenses or may be unsuccessful in finding such alternative partners at all. The process of onboarding a new
business partner involves business planning, negotiations, due diligence, legal compliance and technical integration,
all of which could potentially take several months to over a year. While we have not faced any instances where our
OMC Partners, FASTag Partner Banks or Financial Partners have prematurely terminated their agreements with us
in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that such
instances will not occur in the future.

For further details, see “– Internal Risks – We enter into non-exclusive agreements with our business partners and
certain of these agreements may be terminated by our partners without cause. Any early termination or non-renewal
of such agreements may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.” on page 41.

4. Our revenues are significantly dependent on our payments and telematics offerings, which contributed 92.79%
and 94.53% to our total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal
2024, respectively. Any negative impact on these offerings could materially affect our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

Our platform provides our customers with payments, telematics, loads marketplace and vehicle financing offerings.
We derive a significant portion of our revenues from our payments (which includes our tolling and fueling offerings)
and telematics offerings (which includes vehicle tracking and fuel monitoring solutions). Our payments offering
enable truck operators to make payments for tolls and fuel efficiently and securely through our platform. Telematics
solutions provide truck operators real-time visibility into fleet movements, route optimization and enhanced fuel
management and helps to increase cost savings and improve efficiency. Set out below are details of revenue

Note: Revenue from payments and telematics offerings comprises commission income received from business partners and subscription fees and
service fees received from customers.

Any event which impacts our payments and telematics offerings, including any changes in the program management
fees determined by the government or other regulatory changes, the introduction of new payment methods,
advancements in electronic toll collection technologies, changes in the global trade policies and supplies, changes in
economic conditions and consumer preferences and increased competition, could have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations and financial condition. For further details, see “- Internal Risks - Our business is
subject to various laws and regulations which are constantly evolving. If we are deemed to be not in compliance
with any of these laws and regulations, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially
and adversely affected” on page 41.

Any failure to expand our payments and telematics offerings, which depend on among other things, customer
acceptance of our products and services, increased competition and our ability to broaden the scope of our offerings,
develop new technologies, enhance the functionality of our offerings and respond to the needs of our customers, may
inhibit the growth of our business. Further, if the demand for our payments and telematics offerings does not grow
according to expectations or if we are unable to effectively compete with other market players, our business, results
of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. In addition, for our telematics offerings, we are
dependent on certain key suppliers with whom we do not enter into long-terms agreements. For further details, see “-
Internal Risks - We depend on certain key suppliers to procure a significant portion of our vehicle tracking
solutions. We do not enter into long-term agreements with these suppliers and any denial of supplies or loss of the
relationship with these suppliers or any supply chain disruption could adversely affect our business, results of
operations and financial condition.” on page 37. While we have not faced any instances that have materially
impacted our payments and telematics offerings in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and
2022, there can be no assurance that such instances will not occur in the future.

5. We depend on certain key suppliers to procure a significant portion of our vehicle tracking solutions. We do not
enter into long-term agreements with these suppliers and any denial of supplies or loss of the relationship with
37
these suppliers or any supply chain disruption could adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.

We are dependent on certain key suppliers for purchasing our vehicle tracking solutions. Vehicle tracking solutions
provide our customers with real-time location tracking as well as enable them to track driver behavior, such as over-
speeding, harsh braking and harsh acceleration, theft protection, geo-fence-based alerts, which can alert the truck
operator when a driver deviates from their route and delivery time estimation, all of which can be tracked on the
BlackBuck App. Set forth below are details of our purchases from our top three suppliers for the periods/years

Note: Supplier 1, Suppler 2 and Supplier 3 are the top three suppliers in terms of our purchases of vehicle tracking solutions for each of the
respective periods/years and may not necessarily be the same suppliers. The names of these suppliers are not being disclosed due to non-receipt
of consent from these suppliers.

We procure our supplies from these suppliers on the basis of short-term arrangements, typically through purchase
orders. In addition to the supply of vehicle tracking solutions, these suppliers typically also provide software,
installation services, trainings, support and on-ground servicing to our customers for the first year after purchase. In
the absence of exclusive or long- term contracts, our suppliers may not be obligated to supply their products to us
and/or may choose to sell their products to our competitors. If we were to experience a significant or prolonged
shortage of supplies or we are denied supplies from any of our suppliers and cannot procure those supplies from
other sources, our ability to install and service our vehicle tracking solutions may be impacted, which in turn may
have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we have not faced any
instances of interruptions in the timely delivery of supplies that led to any adverse effect on our business or
operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that
such instances will not occur in the future. Non-availability or inadequate quantity or quality of vehicle tracking
solutions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Further, a majority of our supplies of vehicle tracking solutions were procured from suppliers located in Delhi and
West Bengal in Fiscal 2024, and from suppliers located in Delhi and Haryana in Fiscals 2022 and 2023. Any
significant disruption, including due to social, political or economic factors or natural calamities or civil disruptions,
impacting these regions of India may interrupt our operations and affect our ability to provide quality products and
services to our customers in a timely manner.

In addition, these suppliers may import their supplies from certain geographies outside India. Accordingly, the price
and availability of our vehicle tracking solutions are susceptible to international trade risks and other international
economic conditions. Any supply chain disruption faced by our suppliers may in turn significantly impact their
ability to supply to us and our ability to provide these devices to our customers. Changes in tariffs or other political,
economic and social measures that directly or indirectly impact the availability or price of these devices could have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we implement inventory
management practices and have not faced any disruption in the procurement of our vehicle tracking solutions in the
three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that we will not
encounter any disruption in the supply of vehicle tracking solutions in the future.

6. We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of users) in Fiscal 2024, which
comprises 27.52% of India’s truck operators (Source: Redseer Report). An inability to attract new truck operators
38
or retain our existing truck operators could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.

Our success depends on our ability to retain and increase the scale of our network by maintaining our existing
customer base of truck operators as well as attracting new truck operators to our platform. Our ability to refine our
offerings and increase our cross-selling opportunities are significantly dependent on the number of truck operators
using our platform. Our platform gathers additional data as more truck operators utilize our services which in turn
enables us to enhance our service offerings. For instance, in our loads marketplace offering, this would foster more
efficient load matching. If our service quality diminishes or we are unable to build trust among our truck operators or
our competitors’ services achieve greater market adoption in respect of any of our offerings, our customers may
switch over to our competitors’ platforms and our growth and revenues may be adversely impacted. Our platform
retained 93.51% (in the first year), 76.04% (in the second year) and 66.25% (in the third year) of the annual
transacting truck operators who transacted on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2021. Our platform retained
87.82% (in the first year) and 64.36% (in the second year) of the annual transacting truck operators who transacted
on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2022. Similarly, our platform retained 85.52% of the annual transacting
truck operators in the first year, who transacted on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2023. Our retention rate in
the first year and second year reduced for the Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2023 cohorts compared to the Fiscal 2021
cohorts due to the substantial increase in the number of truck operators onboarded in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2023,
given the Fiscal 2021 cohort was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. While we have been successful in growing
our customer base of transacting truck operators from 482,446 in Fiscal 2022 to 963,345 in Fiscal 2024 (average
monthly transacting truck operators increased from 261,304 in Fiscal 2022 to 597,638 in Fiscal 2024), there can be
no assurance that we will be able to continue increasing our base of transacting truck operators. Set out below are
details of our contribution margin for the periods/years indicated:

Particulars Three months ended June 30, Fiscal


2024 2023 2024 2023 2022
Amount (₹ million)
Contribution margin 917.06 586.15 2,883.48 1,769.19 1,322.33
Note: Contribution margin is defined as Total Income excluding other gains/ losses (net) from continuing operations, minus the direct costs
associated with delivering service activities.

If we are unable to foresee or respond effectively to changes in consumer preferences or compete effectively with
pricing pressures, demand for our offerings may decline, thereby reducing our margins, sales, revenue and market
share and preventing us from acquiring new truck operators and retaining existing truck operators, which in turn may
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

7. We derive a significant portion of our revenues through commission income (41.09% and 42.86% of total revenue
from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively) and
subscription fees (38.37% and 39.70% of total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively). Any fluctuation or negative trend in our commission income and/or
subscription fees could materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our primary sources of revenue are generated through our payments (tolling and fueling), telematics, loads
marketplace and vehicle financing offerings which include: (a) commission margins from FASTag Bank Partners on
the toll transaction flowthrough; (b) commission margin from OMCs in fueling transaction flowthrough; (c)
subscription fees charged to truck operators; (d) subscription fees charged to shippers; and (e) interest income, loan
service fees and other fees charged to borrowers in the process of loan disbursal and collections. We derive a
significant portion of our revenues from our commission income and subscription fees. Set out below is a breakdown
of our revenue from continuing operations for the period/years indicated:

Our revenues including our commission income and subscription fees may be impacted due to various
macroeconomic and microeconomic factors, many of which are beyond our control. Certain of these events include
introduction of alternate payment methods, changes in key government regulations and policies (including any
changes in the program management fees determined by the government), advancements in technology including in
relation to toll collection, changes in customer preference or acceptance of our products and services, increased
competition and changes in the global trade policies and supplies, any of which could have a material adverse effect
on our business, results of operations and financial condition. For example, the National Highways Authority of
India (“NHAI”) reduced the program management fees for FASTag transactions from 1.50% to 1.00% in March
2022 (Source: Redseer Report), which led to an adverse impact on commission revenue in our tolling business.
There can be no assurance that government or regulatory authorities will not reduce fees or implement other changes
in the future that may lead to a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

8. We have in the past failed to file certain forms with RBI for certain allotments made by our Company, within the
prescribed timelines and have compounded such delays under FEMA, 1999 and the rules made thereunder and
paid the compounding fee. We have also paid late submission fees for delays in filing of forms with RBI in respect
of certain allotments made by our Company and direct investments made by our Company in our Subsidiaries.

In relation to allotment of Series B CCPS dated January 13, 2016, Series B1 CCPS dated February 2, 2017, Series C
CCPS dated February 2, 2017 and Equity Shares dated February 2, 2017 there were certain delays in filing of Form
ARF and, in relation to allotment of Equity Shares dated February 2, 2017 and Series C CCPS dated February 2,
2017 there were certain delays in filing of Form FCGPR with the RBI in contravention of paragraph 9(1)(A) and
9(1)(B) of Schedule 1 to Notification No. FEMA 20/2000-RB dated May 3, 2000. Our Company was directed by the
RBI pursuant to its letters dated (i) April 15, 2019 in relation to Equity Share allotment dated February 2, 2017; (ii)
April 4, 2018 for Series B CCPS allotment dated January 13, 2016; (iii) September 27, 2018 for Series B1 CCPS
allotment dated February 2, 2017; and (iv) April 15, 2019 for Series C CCPS allotment dated February 2, 2017 to
apply for compounding. Accordingly, our Company has filed a compounding application dated March 8, 2024 (the
“Compounding Application”) to regularize these delays in filing Form ARF and Form FCGPR. Pursuant to its e-
mails dated April 8, 2024, May 7, 2024 and May 14, 2024, RBI directed our Company to provide certain additional
information in relation to the Compounding Application. Our Company pursuant to its e-mails dated April 10, 2024
and May 15, 2024 provided the required information to RBI. Pursuant to an order dated May 22, 2024, the RBI
compounded the above-mentioned contraventions in terms of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 and
Foreign Exchange (Compounding Proceedings) Rules, 2000 and directed our Company to pay ₹428,500
(“Compounding Order”). Pursuant to the Compounding Order, our Company paid the required amount on May 23,
2024 and a certificate acknowledging the payment was issued by RBI on June 10, 2024. Additionally, our Company
has also in the past, been instructed to pay and has paid late submission fees amounting to ₹0.43 million for delays in
reporting of certain allotments to the RBI. Our Company had allotted Equity Shares by way of bonus issuance to its
shareholders on June 7, 2024. Our Company had failed to file Form FCGPR with RBI within the prescribed
timelines consequent to which RBI approved the submission of the FCGPR subject to payment of late submission
fee for the contravention under paragraph 4.1 of notification number FEMA.395 2019-RB. The Company was
advised to approach RBI seeking confirmation on late submission fee amount. The Company has sought
confirmation on the amount of the late submission fee from RBI and as on date of this Red Herring Prospectus is yet
to receive a confirmation on the amount to be paid.

Further, TZF Logistics Solutions Private Limited, ZZ Logistics Solutions Private Limited, our Subsidiaries and our
Company on behalf of BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited has also in the past, been instructed by the RBI to pay
and has paid late submission fees / penalty amounting to ₹0.01 million for delays in reporting of investment in Form
DI made by our Company in our Subsidiaries. If we are subject to any further penalties or other regulatory actions
under provisions of FEMA, our reputation could be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that such lapses
will not occur in the future, or that we will be able to rectify or mitigate such lapses in a timely manner, or at all.

9. We intend to utilize a part of the Net Proceeds towards investment in Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited, our
NBFC subsidiary, which does not have an established operating history, for financing the augmentation of its
capital base to meet its future capital requirements.

BFPL was incorporated as a private limited company under the Companies Act, 2013 pursuant to a certificate of
incorporation dated January 29, 2019, issued by the RoC. BFPL received its non-deposit-taking NBFC license on
August 1, 2023 and commenced lending operations in October 2023. BFPL does not have an established operating
history as the NBFC by which its past performance may be assessed which may make it difficult for our investors to
assess its future performance and growth prospects. Our Company intends to augment the capital base of BFPL to
support the future growth in the NBFC business and accordingly, our Company intends to utilise a part of the Net
Proceeds amounting to ₹1,400.00 million to make a further investment in BFPL. This investment shall be carried out
in either in the form of debt or equity, which will be determined by our Company at the time of making such
investment. For further details, see “Objects of the Offer” beginning on page 120. There can be no assurance that
BFPL will be able to generate sufficient revenue for its operations to undertake lending operations. Further, we
cannot assure that the future performance of BFPL will be consistent with its historical audited financial summary
included in this Red Herring Prospectus.

10. We avail certain services of third-party service providers for our platform to implement our sales and service
strategy, and any disruption of or interference with our use of such service could adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

We rely on certain third-party providers for various services. Set out below are details of our on-roll and off-roll
employees and other third party agents and channel partners as of the dated indicated:

Particulars As of June 30, As of March 31,


2024 2023 2024 2023 2022
On-roll employees(1) 1,849 1,713 1,783 1,791 1,480
Off-roll employees(2) 3,688 2,628 3,638 2,749 4,299
Third party agents and channel partners(3) 4,174 3,232 3,974 3,100 1,634
Notes:
(1) On-roll employees represent employees that are directly employed by the Company
(2) Off-roll employees represent workers that are not on the Company's direct payroll and are engaged and managed through a third-party
agency on a contractual basis
(3) Third party agents and channel partners include independent contractors that work on a principle-to-principle commission basis to
distribute products or services of the Company

We depend significantly on these employees and other third party agents and channel partners to reach out to new
customers, as well as cross-sell/upsell our products to existing customers. Any disruption in the supply of manpower
faced by these third-party agencies or in supply of services provided by third parties with whom we have engaged
could significantly impact our sales and service strategy. We are also dependent on one technology service provider
that provides us cloud hosting, data processing and storage and another service provider for mapping and navigation.
These service providers may face slowdown or disruption in their operations due to various factors such as
infrastructure changes, human or software errors and website hosting disruptions, over which we do not have any
control. Our platform’s continuing and uninterrupted performance is critical to our success. We have not experienced
any interruptions, delays and outages in service from these third-party service providers in the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022 that led to a material adverse impact on our business or financial
condition. However, there can be no assurance that such instances will not occur in the future which could lead to
significant loss of revenue, increase our costs, and impair our ability to attract new customers, any of which may
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

11. Our business operations are subject to various laws and regulations which are constantly evolving. If we, or any
such business arrangements with counterparties, are deemed to be not in compliance with any of these laws and
regulations, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

Compliance with laws and regulations applicable to our operations, including in relation to tolling, fueling, prepaid
payment instruments, vehicle financing and privacy and data protection may involve significant costs and may
otherwise impose restrictions on our operations. Further, the scope of services under certain of our business
arrangements, including with FASTag Partner Banks and Financial Partners, are subject to modification in
consonance with applicable law governing such arrangements. There can be no assurance that the laws, or the
interpretation or enforcement of such laws, governing us and our operations will not change in the future. For
instance, we generate revenues in the nature of commissions from our FASTag Partner Banks which is dependent on
government determined program management fees. The National Highways Authority of India (“NHAI”) reduced
program management fees for FASTag transactions from 1.50% to 1.00% in March 2022 (Source: Redseer Report),
which led to an adverse impact on commission revenue in our tolling business. There can be no assurance that
government or regulatory authorities will not reduce fees or implement other changes in the future that may lead to a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Further, the Government of India is planning on implementing global navigation satellite system (“GNSS”) based
toll collection to enhance toll collection efficiency in India. GNSS toll collection eliminates the need for physical toll
booths. While the global expression of interest issued by the NHAI on June 7, 2024, contemplates that GNSS toll
collection systems will work in conjunction with FASTags, there is uncertainty on the implementation of the GNSS
toll collection systems, including regarding the payment of programme management (or equivalent) fees.

Further, our business arrangements with FASTag Partner Banks and Financial Partners are regulated business
arrangements under the relevant frameworks issued by the RBI, as applicable to banks (including small finance
banks) and NBFCs in India. For instance, we act as business correspondents for our FASTag Partner Bank and one
of the Financial Partners. In this respect, RBI has issued the BC Guidelines applicable to banks which, among others,
lay down the scope of permitted services to be undertaken by business correspondents, framework for payment of
fees and commissions, and certain consumer protection measures. The BC Guidelines also require that any such
arrangements are in compliance with the Outsourcing of Financial Services (Banks) Guidelines, which state that
banks cannot outsource core decision-making functions, including sanction for loans. Under the BC Guidelines and
Outsourcing of Financial Services (Banks) Guidelines, the banks will be fully responsible for any activities
outsourced to business correspondents. The RBI also regulates outsourcing of activities to third parties ( such as our
Company) by NBFCs. However, outsourcing of core decision-making functions (such as sanction of loans) is
prohibited. RBI has also issued the Digital Lending Guidelines applicable to any digital lending extended by, among
others, all commercial banks and NBFCs. In this respect, for any outsourced digital lending agreements between
41
such regulated entities and lending service providers, RBI has also capped any default loss guarantee cover at five
per cent of the amount of loan portfolio.

In reference to the loads marketplace, the Company’s obligation is to match truck operators (who need loads) with
shippers (who are looking for trucks) across commodities, load weights, truck types and distance ranges. The
Company is not involved in transport transactions other than the matching as described above. Further the same has
been documented in our terms of use which truck operators and shippers agree to before using our loads marketplace
offering.

While we believe our business arrangements with such regulated entities to be compliant with the applicable
regulatory framework, we cannot assure you that the RBI will not take a different view, including during their
inspection of the regulatory entities’ operations or otherwise. In the event RBI identifies any such non-compliance, it
may direct our partners to suspend, terminate or amend their business arrangements with us, to the extent of any
identified non-compliance. Any such suspension, termination or amendment could have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we have not faced any such instances in the three
months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that such instances will not
occur in the future.

Further, our Subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve, is regulated principally by and has reporting obligations to the RBI. It
is subject to the RBI’s regulations relating to NBFCs, including as to exposure and other prudential norms. The RBI
also regulates the credit flow from banks to NBFCs and provides guidelines to commercial banks with respect to
their investment and credit exposure norms for lending to NBFCs. The RBI’s regulation of NBFCs could change in
the future, which in turn may require us to restructure our activities, incur additional cost, restrict access to credit
from banks, or otherwise adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

12. We enter into non-exclusive agreements with our business partners and certain of these agreements may be
terminated by our partners without cause. Any early termination or non-renewal of such agreements may
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We enter into non-exclusive agreements with our OMC Partners, FASTag Partner Banks and Financial Partners for
terms up to 20 years. Also see, “- Internal Risks - We depend on our business partners in our payments and vehicle
financing offerings. Our partners in our payments offering contribute to a significant portion of our revenues
(41.04% and 42.50% of total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and
Fiscal 2024, respectively) and one of our FASTag Partner Banks contributed to 29.62% and 33.51% of total revenue
from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. The loss of any
such partners may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition” on page 35. Certain
of our agreements with these partners may be terminated or cancelled voluntarily by our partners with prior written
notice of 30 days to three months. Certain our partners are also entitled to terminate the agreement at any time on the
occurrence of specified events including: (a) change in control of our Company in accordance with the terms of the
agreement; and (b) breach by our Company of any of the representations, warranties, terms and conditions of the
relevant agreement, among others. In addition, our partners are also entitled to claims of damages and/or indemnity
due to non-performance or breach of any provision of the agreements (such as misrepresentation of facts or
documents pertaining to any product, confidentiality, change in status of any approval required by our Company to
offer the relevant services) by us or our representatives. Further, upon expiry of the stipulated term of our
agreements, our partners may decide to change the terms of our arrangements or not renew our arrangements at all in
the future. The non-exclusive nature of our agreements also entitles our partners to engage with our competitors,
which could be prejudicial to our business, results of operations and financial condition. Apart from such
agreements, we have not entered into any material agreements with our business partners which we believe could be
prejudicial to the interest of investors.

If any of our partners terminated our arrangement prematurely, we may be exposed to the risk of significant
disruption in our operations, loss of revenue and related customer dissatisfaction, which would materially and
adversely impact our business and operations. If we are required to find alternative issuer bank partners, oil
marketing companies or vehicle financing partners, including due to non-renewal of any existing agreements upon
expiry of the stipulated term, we may incur additional expenses and may be required to invest considerable resources
in complying with the requirements of our new partners. We could also face delays in renewal of existing
agreements with our partners, leading to operational uncertainty in the interim, lack of formal, long-term
arrangements, and significant management resources deployed towards negotiations with the partners. For instance,
our previous agreement with one of our OMC Partners expired in Fiscal 2023, and was recently renewed
retrospectively, with effect from such expiry. There can be no assurance that such instances will not occur in the
future and we cannot assure you that renewal of expired agreements will happen at similar or favourable terms as
compared to the current arrangements, or at all. The occurrence of any such event in the future may adversely affect
our business, results of operations and financial condition.

13. Our business requires significant sales and marketing initiatives contributing to an increase in our operating
expenses, which may adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

42
Our sales and marketing initiatives are critical to our business operations and growth. Our sales and marketing
initiatives include digital marketing campaign, development and distribution of marketing collaterals such as
marketing videos, presence of our on-ground sales and marketing workforce across geographies in key transport
hubs and toll plazas, on-boarding of channel partners for developing reach and presence of our product and service
offerings across geographies, and tele-based inbound and outbound communication. Further, we intend to use a part
of the Net Proceeds to invest in sales and marketing. For further information, see “Objects of the Offer – Details of
the Objects” on page 121.

Further, we undertake these sales and marketing initiatives to maintain, protect and enhance our brand, BlackBuck,
in order to expand our existing customer base and increase their engagement with our platform. If we are unable to
maintain or enhance customer awareness in a cost-effective manner, our brand, business, results of operations and
financial condition could be negatively impacted. Further, negative publicity about us, including potential issues
with our technology, data privacy breaches and complaints about our personnel or customer service, could diminish
confidence in, and the use of, our services, which could harm our business, results of operations and financial
condition. Set out below are details of our Company’s sales and marketing expenses on a standalone basis for the

Our sales and marketing and brand building activities may increase in the future which may strain our financial
resources. In addition, there can be no assurance that these initiatives will be cost effective, successful in achieving
the expected results (including of attracting customers and partners and further building our brand) or that our
competitors will not implement more successful marketing activities or otherwise attract our customers and
merchants to their platforms. Any of these occurrences may lead to an adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

14. Certain sections of this Red Herring Prospectus disclose information from the Redseer Report which has been
prepared exclusively for the Offer and commissioned and paid for by us exclusively in connection with the Offer
and any reliance on such information for making an investment decision in the Offer is subject to inherent risks.

We have commissioned from Redseer Strategy Consultants Private Limited its report titled the “Indian Trucking
Market Opportunity Report” (the “Redseer Report”), pursuant to an engagement letter dated February 27, 2024.
The Redseer Report has been commissioned and paid for by us for the purposes of confirming our understanding of
the industry exclusively in connection with the Offer. Certain information in “Industry Overview,” “Our Business”
and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, on pages 145, 163
and 354, respectively, has been derived from the Redseer Report. Further, the Redseer Report includes information
on the challenges faced by the Indian trucking industry and the threats and challenges faced by us in such industry.
For details, see “Industry Overview” on page 145. The Redseer Report uses certain methodologies for market sizing

43
and forecasting and may include numbers relating to our Company that differ from those we record internally. Given
the scope and extent of the Redseer Report, disclosures herein are limited to certain excerpts and the Redseer Report

investment decision solely on this information.

15. Our product development efforts may not be successful or yield the returns or benefits that we expect, and we may
not be able to successfully offer our customers new solutions and maintain our competitiveness.

Our business is characterized by rapid and frequent advancements in technology and changes in market demand can
often render existing technologies and solutions obsolete and could require substantial new product development and
capital expenditures. We believe that our product development initiatives including R&D in technology is critical in
maintaining our competitive position and to address changing consumer trends, industry developments and business
models. We focus on technology development and enhancement (such as initiatives to increase digitization for truck
operators) by understanding current market demands and evolving customer trends. For instance, our mobile
application provides in-app walkthrough videos for easy navigation by our users. Using our insight into problems
faced by truck operators and other demographics, together with our product development capabilities, we have
become India’s largest payment platform for truck operators as of June 30, 2024 (Source: Redseer Report). Our
product development efforts have also enabled us to launch several new offerings such as vehicle finance in Fiscal
2022 and fuel monitoring offering in Fiscal 2024. Product development includes ideation, design, and creation of a
product, followed by testing, refining and launching. It also includes market research, prototyping, and continuous
improvements post-launch. In the vehicle financing offering, our Company intends to innovate through technology-
enabled loan origination system, fraud detection and prevention systems and sales enablement products. In newer
telematics offerings of fuel sensors, our Company intends to invest in further product development to enable
affordability and accuracy to scale ahead. These initiatives enable successful product launch and scale by creating
unique value propositions, ensuring technical and market viability, establishing operational readiness and building
partner ecosystems. Set out below are details of our product development expenditures for the periods/years
indicated:

expenses

We aim to continue to develop new innovative offerings through business and product development, and upgrade
technological infrastructure to manage increasing scale and enhancing customer experience. Further, we intend to
use a part of the Net Proceeds to fund our expenditure in relation to product development. For further information,
see “Objects of the Offer – Details of the Objects” on page 121. The development and commercialization of new
products and services could be complex, time- consuming and costly, and its outcome is inherently uncertain. Our
inability to accurately estimate the cost to design, develop and launch new offerings could result in our failure to
effectively manage our customers’ expectations.

If we are unable to bring enough offerings or services to market or if offerings are brought to market after competing
offerings are commercialized, our growth strategy may not be successful and our business would be adversely
affected. In addition, even where we successfully develop any new or improved service in a timely manner based on
established customer needs, there can be no assurance that the new or improved offering will be commercially
successful and meet the price expectations of our customers. In addition, according to the Redseer Report,
encouraging truck operators in India to adopt digital technologies, including digital fuel cards and advanced
telematics solutions such as fuel sensors and dashcams, is a significant hurdle. For further information, see “Industry
Overview” on page 145. Further, our competitors may develop new processes or improve existing processes, that
may give them significant cost and marketing advantages, which in turn may adversely affect our revenues and
profitability. There can be no guarantee that any investment we make in developing services will be recouped, even
if we are successful in commercializing those products, which in turn may have an adverse effect on our results of
operations and financial condition. For instance, in August 2022, we disposed of our erstwhile subsidiary, Blackbuck
Poland Spółka z and subsequently, in January 2024, we discontinued our operations for our corporate freight
business division. These discontinued operations resulted in losses amounting to ₹37.06 million, ₹26.21 million,
₹269.63 million, ₹536.49 million and ₹542.15 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, June 30, 2023 and
Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For further details see “Restated Consolidated Financial Statements –

44
Note 36: Discontinued operations” on page 317. There can be no assurance that further instances of such losses will
not occur in the future.

16. Changes in our subscription or pricing models could adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition. Further, loss of customers including due to customers switching over to our competitors
could reduce our subscription fees which may negatively impact our business, revenue from operations and
financial condition.

We generate a significant portion of our revenue through subscription plans for our vehicle tracking solutions, fuel
sensors and FASTag Gold (a subscription service which provides value added services to subscribers such as
guaranteed double deduction refund, priority customer support and protection from getting blacklisted at the toll
plaza through auto-recharge and free tag replacement). Set out below are details of our subscription fees for the
periods/years indicated:

With increased product development and growth in our business, our pricing model is subject to continuous
revisions. For instance, we have gradually introduced and subsequently increased our subscription fees for our
vehicle tracking solutions and loads marketplace offering from August 2022 to Fiscal 2024. In relation to our vehicle
tracking solutions, we increased our subscription fees from ₹3,540 to ₹4,000 in June 2023. Similarly, in our loads
marketplace offering, we increased the price of our unlimited VIP subscription from ₹31,999 to ₹34,499 in January
2024. There can be no assurance that we will not increase this fee further in the future which may discourage truck
operators to engage with our platform and we may lose out on subscription fees. We may also be required to
decrease our subscription fees for a variety of reasons, including competitive pricing pressures, discounts,
anticipation of the introduction of new applications and features, changes in pricing models for our existing platform
and access to our offerings (including changes as to the timing of customers’ payments over the course of their
subscriptions), among others. As we expand our offerings, new competitors may introduce new solutions or services
that compete with ours, or as we enter into new markets, we may be unable to attract new customers using the same
pricing models that we have historically used. Larger competitors, including new entrants to our market, may reduce
the price of offerings that compete with ours or may bundle them with other offerings and provide them for free.
Any decrease in the fees for access to our platform, without a corresponding decrease in costs or increase in sales
volume, would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we have not faced
any instances of material losses due to any changes in our subscription or pricing models in the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that these instances will not occur in the
future.

17. Fluctuations in the road transportation industry and fuel prices may impact freight volumes and truck capacity,
which in turn could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business depends on the overall economic conditions that impact freight volumes and truck capacity.
Deterioration in the economic environment subjects our business to various risks which may have a material and
adverse impact on our operating results and cause us to not achieve growth or profitability. For instance, a reduction
in overall freight volumes would lead to a reduction in revenues and opportunities for growth; in addition, a decline
in the volume of freight shipped due to a downturn in shippers’ business cycles (such as during the monsoon season)
or other factors generally results in decreases in orders, as truck operators compete for shipping orders to maintain
truck productivity, which would affect our monetization opportunities. For more details, see “— Internal Risks —
Our business is subject to seasonality, which may contribute to fluctuations in our financial condition, financial
position and results of operations” on page 56. The success of our business depends significantly on truck operators
using our products and services. If a large number of truck operators go out of business due to macroeconomic or
other reasons such as the COVID-19 pandemic, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be
adversely affected. For instance, the widespread protest in January 2024 by truck drivers in India, led to significant
operational disruptions in the traffic movements of truck operators and the overall road transportation sector in India.
Any reduced vehicle movement, including due to such protests, may lead to a decrease in the volume of tolling
transactions undertaken by our customers, which in turn would impact our gross transaction value (“GTV”) in
tolling operations. Similarly, reduced vehicle movement may also lead to a decrease in fuel consumption, which
would impact our fueling GTV, thereby affecting our overall business, results of operations and financial condition.

45
GTV payments is defined as the rupee value of total transactions made in our payments business. A transaction
comprises all successful swipes by our customers in our tolling business (FASTags) in partnership with FASTag
Partner Banks and all recharges by our customers in the fueling business. Our customers recharge for tolling and
fueling through our BlackBuck App into the payment instrument of the FASTag and fuel partners. Significant
portion of this amount is deposited into our account and onward remitted to our partners’ account. GTV payments do
not represent the revenue of our Company. Our commission income in any period/year is only an agreed percentage
of the total GTV payments in that period/year. Our methodology of disclosing the GTV may not be comparable to
the methodology used by other platform companies. For further details on our commission income, see
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Results of Operations”
on page 359.

Further, certain of our offerings such as fuel cards are dependent on the purchase of fuel by our customers. We
receive commissions from our OMC Partners which are based on: (a) monthly consumption volume of fuel; or (b)
monthly transaction value of fuel purchased, by our customers using fuel cards of the respective OMC Partners
(distributed by us) at any specified fuel retail outlets of such partners. Accordingly, our revenues may be adversely
affected by a decline in fuel consumption which would reduce our transaction volumes and associated loyalty
commissions. In addition, our revenue may be affected by fuel prices, which are subject to volatility. Fuel prices are
dependent on several factors, all of which are beyond our control, including supply and demand for oil and gas,
political conditions in oil-producing and gas-producing nations, implementation of fuel efficiency standards and the
adoption by our truck operators of vehicles with greater fuel efficiency or alternative fuel sources and governmental
regulations, taxes and tariffs, among others. A decline in retail fuel prices in the future could cause a decrease in our
revenue from commissions from our fuel cards. Further, any significant increase in fuel prices may discourage fuel
consumption, which may also have a negative impact on our commissions and revenue from operations. The
occurrence of any of these instances could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition. While we have not faced any material instances of losses due to any fluctuation in fuel prices or
fuel consumption in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no
assurance that these instances will not occur in the future.

18. We are required to comply with data privacy regulations and information technology regulations and any non-
compliance in the future may have an adverse impact on business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to data privacy laws, rules and regulations that regulate the use of customer data. The existing and
emerging data privacy laws, rules and regulations limit the extent to which we can use personal identifiable
information and limit our ability to use third-party firms in connection with customer data. Compliance with these
regulations may require changes in the way data is collected, monitored, shared and used, which could increase
operating costs or limit the advantages from processing such data. In addition, non-compliance with data privacy
regulations may result in fines, damage to reputation or restrictions on the use or transfer of information, as well as
liability towards our FASTag Partner Banks, OMC Partners and Financial Partners under the respective contractual
arrangements. Certain of these laws, rules and regulations are relatively new and their interpretation and application
remain uncertain and are also subject to change and may become more restrictive in the future. For instance, the
Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (“PDP Act”), which received the assent of the President on August 11,
2023, provides for personal data protection and privacy of individuals, regulates cross-border data transfer, and
provides several exemptions for personal data processing by the Government. It also provides for the establishment
of a Data Protection Board of India for taking remedial actions and imposing penalties for breach of the provisions
of the PDP Act.

As part of our operations, we are required to comply with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the rules
thereof, each as amended, which provides for civil and criminal liability, including compensation to persons
affected, penalties and imprisonment for various cyber related offenses, including unauthorized disclosure of
confidential information and failure to protect sensitive personal data.

In addition, our systems and proprietary data that is stored electronically, including our users’ sensitive personal and
financial information, may be vulnerable to computer viruses, cybercrime, computer hacking and similar disruptions
from unauthorized tampering. Such technology systems may also be vulnerable to ransomware attacks, which may
block or restrict access to these systems and impair their functionality, unless certain ransom money is paid. If such
unauthorized use of our systems were to occur, data related to our customers and other proprietary information could
be compromised. The integrity and protection of our customer, employee and company data is critical to our
business. A theft, loss, fraudulent or unlawful use of customer, employee or company data could harm our reputation
or result in remedial and other costs, liabilities, fines or lawsuits.

19. We may not be able to adequately protect or continue to use our intellectual property, which could adversely
affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As of the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we have obtained three trademarks registered in India, including
and , under class 39 and ‘BLACKBUCK’ under classes 9, 16, 35, 39 and 42 of the Trade Marks
Act, 1999 and two trademarks, i.e., and registered with the World Intellectual Property
Organization in the international register of marks under class 39 of the Madrid Agreement and Protocol for use in

46
United States of America and in Europe. We have also made applications for registration of three trademarks with
the Registrar of Trademarks pursuant to applications bearing numbers 4369861/IAOI-1691 in the EU as well as
3442902 and 3761124 in India of which our applications bearing numbers 3442902 and 3761124 are contested by
third parties.

We have entered into a trademark licencing agreement dated June 28, 2024 with Blackbuck Finserve (the
“Trademark Agreement”), pursuant to which we have granted Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited an non-
exclusive, non-transferable, non- sub licensable license to use certain trademarks in respect of their current business
activities. Further, we have also agreed to permit the use of certain trademarks which are our registered trademarks
for so long as the Trademark Agreement is in force. The exclusive license is valid until such time that it is
terminated as per the Trademark Agreement. The consideration for the grant of the license for the Trademarks is a
royalty of 2% of the total revenue from operations for the rights granted to Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited in
relation to the licensed trademarks under the Agreement. For further details, see “History and Certain Corporate
Matters – Key terms of other subsisting material agreements” on page 213.

Further, we have an outstanding litigation before the Delhi High Court wherein a petitioner has challenged an
arbitral award in relation to a domain name, i.e., “www.blackbuck.in”, that was transferred to our Company. For
further details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” on page 382. For a list of intellectual
property owned and registered by us, see “Government and Other Approvals – Intellectual Property” on page 388.

The registration of intellectual property including trademarks is a time-consuming process and there can be no
assurance that any registration applications we may pursue will be successful and that such registration will be
granted to us. If we fail to register the appropriate intellectual property, or our efforts to protect relevant intellectual
property prove to be inadequate, the value attached to our brand and proprietary property could deteriorate, which
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In particular, the use of similar trade names by third parties may result in confusion among our customers and we are
exposed to the risk that entities in India and elsewhere could pass off their products as our products, including
imitation products, which may adversely affect sale of our products, resulting in a decrease in market share due to a
decrease in demand for our products. Such imitation products may not only result in loss of sales but also adversely
affect our reputation and consequently our future sales and results of operations. In the event of such unauthorized
use, we may be compelled to pursue legal action for the protection of our brand and intellectual property, which may
divert our attention and resources, thereby affecting our business operations. However, we may not prevail in any
lawsuits that we initiate, and the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, may not be adequate to compensate us
for the harm suffered. Additionally, we may provoke third parties to assert counterclaims against us. Any litigation,
whether or not it is resolved in our favor, could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our
technical and management personnel, which may adversely affect our business operations or financial results. For
any of these reasons, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or
misappropriating our intellectual property.

Our efforts to protect our intellectual property may not be adequate. Unauthorized parties may infringe upon or
misappropriate our services or proprietary information. In addition, despite our efforts to comply with the intellectual
property rights of others, we cannot determine with certainty whether we are infringing any existing third-party
intellectual property rights, which may force us to alter our manufacturing processes, obtain additional licenses or
cease parts of our operations. We may also be susceptible to claims from third-parties asserting infringement and
other related claims. Regardless of their merits, such claims could materially and adversely affect our relationships
with current or future customers, result in costly litigation, delay or disrupt supply of products, divert management’s
attention and resources, subject us to significant liabilities, or require us to cease certain activities. Any of the
foregoing could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

20. We rely on our BlackBuck App and other telecommunications and information technology systems, networks and
infrastructure to operate our business and any interruption or breakdown in such systems, networks or
infrastructure or our technical systems could impact our ability to effectively operate our platform or provide our
products and services.

As a technology-based platform, we face risks inherent in handling and protecting large volumes of data, including
protecting our transaction-processing systems and the data hosted in our system, detecting and prohibiting
unauthorized data share and transfer, preventing attacks on our system by third parties or fraudulent behavior or
improper use by our employees, and maintaining and updating our database. Any system failure, security breach or
third-party attacks or attempts to illegally obtain the data that result in any actual or perceived release of such data
could damage our reputation and brand, deter current and potential consumers from using our products and services,
damage our business, and expose us to potential legal liability. We rely on the process, capacity, reliability and
security of our BlackBuck App and other IT systems and infrastructure which are vulnerable to disruptions,
including those resulting from natural disasters, cyber-attacks or failures in third party-provided services. While we
have not faced any instances of hacking, malware, tampering or breach of data confidentiality in the three months
ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that these instances will not occur
in the future.

47
Our business could also be impacted by the failure of telecommunications network operators to provide us with the
requisite bandwidth which could interfere with the speed and availability of our platform. Further, any breakdown at
the level of our service providers (including in relation to internet, cloud hosting, data processing, storage, mapping
and navigation services) and our partners (i.e., OMC Partners, FASTag Partner Banks and Financial Partners) could
impact our operations. Any error, interruption or disruption in the functioning of the Android enabled applications
that we depend on, could lead to incorrect payments, delayed payments and overall delays in processing of orders,
any of which may have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we
have not faced any material instances of technology disruption in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals
2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that these instances will not occur in the future. In addition, in order
to perform reliably, the fixed telecommunications networks and internet infrastructure of internet service providers
in India, and in any other locations that we may operate in, require maintenance and periodic upgrade of the
appropriate networks and infrastructure which are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our back-up and
disaster recovery measures and business continuity planning would effectively eliminate or alleviate the risks arising
from the above contingencies.

21. Our inability to collect receivables in time or at all and default in payment from our customers could result in the
reduction of our profits and affect our cash flows.

Our business depends on our ability to successfully obtain payments from our customers for services provided. Our
debtor days was 20.41 days and 21.33 days as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. Set out below are
details of our trade receivables as of the dates indicated:

i.e., (B/A*365). For the three months ended June 30, debtor days refer to (average trade receivables relating to truck operator services
divided by revenue from continuing operations) multiplied by 91, i.e., (B/A*91)

Macroeconomic conditions could result in financial difficulties, including insolvency or bankruptcy, for our
customers, and as a result could cause customers to delay payments to us or request modifications to their payment
arrangements, all of which could increase our receivables or default on their payment obligations to us. Any increase
in defaults by our customers in the future may compel us to utilize greater amounts of our operating working capital,
thereby adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we have not faced any
instances of defaults by our customers in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022,
there can be no assurance that these instances will not occur in the future.

22. Our Directors also hold directorships in our Subsidiaries which are engaged in businesses similar to the line of
business of our Company.

Our Promoters also hold directorships in our subsidiaries. Our Chairman, Managing Director and Chief Executive
Officer, Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji is a director on the boards of BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited and TZF
Logistics Solutions Private Limited. Our Executive Director and Head – New Initiatives, Ramasubramanian
Balasubramaniam is a director on the board of ZZ Logistics Solutions Private Limited. Our Executive Director and
Chief Operating Officer, Chanakya Hridaya is a director on the boards of BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited, TZF
Logistics Solutions Private Limited and ZZ Logistics Solutions Private Limited. Our Non-Executive Independent
Director, Rajamani Muthuchamy is a director on the board of BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited.

48
TZF Logistics and ZZ Logistics are engaged in the business of providing technology-based logistics products and
services including transport for providing customers with a platform for hiring of all types of trucks, lorries,
containers, cold storage vehicles, cars and fleet taxis which are similar to the line of business that our Company is
engaged in. Further, our subsidiary BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited is also involved in vehicle financing
operations similar to our Company. For further details, see “History and Certain Corporate Matters – Common
pursuits with the Subsidiary” on page 210. All our related party transactions are conducted on an arm’s length basis.
Also see, “- Internal Risks - Our related party transactions may increase in the future and we cannot assure you that
these would be entered into on favorable terms, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition” on page 59.

23. Our Company has not filed certain statutory filings with the MCA in respect of one of our previous Directors in
the past. We cannot assure you that no legal proceedings or regulatory actions will be initiated against our
Company in the future.

We have not filed certain statutory filings with the MCA including the form filings made by the Company required
to be maintained by the Company. In the past, our Company has filed a compounding application dated March 8,
2024 for regularizing delays in filing Form ARF and Form FCGPR in relation to allotment of Series B CCPS dated
January 13, 2016, Series B1 CCPS dated February 2, 2017, Series C CCPS dated February 2, 2017 and Equity
Shares dated February 2, 2017 made by our Company. Additionally, our Company has also in the past, been
instructed to pay and has paid late submission fees for delays in reporting of certain allotments. For details, see “–
Internal Risks – We have filed compounding application with the RBI for delay in filing forms for certain allotments
made by our Company, and we may be required to pay a compounding fee and/or be subject to other regulatory
action”.

In the past, we have not filed certain statutory form filings with the MCA on account of technical issues in the
ministry of corporate affairs version 3 website in relation to the appointment and resignation of one of the previous
nominee directors of the Company who resigned from the Board on June 15, 2024. The Company has taken the
necessary steps to complete procedural formalities on the MCA portal and has filed the necessary forms with the
MCA.

While no legal proceedings or regulatory action has been initiated against our Company in relation to the non-
filing/delayed filing and statutory lapses as of the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we cannot assure you that
such proceedings or regulatory actions will not be initiated against our Company in the future in relation non-filing
of the forms with the relevant authorities within the prescribed timelines. The actual amount of the penalty which
may be imposed or loss which may be suffered by our Company cannot be ascertained at this stage and depends on
the circumstances of any potential action which may be brought against our Company. We cannot assure you that
any such proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or reputation.

24. There have been certain instances of delays in payment of statutory dues by our Company in the past. Any delay
in payment of statutory dues by our Company in future, may result in the imposition of penalties and in turn may
have an adverse effect on our Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

As of June 30, 2024, we had a total of 1,849 employees for whom we were required to pay certain statutory dues
including provident fund contributions under the Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act,
1952, employee state insurance contributions under the Employees’ State Insurance Act, 1948, professional taxes,
labour welfare fund and gratuity.

The table below sets forth the details of the statutory dues paid by our Company in relation to its employees for
Fiscal 2024:

Labour Welfare Fund 0.14 0 0.11 0
Total 22.64 3 98.05 5

We have faced instances of delays in payments of certain of these statutory dues in the past. As of June 30, 2024, we
had outstanding statutory dues towards provident fund, professional tax and state insurance corporation aggregating
to ₹8.06 million. As of July 31, 2024, all of our obligations for payment of such dues have been discharged, within
statutory timelines in accordance with applicable laws which were outstanding as on June 30, 2024.

49
Further, there have been certain delays in the filing of GST returns by our Company on account of outage and other
technical issues in the GST Portal. For instance, while our Company has filed its GST returns since January 2024,
the GST portal did not allow our Company to file returns for the month of December 2023. As a result, the Company
has not been able to file its GST return for December 2023.

Any further delays that may arise in the future could lead to financial penalties from the relevant government
authorities which in turn may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and cash flows.
While no penalty or fine has been levied by the appropriate authorities against us for the aforementioned delays, we
cannot assure you that we will not be subject to such penalties and fines in the future which may have a material
adverse impact on our financial condition and cash flows.

25. Audit reports on our standalone financial statements include certain observations in the annexure to the report
prescribed under the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order, 2020 for Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022.

The audit reports issued by our Statutory Auditors also includes certain observations in the annexure to the reports
prescribed under the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order, 2020 for Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022 in relation to our
Company, which do not require any corrective adjustments in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
These matters involve delays in payment of statutory dues in respect of provident fund, cash losses incurred during
the financial years, maintenance of improper records of property, plant and equipment, and the filing of quarterly
returns or statements with certain banks and financial institutions, which are not in agreement with the unaudited
books of accounts, among others. For further details, see “Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on page
239. We cannot assure you that our Statutory Auditors’ reports for any future financial period will not contain
similar matters or other remarks, observations or other matters prescribed under the Companies (Auditor’s Report)
Order, 2020, and that such matters will not otherwise affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.

26. One of the Promoters and Executive Director and Head – New Initiatives is associated as a director and
shareholder of one of our Shareholders, Miebach Consulting India Private Limited (“MCIPL”), with may result
in a conflict of interest with us.

Our Promoter and Executive Director and Head – New Initiatives, Ramasubramanian Balasubramaniam is director
on the board of directors of our Shareholders, MCIPL. Further, Ramasubramanian Balasubramaniam holds one
equity share in MCIPL as a nominee shareholder on behalf of Miebach Logistik Holding GMBH, Germany,
representing a negligible percentage of the shareholding of MCIPL.

27. We rely on Android operating systems as well as operating systems fitted in vehicles to make our services and app
available to customers.

We depend on Android operating systems and their application marketplaces and developers to make our services
and mobile application available to our customers. Any changes in such systems and policies of the companies that
control these systems could adversely affect distribution, accessibility and availability of our mobile application. If
Android operating systems or application marketplaces limit or prohibit us from making our platform available to
customers that utilize our platform, make changes that degrade the functionality of our mobile application, increase
the cost of using our mobile application, impose terms of use unsatisfactory to us, or modify their search or ratings
algorithms in ways that are detrimental to us, or if our competitors’ placement in such mobile operating systems’
application marketplace is more prominent than the placement of our applications, our customer growth could slow
down. Our mobile application is subject to being suspended and/or barred from the Android marketplace or from any
device that uses such marketplace on several grounds including if our mobile application is found to contain
elements that may cause serious harm to user devices or data. If our customers encounter any difficulty accessing or
using our mobile application or our offerings on the mobile application, our customer growth and customer
engagement would be adversely affected. We may also choose to list our mobile application on other operating
systems in the future to access a larger customer base. This may lead to additional operating costs and there can be
no assurance that we will be successful in meeting the standards required by such operating systems for listing
approvals. While our mobile application has not been suspended or barred from the Android marketplace or from
any device that uses such marketplace in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022,
there can be no assurance that these instances will not occur in the future.

Further, as new mobile devices, mobile platforms and mobile browsers are released, there can be no guarantee that
certain mobile devices will continue to support our platform or effectively roll out updates to our application.
Additionally, in order to deliver a high-quality application, we need to ensure that our platform is designed to work
effectively with a range of mobile technologies, systems, networks, and standards. If our customers encounter any
difficulty accessing or using our mobile application on their mobile devices or if we are unable to adapt to changes
in popular mobile operating systems, we expect that the growth and engagement of our customers would be
adversely affected.

28. We have faced high attrition among our employees in the past (37.32% and 41.08% in the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively). Our continued success is dependent on our employees, key
management personnel and senior management personnel and our inability to attract and retain employees, key

50
management personnel or the loss of services of our senior management personnel in the future may have an
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our ability to sustain our rate of growth depends upon our ability to manage key issues such as selecting and
retaining our employees, upskilling our employees, addressing emerging workforce challenges, and ensuring a high
standard of customer service. In order to be successful, we must attract, train, motivate and retain experienced
industry and management professionals, and highly skilled employees, who are instrumental to the success of our
business. Further, we are led by Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji, our Chairman, Managing Director and Chief Executive
Officer, Ramasubramanian Balasubramaniam, our Executive Director and Head-New Initiatives and Chanakya
Hridaya, our Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer, each of whom have over a decade of work experience
and have been instrumental in the growth of our business. Our Promoters and key managerial personnel and senior
management personnel have contributed to the growth of our business, and our future success is dependent on the
continued services of our management team.

An inability to retain our permanent employees, senior management personnel or key managerial personnel may
have an adverse effect on our operations. Our Chief Financial Officer and Company Secretary were appointed on
June 26, 2024. There has been no change to our Chief Executive Officer in the three months ended June 30, 2024
and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022. Further, we designated our senior management personnel and certain key
management personnel (other than our Chief Executive Officer) in Fiscal 2024 and have not faced any attrition of
such individuals as on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus. Set out below are details of our attrition for our
permanent employees for the periods/years indicated:

Particulars As of and for the three months As of and for the financial year ended March
ended June 30, 2024 31,
2024 2023 2022
Total number of permanent employees 1,849 1,783 1,791 1,480
Attrition rate of permanent employees* 37.32% 41.08% 44.01% 34.97%
(%)
* Attrition rate has been calculated by dividing the total number of permanent employees who resigned during the relevant period/year with
the total headcount of the permanent employees at the end of the period/year and the number of permanent employees resigned during the
period/year.

Competition for qualified personnel with relevant industry expertise in India is intense. We face intense competition
for such personnel and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in hiring or retaining appropriately
qualified people, which in turn may impact our ability to expand our business and our revenues could decline.
Further, recruiting new employees who require training tailored to our business and business operations, as well as
providing training to our existing employees on our internal policies, procedures and systems, could be costly, in
terms of time, money and resources. Our inability to attract and retain talented professionals, or the resignation or
loss of such professionals, may have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As of June 30, 2024, we had a total of 1,849 permanent employees and engaged 3,688 contract workers. In the event
our employee relationships deteriorate, or we experience significant labor unrest, strikes, work stoppages and other
labor action, there could be an adverse impact on our operations. While we have not experienced any material
disagreements or any material instances of labor unrest in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024,
2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that we will not experience disruptions due to disputes or other problems
with our work force, which may adversely affect our ability to continue our operations. We are unable to predict or
control any such action in the future, and any such event could adversely affect our business, results of operations
and financial condition.

29. Our vehicle financing offering exposes us to various risks including in relation to high-risk borrowers and
collateral recovery which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We commenced full-fledged operations of our vehicle financing offering in Fiscal 2024. We provide vehicle
financing to truck operators for the purchase of used commercial vehicles or financing on an existing vehicle through
our Financial Partners and through our subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve. BlackBuck Finserve is a non-banking
financial company which received its license to carry on the business of a non-banking financial institution without
accepting public deposits from the RBI in August 2023. Also see “- Internal Risks - We have limited experience in
our vehicle financing offering, which makes it difficult to accurately assess our future growth prospects and may
negatively affect our business, results of operations and financial condition” on page 181. As of June 30, 2024, we
have facilitated disbursements of 5,109 loans amounting to ₹2,527.56 million, of which 92.69% and 7.31% of the
total loans disbursed were through our Financial Partners and our subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve, respectively. Set
out below are details of our revenue contribution from our vehicle financing offerings for the periods/years
indicated:

Our vehicle financing offering, in addition to other risks that affect our business, subjects us to the following risks:

• Decline in the business operations, reputation or customer confidence levels in our Financial Partners.
Adverse developments faced by our Financial Partners could impact us as well, including, as a result of our
Financial Partners’ inability to effectively manage their operations or changes in laws and policies affecting
our Financial Partners’ ability to operate profitably;

• Ability to maintain and increase our network of partners;

• Exposure to relatively high-risk borrowers with limited banking and credit history;

• Liability to indemnify our Financial Partners of losses incurred due to borrower defaults up to an agreed
ceiling;

• Customer defaults in repayment of loan provided through our subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve, including
delays in repayment of principal or interest on loans and our inability to recover the full value of collateral
or amounts otherwise sufficient to cover the outstanding amounts due under defaulted vehicle loans given
by us, on a timely basis or at all;

• Erroneous or misleading information provided by customers which may affect our judgment of their
creditworthiness, as well as the value of and title to the collateral;

• Ability of our Financial Partners to overcome the challenges of underwriting to borrowers and assessing
credit-worthiness;

• Inability to maintain the quality of our loan portfolio or manage the growing loan portfolio which may
result in increases in non-performing assets;

• An increasingly competitive financial services industry, which creates significant pricing pressures. Our
competitors may have greater financial resources, have greater brand recognition among customers, better
institutional distribution platforms and may have lower cost of funds compared to us;

• Changes in Indian regulations and policies affecting commercial vehicles and infrastructure such as any
change in the regulations relating to “priority sector advances” by the RBI. If the laws relating to priority
sector lending applicable to the banks undergo a change or our loan portfolio is no longer classified as a
priority sector advance by the RBI, our operations will be significantly and adversely impacted;

• Volatility in interest rates in India which are highly sensitive to many factors beyond our control, including
the monetary policies of the RBI, deregulation of the financial sector in India and domestic and
international economic and political conditions; and

52
• Failure to comply with minimum capital adequacy requirements in the future, under current or future
regulations, may subject BlackBuck Finserve to adverse actions by RBI, including imposition of penalties.

We commenced our vehicle financing offering on a pilot basis in Fiscal 2022 by serving a small segment of
customers in a limited region with a single vehicle financing partner. Our key activities included customer profiling,
product design, process optimization, technology integration and continuous performance monitoring. This
controlled approach enabled us to test the business model, gather insights and establish a foundation for potential
future expansion, while minimizing initial risks. We have since commenced full-fledged operations in Fiscal 2024
and have not faced any instances that led to a material adverse effect on our business, result of operations and
financial condition. However, there can be no assurance that such instances will not occur in the future.

30. We have limited experience in our vehicle financing offering, which makes it difficult to accurately assess the
risks and challenges in the industry which may negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

While we partnered with our Financial Partners to provide vehicle financing loans on a pilot basis from June 2022,
we have limited experience in disbursing vehicle financing loans through on-balance sheet transactions, i.e., through
our subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve, to our customers. BlackBuck Finserve, is a non-banking financial company
which received its license to carry on the business of a non-banking financial institution without accepting public
deposits from the RBI in August 2023 and commenced lending operations in October 2023. Certain of our
competitors may have a longer operating history and more experience as compared to us in this business offering. In
addition, these operations may be accompanied by operating and marketing challenges that may be different from
those we have encountered in relation to our other business offerings.

Further, we intend to use a part of the Net Proceeds to invest in BlackBuck Finserve to finance the augmentation of
its capital base to meet its future capital requirements. For further information, see “Objects of the Offer – Details of
the Objects” on page 121. Assessing the future prospects of this business is challenging in light of both known and
unknown risks and difficulties we may encounter and could place significant demands on our management team and
other resources. In particular, our management may have less experience in implementing our business plan and
strategy in this offering compared to more well- established competitors in this industry. In addition, we may face
challenges in planning and forecasting accurately as a result of our inexperience in implementing and evaluating our
business strategies in the vehicle financing industry. We may also expand our vehicle financing offering in newer
geographies, and factors such as competition, customer requirements, regulatory regimes, business practices and
customs in these new markets may differ from those in our existing markets, and our experience in our existing
markets may not be relevant to these new markets. Our inability to successfully address these risks, difficulties and
challenges as a result of our inexperience in the vehicle financing industry may have a negative impact on our ability
to implement our strategic initiatives, which may negatively affect our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

31. There are outstanding legal proceedings involving our Company, Promoters and Directors. An adverse outcome
in any of these proceedings may affect our reputation and standing and impact our future business and could
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we are involved in certain tax, regulatory and criminal legal
proceedings, which are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals, forums and
appellate authorities. We cannot assure you that these legal proceedings will be decided in our favor. Decisions in
proceedings adverse to our interests may have a significant adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition. In relation to tax proceedings, in the event of any adverse outcome, we may be required to pay
the disputed amounts along with applicable interest and penalty and may also incur additional tax incidence going
forward.

A summary of pending material civil, tax and criminal proceedings involving our Company, Promoters and
Directors, as identified by our Company pursuant to the materiality policy adopted by our Board is provided below:

If any new developments arise, such as a change in Indian law or rulings against us by appellate courts or tribunals,
we may need to make provisions in our financial statements that could increase our expenses and current or long-
term liabilities or reduce our cash and bank balance. For details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Other Material
Developments” on page 382.

32. We have obtained debt financing and are required to comply with certain restrictive covenants under our
financing agreements. Any non-compliance under such agreements may adversely affect our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

As of June 30, 2024, our non-current borrowings amounted to ₹23.46 million. We may also incur additional
indebtedness in the future. The table below sets forth certain information on our non-current borrowings, non-current
borrowings to total equity ratio and debt service coverage ratio, as of the dates indicated:

Particulars June 30, 2024 June 30, 2023 March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022
Non-current Borrowings (₹ million) 23.46 - 28.46 - 120.00
Finance Costs (₹ million) (1) 1.32 - 1.43 12.35 136.90

(1) Finance costs consists of interest expense on non-current borrowings based on the Restated Consolidated Financial Information
(2) Non-current borrowings to total equity ratio is computed as non-current borrowings divided by total equity.
(3) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as restated profit/(loss) before tax from continuing operations and adjusted for (a) finance costs (b)
depreciation and amortization expense (c) employee share-based payment expenses (d) other gains/ losses (net) and (e) exceptional items
(4) Debt service coverage ratio is calculated as earnings for debt service (Adjusted EBIDTA) divided by debt service (finance costs as specified
in (1) above and principal repayments of non-current borrowings). Principal repayment of non-current borrowings is as referred to the in
restated statement of cash flows.
(5) Debt service coverage ratio is not applicable for the three months period June 30,2023 and Fiscals 2023 and 2022 as Adjusted EBITDA for
Fiscals 2023 and 2022 is negative.

Our ability to pay interest and repay the principal for our indebtedness is dependent upon our ability to manage our
business operations and generate sufficient cash flows to service such debt. Any additional indebtedness we incur
may have significant consequences, including, without limitation: requiring us to use a significant portion of our
cash flow from operations and other available cash to service our indebtedness, thereby reducing the funds available
for other purposes, including capital expenditures, acquisitions, and strategic investments; reducing our flexibility in
planning for or reacting to changes in our business, competition pressures and market conditions; and limiting our
ability to obtain additional financing on favorable terms for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, share
repurchases, or other general corporate and other purposes.

Our financing arrangements include conditions that require us to obtain respective lenders’ consent prior to carrying
out certain activities and entering into certain transactions. Failure to meet these conditions or obtain these consents
could have significant consequences on our business and operations. These covenants vary depending on the
requirements of the financial institution extending such loan and the conditions negotiated under each financing
agreement. Certain of the corporate actions that require prior consents from certain lenders include, among others,
changes in the shareholding of our Promoters, changes in management or control of our Company, changes to the
capital structure of our Company, changes to our business, changes to our corporate or trade name and changes to
our constitutional documents. Failure to comply with such covenants may restrict or delay certain actions or
initiatives that we may propose to take from time to time.

A failure to observe the covenants under our financing arrangements or to obtain necessary waivers may lead to the
termination of our credit facilities, acceleration of amounts due under such facilities, suspension of further
access/withdrawals, either in whole or in part, for the use of the facility and/or restructuring of our debt.

54
33. Our insurance coverage may not be sufficient or may not adequately protect us against risks and unexpected
events, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We maintain insurance coverage under various insurance to safeguard against risks and unexpected events, including
for our office and professional establishment as well as directors and officers liability, group mediclaim policy,
group term life insurance and marine cargo policy.

Set out below are details of our insurance coverage on our total insured assets as of the dates indicated:

Particulars As of June 30, As of March 31,


2024 2023 2024 2023 2022
Amount of Sum Insured (₹ million) (A) 176.96 164.79 164.79 209.94 168.88
Gross amount of Insured Assets (₹ million) (B)* 151.25 166.11 163.62 224.46 200.54
Insurance coverage to gross value of Insured 117.00% 99.21% 100.72% 93.53% 84.21%
Assets (%) (C = A/B)
* Gross amount of Insured assets is total gross amount of property, plant and equipment, excluding Plant and machinery (Telematics devices)
and motor vehicles.

We cannot assure you that our insurance coverage is sufficient to prevent us from any loss or that we will be able to
successfully claim our losses under our current insurance policy on a timely basis, or at all. If we incur any loss that
is not covered by our insurance policies, or the compensated amount is significantly less than our actual loss, our
business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. If our insurance
carriers change the terms of our policies in a manner unfavorable to us, our insurance costs could increase. While we
have not faced any such instances in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, if our
losses significantly exceed or differ from our insurance coverage or our losses cannot be recovered through
insurance in the future, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Any payments we make to cover any losses, damages or liabilities or any delays we experience in receiving
appropriate payments from our insurers could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations
and financial condition. For further details on the insurance policies maintained by us, see “Our Business –
Insurance” on page 187.

Further, our insurance coverage may expire from time to time and we apply for the renewal of our insurance
coverage in the normal course of our business. While none of our insurance policies are due for renewal as of date,
we cannot assure you that such renewals in the future (on expiry) will be granted in a timely manner, at acceptable
cost or at all.

34. Our Company has in the past undertaken a bonus issue which may impact the ability of the Company to declare
dividends or undertake bonus issuances in the future.

Pursuant to the board resolution dated May 27, 2024 and Shareholders’ resolution dated May 28, 2024, our
Company capitalised a sum out of our Company’s securities premium account for the purpose of issuance and
allotment of Equity Shares by way of bonus issue (“Bonus Issue”) to the eligible shareholders of our Company as on
the record date of May 27, 2024 (“Record Date”), in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Companies
Act, 2013. The allotment was made pursuant to the board resolution dated June 7, 2024 in proportion of 550 new
Equity Shares for every one Equity Share held by the shareholders of our Company held as on the Record Date. For
details, see “Capital Structure – Notes to the Capital Structure – Share capital history of our Company – Equity
share capital” on page 89.

The Company’s securities premium account stood at ₹19,671,674,359.36 as at March 31, 2024 and
₹19,530,400,798.36 as on the date of this RHP after accounting for (i) the Bonus Issue and (ii) the conversion of the
partly paid-up Equity Shares to fully paid-up Equity Shares. The utilisation of our Company’s free reserves in the
past to undertake the aforesaid Bonus Issue may impact our Company’s ability to declare dividends and undertake
bonus issuances in the future.

35. The audit reports on our special purpose audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods
ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 include certain emphasis of matters.

The audit reports issued by our Statutory Auditors dated October 14, 2024 on our special purpose audited
consolidated financial statements as at and for the periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 include emphasis
of matters in relation to the express purpose of preparation of such financial statements for the purposes of the Offer.
As a result, the special purpose interim consolidated financial statements may not be suitable for another purpose.
For more information, see “Financial Information - Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on page 239.

We cannot assure you that our Statutory Auditors’ reports for any future financial period will not contain similar
matters or other remarks or observations, and that such matters will not otherwise affect our financial condition, cash
flows and results of operations.

55
36. Our Company had received a summons to appear as a witness in a proceeding before the State of Punjab had
initiated proceedings under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act against a user of our
Company’s platform. The District and Sessions Courts may pass adverse adjudication orders against us which
may adversely impact our business, our financial condition and our reputation.

The State of Punjab had initiated proceedings under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (“NDPS
Act”), 1985 against Gurteg Singh who had used the Company’s platform to contact a shipper carry goods with
vehicle bearing number PB-65-AT-2368 subsequent to being found carrying substances punishable under section 15,
61 and 85 of the NDPS Act. Our Company had received a summon on April 12, 2024 to appear as a witness and had
submitted evidence in the matter before the District and Sessions Courts, Rupnagar, Punjab on April 30, 2024. The
matter is currently pending. Further, the said matter is not quantifiable.

We cannot assure you that the District and Sessions Courts will not ask for additional information in relation to our
Company, or our employees or if we will be able to provide such information to the satisfaction of the District and
Sessions Courts. We cannot assure you that the court will not pass an adverse order against the Company or impose
a penalty or take any other action against us. Any such imposition of penalties or passing of such orders may have a
material adverse impact on our business, our financial performance and/or our reputation.

For further details of please see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments - Litigation against our
Company – Criminal Litigation” on page 382.

37. We have in this Red Herring Prospectus included certain non-GAAP financial measures and certain other
industry measures related to our operations and financial performance that may vary from any standard
methodology that is applicable across the industry we operate.

Certain non-GAAP financial measures relating to our financial performance, namely Net Worth, EBITDA, EBITDA
margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Contribution Margin, Operating Leverage and certain other industry measures relating
to our operations and financial performance, such as, annual transacting truck operator, average monthly transacting
truck operator, monthly to annual truck operator ratio and gross transaction value of payments for fiscal year (“Non-
GAAP Measures”) have been included in this Red Herring Prospectus. Such Non-GAAP Measures are
supplemental measures of our performance and liquidity is not required by, or presented in accordance with, Ind AS,
IFRS or US GAAP. We compute and disclose such Non-GAAP Measures and such other industry related statistical
and operational information relating to our operations and financial performance as we consider such information to
be useful measures of our business and financial performance, and because such measures are frequently used by
securities analysts, investors and others to evaluate the operational performance of similar businesses, many of
which provide such Non-GAAP Measures and other industry related statistical and operational information. Further,
these Non-GAAP Measures are not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under Ind AS, IFRS or
US GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, profit/(loss) for the
years/period or any other measure of financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance,
liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities derived in accordance
with Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP. These Non-GAAP Measures and such other industry related statistical and
operational information relating to our operations and financial performance may not be computed on the basis of
any standard methodology that is applicable across the industry and therefore may not be comparable to financial
and operational measures, and industry related statistical information of similar nomenclature that may be computed
and presented by other similar companies. In addition, these Non-GAAP Measures are not standardized terms, hence
a direct comparison of these Non-GAAP Measures between companies may not be possible. Other companies may
calculate these Non-GAAP Measures differently from us, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Further, we track certain operating metrics with our internal systems and tools. Our methodologies for tracking these
metrics may change over time, which could result in changes to our metrics in the future, including to metrics that
we publicly disclose. If our internal systems and tools track our metrics inaccurately in the future, the corresponding
data may be inaccurate. This may impair our understanding and evaluation of certain aspects of our business, which
could affect our operations and long- term strategies. Such supplemental financial and operational information is
therefore of limited utility as an analytical tool, and investors are cautioned against considering such information
either in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our Restated Consolidated Financial Information disclosed
elsewhere in this Red Herring Prospectus. For further information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Measures” on page 365.

38. Our business is subject to seasonality, which may contribute to fluctuations in our results of operations and
financial condition.

Our business is subject to seasonality, as we see reduced demand of our services (particularly our payments and
loads marketplace offerings) from our customers during the monsoon season. Monsoons bring a unique set of
challenges to the logistics and transportation industries, from road damage to the increased cost of operations due to
constant rerouting of trucks, to increased need for monitoring and coordination. These are caused due to issues such
as heavy rainfall, waterlogged roads and reduced visibility. Accordingly, our financial condition, cash flows and
results of operations in the first quarter of a financial year may not accurately reflect the trends for the entire

56
financial year and may not be comparable with our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations for other
quarters. Additionally, any significant event such as unforeseen economic slowdown, political instabilities or
epidemics during any peak season may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

39. We face competitive pressures in our business and our inability to compete effectively would be detrimental to our
business, results of operations and financial condition.

India’s freight industry continues to be characterized by high intermediation due to deeply entrenched local networks
of brokers. Bridging this gap with truck operators through a mix of physical and digital outreach, while continuing to
increase the liquidity of the marketplace will require sustained effort. Moreover, the development of railways as an
alternative to road freight may lead to a reduction in dependence on trucking over the next few decades. Further, the
fleet payments landscape in India is very competitive, with established players including multiple banks that
continue to push for higher market share as the digital landscape evolves. In relation to vehicle financing, gaining
market share can be challenging as traditional NBFCs possess extensive physical presence with proven underwriting
models and efficient collection services. Financial services players and banks such as Shriram Finance, ICICI Bank,
IDFC First Bank, Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, State Bank of India and Kotak Mahindra Bank among numerous others
provide solutions around tolling and vehicle financing. (Source: Redseer Report) For further information, see
“Industry Overview” on page 145.

While we do not have direct, identifiable competitors providing the entire spectrum of services we provide, we
compete against specific market players in certain of our offerings. In relation to our payments, telematics and loads
marketplace offerings, we believe the principal competitive factors in the market for these offerings include industry
expertise, platform and product features and functionality, ability to build new technology and keep pace with
innovation, security and reliability. We compete in markets characterized by changing technology, changing
customer needs, evolving industry standards, and frequent introductions of new products and services. According to
the Redseer Report, the trucking industry grapples with structural challenges and inefficiencies throughout the truck
operator’s journey. Issues like ineffective monitoring, cash leakages, low accessibility and high intermediation
increase the overall fulfillment costs directly affecting their cost of operations. Further, our industry is exposed to
challenges regarding integrated service offerings, that may require substantial effort and coordination (Source:
Redseer Report). We expect competition to increase in the future as established and emerging companies continue to
enter the markets we serve or attempt to address the problems that our offerings seek to address. Moreover, as we
expand the scope of our offerings, we may face additional competition. We may not be able to maintain our
competitiveness in any of these areas with respect to any of our services. Our efforts to offset pricing pressures,
including strategies to advance our technological capabilities, may not be successful. Our existing and potential
competitors may equal or surpass us in terms of their financial, sales, marketing and other resources. If we fail to
compete effectively in the future, our business and prospects for growth could be materially and adversely affected.
Our customers may opt to transact with our competitors instead of with us if we fail to develop and provide the
technology and quality required by our customers at a rate comparable to our competitors. There can be no assurance
that we will be able to competitively develop the higher value add offerings necessary to retain business or attract
new customers. There can also be no assurance that we will be able to establish a compelling advantage over our
competitors, which may have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

40. Certain CCPS which were converted to Equity Shares of face value of ₹1 each in terms of the SEBI ICDR
Regulations are held by certain Shareholders of our Company, in physical form as their demat accounts have not
been opened.

As on the date of the Draft Red Herring Prospectus, (i) GSAM Holdings LLC held 11,060 Series D CCPS; and (ii)
Rajaraman Parameswaran held 15 Series E CCPS. As on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, such CCPS shares
have been converted to (i) 4,997,129 Equity Shares of face value of ₹1 each; and (ii) 6,855 Equity Shares of face
value of ₹1 each respectively, (collectively, “Converted Shares”) pursuant to the conversion of such CCPS into
Equity Shares as required under the SEBI ICDR Regulations. As on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, such
Converted Shares resulting from conversion of respective series of CCPS held by GSAM Holdings LLC and
Rajaraman Parameswaran are held in physical form as their demat accounts are not opened and operational. Our
Company had credited such Converted Shares to demat suspense account “Unclaimed Securities – Suspense Escrow
Account”. For further details, see “Capital Structure” on page 88.

41. Internal or external fraud or misconduct could adversely affect our reputation, business, results of operations and
financial condition.

Our business may expose us to the risk of fraud, misappropriation, misrepresentation or unauthorized transactions by
our employees, Touchpoints, truck operators and unauthorized third-parties, which may subject us to regulatory or
other proceedings thereby adversely affecting our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.
Misconduct by our employees or Touchpoints could involve the breach of any applicable confidentiality agreement
or engagement in illegal or unethical practices for acquisition of customers.

57
Our operations across all our offerings subject us to fraudulent schemes to exploit and deceive both our customers
and our platform. These may take various forms, including KYC fraud, chargeback fraud, identity theft, fake
listings, unauthorized use of bank account information (including use of stolen or fraudulent credit card data) or
mobile phone numbers or account takeovers of customers. For instance, in relation to our tolling offering, our truck
operators may use FASTags issued for light weight trucks for heavy weight trucks in order to pay reduced fees,
which may adversely affect our revenues. We have instituted a platform trust team (which investigates instances of
fraud) comprising 23 members as of June 30, 2024 and implemented various measures intended to anticipate,
identify, prevent and address the risks of such activities. However, these measures may not adequately address or
prevent all or any of these illegal, improper or otherwise inappropriate activities. While we have not faced any
instances of fraud or misconduct by employees, Touchpoints or other third-parties that led to any material losses in
the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that these
instances will not occur in the future.

42. Our Promoters, i.e., Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji, Chanakya Hridaya, and Ramasubramanian Balasubramaniam
have limited experience in which our business is operating.

Our Promoters Rajesh Kumar Naidu Yabaji, Chanakya Hridaya, and Ramasubramanian Balasubramaniam
incorporated our Company in 2015. Prior to incorporating our Company, our Promoters did not have any experience
in the Indian trucking industry. Our Promoters have a cumulative work experience of 27 years in the Indian trucking
industry and owning to the limited experience in such sector, our Promoters may have less experience in
implementing our business plan and strategy in this offering compared to more well established competitors in this
industry and may face challenges in addressing the risks frequently encountered by our industry. Our inability to
successfully address these risks, difficulties, and challenges as a result of our Promoters’ limited experience in the
Indian trucking sector may have a negative impact on our ability to implement our strategic initiatives, which may
negatively affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. For further details on our Promoters, see
“Our Promoters and Promoter Group” and “Our Management – Brief Biographies of Directors” on pages 234 and
217, respectively.

43. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information included in this Red Herring Prospectus is presented for
illustrative purposes only and may not accurately reflect our future financial condition, financial position and
results of operations.

This Red Herring Prospectus contains our Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information as of and for the three months
ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended March 31, 2024. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been
prepared to illustrate the impact of the transfer of the corporate freight business to a third party (the “Slump Sale”)
which was completed on August 22, 2024 on our Restated Consolidated Financial Statements. We executed a
business transfer agreement for the Slump Sale on August 5, 2024 with a third party/buyer for a consideration of
₹958.54 million which is higher than the net book value of assets transferred. Accordingly, the Slump Sale did not
materially impact the networth of our Company. For further details, see “Financial Information –Pro Forma
Financial Information” on page 330.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information illustrates the impact of the Slump Sale on our restated
consolidated summary statement of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 and as if the Slump
Sale was completed on June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively, and on our restated consolidated summary
statement of profit and loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended March 31, 2024 as if the
Slump Sale was completed on April 1, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial
Information has been prepared and included in this Red Herring Prospectus on a voluntary basis. The Unaudited Pro
Forma Financial Information addresses a hypothetical situation and does not represent our actual consolidated
financial condition or results of operations and is not intended to be indicative of our future financial condition and
results of operations. As the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared for illustrative purposes
only, by its nature, it may not give an accurate picture of the actual financial condition, cash flows and results of
operations that would have occurred had such transactions by us been effected on the date they are assumed to have
been effected, and is not intended to be indicative of our future financial performance.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, including accounting standards, and accordingly should not be relied upon as if it had been
prepared in accordance with those principles and standards. Accordingly, the degree of reliance placed by anyone on
such Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information should be limited. Further, the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial
Information has not been prepared in accordance with accounting or other standards and practices generally accepted
in jurisdictions other than India, such as Regulation S-X under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
accordingly should not be relied upon as if they had been prepared in accordance with those standards and practices
of any other jurisdiction. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information included in this Red Herring Prospectus is
not intended to be indicative of expected results or operations in the future periods or the future financial position of
our Company or a substitute for our past results, and the degree of reliance placed by investors on our Unaudited Pro
Forma Financial Information should be limited. Further, if the various assumptions underlying the preparation of the
Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information do not come to pass, our actual results could be materially different

58
from those indicated in the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information. For further details, see “Financial
Information – Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information”.

44. Our business requires us to obtain and renew certain licenses and permits from government, regulatory and
statutory authorities and the failure to obtain or renew them in a timely manner may adversely affect our
business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business requires us to obtain and renew, from time to time, certain approvals, licenses, registrations and permits
under various regulations, guidelines, circulars and statutes regulated by authorities such as the Government of India,
the State Governments and certain other regulatory and government authorities, for operating our business. For
further details, see “Government and Other Approvals” on page 387.

While we have applied for some of these approvals and permits, we cannot assure you that we will receive these
approvals on time or at all in relation to execution of our business operations. If we fail to obtain the necessary
approvals and permits or if there is any delay in obtaining such approvals and permits, it may disrupt our operations,
result in the application of penalties and may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition. For instance, we have made applications for registration as a corporate agent to the Insurance
Regulatory and Development Authority of India. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such
licenses and certifications, in time or at all. Failure by us to renew, maintain or obtain the required permits or
approvals at the requisite time may result in the interruption of our operations and may have an adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition. Further, we cannot assure that the approvals, licenses,
registrations and permits issued to us would not be suspended or revoked in the event of non-compliance or alleged
non-compliance with any terms or conditions thereof, or pursuant to any regulatory action. Any failure to renew the
approvals that have expired or apply for and obtain the required approvals, licenses, registrations or permits, or any
suspension or revocation of any of the approvals, licenses, registrations and permits that have been or may be issued
to us, may impede our operations.

45. Our online app marketing may constitute internet advertisement, which subjects us to laws, rules and regulations
applicable to advertising.

Indian advertising laws, rules and regulations, including the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the IT Act, require
advertisers to ensure that the content of the advertisements they prepare or distribute is fair and accurate and is in full
compliance with applicable law. Violation of these laws, rules or regulations may result in penalties, orders to cease
dissemination of the advertisements and orders to publish corrective information. Complying with these
requirements and failure to comply may increase our costs and could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

46. We have not entered into any definitive arrangements to utilize certain portions of the Net Proceeds of the Offer.
Our funding requirements and deployment of the Net Proceeds of the Offer are based on management estimates
and have not been independently appraised.

We intend to use the net proceeds of the Offer for the purposes described in the section titled “Objects of the Offer”
on page 120. The objects of the Offer and our funding requirement is based on management estimates and have not
been appraised by any bank or financial institution. These are based on current conditions and are subject to changes
in external circumstances or costs, or in other financial condition, business or strategy, as discussed further below.
Our management, in accordance with the policies established by our Board of Directors from time to time, will have
flexibility in deploying the Net Proceeds of the Offer. Based on the competitive nature of our industry, we may have
to revise our business plan and/or management estimates from time to time and consequently our funding
requirements may also change. Our management estimates may differ from the value that would have been
determined by third party appraisals, which may require us to reschedule or reallocate our planned expenditure,
subject to applicable laws, and may have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial
condition. Accordingly, investors in the Equity Shares will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding
the application of the Net Proceeds. We may invest in our NBFC subsidiary which is proposed to be undertaken in
the form of either debt or equity, which will be determined by our Company at the time of making such investment
and has not been finalized as on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus.

Further, we will appoint a monitoring agency for monitoring the utilization of Net Proceeds in accordance with
Regulation 41 of the SEBI ICDR Regulations and the monitoring agency will submit its report to us on a quarterly
basis in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Further, the application of the Net Proceeds in our business
may not lead to an increase in the value of your investment. Various risks and uncertainties, including those set forth
in this section “Risk Factors”, may limit or delay our efforts to use the Net Proceeds to achieve profitable growth in
our business.

47. Our Company will not receive any proceeds from the Offer for Sale portion. The Selling Shareholders will receive
the net proceeds from the Offer for Sale portion.

59
The Offer consists of a Fresh Issue of up to [●] Equity Shares of face value of ₹1 each aggregating up to ₹5,500.00
million and an Offer for Sale of up to 20,685,800 Equity Shares of face value of ₹1each aggregating up to ₹[●]
million. The entire proceeds of the Offer for Sale, net of proportionate Offer expenses, will be received by each of
the Selling Shareholders, to the extent of its respective portion of Offered Shares, and will not result in any creation
of value for us or in respect of your investment in our Company. For details in relation to the Selling Shareholders,
see “The Offer” on page 68.

48. Our Registered and Corporate Office and all branch offices are situated on lands/in buildings that are not owned
by us. In the event that we lose such rights or are required to renegotiate arrangements for such rights, our
business, results of operations and financial condition may be affected.

Our Registered and Corporate Office and all of our branch offices are situated on lands/in buildings that have been
leased/licensed to us by third parties and are not owned by us. None of such lease/license transactions have been
undertaken with our Promoters, Directors or our related parties. For further details, see “Our Business – Property
and Facilities” on page 187. Termination of such lease/license arrangements or our failure to renew such agreements
on favorable conditions and in a timely manner, or at all, could require us to vacate such premises at short notice and
could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We cannot assure you that we will
be able to renew any such arrangements when the term of the original arrangement expires on similar terms or terms
reasonable for us. In the event that we are required to vacate our current premises, we would be required to make
alternative arrangements for new offices and other infrastructure and we cannot assure that the new arrangements
will be on commercially acceptable terms, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition. While we have not faced any instances of difficulties in negotiating our lease arrangements
or premature termination of existing lease agreements in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024,
2023 and 2022, there can be no assurance that such instances will not occur in the future. Any failure to identify
suitable premises for relocation of existing properties, if required, could have an adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

Further, any regulatory non-compliance by the landlords or adverse development relating to the landlords’ title or
ownership rights to such properties may entail significant disruptions to our operations, especially if we are forced to
vacate leased spaces following any such developments and expose us to reputation risks. Any adverse impact on the
title, ownership rights, development rights of the owners from whose premises we operate or breach of the
contractual terms of any lease and license agreements may affect our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

In addition, the deeds for our existing and future leased properties may not be adequately stamped. While we believe
that adequate stamp duty has been paid on our existing leased properties, such stamp duty may not be accepted as
evidence in a court of law, and we may be required to pay penalties for inadequate stamp duty.

49. Our related party transactions may increase in the future and we cannot assure you that these would be entered
into on favorable terms, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We have in the past entered into transactions with certain of our related parties and such related party transactions
may increase in the future. For details of our related party transactions, see “Offer Document Summary - Summary of
Related Party Transactions” on page 24.

All such transactions have, unless otherwise disclosed in the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements, been
entered into in accordance with Companies Act, 2013 and rules framed thereunder, including after taking necessary
consents and approvals from the board of directors and/or from the shareholders of the Company and at an arm’s
length basis. However, we cannot assure you that we could not have obtained more favorable terms had such
transactions been entered into with unrelated parties. Although all related party transactions that we may enter into
post-listing will be subject to board or shareholders’ approval, as necessary under the Companies Act and the SEBI
Listing Regulations, we cannot assure you that such transactions in the future, individually or in the aggregate, will
not have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

50. Any downgrade of our credit ratings may restrict our access to capital and thereby adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

Our business depends on our ability to obtain funds at competitive rates. The cost and availability of capital, among
other factors, is also dependent on our current and future results of operations and financial condition, our ability to
effectively manage risks, our brand and our credit ratings. We may not be able to avail of the requisite amount of
financing or obtain financing at competitive interest rates if we fail to have favorable results of operations. We had
been last rated by ICRA Limited in March 2024 for each of our short-term fund-based and non-fund based
instruments have been reaffirmed as A4+. While there has been no downgrade to our Company’s credit ratings
during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022, any downgrade made to our credit
ratings could lead to high borrowing costs and limit our access to capital and lending markets and, as a result, could
adversely affect our business. In addition, downgrades of our credit ratings could increase the possibility of
additional terms and conditions being added to any new or replacement financing arrangements. For more
information, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 380.
60
51. The grant of options in future under any employee stock option schemes by our Company will result in a charge
to our profit and loss account and may adversely impact our net income.

Our Company follows the Ind AS method of accounting for employee compensation cost on options granted which
could result in a charge to our Company’s profit and loss account. Under Ind AS, stock options are granted to the
employees under the stock option schemes. The cost of stock options granted to the employees (equity-settled
awards) of the Company are measured at the fair value of the options granted. For each stock option, the
measurement of fair value is performed on the grant date. The grant date is the date on which the Company and the
employees agree to the stock option scheme. The fair value so determined is revised only if the stock option scheme
is modified in a manner that is beneficial to the employees. This cost is recognized, together with a corresponding
increase in share-based payment reserves in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service
conditions are fulfilled in employee benefits expense. The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled
transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired
and the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The statement of
profit and loss expense or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the
beginning and end of that period and is recognized in employee benefits expense. In addition to the effect on the
profit and loss account, the exercise of vested stock options will dilute the interests of shareholders (as in the case of
any issuance of Equity Shares). For further information on ESOP schemes, see “Capital Structure – Employee Stock
Options Scheme of our Company” on page 110.

52. We cannot assure payment of dividends on the Equity Shares in the future and our ability to pay dividends in the
future will depend on our earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, capital
expenditures and restrictive covenants of our financing arrangements and we may not be able to pay dividends in
future.

Our Company has not declared dividends on our Equity Shares during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and
Fiscals 2024, 2023 and 2022. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon our future earnings,
financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditure requirements and restrictive
covenants under financing arrangements that we may enter into.

The declaration and payment of dividends will be recommended by our Board of Directors and approved by our
Shareholders, at their discretion, subject to the provisions of the Articles of Association and applicable law,
including the Companies Act, 2013. For details, see “Dividend Policy” on page 238. We may retain all future
earnings, if any, for use in the operations and expansion of the 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 and will depend on factors that our Board deems relevant, including among others, our future
earnings, financial condition, cash requirements, business prospects and any other financing arrangements. We
cannot assure you that we will be able to pay dividends in the future. Accordingly, realization of a gain on
Shareholders’ investments will depend on the appreciation of the price of the Equity Shares. There can be no
guarantee that our Equity Shares will appreciate in value.

53. Our Promoters will continue to retain significant shareholding in our Company after the Offer, which will allow
them to exercise significant influence over us.

After the completion of the Offer, our Promoters will hold approximately [●]% of our outstanding Equity Shares.
Accordingly, our Promoters will continue to exercise significant influence over our business and all matters
requiring shareholders’ approval, including the composition of our Board of Directors, the adoption of amendments
to our certificate of incorporation, the approval of mergers, strategic acquisitions or joint ventures or the sales of
substantially all of our assets, and the policies for dividends, lending, investments and capital expenditures. The
interests of our Promoters, as our Company’s significant shareholders, could be different from the interests of our
other Shareholders and their influence may result in change of management or control of our Company, even if such
a transaction may not be beneficial to our other Shareholders.

EXTERNAL RISK FACTORS

54. Any adverse development, slowdown in Indian economy, political or any other factors beyond our control may
have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our results of operations are affected by factors
influencing the Indian economy, as well as the economies of the regional markets in which we operate. Any
slowdown or perceived slowdown in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian economy, could
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of our Equity Shares.

Further, economic developments globally can have a significant impact on India. For instance, the global economy
has been negatively impacted by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Governments in the United States, United
Kingdom, and European Union have imposed sanctions on certain products, industry sectors, and parties in Russia.
The conflict could negatively impact regional and global financial markets and economic conditions, and result in
global economic uncertainty and increased costs of various commodities, raw materials, energy and transportation.
61
In addition, recent increases in inflation and interest rates globally, including in India, could adversely affect the
Indian economy. In case we are not able to react to adverse economic developments, sector-specific conditions and
cyclical trends in a flexible and appropriate way, business, results of operations and financial condition could be
adversely affected.

55. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application or interpretation of
corporate and tax laws, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and subject to change. Our business and
financial performance could be adversely affected by unfavorable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the
promulgation of new, laws, rules and regulations applicable to us and our business. Our business, results of
operations and financial condition may be adversely impacted, to the extent that we are unable to suitably respond to
and comply with any such changes in applicable law and policy. Any political instability in the countries in which
we operate, such as corruption, scandals and protests against certain economic reforms, which have occurred in the
past, could slow the pace of liberalization and deregulation. The rate of economic liberalization could change, and
specific laws and policies affecting foreign investment, currency exchange rates and other matters affecting
investment in India could change as well.

The GoI has passed new laws relating to social security, occupational safety, industrial relations and wages namely,
the Code on Social Security, 2020 (“Social Security Code”), the Occupational Safety, Health and Working
Conditions Code, 2020, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 and the Code on Wages, 2019, respectively which were
to take effect from April 1, 2021 (collectively, the “Labour Codes”). The GoI has deferred the effective date of
implementation of the respective Labour Codes, and they shall come into force from such dates as may be notified.
Different dates may also be appointed for the coming into force of different provisions of the Labour Codes. While
the rules for implementation under these codes have not been finalized, as an immediate consequence, the coming
into force of these codes could increase the financial burden on our Company, which may adversely impact our
profitability.

Further, the application of various Indian tax laws, rules and regulations to our business, currently or in the future, is
subject to interpretation by the applicable taxation authorities. For instance, the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act,
2019, a tax legislation issued by the Ministry of Finance, GoI, effective as of September 20, 2019, prescribes certain
changes to the income tax rate applicable to companies in India. According to this legislation, companies can
henceforth voluntarily opt in favor of a concessional tax regime (subject to no other special benefits/exemptions
being claimed), which reduces the basic rate of income tax payable to 22% subject to compliance with conditions
prescribed, from the erstwhile 25% or 30% depending upon the total turnover or gross receipt in the relevant period.
Any such future amendments may affect our other benefits such as loss of minimum alternate tax carry forward,
exemption for income earned by way of dividend from investments in other domestic companies and units of mutual
funds, exemption for interest received in respect of tax free bonds, and long-term capital gains on equity shares if
withdrawn by the statute in the future, and the same may no longer be available to us. Any adverse orders passed by
the appellate authorities/tribunals/courts would have an effect on our profitability. We have had instances where
orders by courts and tribunals have had an effect on our profitability. Further, the Government of India announced
the union budget for Fiscal 2024, pursuant to which the Finance Act, 2024 (“Finance Act”), has introduced various
amendments to taxation laws in India. As such, there can be no certainty on the impact that the Finance Act may
have on our business and operations or on the industry in which we operate.

56. Any adverse application or interpretation of the competition laws in India including the Competition Act, 2002, as
amended, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Competition Act, 2002, as amended (“Competition Act”), was enacted for the purpose of preventing practices
that have or are likely to have an appreciable adverse effect on competition (“AAEC”) in the relevant market in
India and mandates the Competition Commission of India (the “CCI”) to separate such practices. Under the
Competition Act, any formal or informal arrangement, understanding or action in concert, which causes or is likely
to cause an AAEC in India, is considered void and results in the imposition of substantial monetary penalties.
Further, any agreement among competitors which directly or indirectly involves the determination of purchase or
sale prices, limits or controls production, supply, markets, technical development, investment or provision of
services, shares the market or source of production or provision of services in any manner, including by way of
allocation of geographical area, type of goods or services or number of consumers in the relevant market in any other
similar way or directly or indirectly results in bid-rigging or collusive bidding is presumed to have an AAEC on
competition and is considered void.

The Competition Act also prohibits abuse of a dominant position by any enterprise. If it is proved that the
contravention committed by a company took place with the consent or connivance or is attributable to any neglect on
the part of any director, manager, secretary or other officer of such company, that person shall also be guilty of the
contravention and may be punished. The Competition Act was amended in April 2023 to, inter alia, increase the
scope of definition of anti-competitive agreements and empower the CCI to impose penalties based on a company’s
global turnover.

62
The Competition Act aims to, among other things, prohibit all agreements and transactions which may have an
AAEC on competition in India. The Competition Act also includes provisions in relation to combinations which
require any acquisition of shares, voting rights, assets or control or mergers or amalgamations, which cross the
prescribed asset and turnover based thresholds, to be mandatorily notified to and pre-approved by the CCI. While
certain agreements entered into by us could be within the purview of the Competition Act, the impact of the
provisions of the Competition Act on the agreements entered into by us cannot be predicted with certainty at this
stage. Further, the CCI has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any agreements, abusive conduct or
combination occurring outside India if such agreement, conduct or combination has an AAEC in India. In the event
we pursue an acquisition in the future, we may be affected, directly or indirectly, by the application or interpretation
of any provision of the Competition Act, or any enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI, or any adverse
publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI, or if any prohibition or substantial
penalties are levied under the Competition Act, it would adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition. The manner in which the Competition Act and the CCI affect the business environment in India
may also adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

57. Fluctuation in the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies may have an adverse effect on
the trading price of, and returns on, our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.

On listing, our Equity Shares will be quoted in Indian Rupees on the NSE and BSE. Any dividends in respect of our
Equity Shares will be paid in Indian Rupees and subsequently converted into the relevant foreign currency for
repatriation, if required. Any adverse movement in currency exchange rates during the time that it takes to undertake
such conversion may reduce the net dividend foreign investors receive. In addition, any adverse movement in
currency exchange rates during a delay in repatriating outside India the proceeds from a sale of Equity Shares, for
example, because of a delay in regulatory approvals that may be required for the sale of Equity Shares may reduce
the proceeds received by Equity Shareholders. For example, the exchange rate between the Rupee and the U.S.
dollar has fluctuated in recent years and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future, which may have a
material adverse effect on the trading price of our Equity Shares and returns on our Equity Shares, independent of
our operating results.

58. If inflation were to rise in India, we might not be able to increase the prices of our services at a proportional rate in order to
pass costs on to our customers and our profits might decline.

Inflation rates could be volatile, and we may face inflation in the future as India had witnessed in the past. Increasing inflation can
contribute to an increase in interest rates and increased costs to our business, including increased costs of salaries and other
operating expenses relevant to our business. Further, high inflation leading to higher interest rates may also lead to a slowdown in
the economy and adversely impact credit growth. Consequently, we may also be affected and fall short of business growth and
profitability. Fluctuations in inflation rates may make it more difficult for us to accurately estimate or control our costs. While the
Government of India through the RBI has previously initiated economic measures to combat high inflation rates, it is unclear
whether these measures will remain in effect, and there can be no assurance that Indian inflation levels will not rise in the future.
Any increase in inflation in India can increase our operating expenses, which we may not be able to pass on to our customers,
whether entirely or in part, and the same may adversely affect our business and financial condition. In particular, we might not be
able to reduce our costs or pass the increase in costs on to our customers. In such case, our business, results of operations and
financial condition may be adversely affected.

59. Investors may have difficulty enforcing foreign judgments in India against us or our management.

The Company is a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of India. A majority of our directors and executive
officers are residents of India and most of our assets are located in India. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect
service of process on us or such persons in jurisdictions outside of India, or to enforce against them judgments obtained in courts
outside of India predicated upon civil liabilities on us or such directors and executive officers under laws other than Indian Law.

India has reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters with only a limited number of
jurisdictions, such as the United Kingdom; however, no reciprocity has been established with the United States. In order to be
enforceable, a judgment from a jurisdiction with reciprocity must meet certain requirements of the Indian Code of Civil
Procedure, 1908 (the “Civil Code”). The Civil Code only permits the enforcement and execution of monetary decrees in the
reciprocating jurisdiction, not being in the nature of any amounts payable in respect of taxes, other charges, fines or penalties.
Judgments or decrees from jurisdictions which do not have reciprocal recognition with India cannot be enforced by proceedings
of execution in India. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any court in a non-reciprocating territory
for civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the general laws of the non-reciprocating territory, would not be
enforceable in India. Even if an investor obtained a judgment in such a jurisdiction against us, our officers or directors, it may be
required to institute a new proceeding in India and obtain a decree from an Indian court. However, the party in whose favor such
final judgment is rendered may bring a fresh suit in a competent court in India based on a final judgment that has been obtained in
a non-reciprocating territory within three years of obtaining such final judgment. Generally, there are considerable delays in the
disposal of suits by Indian courts. It is unlikely that a court in India would award damages on the same basis as a foreign court if
an action were to be brought in India. Further, it is unlikely that an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments if that court was
of the view that the amount of damages awarded was excessive or inconsistent with Indian practice. A party seeking to enforce a
foreign judgment in India is required to obtain prior approval from the RBI to repatriate any amount recovered. Any judgment in
a foreign currency would be converted into Indian Rupees on the date of the judgment and not on the date of the payment. We
cannot predict whether a suit brought in an Indian court will be disposed of in a timely manner or be subject to considerable
delays.

63
60. Financial instability in other countries may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets.

The Indian market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries,
including conditions in the United States, Europe and certain emerging economies in Asia. Financial turmoil in Asia,
Russia and elsewhere in the world in recent years has adversely affected the Indian economy. Any worldwide
financial instability may cause increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and, directly or indirectly,
adversely affect the Indian economy and financial sector and us.

Further, economic developments globally can have a significant impact on India. In particular, the global economy
has been negatively impacted by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Governments in the United States, United
Kingdom, and European Union have imposed sanctions on certain products, industry sectors, and parties in Russia.
The conflict could negatively impact regional and global financial markets and economic conditions, and result in
global economic uncertainty and increased costs of various commodities, raw materials, energy and transportation.
In addition, recent increases in inflation and interest rates globally, including in India, could adversely affect the
Indian economy. In addition, China is one of India’s major trading partners and there are rising concerns of a
possible slowdown in the Chinese economy as well as a strained relationship with India, which could have an
adverse impact on the trade relations between the two countries. Any significant financial disruption could have an
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

61. Any adverse revision to India’s debt rating could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

India’s sovereign debt rating could be adversely affected due to various factors, including changes in tax or fiscal
policy or a decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves, which are outside our control. Any adverse revisions to
India’s credit ratings by international rating agencies may adversely affect our ratings, terms on which we are able to
raise additional finances or refinance any existing indebtedness. This could have an adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition, ability to obtain financing for capital expenditures and the price of the
Equity Shares.

62. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as Indian GAAP, U.S. GAAP
and IFRS, which investors may be more familiar with and may consider material to their assessment of our
financial condition.

The Restated Consolidated Financial Information is prepared in accordance with Ind AS and restated in accordance
with requirements of Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Companies Act, 2013 (as amended), the SEBI ICDR
Regulations (as amended) and the Guidance Note on “Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019)” issued by
the ICAI. Ind AS differs in certain significant respects from Indian GAAP, IFRS, U.S. GAAP and other accounting
principles with which prospective investors may be familiar in other countries. We have not attempted to quantify
their impact of US GAAP or IFRS on the financial data included in this Red Herring Prospectus nor do we provide a
reconciliation of our financial statements to those of US GAAP or IFRS. US GAAP and IFRS differ in significant
respects from Ind AS. Prospective investors should review the accounting policies applied in the preparation of our
financial statements, and consult their own professional advisers for an understanding of the differences between
these accounting principles and those with which they may be more familiar. Any reliance by persons not familiar
with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in this Red Herring Prospectus should be
limited accordingly.

RISKS RELATING TO THE OFFER AND THE EQUITY SHARES

63. Subsequent to the listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to pre-emptive 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 Exchanges. 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 earnings 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 any of the Stock Exchanges, 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.

64
64. An investment in the Equity Shares is subject to general risks related to investments in Indian companies.

We are incorporated in India and a majority of our assets and employees are located in India. Consequently, our
business, results of operations and financial condition and the market price of the Equity Shares will be affected by
changes in interest rates in India, policies of the Government of India, including taxation policies along with policies
relating to industry, political, social and economic developments affecting India.

65. Any future issuance of our Equity Shares or convertible securities or other equity linked instruments by our
Company may dilute prospective investors’ shareholding, and sales of our Equity Shares by our major
shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.

We may be required to finance our growth through future equity offerings. Any future equity that we issue,
including a primary offering, may lead to the dilution of investors’ shareholdings in us. Any future issuances of
Equity Shares or the disposal of Equity Shares by our major shareholders or the perception that such issuance or
sales may occur, may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares, which may lead to other adverse
consequences including difficulty in raising capital through offering of the Equity Shares or incurring additional
debt. There can be no assurance that we will not issue further Equity Shares or that the shareholders will not dispose
of the Equity Shares. Any future issuances could also dilute the value of your investment in the Equity Shares. In
addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur may also affect the market price of the
Equity Shares.

66. The determination of the Price Band is based on various factors and assumptions and the Offer Price of the
Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares after the Offer.

The determination of the Price Band is based on various factors and assumptions and will be determined by our
Company in consultation with the BRLMs. Further, the Offer Price of the Equity Shares will be determined by our
Company in consultation with the Book Running Lead Managers through the Book Building Process. These will be
based on numerous factors, including factors as described under “Basis for Offer Price” beginning on page 132 and
may not be indicative of the market price for the Equity Shares after the Offer. The factors that could affect the
market price of the Equity Shares include, among others, broad market trends, financial performance and results of
our Company post-listing, and other factors beyond our control. We cannot assure you that an active market will
develop or sustained trading will take place in the Equity Shares or provide any assurance regarding the price at
which the Equity Shares will be traded after listing.

67. QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders 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 a bid, and Retail Individual Bidders are not
permitted to withdraw their bids after bid/offer closing date.

Pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Regulations, QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders are required to block the bid amount
on submission of the bid and 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 a bid. Similarly, Retail Individual Bidders can revise or withdraw
their bids at any time during the bid/offer period and until the bid/offer closing date, but not thereafter. Therefore,
QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders will not be able to withdraw or lower their bids following adverse developments
in international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic conditions, our business, results of
operations, cash flows or otherwise at any stage after the submission of their bids.

68. Holders of Equity Shares may be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian law and
thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position.

Under the Companies Act, a company incorporated in India must offer its equity shareholders pre-emptive rights to
subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of equity shares to maintain their existing ownership percentages prior
to issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have been waived by the adoption of a special
resolution by holders of three- fourths of the equity shares voting on such resolution. However, if the law of the
jurisdiction the investors are located in does not permit the exercise of such pre-emptive rights without our filing an
offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in such jurisdiction, investors will be
unable to exercise such pre-emptive rights unless we make such a filing. If we elect not to file a registration
statement, the new securities may be issued to a custodian, who may sell the securities for investor’s benefit. The
value such custodian receives on the sale of any such securities and the related transaction costs cannot be predicted.
To the extent that investors are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in respect of our Equity Shares, their
proportional equity interests in us may be reduced.

69. A third party could be prevented from acquiring control of our Company because of anti-takeover provisions
under Indian law.

There are provisions in Indian law that may delay, deter or prevent a future takeover or change in control of our
Company. Under the SEBI Takeover Regulations, an acquirer has been defined as any person who, directly or
indirectly, acquires or agrees to acquire shares or voting rights or control over a company, whether individually or
acting in concert with others. Although these provisions have been formulated to ensure that interests of
65
investors/shareholders are protected, these provisions may also discourage a third party from attempting to take
control of our Company. Consequently, even if a potential takeover of our Company would result in the purchase of
the Equity Shares at a premium to their market price or would otherwise be beneficial to its stakeholders, it is
possible that such a takeover would not be attempted or consummated because of the SEBI Takeover Regulations.

70. The Offer Price of our Equity Shares, price-to-earnings ratio, enterprise value to EBIDTA ratio and market
capitalization to revenue from continuing operations may not be indicative of the trading price of the Equity
Shares upon listing on the Stock Exchanges subsequent to the Offer and, as a result, you may lose a significant
part or all of your investment.

Our Offer Price, the multiples and ratios specified above may not be comparable to the market price, market
capitalization and price-to-earnings ratios of our peers and would be dependent on the various factors included under
“Basis for Offer Price” beginning on page 132.

Accordingly, any valuation exercise undertaken for the purposes of the Offer by our Company in consultation with
the BRLMs, would not be based on a benchmark with our industry peers. The relevant financial parameters on the
basis of which Price Band will be determined, have been disclosed under “Basis for Offer Price” on page 132 and
shall be disclosed in the price band advertisement. For details of comparison with listed peers, please see “Basis for
Offer Price” on page 132.

71. You may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of our Equity Shares.

Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares in an
Indian company is generally taxable in India. A securities transaction tax (“STT”) is levied on and collected by an
Indian stock exchange on which equity shares are sold. Any gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for
more than 12 months may be subject to long-term capital gains tax in India at the specified rates depending on
certain factors, such as STT paid, the quantum of gains and any available treaty exemptions. Accordingly, you may
be subject to payment of long-term capital gains tax in India, in addition to payment of STT, on the sale of any
Equity Shares held for more than 12 months. Further, any gain realized on the sale of our Equity Shares held for a
period of 12 months or less will be subject to short-term capital gains tax in India. While non-residents may claim
tax treaty benefits in relation to such capital gains income, generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit India’s right to
impose tax on capital gains arising from the sale of shares of an Indian company.

Pursuant to the Finance Act, 2020 and after March 31, 2020, dividends declared, distributed or paid by a domestic
company would not be exempt in the hands of both resident and non-resident shareholders and are subject to tax
deduction at source. Our Company may or may not grant the benefit of a tax treaty (where applicable) to a non-
resident shareholder for the purposes of deducting tax at source pursuant to any corporate action including dividends.
Further, the Finance Act, 2019 introduced new provisions under the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, which provide that in
the absence of a specific provision under an agreement, the liability to pay stamp duty in case of sale of securities
through stock exchanges will be on the buyer, while in other cases of transfer for consideration through a depository,
the onus will be on the transferor. The stamp duty for transfer of securities other than debentures, on a delivery basis
is specified at 0.015% and on a non-delivery basis is specified at 0.003% of the consideration amount.

66
We cannot predict whether any tax laws or other regulations impacting it will be enacted, or predict the nature and
impact of any such laws or regulations or whether, if at all, any laws or regulations would have a material adverse
effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

72. Foreign investors are subject to foreign investment restrictions under Indian law that limits our ability to attract
foreign investors, which may adversely impact the market price of the Equity Shares.

As an Indian company, we are subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign currencies, including
those specified under FEMA and the rules thereunder. 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 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.

Shareholders who seek to convert Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign currency and repatriate
that foreign currency from India require a no-objection or a tax clearance certificate from the Indian income tax
authorities. We cannot assure you that any required approval from the RBI or any other governmental agency can be
obtained on any particular terms, or at all. Further, in accordance with Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April
17, 2020 issued by the DPIIT as consolidated in the FDI Policy with effect from October 15, 2020, and the Foreign
Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) Amendment Rules, 2020 which came into effect from April 22,
2020, any investment, subscription, purchase or sale of equity instruments by entities of a country which share a land
border with India or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such
country, will require prior approval of the Government of India. Any such approval(s) would be subject to the
discretion of the regulatory authorities. Restrictions on foreign investment activities and impact on our ability to
attract foreign investors may cause uncertainty and delays in our future investment plans and initiatives. We cannot
assure you that any required approval from the relevant governmental agencies can be obtained on any particular
terms or at all. Further, if our Company ceases to be “owned and controlled” by resident Indian entities, we will be
subject to additional investment and exit restrictions under the FDI Policy and the FEMA.

73. Your ability to acquire and sell Equity Shares is restricted by the distribution and transfer restrictions set forth in
this Red Herring Prospectus.

No actions have been taken to permit a public offering of the Equity Shares in any jurisdiction, other than India. As
such, the Equity Shares have not and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act, any state securities laws or
the law of any jurisdiction other than India. Further, the Equity Shares are subject to restrictions on transferability
and resale. You are required to inform yourself about and observe these restrictions. We, our representatives and our
agents will not be obligated to recognize any acquisition, transfer or resale of the Equity Shares made other than in
compliance with the restrictions set forth herein.

74. Investors will not be able to sell immediately on an Indian stock exchange any of the Equity Shares they purchase
in the Offer.

The Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchanges. Pursuant to applicable Indian laws, certain actions must be
completed before the Equity Shares can be listed and trading in the Equity Shares may commence. Investors’ book
entry, or ‘demat’ accounts with depository participants in India, are expected to be credited within one working day
of the date on which the Basis of Allotment is approved by the Stock Exchanges. Trading in the Equity Shares upon
receipt of final listing and trading approvals from the Stock Exchanges is expected to commence within three
Working Days or such number of Working Days as prescribed by SEBI. There could be a failure or delay in listing
of the Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges. Any failure or delay in obtaining the approval or otherwise commence
trading in the Equity Shares would restrict investors’ ability to dispose of their Equity Shares. There can be no
assurance that the Equity Shares will be credited to investors’ demat accounts, or that trading in the Equity Shares
will commence, within the time periods specified in this risk factor. We could also be required to pay interest at the
applicable rates if allotment is not made, refund orders are not dispatched or demat credits are not made to investors
within the prescribed time periods.

75. Rights of shareholders of companies under Indian law may be different compared to the laws of other
jurisdictions.

Our Articles of Association, composition of our Board, Indian laws governing our corporate affairs, the validity of
corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties, responsibilities and liabilities, and shareholders’ rights may differ
from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction. Shareholders’ rights under Indian law may not be
as extensive and widespread as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may
face challenges in asserting their rights as a shareholder in an Indian company than as a shareholder of an entity in
another jurisdiction.

Employee Reservation Portion shall be added to the Net Offer. For further details, see “Offer Structure” on page 413. Unless the Employee
Reservation Portion is under-subscribed, the value of allocation to an Eligible Employee Bidding in the Employee Reservation Portion shall not exceed
₹0.20 million. In the event of under-subscription in the Employee Reservation Portion (if any), the unsubscribed portion will be available for allocation
and Allotment, proportionately to all Eligible Employees who have Bid in excess of ₹0.20 million, subject to the maximum value of Allotment made to
such Eligible Employee not exceeding ₹0.50 million (net of Employee Discount). The unsubscribed portion, if any, in the Employee Reservation Portion

The fund requirements, the deployment of funds and the intended use of the Net Proceeds as described in this section are based on
our current business plan, management estimates, market conditions and other external commercial and technical factors.
However, such fund requirements and deployment of funds have not been appraised by any bank, or financial institution. We may
have to revise our funding requirements and deployment schedule on account of a variety of factors such as timing of completion
of the Offer, our financial and market condition, our management’s estimates of economic trends and business requirements,
business and strategy, retention and changing preferences of truck operators, negotiation with lenders, variation in cost estimates
and other external factors such as changes in the business environment and interest or exchange rate fluctuations, which may not
be within the control of our management. This may entail rescheduling or revising the planned expenditure and funding
requirements, including the expenditure for a particular purpose at the discretion of our management, subject to compliance with
applicable laws.

In case of a shortfall in the Net Proceeds towards meeting the Objects, we may explore a range of options including utilising our
internal accruals and availing additional borrowings. In the event that the estimated utilization of the Net Proceeds in a scheduled
fiscal year is not completely met, due to the reasons stated above, the same shall be utilised in the next fiscal year, as may be
determined by our Company, in accordance with applicable laws. If the actual utilisation towards any of the Objects is lower than
the proposed deployment such balance will be used towards general corporate purposes within the permissible limits in
accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations.

Further, in order to utilise the Net Proceeds for the proposed Objects, we may invest in Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited, our
Company’s NBFC subsidiary, which is proposed to be undertaken in the form of either debt or equity, which will be determined
by our Company at the time of making such investment and has not been finalized as on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus.
We believe that the said investments by our Company in our Subsidiary will result in increase in the value of the investment for
our Company and will be in furtherance of our growth strategies.

Our historical spends in sales and marketing have been primarily funded from capital raised through equity infusion in
the past and may not be fully reflective of our future growth plans and new developments in relation to this object. Our
sales and marketing strategy and deployment of marketing and advertising campaigns as well as brand building
initiatives in any particular media segment or through any particular channel or platform is contingent on various internal
and external factors, such as the nature of the advertising campaign or expected viewership of our advertisements in
different geographies or user segments, our business requirements and sales and marketing plans overall. Further,
maintaining and improving upon our sales and marketing strategies involves expenditures which may not be
proportionate to the revenue generated and users acquired.

Our consumer engagement and marketing capabilities have translated into a strong usage and retention of our offerings
and services which can be observed in our revenue retention cohort. Further, as we added more offerings to our platform,
we have been able to grow our customer base of annual transacting truck operators from 482,446 in Fiscal 2022 to
963,345 in Fiscal 2024. We have also been able to increase our base of average monthly transacting truck operators to
687,994 as at June 30, 2024 from 5,56,437 as at June 30, 2023. Moreover, as truck operators utilize more of our
services, the platform gathers additional data, empowering us to refine our solutions and identify cross-selling
opportunities. This, in turn, bolsters the platform’s appeal to truck operators, fostering their loyalty and increasing their
engagement. For further details, see “Our Business – Strong network effects of platform resulting in robust customer
retention rates and higher monetization” on page 167.

Proposed utilisation of Net Proceeds

In view of the above, we intend to continue our sales and marketing spends to further reinforce and create higher
visibility of our existing offering portfolio, as well as for the offerings that we may develop and offer to our users in the
future. Our Company undertakes sales and marketing through its omnichannel approach of physical and digital
marketing initiatives. For deploying such physical marketing initiatives, our Company incurs expenditure towards
incurring on-roll and off-roll sales personnel cost and payment of service fees to channel partners and marketing
agencies. Similarly, for digital marketing initiatives, our Company incurs expenditure towards digital brand building and
presence in digital media across social media platforms and search platforms.
123
Our Company intends to expand its on-roll sales and off-roll sales and marketing team, increase its pool of outsourced
payroll contracts and channel partners and continue to engage with agencies and social media platforms to deepen its
distribution base and increase the density of its distribution in key strategic pockets across India, where its proportionate
market shares are lower, such as Gujarat, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu. Further, our Company intends to continue to
leverage our domain expertise, data-led insights, and technology capabilities to continuously iterate and expand our suite
of products and services, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of addressing the evolving needs of the trucking
ecosystem.

The breakup of these sales and marketing expenses for which Net Proceeds are proposed to be utilised for Financial
Years 2025, 2026 and 2027 is provided below:

The above workings are based on our management’s estimates and internal business requirements.

The expenses in relation to sales and marketing are disclosed as business promotion and advertisement, manpower
services, salaries and wages in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. For details, see “Restated Consolidated
Financial Information” on page 239.

However, our deployment of sales and marketing initiatives are contingent on various factors, such as nature of digital
campaigns, expected viewership of our videos, marketing campaigns, management estimates, current circumstances of
our business, prevailing market conditions our Company’s business and marketing plans. Accordingly, we may choose
to spend more for incurring any of the on-roll sales personnel cost, off-roll sales personnel cost, sales and marketing
agency costs and digital marketing costs or less for incurring any of these costs, or vice versa, subject to the overall
deployment of ₹2,000 million from the Net Proceeds for sales and marketing purpose. Any additional expenses during or
beyond the proposed utilisation period which may be incurred by our Company towards these expenses would be funded
through other avenues including further infusion of capital, external borrowings, internal accruals of the Company, or
means other than the Net Proceeds.

3. Funding of expenditure in relation to product development

As a digital platform for truck operators, we are on a mission to digitally empower India’s truck operators, helping them
manage their business and grow their income. We leverage technology to provide and cater to the unique needs of truck
operators in India. We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of customers), with
0.96 million truck operators (comprising 27.52% of India’s truck operators) in the country transacting on our platform in
Fiscal 2024 (Source: RedSeer Report). Using our platform, our customers (truck operators) digitally manage payments
for tolling and fueling, monitor drivers and fleets using telematics, find loads on our marketplace and get access to
financing for the purchase of used vehicles.

Our customer base of 9,63,345 truck operators as of March 31, 2024 provides our Company with an opportunity to offer
new products to existing customers and develop newer offerings by leveraging data and insight into the day-to-day
operations of truck operators. With the scale of real-time data collection continuing to increase and our aim to introduce
new products and offerings which will create value for customers, we intend to continue to invest in our product
development capabilities. For instance, in the last three financial years, we launched our brokerage businesses, loads
marketplace, vehicle financing, and telematics.

Our platform architecture follows the principles of a service-oriented architecture, comprising small, maintainable and
scalable building blocks to provide users with a high uptime, and a light and fast application. This approach allows us to
support multiple business models, execute new initiatives and achieve operational efficiency gains across our offerings.

Our monthly transacting customers are active on the BlackBuck App for more than 16.18 days in a month and on an
average spend 39.56 minutes daily. Our Company had 597,638 monthly transacting truck operators on Blackbuck App in
Fiscal 2024 as compared to 458,025 users in Fiscal 2023 and 261,304 users in Fiscal 2022. Further, our Company had
687,994 average monthly transacting truck operators on Blackbuck App for the three months period ended June 30, 2024
as compared to 5,56,437 users for the three months period ended June 30, 2024.

In this context our Company is in constant lookout for skilled personnel and ensures retention thereof. Accordingly, due
to the competition for skilled technology and data personnel in the Indian market, and specifically in the industry in
which our Company operates, hiring and retaining appropriate personnel requires significant infusion of funds and
resources by our Company.

Our endeavour is to continuously innovate for our customer base and build new service offerings. For instance, in the
last three financial years, we launched our brokerage businesses, loads marketplace, vehicle financing, and telematics.
This needs us to invest in teams which work on new business initiatives and new product development. We have
dedicated “Category Teams” on new business initiatives which focuses on innovations through primary and secondary
research and continuous iteration of offerings that have helped truck operators to operate their business effectively and
efficiently. We have technology teams with specific qualifications inter alia in engineering, technology and coding
which translate these innovations into technology products on our digital platform which can be then distributed through
our omnichannel distribution teams. We intend to increase the members in our product development team and Category
Team.

Our Company offers a set of tailored product offerings aimed to simplify operations and improve efficiency for our truck
operators, and in order to be able to maintain such an experience at increasing scale of operations and continuously
improve the customer experience on our platform. Our Company from time to time keep updating the BlackBuck App
and its backend support. This needs investments into technology and innovation based on customer experience and
feedback. Determining the technological feasibility and estimating future economic benefits from expenditure on product
development is uncertain and accordingly they are expensed to profit and loss account and not capitalised.

development teams, and Category Teams in the three months period ended June 20, 2024 and June 30, 2023 and Fiscal

G. Description on the historic use of the KPIs by our Company to analyse, track or monitor the operational and/or
financial performance of our Company

In evaluating our business, we consider and use certain KPIs, as presented above, as a supplemental measure to review
and assess our financial and operating performance. The presentation of these KPIs are not intended to be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. We use these KPIs to evaluate our
financial and operating performance. Some of these KPIs are not defined under Ind AS and are not presented in
accordance with Ind AS. These KPIs have limitations as analytical tools. Further, these KPIs may differ from the similar
information used by other companies and hence their comparability may be limited. Therefore, these metrics should not
be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to Ind AS measures of performance or as an indicator of our
operating performance, liquidity, profitability or results of operation. Although these KPIs are not a measure of
performance calculated in accordance with applicable accounting standards, our Company’s management believes that it

135
provides an additional tool for Bidders to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing
our financial results with other companies in our industry because it provides consistency and comparability with past
financial performance, when taken collectively with financial measures prepared in accordance with Ind AS.

Bidders are encouraged to review the Ind AS financial measures and to not rely on any single financial or operational
metric to evaluate our business. See “Risk Factors – Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting
principles, such as Indian GAAP, U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which investors may be more familiar with and may consider
material to their assessment of our financial condition.” on page 64.

MACROECONOMIC CONTEXT

Infrastructure is a key pillar of the Indian economy which is projected to grow at 6.6% between 2023 and 2028. Growth in
infrastructure investment is boosting the logistics sector, which is outpacing GDP growth. As a result, road transportation in
India (which drives 46% of logistics as of Fiscal 2024) is witnessing the most significant impact of these macroeconomic
developments.

In India, logistics is growing faster than the GDP due to its integral role in infrastructure development.

India, the fifth largest economy globally, had a real gross domestic product (“GDP”) of ₹160 trillion (US$ 1.9 trillion) in
2023, according to the International Monetary Fund IMF. Projected to maintain a Compounded Annual Growth Rate
(“CAGR”) of 6.6% from 2023 to 2028, India is expected to reach an economy size of ₹220 trillion (US$ 2.7 trillion) by 2028.
The World Economic Forum projects India to become the third-largest economy in the world by 2027.

Exhibit 1

Real GDP of India (vs. global benchmarks)

LHS: India’s real GDP in ₹ trillion 2019-28P; RHS – Real GDP growth 2023-28P %

Source(s): IMF, Press Information Bureau (PIB)

Infrastructure development plays a crucial role in India's growth, fostering efficiency, productivity, and attracting foreign
investments. Research by the Reserve Bank of India and the National Institute of Public Finance and Policy reveals that every
₹100 invested in capital expenditure yields a ₹245 increase in GDP. In line with this, the Union Budget 2024-25 earmarked
₹11.11 trillion (US$134 billion) for infrastructure development.

Logistics is a key beneficiary of push on the infrastructure investment. Logistics in India has been significantly unorganized
hence makes up 11-13% of the Indian GDP as of Fiscal 2024. Following are the reasons for the same:

145
• Infrastructural challenges: Poor road conditions, older road networks and slower transportation speed contributes to
increased spend in logistics

• Structural inefficiencies: Fragmentation and intermediary networks in the trucking industry lead to inefficiencies and
higher costs.

• Lack of adoption of technology: Limited use of digital technology results in lower operational efficiency

However, the sector is transforming rapidly.

• Infrastructure Development: Initiatives like Bharatmala, Gati Shakti, and Dedicated Freight Corridors are creating an
extensive and efficient transportation network. The Bharatmala program, launched in 2017, focuses on developing
34,800 km of National Highway corridors, linking over 580 districts. Gati Shakti prioritizes corridor-based
infrastructure development to facilitate faster and more efficient transportation.

• Digitization and Tech deployment: Innovations like FASTags, digital fuel cards and e-way bills, along with
regulatory mandates, have optimized logistics workflows, enhancing efficiency. Emergence of companies optimizing
demand and supply through digital infrastructure are witnessing increasing adoption because of the services offered

• Regulatory Reforms: Government reforms promoting digital adoption have further transformed the logistics sector.
India's Logistics Performance Index score has improved from 3.07 to 3.4 between 2007 and 2023, indicating the
sector's growth and efficiency. The Indian government has implemented AIS 140, requiring the compulsory
installation of tracking devices in specific trucks. Adoption of these devices has led to optimized truck utilization. As
a result, logistics in India is outpacing GDP growth.

Applied Economic Research (NCAER) Report

Road transport dominates logistics in India, forming the bulk of logistical expenses and emerging as the largest and most
significant mode of transportation.

Logistics includes warehousing, transportation costs and administrative expenses. Transportation accounts for the bulk of the
expenses and accounts for nearly 66% of logistical expenses as of Fiscal 2024, with road transport being the preferred mode
for various industries. India has witnessed a transformation from rail to road transportation since 1950’s. Roads paved the
way for increasing consumption of India as they become a primary mode of transfer of retail goods. Other modes were unable
to scale as per the increasing requirements which led to increasing dependence on roads in India. As a result, the share of
freight transportation via roads increased to close to 70% in Fiscal 2019.

Key factors driving road transport's dominance include:

• Expansion of capacity: There has been significant growth in the number of trucks on the road as well as load
carrying capacity of trucks (by up to 25% as per Government of India’s revised regulations in 2018), facilitating
more freight movement.

• Higher demand: Rapid urbanization has created a demand for freight movement, where roads offer point-to-point
connectivity.
146
• Infrastructure development: Government and private initiatives have bolstered road infrastructure, with a focus on
four-lane highways and above.

India boasts the second-largest road network globally, totaling approximately 6.671 million km as of November 2023. The
pace of national highway construction has accelerated, with an increase from 12.1 km/day in Fiscal 2015 to 34 km/day in
Fiscal 2024. Budgetary allocations for Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (“MoRTH”) and National Highways
Authority of India (“NHAI”) saw a 2.7% increase between Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2024, further increasing to ₹2.78 trillion
for MoRTH, including ₹1.68 trillion for NHAI between Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2025.

Hence, road transport stands as the backbone of the country's logistics. The preference for road transport reflects its
adaptability, accessibility, and flexibility, aligning with the diverse needs of businesses and industries across the country.
Moreover, India's commitment to continuous development, policy reforms, and technological advancements further augurs
well for the future of road transport, offering ample opportunities for growth and innovation. As the nation continues its
trajectory of economic growth and industrial development, the significance of road transport is poised to remain paramount,
driving efficiency, connectivity, and economic prosperity nationwide, while unlocking new avenues for further expansion and
enhancement.

INDIAN TRUCKING LANDSCAPE

Investments and efficiency improvements are propelling India's trucking market, expected to grow at an 8-9% CAGR from
Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2028. The industry has a widespread presence across India, however, is fragmented. Government
reforms aim to digitize this traditionally cash-driven industry, addressing long-standing inefficiencies.

Trucking is one of the fastest-growing sectors in logistics in India.

The Indian trucking industry stands as a vital component of the nation's logistics sector. With approximately 12.5 million
trucks and about 3.5 million truck operators as of Fiscal 2024 traversing Indian roads, the total freight value through trucks
has witnessed a steady growth rate of 8-9% CAGR over the past four years. This growth trajectory is expected to persist over
the next four years, driven by several key factors:

• Higher consumption: The anticipated increase in per-capita income is poised to drive heightened levels of
consumption, consequently increasing the demand for logistics and transportation services.

• Expansion of capacity on high-density routes: Roads have seen an increase in capacity on high density routes,
necessitated by the growing production of trucks. This has enabled a surge in freight movement along these routes.

• Development of supporting infrastructure and ecosystem: Roads have benefitted from both government and
private sector initiatives. The private sector has played a significant role in producing commercial vehicles,
anticipating future demand. Construction of highways with a focus on four-lane roads and above, have been

147
undertaken to accommodate the increasing volume of vehicles. As per MoRTH, four-lane highways have increased
at a rate of approximately 10% from Fiscal 2014 to Fiscal 2023. This directly improves the efficiency and utilization
of trucks.

• Vehicle Scrappage Policy: The Government of India introduced vehicle scrappage policies in 2021. As per
MoRTH, commercial vehicles older than 15 years must pass a fitness test. In case they fail, the vehicle shall be
deemed unfit and will be scrapped. As a result, newer vehicle will have to be purchased by truck operators if current
vehicles fail to meet the fitness test, leading to overall increase in the total number of trucks on the roads.

India’s growing economy needs the support of robust logistical capabilities and small and medium size truck operators are the
backbone of logistics in the country. These truck operators are served through value chains which are unorganized and
fragmented, making their operations inefficient.

Trucking is a highly fragmented industry.

Trucking in India is highly fragmented in nature, with 75% of truck operators having less than 5 trucks. This pattern of
fragmentation is visible in trucking across the globe. For instance, in China, 85% of trucks are owned by truck operators with
less than five trucks. Similarly, the US has 80% of truck operators owning less than six trucks.

High fragmentation in this industry is a result of multiple operationally complex processes required to run the business
efficiently. Truck operators need to be actively involved in searching for loads for their trucks, managing payments,
monitoring their truck movement, carrying out maintenance activities, managing drivers, taking care of working capital,
amongst various other activities.

Significant percentage of truck operators in India rely on professional drivers to run their vehicles. This means that truck
operators need to manage their operations remotely, which makes their task even more complex. As the number of trucks
increases, the need for operator’s control escalates exponentially. Given the complexity of trucking operations, an operator’s
oversight can significantly impact profitability. Consequently, managing ownership beyond a few trucks becomes
increasingly cumbersome, leading to this industry being fragmented even globally.

Trucking industry is a Bharat (Pan-India but driven by Tier 2+ India) phenomenon extending across all geographies of the
country.

Trucking in India transcends the urban landscapes of metro and tier 1 cities, extending its reach into the rural heartlands.
While urban centers drive higher consumption, rural areas, home to 65-70% of the country's population, constitute a vital
market for goods and services. Agriculture, the backbone of India's economy, further underscores the importance of trucking
as a lifeline connecting disparate regions. With diverse crops cultivated across the country, the transportation network plays a
pivotal role in distributing agricultural produce to markets far and wide. Moreover, the strategic positioning of industries,
factories, and manufacturing units in areas abundant in raw materials and labor, often distant from major urban hubs,
accentuates the need for robust transportation infrastructure. As per VAHAN approximately 80% of trucks are registered
across 80% of sq. km area of India. This large breadth of distribution, as opposed to being a concentrated distribution, clearly
indicates the extensive geographic spread of truckers in the country.

Truck operators in India are spread across metro, urban and rural communities. A typical truck operator in India is middle-
aged, fluent in the local vernacular language, has low digital literacy and uses a limited set of smartphone applications. They
have lower digital literacy and are not accepting of online products, especially in relation to payments. Hence, building trust
with such truck operators on digital platforms requires significant handholding.

148
Multiple government initiatives have focused on introducing digital reforms to transform the trucking industry in India.

At a policy level, there is a clear realization regarding the value and prosperity that can be unlocked by digitizing transactions,
introducing more efficiencies and fostering transparency in trucking operations in India. Below are some of the noteworthy
initiatives towards this transformation:

• Electronic tolling: The government's implementation of FASTags has digitally transformed the tolling system,
achieving 98% penetration by March 24 in toll collection. This move aims to modernize the cash-based industry,
curbing leakages and enhancing efficiency by minimizing congestion and travel time on roads. Moreover, the
transition to digital payments has spurred growth in toll payments through the NETC platform, with 3.5-4 billion
transactions in Fiscal 2024.

• Mandatory GPS requirement: In India, the implementation of the Automotive Industry Standard (“AIS”) 140
protocol has been pivotal in mandating the installation of GPS devices in trucks requiring fitness certificates and
specific mining permissions to improve safety, security and compliance. This regulatory requirement has
significantly increased the adoption of telematics devices within the trucking industry, enhancing monitoring
capabilities and promoting operational efficiency.

• E-way bills: E-way bills ensure faster movement of goods and optimal vehicle utilization at check posts. With pre-
registration required online for goods over ₹50,000 and a single e-way bill system, transportation processes are
streamlined across the country. This eradicates the need for separate transit passes in each state, facilitating seamless
road freight transportation.

• National Logistics Policy: Government of India’s launch of the National Logistics Policy (“NLP”) aims to
revolutionize India's logistics sector, reducing costs from 11-13% of GDP to align with global standards. By
enhancing efficiency and lowering expenses, the policy will boost the competitiveness of Indian products globally.
Leveraging a holistic approach, the NLP integrates digital infrastructure, manpower, and policy reforms to create a
seamless logistics ecosystem.

Thus, the trucking industry in India presents a complex yet promising landscape. Characterized by fragmentation and
pervasive across the nation, facilitating the movement of goods even to the most remote corners. With rapid growth and
increasing adoption of digital tools, the industry is undergoing a transformative shift towards efficiency and transparency. In
this context, there are significant challenges that the Indian trucking ecosystem needs to solve. Solving these challenges
represents significant opportunities as we elaborate in the subsequent sections.

CHALLENGES FOR INDIAN TRUCKING INDUSTRY

The trucking industry grapples with structural challenges and inefficiencies throughout the truck operator’s journey. Issues
like ineffective monitoring, cash leakages, low accessibility and high intermediation increase the overall fulfillment costs
directly affecting their cost of operations.

The high logistics costs in India stems from inefficiencies in the trucking industry, which is evident in the challenges faced by
truck operators in their journey. The needs of the trucking industry are very specific and the truck operator's demography in
India is unique. The exhibit below highlights the key challenges:

Exhibit 5

Value chain of the trucking industry in India

Descriptive

149
Issue 1: Lower accessibility driven by high fragmentation

As mentioned earlier, truck operators are fragmented throughout India and aren't confined to specific regions, but they share
similar needs such as vehicle financing, tolling and fueling solutions, telematics etc. However, reaching out to all truckers
nationwide proves challenging, as it severely restricts the ability of companies to access and serve these truck operators
profitably through traditional means. As a result, this industry is largely serviced by unorganized players, which further
contributes to elevated costs for truck operators.

This is evident in the used commercial vehicle financing industry in India. Due to a lack of deep-rooted organized distribution
networks focused on servicing these truck operators across the country, unorganized financing constitutes 55-60% of used
commercial vehicle financing. These unorganized financiers charge exorbitantly high interest rates and take longer times for
conversion.

Issue 2: High intermediation leading to higher inefficiencies

Exhibit 6

Intermediary network in trucking industry

Descriptive

Source(s): Redseer analysis

High dependence on intermediaries to find shipments leads to significant hurdles in discovery and matching of loads between
shippers and truck operators. As a result, trucks in India spend on average 24-48 hours to find the next shipment, leading to
significantly high levels of under-utilization. Trucks in India only run for 18-20 days a month on the road while the rest of the
time is spent idling.

Matching of shippers and truckers traditionally takes place offline in remote transportation hubs. Shippers and truck operators
have diverse, complex and often non-standard needs. Load details are written on paper and matched with truck operators over
the phone or in person. The matching process for a truck operator’s truck with a load is complex due to the following reasons:

• Lack of aggregate information about loads/trucks in a particular transportation hub.

• Multiple variables in matching a load with a suitable truck (timing of load versus truck availability, truck type (open
body/container), tonnage, volume, truck floor (wooden/metal), length and width of truck and/or commodity type).

• A mismatch of pricing and payment terms between shippers and truck operators.

• Lane/route preferences of truck operators and drivers due to geographic familiarity, language constraints and return
load availability/freight pricing.

• Lack of trust in working with an unknown shipper/truck operator

On average, brokers impose a 3-8% commission for their services, thereby inflating costs and undermining the efficiency of
these transactions. A digital platform where truckers and shippers can directly interact would facilitate seamless
communication, enabling real-time matching of supply with demand, thereby reducing truck underutilization, and minimizing
lead times to secure loads. Through direct engagement, truck operators can bypass traditional brokers

Issue 3: Leakages due to cash handling

The trucking industry primarily operates on a cash basis for daily activities like fuelling, paying driver wages, and
maintaining vehicles. This cash-centric approach increases the risk of pilferage and unauthorized spending. Drivers may
inflate expenses to pocket the difference, leading to higher operational costs.

Exhibit 7

Source(s): Redseer estimates

High dependence on cash-handling increases leakages at all these touchpoints, ultimately reducing profitability for the truck
operators.

Issue 4: Lack of effective fleet monitoring:

Most of the operations of the truck operators are managed remotely. Hence, there is a significant lack of visibility in the day-
to-day activities of the trucks. This results in ineffective control, especially for fleet operators managing multiple vehicles,
who often remain unaware of their trucks' status once they are on the road. Monitoring driver activities and managing driving
behaviour are key concerns, as these factors directly impact safety and maintenance costs.

Ineffective fleet monitoring also leads to higher idling times for trucks, with a typical truck in India idling for nearly 10-12
days a month. Much of this delay is due to the inability to track extended idle periods at loading and unloading points, fueling
stations, repair shops, checkpoints, and rest stops in real-time. This lack of control over operations results in wastage and
under- utilization, ultimately reducing the overall profitability of trucking operations and increasing the cost of fulfilment.

Other Challenges:

Besides the aforementioned obstacles, truck operators encounter several challenges throughout their journeys, as outlined
below:

• Unorganized repairs & maintenance and consumables: OEM-affiliated garages typically source spare parts from the
OEM at higher prices than local alternatives. Lack of access to information leads to truck operators purchasing
essential items like spare parts, lubricants and tyres, either at a much higher cost or by compromising on quality.

• Lack of access to Insurance: While OEM-affiliated insurance companies offer contracts, truck operators may miss
out on better terms or lower premiums from other providers due to limited accessibility stemming from market
fragmentation.

• Working Capital Challenges: Accessing working capital for new truckers remains challenging, often requiring
reliance on personal contacts or unorganized money lenders who impose exorbitant interest rates.

• In-transit Driver and Goods Safety: Despite highway safety response numbers, truck operators often rely on each
other for assistance during emergencies. There is a growing demand for services dedicated to enhancing driver and
goods safety during transit.

OPPORTUNITIES IN THE INDIAN TRUCKING INDUSTRY

The trucking industry offers vast revenue potential for companies that solve challenges and inefficiencies and enhance value
for truck operators. Innovating digital products to tailor solutions for meeting truckers' specific needs and scaling these
offerings through strong distribution networks can unlock significant opportunities. The Indian trucking sector is a US$ 18-
25 billion revenue pool as of Fiscal 2024 and expected to be up to US$ 35 billion by Fiscal 2028.

The diagram below depicts the revenue potential within various opportunities in the trucking industry. These opportunities are
at different levels of maturity and are evolving and growing at varying rates. Globally, the trucking industry has seen the
emergence of multiple large new-age technology players, across several different segments. In the payments space,
companies such as Fleetcor, with revenues of approximately US$ 3.8 billion, Wex, with revenues of approximately US$ 2.6

151
billion and Edenred, with revenues of approximately EUR 2.5 billion (all revenues for 2023), have built sizeable businesses in
the USA and Europe. In telematics and advanced fleet management solutions, companies such as Samsara, which has
revenues of approximately US$ 0.9 billion for 2023, have developed as significant players. In China, FTA has built a loads
marketplace with revenues of approximately US$ 0.9 billion for 2023. These companies illustrate the advanced and sizeable
nature of the logistics sector in global markets.

Payments

Toll and Fuel payments constitute one of the largest outlays for truck operators. These expenses constitute almost
80% of the spending for a typical truck operator. Due to lack of visibility into these expenditures and cash-based
transactions, truck operators need digital solutions to manage these payments effectively. The total Payments
revenue pool is US$ 470-490 million and is expected to be US$ 850-910 million by Fiscal 2028 growing at 16-18%
CAGR. This opportunity is further segmented into two streams – tolling and fuelling.

a) Tolling

Electronic toll collection, led by FASTag, was mandated by the Government of India on December 1, 2019, across
all national highways in India. This mandate changed the way truck operators functioned because, prior to this,
digital payment adoption was low in the logistics industry. FASTag utilizes prepaid rechargeable tags equipped with
radio frequency identification technology, affixed to vehicle windshields for seamless toll collection. Market
penetration for FASTag reached 98% on Mar ‘24. Through the mandatory adoption of FASTags and the
discouragement of cash payments, which lead to penalty of double charges, India has successfully integrated a
digital tool into its predominantly cash-based ecosystem. Further, with the implementation of Global Navigation
Satellite System (“GNSS”), FASTag will witness better compliance while ensuring more seamless commute for
vehicles.

Exhibit 9

Source(s): MoRTH

The trucking segment contributed to over 75% of the total toll collections in India in Fiscal 2024, driven by higher toll fares
for trucks and high frequency of movement on toll highways as compared to passenger vehicles. This makes a truck operator
a significant tolling user who spends the highest in tolls (an average of ₹16,000 – ₹18,000 per month in Fiscal 2024) and uses
the tolling service the most frequently (average 50 swipes per month in Fiscal 2024).

Source(s): National Electronic Toll Collection (NETC), MoRTH, Redseer estimates

The revenue generated from the tolling extends beyond commission fees on FASTags, including providing additional services
to resolve truckers' concerns. Toll collection is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11-15% between Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2028.
Factors contributing to the growth of toll expenses in India are as follows:

• Expansion of national highways and toll plazas: National highways have grown at a CAGR of 5% with toll plazas
increasing at 10% over the past 5 years. Growing toll road networks allowing for faster speeds are set to boost future
toll collections.

• Increment in toll fare per toll plaza: Toll rates have risen by more than 5% annually for the past 2 years to cover
construction and maintenance costs, driving higher revenues per toll plaza per vehicle.

• Surge in transactions by commercial vehicles: Preference for highways has led to more transactions per vehicle,
increasing both the volume and value of toll spending. Moreover, the transacting number of vehicles per quarter has
also seen an uptick over the years.

As mentioned earlier, the trucking segment is the largest contributor to the tolls collection and faces unique challenges. For a
truck operator, in addition to the challenges in adoption of digital payments, FASTag downtimes, incorrect toll deductions
and non-availability of support infrastructure in the context of electronic toll collection, make it difficult to use any off-the-

153
shelf FASTag available in the market. For example, the tolling industry typically takes up to four to six weeks to process
chargeback requests. While digital solutions are available for truckers to seek help, navigating them can be challenging and
requires prior familiarity with the applications and processes. Moreover, truckers often struggle to trust digital platforms.
Therefore, a simple, trucker-specific solution is needed to address the myriad challenges faced by truckers in India.

b) Fuelling

Diesel consumption in India has witnessed a notable surge, currently standing at 89 million metric tons (mt),
marking a compound annual growth rate of 2% over the past five years. Commercial vehicles account for a majority
of diesel consumption in the country with 62-65% of overall consumption attributed to trucks as of Fiscal 2024. The
upsurge in fuel consumption can be attributed directly to the escalating numbers of commercial vehicles on the roads
and the rise in prices.

Oil marketing companies (“OMCs”) distribute and sell petroleum products like petrol, diesel, LPG, and ATF,
playing a vital role in India's petroleum supply chain. OMCs operate fuel stations strategically located across the
country for easy accessibility. OMCs' network of fuel stations offers widespread coverage, located along highways,
major roads, and in urban and rural areas.

Major OMCs in India include Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL), Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited
(BPCL), Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL), and Reliance Limited (RIL). Fuel, being standardized
and regulated in price to an extent by the government, is considered a commoditized product. This regulation fosters
competition among OMCs, leading to promotional activities to attract customers and increase market share which
has also led to the introduction of digital fuel cards. These fuel cards serve as a form of loyalty program, encouraging
customers to frequent their outlets by offering incentives such as discounts, cashback, or reward points. Maintaining
market share is crucial for OMCs, and loyalty programs play a pivotal role in achieving this goal. Even with these
benefits, current penetration of loyalty programs in India stands at just 20-21% indicating significant headroom to
grow.

Exhibit 12

Revenue pool from digital fuel cards in India

Source(s): Redseer estimates

Fueling solutions have a revenue pool of US$ 190-200 million in Fiscal 2024 and will continue to grow at a CAGR of 19-
21% till Fiscal 2028. The growth in commercial vehicles in the country coupled with rising penetration of loyalty programs
and strong macroeconomic headwinds, will translate into higher revenues in the future years.

Telematics

In today’s digital age, real-time information availability and monitoring of vehicles is critical for efficient fleet
management. Telematics solutions make this very accessible with just a few clicks. Telematics enable truck
operators to manage operations, monitor driving behavior, and optimize truck maintenance costs. It includes basic
GPS tracking devices as well as advanced devices like fuel monitoring systems, tyre pressure monitoring systems
and driver dash cameras and driving behavior monitoring systems. As truck operators in India operate their trucks
throughout the year at all hours, often with a small team, they require solutions to manage their trucks around the
clock.

The Automotive Industry Standard 140 (“AIS-140”) provides for the mandatory implementation of advanced vehicle
tracking devices in certain specific types of commercial vehicles. This mandate has been implemented in multiple
states in India in 2018, including Maharashtra, Bihar, West Bengal and Orissa, primarily for vehicles which are used
for mining and certain other activities. Overall, the AIS-140 device mandate represents a significant opportunity for
the vehicle tracking industry, with an estimated four million vehicles installing tracking devices in the next four
years from 2024 to 2028.

Exhibit 13

Source(s): Redseer Research

As a result of these mandates, the penetration of telematics devices in the transportation sector has significantly increased.
Penetration for vehicle location tracking devices in total trucks has gone up from 20% in Fiscal 2021 to 40-45% by Fiscal
2024, and current revenue pool of US$ 400-410 million. Compared globally, opportunity size in the USA is US$ 22 billion at
72% of penetration. It is expected that penetration in India will also rise to these levels in the next four years, which will drive
the market.

Source(s): VAHAN, Redseer estimates

Advanced Telematics offers value beyond tracking, with advanced features including fuel sensors, dashcams, and tyre
pressure monitoring systems. Fuel sensors detect sudden drops in fuel levels, indicating pilferage or leakage, enhancing
control for operators. Fuel accounting by truck operators is typically undertaken through manual record-keeping. It is
expected that the Indian trucking industry will witness a natural increase in fuel sensor adoption among truck operators in the
next four years due to significant value derived from the same. Dashcams record footage for insurance purposes and absolve
drivers of liability in accidents where they are not at fault. Tyre pressure monitoring helps in mileage by alerting drivers and
operators to low tyre

pressure. Developed economies like the USA witness high adoption rates, with advanced telematics penetration at
approximately 20%, whereas penetration in India stands at less than 1%. Hence, India is also expected to experience a
significant growth in adoption of advanced telematics in the coming years. Companies that are first to seize this opportunity
gain an advantage in capturing a significant market share. However, the successful adoption of these advanced solutions relies
on several key factors that distinguish it from global markets. Companies which are connected with truckers across India are
in a better position to capture the growing market because of the following reasons:

• Their pan-India service networks will ensure timely repair or replacement of devices, enhancing overall reliability.

156
• They can offer a diverse range of seamlessly integrated products which is essential for users seeking comprehensive
telematics solutions from a single provider.

• They can ensure efficient service delivery, encompassing installation and maintenance, which is critical for
minimizing downtime.

Loads marketplace

The Indian road freight industry is about US$ 170 – 175 billion, moving 3.3 trillion ton-km as of Fiscal 2024
annually and growing at a CAGR of 9% for the past 4 years. This industry is largely serviced offline through
multiple intermediaries between shippers and truck operators who charge a hefty commission for their services.

New age businesses driven by digital infrastructure have the potential to create a pan-India marketplace which can
be accessed by truck operators and shippers across all geographies. Digital freight activity in India is still in the
nascent stage of development. Penetration of digital freight platforms in overall road transportation is less than 2%
and the industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8-9% between Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2028. Currently
approximately 2.5 million digital loads are posted each year.

The low digital adoption among truckers can be attributed to several challenges:

• Lack of awareness and trust in digital platforms.

• Concerns regarding payment reliability and perceived complexity of digital systems.

• Infrastructural limitations, such as inadequate internet connectivity and technology literacy barrier.

Monetization is done in 2 ways:

• Subscriptions: Both shippers and truck operators can be charged a subscription fee for accessing digital marketplace
services, helping them to discover each other by matching relevant trucks with relevant shipments. Additionally,
varied pricing plans for subscriptions can be explored to maximize revenues. For instance, a subscription plan of
between ₹5,000-₹10,000 per month for unlimited postings, could result in a revenue pool of US$ 3.5-4 billion.
Different features and services can be tailored to the specific needs of truck operators. These plans may include
access to loads, vehicle tracking capabilities, payment solutions, or a combination of these features. Depending on
the features included and the rates charged, the total addressable market for each plan may vary, providing
opportunities for service providers to cater to diverse segments of the market effectively.

• Commission: Given that offline marketplaces/ brokers charge a commission between 8-10% for connecting shippers
with truck operators, online marketplaces can also charge a similar commission potentially resulting in a revenue
pool of US$ 8-13 billion. Platforms can ensure end to end accountability of the transaction including discovery,
matchmaking, pricing, payment, and fulfilment of the transaction. The structure of the business is similar to the
current unorganized marketplaces operated by local brokers, however, a digital infrastructure will provide a pan-
India presence and improve reliability for the truck operators and the shippers.

In addition to facilitating connections between operators and businesses, online marketplaces offer several other benefits:

• Higher Utilization rate: Online marketplaces enable operators to discover loads faster resulting in more trips per
month and increased revenues.

• Digitization of Payments: Online marketplaces reduce the need for cash transactions, minimizing leakage and
enhancing control and security for truck operators and businesses alike.

Commercial vehicle financing:

Used vehicle financing presents a substantial opportunity accounting for 63% of the overall vehicle financing market
with a size of US$ 54-56 billion in Fiscal 2024. Used commercial vehicle financing is largely serviced by
unorganized financiers, who contributed to almost 55-60% of this industry in Fiscal 2024. These local financiers
often charge exorbitant interest rates, for instance, of around 24-40% in Fiscal 2024. However, the market has started
to organize over the last decade and the revenue pool (difference between interest income and expense), which is
US$ 6.5 to 7 billion in Fiscal 2024, is projected to reach US$ 12-13 billion by Fiscal 2028.

Exhibit 15

Digital players have the potential to disrupt this market through innovation. By digitizing processes, turnaround times can be
reduced, and the loan application and approval process can be streamlined. Digital underwriting can expedite diligence using
algorithms and data analytics to assess creditworthiness. Additionally, fraud prevention measures like API document
verification can enhance security. Real-time visibility into truck operations can also be provided, improving collection
efficiency by offering insights into performance and revenue generation.

Therefore, digital platforms with established relations and transactions with truck operators have an opportunity to
revolutionize the market. By leveraging digital infrastructure, they can bypass traditional methods, reduce processing times,
enhance transparency and improve customer experience.

Digital players build mobile applications play a crucial role in vehicle financing loans for truckers, offering numerous
benefits that enhance efficiency and accessibility. These benefits have also pushed traditional players to adopt the digital
route and build their applications for leveraging the same benefits. Mobile applications streamline and simplify loan processes
along with sharing real-time updates of the status, due dates, EMI and other relevant information. This can allow for better
expense management for truckers. Additionally, truckers can avail additional facilities and connect with the lenders for early
repayments, extension and other facilities. Mobile applications also allow lenders to reach out to wider audience without the
requirement for an extensive on-ground manpower.

Entities in the vehicle financing sector are subject to the regulations set forth by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Failure to
comply with these regulations can result in fines, penalties, and more stringent actions. The RBI requires banks and Non-
Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) to implement a fair practice code that outlines ethical lending practices. This includes
the obligation to clearly communicate loan terms, interest rates, and conditions to borrowers prior to loan approval. Interest
rates must be presented on an annualized basis, ensuring borrowers are fully aware of the charges they will incur.
Furthermore, Lenders are mandated to incorporate a legally enforceable repossession clause in their loan agreements. This
clause should detail the notice period, specific circumstances under which repossession may occur, and the procedures
involved, including a final opportunity for borrowers to address defaults. Additionally, lenders should regularly review their
policies, processes, and practices to identify and rectify any deficiencies. Lenders must also ensure that they maintain
adequate controls over outsourced activities and third-party service providers.

Other opportunities

In addition to payments, telematics, vehicle financing and loads marketplace, the trucking ecosystem presents
emerging opportunities in other avenues. A comprehensive end-to-end platform can effectively tap into these
opportunities by leveraging its existing access to truck operators. Some of them are:

• Buying and selling of trucks

• Insurance services

• Repairs and maintenance

• Aftermarket spares

The process of buying and selling trucks in India is primarily facilitated by intermediaries, rather than through direct
interactions between truck operators on dedicated platforms or marketplaces. These intermediaries typically charge
commissions, thereby shaping the overall market opportunity. For every new vehicle sold, approximately three to four used
vehicles are sold in India on average. Truckers require specialized insurance coverage for their vehicles, cargo, and liabilities,
and businesses can collaborate with insurance providers to offer customized policies that meet these unique needs. Similarly,
businesses can facilitate access to a network of certified service centers and mechanics, allowing truckers to schedule
maintenance appointments conveniently and receive prompt assistance in the event of breakdowns or mechanical issues.
Likewise, partnerships with reputable suppliers and distributors can offer truckers access to a wide range of genuine spare
parts at competitive prices.

Offering a one-stop solution, where all necessary services are consolidated in a single platform, is crucial as it simplifies the

158
truckers' experience, saving them time and effort. Through leveraging its existing access to truckers and integrating additional
services like insurance, repairs, maintenance, and aftermarket spare parts into its digital infrastructure, the platform can
effectively streamline operations, improve efficiency, and drive greater value for all stakeholders in the trucking ecosystem.

Section 5: Key success factors for Digital Trucking Platforms

The trucking ecosystem provides diverse opportunities with large revenue pools. While the market needs a large number of
ingredients for success, the below are the most important driving principles of success of extracting value through organizing
and digitizing the space:

• Technology-first solutions

• Widespread physical presence

• Integrated single platform offerings

These factors have been covered in length below:

1. Tech-based businesses have scalability and the power of data.

Technology-based businesses are poised to gain a competitive edge in India's trucking ecosystem, leveraging the
scalability and customization capabilities. With the trucking ecosystem spanning across India, reaching truckers
across the vast landscape presents a distribution challenge for traditional solutions, leading to increased costs.
Technology addresses this issue by offering scalable and uniform solutions that can be customized to vernacular
languages, thereby reducing costs and improving revenues by streamlining operations and reducing market driven
inefficiencies. Digital platforms have the potential to bypass the current intermediary-led network, resulting in
further cost savings and higher revenues for truckers.

Furthermore, digital platforms can generate valuable data that can be utilized for cross-selling solutions and
enhancing the overall truck operator experience. By analysing this data, digital platforms can identify additional
services or products that may benefit truckers and offer them at opportune moments, thereby increasing revenue
streams. Moreover, the insights derived from this data can be used to tailor offerings to better meet the needs of truck
operators, ultimately improving their experience and fostering long-term loyalty to the digital platform. Thus,
technology-based businesses have a significant advantage in the trucking ecosystem in India, offering scalable
solutions, cost savings, and enhanced customer experiences through data-driven insights.

2. Physical presence and localized approach is vital for building trust.

Truck operators, especially in remote or rural areas, often prefer accessing services through physical touchpoints and
face-to- face interactions. Unfamiliarity with purely digital platforms leads to trust issues. These operators need
physical handholding to help them bridge this trust gap. Hence, a digital-only approach can struggle to meet the
specific needs and preferences of truck operators due to the absence of personal interaction. The lack of human touch
can hinder the adoption of these platforms.

To build trust, companies targeting the trucking sector should adopt a "phygital" approach combining digital
convenience with on-the-ground support. This hybrid model allows platforms to offer both scalability and localized
expertise, fostering stronger relationships and trust.

3. Integrated platform reduces the cost of acquisition and increases revenues.

In the trucking ecosystem, most companies provide solutions focused on solving a single problem, either tolling, or
telematics or vehicle financing, amongst others. Moreover, these solutions are often tailored to the broader industry
landscape rather than addressing the specific needs of truck operators in India. This causes a gap in meeting the
unique requirements of truck operators. Scaling such businesses often incurs high distribution costs due to their
nationwide presence. Therefore, companies offering multiple solutions on a single platform can leverage the same
distribution network to cross-sell their offerings, reducing overall acquisition costs and improving unit economics in
this traditionally challenging industry.

The synergy of these three elements grants companies a distinct competitive edge. The blend of digital platforms
with a physical network creates a formidable barrier against competitors which becomes challenging to replicate.
Integrated solutions not only reduce costs but also capture customer mindshare, enhancing brand loyalty and
recognition. This approach facilitates building an extensive network of truck operators and sets in motion a flywheel
effect where user experience and satisfaction grow with increased usage of offerings and services.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

159
BlackBuck is the largest digital trucking platform in India.

India has started seeing the development of new-age businesses catering to the trucking industry. In India, traditionally, the
market to serve truck operators had players anchored around offering solutions at specific points of the operators’ journey.
For instance:

• Buying and selling of new trucks were enabled by dealerships of large manufacturers while the used-vehicle market
is largely unorganized and includes traditional networks of sellers and brokers.

• Financial services players and banks like Shriram Finance, ICICI Bank, IDFC First Bank, Axis Bank, HDFC Bank,
State Bank of India and Kotak Mahindra Bank among numerous others provided solutions around tolling and vehicle
financing.

• Load discovery and matchmaking were managed through unorganized network of brokers

• Fleet operations were supervised by truck operators themselves or through a few hired managers/supervisors, with
completely manual and offline processes

Vehicle financing is a competitive industry with established banks and NBFCs. These players possess extensive physical
presence with proven underwriting models and efficient collection services. Few of them are mentioned below.

Note: The list of the companies mentioned below is non-exhaustive and may have other related entities or may define metrics
differently and hence, may not be directly comparable.

mentioned above may have other related entities or may define metrics differently and hence, may not be directly comparable due to inclusion/non-inclusion
of commercial vehicles, personal vehicles, two wheelers, construction equipment, farm equipment, used loans, new loans amongst others.4. Data is as of
March 2024 and have been converted to ₹ billion.

While these players are still prominent in the market, new-age tech-led players are disrupting it quite significantly. These
players differentiate by solving across the operators’ journey through integrated/end-to-end solutions. They leverage the
powers of technology and data to provide seamless services to truck operators while intelligently deploying feet on street to
reach them. A few of these players are BlackBuck, Wheelseye, Vahak, FleetX Loconav amongst others and these players
represent the new- age digital freight platforms for truck operators. However, amongst these disrupters, BlackBuck is the
largest player in terms of revenues of ₹2.9 billion for Fiscal 2024. Also, it is India’s largest digital freight platform for truck
operators, in terms of number of users, with 0.96 million truck operators in the country transacting on its platform in Fiscal
2024, which comprises 27.52% truck operators in the country.

BlackBuck has achieved this by being the market leader across multiple offerings. For instance, BlackBuck is the largest
distributor and technology provider of FASTags for truck operators in Fiscal 2024 in terms of gross transaction value (GTV) 1.
GTV payments are defined as the rupee value of total transactions made and not the revenue of the company. It is the largest

1 GTV refers to rupee value of total transactions. A transaction comprises all successful swipes by the customers in using FASTags and
all recharges by the customers using fuel cards. The customers recharge for tolling and fueling by depositing money into the account.
GTV is not synonymous to the revenue of the Blackbuck. Revenue is only the commission income in any fiscal period basis an agreed
percentage of the total GTV payments in the period.

160
player with a market share2 (in terms of GTV payment) of 32.92% in Fiscal 2024 (compared to 26.42% in Fiscal 2023 and
22.55% in Fiscal 2022) in tolling for truck operator segment with a GTV of ₹147,936.77 million in Fiscal 2024, growing at
47.82% year on year from Fiscal 2023.

Blackbuck is the largest fuel loyalty management platform for truck operators in India in terms of GTV in Fiscal 2024, with
coverage enabling 72% of total fuel stations in India. This has enabled BlackBuck to be India’s largest payments platform for
truck operators, by catering to their top two expenses, i.e. Toll & Fuel Payments, in Fiscal 2024. Strong distribution and
fulfilment network has also led BlackBuck to become one of the largest players in the vehicle tracking market in India.

Among new-age digital platforms in the trucking sector, BlackBuck has the largest physical network (in terms of number of
touchpoints) across India as of June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, it has sold and serviced its products across 628 districts
constituting 80% of India’s districts, including in all of the major transportation hubs and across 76% of the toll plaza network
in India with over 9,300 ground touchpoints.

BlackBuck exemplifies the integrated approach in its offerings, enabling broad user engagement through its platform and
physical touchpoints. This sets off a network effect, allowing them to introduce new services and solutions to a growing user
base. Such an integrated, phygital-led approach has enabled BlackBuck’s user engagement through its platform and physical
touchpoints, setting off network effects which allow for introduction of new services and solutions to its growing user base.

A few examples of listed companies in India and globally, that engage in one or more trucking activities are CE Info Systems
Limited, Fleetcor Technologies Inc and Full Truck Alliance Company Limited. C.E. Info Systems is a geo-spatial and geo-
location data and technology products and platforms company. Operating as “MapMyIndia”, the company is provider of
advanced digital maps, geospatial software and location-based IoT technologies, including proprietary digital maps as a
service (“MaaS”), software as a service (“SaaS”) and platform as a service (“PaaS”) and also provides telematics solutions
Fleetcor operates as a payments company that helps businesses and consumers manage vehicle-related expenses, lodging
expenses, and corporate payments in the United States, Brazil, the United Kingdom, among others. They offer fleet payment
solutions, which include fuel, tolls, parking, fleet maintenance, and long-haul transportation services, in addition to other
corporate payment solutions and offerings. Full Truck Alliance operates a digital freight platform in connecting shippers with
truckers to facilitate shipments across distance ranges, cargo weights, and types. They offer freight matching services, such as
freight listing and brokerage services, and online transaction services. They also offer various value-added services, such as
credit solutions, insurance brokerage, software solutions, electronic toll collection, and energy services.

Threats and Challenges

BlackBuck operates in a dynamic and evolving industry landscape, facing multiple challenges and threats as it strives to
enhance its product and service offerings.

Challenges

• Adoption of digital technology: Encouraging truck operators in India to adopt digital technologies, including digital
fuel cards and advanced telematics solutions like fuel sensors and dashcams, is a significant hurdle. However, global
companies mentioned above like Fleetcor, Wex and Samsara have achieved significant scale in these segments.

• Integrated service offerings: Adding related services such as insurance, repairs, and aftermarket spare parts on a
unified platform can require substantial effort and coordination.

• Scale-up of loads marketplace: India’s freight industry continues to be characterized by high intermediation due to
deeply entrenched local networks of brokers. Bridging this gap with truck operators through a mix of physical and
digital outreach, while continuing to increase the liquidity of the marketplace will require sustained effort. Only a
few companies such as Full Truck Alliance (FTA) in China have been able to build large businesses in this space.

Threats

• Competitive intensity in payments: Fleet payments landscape in India is very competitive, with established players
including multiple banks continuing to push for higher market share as the digital landscape evolves.

• Presence of strong traditional players in vehicle financing: Gaining market share can be challenging as traditional
NBFCs possess extensive physical presence with proven underwriting models and efficient collection services.

• Development of railways as an alternative to road freight: The Indian government has started to give impetus to
development of dedicated rail freight corridors. While this development will require substantial investment of capital
and time, this may lead to a reduction in dependence on trucking over the next few decades.

2 Market share arrived through the total transaction value of FASTags processed by Blackbuck (₹147,936.77 million) and total
transaction value of the commercial vehicle FASTags processed by all in India in Fiscal 2024 (₹449,353.75 million).

161
Conclusion

India's rapid economic growth sets the stage for an expanding trucking sector, yet the industry's inherent inefficiencies pose
challenges for truck operators. These challenges persist due to the industry's fragmented nature across the country.
Addressing these issues presents substantial opportunities for companies competing in this domain. While digital platforms
offer scalability, maintaining a physical presence is crucial for building trust with truck operators. Companies that effectively
tackle these challenges stand to capture a significant market share in India's growing trucking industry. While there are
numerous players in the market that offer piecemeal solutions across the truck operators’ journey, it’s the new-age, tech-led
end-to-end players which have been able to disrupt the market. Out of these players, BlackBuck has been the most successful
in scaling across the nation with the largest truck operator user base and GTV in Fiscal 2024.

OVERVIEW

Who are we?

We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of users), with 963,345 truck operators in the
country transacting on our platform in Fiscal 2024, which comprises 27.52% of India’s truck operators (Source: Redseer
Report). India’s growing economy needs the support of robust logistical capabilities and small and medium size truck
operators are the backbone of logistics in the country. These truck operators are served through value chains which are
unorganized and fragmented, making their operations inefficient (Source: Redseer Report). We are on a mission to digitally
empower India’s truck operators, helping them manage their business and grow their income. Using our platform, our
customers (primarily comprising truck operators) digitally manage payments for tolling and fueling, monitor drivers and
fleets using telematics, find loads on our marketplace and get access to financing for the purchase of used vehicles.

Set out below is a graphic representation of certain key metrics related to our business.

163
Truck operators use the BlackBuck mobile application (the “BlackBuck App”) for their diverse business needs. Set out
below are certain key highlights in relation to our business:

• Our gross transaction value (“GTV”) in payments was ₹53,562.01 million and ₹173,961.93 million in the three months
ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. Our customers recharge for tolling and fueling through our
BlackBuck App into the payment instrument of the FASTag and fuel partners. Significant portion of this amount is
deposited into our account and onward remitted to our partners account. GTV payments do not represent the revenue of
our Company. Our commission income in any period/year is only an agreed percentage of the total GTV payments in that
period/year. Our methodology of disclosing the GTV may not be comparable to the methodology used by other platform
companies. For further details on our commission income, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations – Results of Operations” on page 359.

• Truck operators manage their truck-level tolling and fueling operations through the BlackBuck App, and gain cost
benefits and effective control over expenses through decreased risk of pilferage and unauthorized spending.

• Truck operators purchase telematics services such as vehicle tracking and fuel sensors to manage their drivers and fleets.
We had 390,088 and 356,050 average monthly active telematics devices in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and
Fiscal 2024, respectively.

• Truck operators use our loads marketplace product to search for loads to fill their empty capacities or to get a better price
for a load. We had 0.71 million and 2.12 million load postings in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024,
respectively, which enabled 133,369 and 256,685 truck operators to get a load during the same periods.

• Truck operators avail used commercial vehicle financing through our platform. As on June 30, 2024, we have facilitated
disbursements of 5,109 loans amounting to ₹2,527.56 million.

Our offerings solve critical problems for our customers and form an integral part of their daily lives. In the three months
ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, our monthly transacting truck operators were active for more than 16.26 days and 16.18
days, respectively, in a month and on an average spent 41.54 minutes and 39.56 minutes, respectively, daily, on the
BlackBuck App. The needs of the trucking industry are very specific and the truck operator's demography in India is unique
(Source: Redseer Report). We have built our offerings and distribution strategy specifically for these users and the industry,
and we believe that this is the key underlying reason for the strong truck operator engagement on the BlackBuck App and the
market share we possess.

We follow an omnichannel customer onboarding and servicing strategy, which is made specifically for the demography of
our customer base. We have a digital-led marketing strategy which provides awareness of our solutions and brand to
customers. Using a combination of an on-ground sales force, channel partners and telesales we support customers through
their entire onboarding process. Among new-age digital platforms in the trucking sector, we have the largest physical network
(in terms of number of Touchpoints) across India and as of June 30, 2024, we have sold and serviced our products across 628
districts constituting 80% of India’s districts, including in all of the major transportation hubs and across 76% of the toll plaza
network in India (Source: Redseer Report). We have a digitally enabled network of 9,374 touchpoints to conduct onboarding
and servicing activities as of June 30, 2024. Our network is one of our core strengths and enables us to build trust with
customers and provides the necessary service infrastructure for our customers. For further details of our distribution strategy,
see “ – Omnichannel distribution network with robust sales and service strategy driving customer adoption” and “– Sales,
Distribution, Servicing and Marketing” on pages 170 and 185, respectively.

INTRODUCTION TO OUR OFFERINGS

The BlackBuck App is a platform providing payments, telematics, loads marketplace and vehicle financing services. These
solutions aim to digitally empower truck operators and help them operate their business effectively and efficiently.

165
Our offerings comprise the following:

Payments: Our payments platform provides solutions in relation to two significant expenses of truck operators, i.e., tolls and
fuel payments. We enable truck operators to make these payments efficiently and securely through our platform.

Tolling: We provide tolling solutions (FASTags) in partnership with FASTag Partner Banks. We are the largest distributor
and technology provider of FASTags for truck operators in Fiscal 2024 (in terms of GTV) (Source: Redseer Report). In
addition, we are the largest player with a market share (in terms of GTV payment) of 32.92% in Fiscal 2024 (compared to
26.42% in Fiscal 2023 and 22.55% in Fiscal 2022) in tolling for truck operator segment with a GTV of ₹147,936.77 million
in Fiscal 2024, growing at 47.82% year on year from Fiscal 2023 (Source: Redseer Report).

Fueling: We provide fueling payments solution through a cashless fuel payments platform, in partnership with multiple oil
marketing companies (“OMCs”). We are the largest fuel loyalty management platform for truck operators in India, in terms
of GTV in Fiscal 2024, with coverage enabling 72% of total fuel stations in India (Source: Redseer Report).

We generate revenue through these offerings primarily through (i) commission margins from FASTag Bank Partners on the
toll transaction flowthrough (based on the monthly transaction value of the FASTags distributed by us); and (ii) commission
margin from OMCs in fueling transaction flowthrough (based on either the monthly consumption volume of fuel or monthly
transaction value of fuel purchased). In addition to this, we also earn revenue through an activation or convenience fee from
truck operators in relation to FASTAgs, subscription fees to access specific services on the platform in relation to our tolling
offering and service fees in relation to our fueling offering for providing services such as distribution and recharge of fuel
cards, dedicated customer support, alerts and transaction history.

Telematics: We offer telematics solutions for truck operators that provide real-time visibility into fleet movements, route
optimization and enhanced fuel management, with the aim of increasing cost savings and improving efficiency. We provide
vehicle tracking and fuel monitoring solutions on our platform. We are one of the largest players for vehicle tracking
solutions in the trucking segment in India, with 356,050 average monthly active telematics devices in Fiscal 2024 and
390,088 average monthly active telematics devices in three months ended 30 June 2024 (Source: Redseer Report).

We generate revenue from truck operators through monthly or annual subscription fees.

Loads marketplace: Our loads marketplace efficiently matches truck operators (who need loads) with shippers (who are
looking for trucks) across commodities, load weights, truck types and distance ranges. Our loads marketplace is India’s
largest digital freight platform with 2.12 million digital loads posted in Fiscal 2024 (Source: Redseer Report). Through our
listing marketplace, registered shippers post loads on the BlackBuck Transporter mobile application (“BB Transporter
App”) to find a truck. The BlackBuck App thereafter provides recommendation-based loads to truck operators, matching
available trucks to shippers. In January 2024, we also started a freight brokerage business which is an extension of our listing
marketplace where we enable end-to-end logistics transactions for shippers. For the freight brokerage business model, we
leverage the listing marketplace to discover trucks which meet the shipper’s requirements, negotiate the price and payment
terms, and handle fulfillment responsibilities with the truck operator, on behalf of shippers.

We generate revenue through subscription fees which are charged to shippers for posting loads on the BB Transporter App.
We also charge subscription fees to truck operators for preferred matching services on the BlackBuck App. We offer various
subscription plans to shippers and truck operators. The loads marketplace offering is in the early stages of monetization.

Vehicle Financing: We enable truck operators to buy used commercial vehicles or to avail financing on an existing vehicle
by providing financing solutions. We primarily facilitate disbursement of credit in partnership with our Financial Partners.

166
We generate revenue from our vehicle financing business through loan service fees. In addition, we are entitled to certain
other fees charged to the borrowers in the process of loan disbursal and collections, either partially or in full. For further
details, including in relation to our own-book model, see “– Our Offerings” on page 174.

We derive our revenues primarily through commission income from our payments offerings, subscription fees from a
combination of our telematics, payments and our loads marketplace offerings and service fees from our vehicle financing
offering. For further details, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations –
Principal components of our restated consolidated statement of profit and loss” on page 358.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY

The Indian trucking industry stands as a vital component of the nation’s logistics sector. With approximately 12.5 million
trucks and 3.5 million truck operators in Fiscal 2024, traversing Indian roads, the total freight value through trucks has
witnessed a steady growth rate of 8 to 9% CAGR over the past four years (from Fiscal 2020 to Fiscal 2024).

Trucking in India is highly fragmented in nature, with 75% of truck operators having less than five trucks. High
fragmentation in this industry is a result of multiple operationally complex processes required to run the business efficiently.
Further, high dependence on cash-handling increases leakages at various touchpoints, such as fuel, tolling and repairs and
maintenance. A majority of the operations of the truck operators are managed remotely. Hence, there is a significant lack of
visibility into the day-to-day activities of the trucks. This results in ineffective control, especially for fleet owners managing
multiple vehicles, who often remain unaware of their trucks' status once they are on the road.

The trucking industry offers vast revenue potential for companies that solve for challenges and inefficiencies, and enhance
value for truck operators. Innovating digital products to tailor solutions for meeting truckers’ specific needs and scaling these
offerings through strong distribution networks can unlock significant opportunities. The Indian trucking sector is a US$18 to
US$25 billion revenue pool in Fiscal 2024 and expected to reach US$35 billion by Fiscal 2028. (Source: Redseer Report)

OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS

India’s largest digital platform for truck operators

We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of users) as of March 31, 2024, according to
the Redseer Report, and we facilitated over 413.34 million transactions for 963,345 annual transacting truck operators in
Fiscal 2024. We served 27.52% truck operators in India and facilitated 32.92% of the commercial vehicles tolling payments
in Fiscal 2024 (Source: Redseer Report). Our services are available across 628 districts, constituting 80% of India’s districts
as of June 30, 2024 (Source: Redseer Report).

Our current market position is the foundation upon which we continue to build, as the highly fragmented trucking industry in
India presents an immense opportunity for digital transformation. Our business model is centered around truck operators and
aims to solve their challenges by providing them a digital platform to manage tolling and fueling payments, track their fleet
real-time, find loads and financing for used vehicles to grow their business. Our ability to offer accessible solutions for Indian
truck operators such as the availability of the Blackbuck App in four vernacular languages (Hindi, Kannada, Tamil and
Telugu) in addition to English and physical presence and customer support at all hours for our customers is a key factor for
our position as India’s largest digital platform of truck operators (in terms of number of users) as of March 31, 2024.

We enjoy increasingly powerful network effects and operating leverage due to our scale and as our platform continues to
grow, it will further increase and enhance engagement with truck operators and shippers. These benefits are further outlined
in the section below.

Strong network effects of platform resulting in robust customer retention rates and higher monetization

We have a wide network of truck operators built over nine years of operations. We have been able to build a nationwide truck
operator base through targeted digital and telemarketing campaigns and effective nationwide on-ground teams. Through this,
we have been able to grow our customer base of annual transacting truck operators to 963,345 in Fiscal 2024 from 482,446 in
Fiscal 2022.

167
As our platform attracts more truck operators, it becomes increasingly appealing to partners seeking access to our wide
network. As a result, the platform facilitates additional payment transactions, more active telematics devices and other
essential services, resulting in enhanced fleet management efficiency. Moreover, as truck operators utilize more of our
services, the platform gathers additional data, empowering us to refine our solutions and identify cross-selling opportunities.
This, in turn, bolsters the platform’s appeal to truck operators, fostering their loyalty and increasing their engagement. In
relation to our load marketplace offering, as the platform’s network of truck operators grows, it also attracts more shippers
seeking efficient load matching on the BB Transporter App. This results in potentially higher revenue generation
opportunities for truck operators, further reinforcing the platform’s value proposition for all stakeholders involved. Such
network effects are visible in the monthly transacting truck operators using more than two services, which as a percentage of
average monthly transacting truck operators grew to 43.34% in Fiscal 2024 from 20.83% in Fiscal 2022. For the three months
ended June 30, 2024, our monthly transacting truck operators using more than two services, as a percentage of average
monthly transacting truck operators was 45.20%.

Set out below is a graphic representation of the strong network effects of our platform.

We have achieved strong retention rates among our customers, driven by our offerings which aim to address key challenges
faced by our customers and our ability to continually innovate and offer new products to streamline our customers’
operations. We have high customer engagement rates since our offerings are an integral part of our customers’ operations,
with 62.04%, 60.12% and 54.16% of our annual transacting truck operators transacting on a monthly basis in Fiscal 2024,
Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively.

Set out below are details of our cohorts of truck operators onboarded since Fiscal 2021:

Notes:
* Annual transacting truck operator is defined as unique truck operators that made at least one transactional activity on our platform during the fiscal.
Each truck operator is uniquely identified by mobile number to ensure accurate counting and prevent double-counting of operators. Successful
utilization of a service or product is defined based on the transaction criteria. Retention rates have been derived by multiplying the transacting truck
operators in the relevant fiscal by 100 and divided by transacting truck operators in the first year of transacting with our Company. For example:
93.51% is (the number of transacting truck operators in Fiscal 2022 from the Fiscal 2021 cohort) *100 / (number of transacting truck operators who
transacted for the first time with the Company in Fiscal 2021).

168
Given the strong value proposition we offer to our truck operators, we are able to benefit from long term retention and
visibility of business from existing truck operators. Our platform retained 93.51% (in the first year), 76.04% (in the second
year) and 66.25% (in the third year) of the annual transacting truck operators who transacted on our platform for the first time
in Fiscal 2021. Our platform retained 87.82% (in the first year) and 64.36% (in the second year) of the annual transacting
truck operators who transacted on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2022. Similarly, our platform retained 85.52% of
the annual transacting truck operators in the first year, who transacted on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2023. Our
retention rate in the first year and second year reduced for the Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2023 cohorts compared to the Fiscal
2021 cohorts due to the substantial increase in the number of truck operators onboarded in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2023, given
the Fiscal 2021 cohort was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We had 963,345, 761,871 and 482,446 annual transacting
truck operators in Fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. On an absolute basis, the cohort of annual transacting truck
operators retained after the first year and second year has increased consistently.

Notes:
* Annual transacting truck operator is defined as unique truck operators that made at least one transactional activity on our platform during the fiscal.
Successful utilization of a service or product is defined based on the transaction criteria. Revenue retention rates have been derived by dividing the
revenue from a cohort of annual transacting truck operators onboarded in a fiscal divided by the revenue generated by the same transacting truck
operators in the first year of them transacting with our Company. For example: The revenue retention rate in Fiscal 2022 is calculated for the cohort
of annual transacting truck operators onboarded in Fiscal 2021 and is (revenue generated by transacting truck operators in Fiscal 2022)/ (revenue
generated by transacting truck operators in Fiscal 2021).

Our platform generated 3.17x (in the first year), 2.84x (in the second year) and 3.31x (in the third year) of the revenue
generated by annual transacting truck operators who transacted on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2021. The revenue
retention in Fiscal 2022 observed a higher increase driven by a one-time substantial increase in activity of the truck operators
in Fiscal 2022 compared to Fiscal 2021, as the businesses of truck operators were impacted in Fiscal 2021 by the COVID-19
pandemic. Similarly, we generated 2.13x (in the first year) and 2.24x (in the second year) of the revenue generated by annual
transacting truck operators who transacted on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2022. We generated 2.04x (in the first
year) of the revenue generated by annual truck operators who transacted on our platform for the first time in Fiscal 2023. The
increase in revenue retention rate is driven by an increase in the number of transactions, increase in pricing and increase in
number of services used by truck operators. This demonstrates that we are able to generate repeat, incremental revenue from
existing transacting truck operators.

Notes:
* Annual transacting truck operator is defined as unique truck operators that made at least one transactional activity on our platform during the fiscal.
Successful utilization of a service or product is defined based on the transaction criteria. Revenue per transacting truck operator has been derived by
dividing revenue from a cohort of annual transacting truck operators onboarded by our Company in a fiscal divided by the number of annual
transacting truck operators.

Our platform’s revenue per annual transacting truck operator increased from ₹704.65 in Fiscal 2021 (Year 0) to ₹2,388.00 (in
the first year), ₹2,635.66 (in the second year) and ₹3,525.67 (in the third year). Similarly, revenue per annual transacting
truck operator increased for Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2023 cohort as well. This was driven by an increase in the number of
169
transactions by truck operators on our platform, an increase in our services used by truck operators and an increase in
monetization of our services. Further, due to higher usage and improved monetization, the revenue per annual transacting
truck operator in the initial year has consistently increased from ₹704.65 in Fiscal 2021 to ₹1,643.50 in Fiscal 2024.

Repeatable playbook of creating and launching new offerings

We focus on addressing challenges faced by truck operators in India by creating innovative solutions. We aim to create new
offerings that fill market gaps and meet customer needs. Using an agile product development approach, we utilize feedback
from our customers, to develop products which address their pain points in operations. When our product is primed for
release, we implement a launch strategy that leverages our existing marketing channels and physical touchpoints to target a
faster adoption among customers, at a lower cost.

We were able to generate a significant scale of customers with the launch of our payments offerings. As we acquired more
customers through our payments offering and started seeing higher engagement of customers on our platform, we thereafter
launched our telematics offering. The strength of the existing customer base coupled with the depth and scale of our sales and
distribution network helped us scale the adoption of our telematics offerings rapidly. We then launched our loads marketplace
offering, which saw acceptance within nine months from our customer base. This is reflected in the fact that it took 33 months
for 100,000 customers to subscribe to our payments offerings, 22 months for 100,000 customers to purchase GPS-BB 100
(one of our primary vehicle tracking solutions models) and nine months for 100,000 customers to use our loads marketplace
offering. We have been able to achieve this primarily due to the platform-led strong network effects playing out in our
business, value- add of our services for our customers and the strength of our omnichannel sales and distribution strategy.

Omnichannel distribution network with robust sales and service strategy driving customer adoption

Truck operators in India are spread across metro, urban and rural communities. Building trust with truck operators on digital
platforms requires significant handholding, due to a perceived lack of trust and familiarity with smartphone applications
(Source: Redseer Report). We aim to solve this gap in trust and familiarity through our sales and service strategy. Our
distribution strategy, covering both sales and servicing, is a mix of digital and physical Touchpoints to cater to the specific
requirements of this set of users.

170
*Map not to scale

We use a mix of digital marketing and targeted notifications through the BlackBuck App and our 9,374 Touchpoints (as of
June 30, 2024) on the ground, to acquire new customers, as well as cross-sell/upsell our products to existing customers. As

of June 30, 2024, our Touchpoints include a 843-member telesales unit that reaches out primarily to our existing customers
for upselling and cross-selling our products as well as 587 channel partners through whom we reach out to truck operators for
sales across multiple product offerings. As of June 30, 2024, we have sold and serviced our products in 80% of India’s
districts, including in all the major transportation hubs and across 76% of the toll plaza network in India (Source: Redseer
Report). We also have implemented a robust customer servicing strategy, to ensure that the needs of our existing customers
are met. We offer multiple avenues for customer servicing, including the BlackBuck App, where our customers can resolve
issues through self-service options, an on-field service network, customer support through a dedicated hotline, and our
channel partners. As a result of our sales, distribution and marketing strategies, we have been able to increase our base of
annual transacting truck operators to 963,345 customers in Fiscal 2024 from 761,871 in Fiscal 2023 and 482,446 in Fiscal
2022.

Scalable and reliable in-house technology integrating with multiple stakeholders

A significant percentage of truck operators in India rely on professional drivers to run their vehicles. This means that truck
operators need to manage their operations remotely, which makes their task even more complex (Source: Redseer Report).
Accordingly, the need for reliable and real-time technology to efficiently run their operations is critical. Being a solution
provider, focused exclusively on truck operators, we have developed most of our technology stack and solutions in-house
aimed at providing reliable, accurate and real-time solutions to several key challenges faced by truck operators in India
through our platform. We have a dedicated in-house product, engineering and data science team which develops technology
layers enabling our comprehensive suite of solutions to address these challenges and they are assisted by inputs from our
customers to ensure continuous feedback-driven new product development.

Our customers rely on the BlackBuck app for running the day-to-day operations of their business, including tolling and
fueling payments, vehicle and fuel levels tracking and loads matching. This requires us to build applications which have user-
friendly interfaces, and are light and fast, and this also needs high uptime of our backend systems. To achieve this, we follow
a micro- service-oriented platform architecture, which comprises of small, maintainable and scalable building blocks. This
architecture results in higher reliability and up-time of our platform for our customers

Our technology layers primarily comprise of: (i) an app and business layer; (ii) a partner integration layer; and (iii) a platform
and big data layer.

App and Business Layer

We have multiple customized applications which serve our truck operators as well as other business stakeholders (including
channel partners, shippers and sales teams). Each of these applications is integrated with independent business layers
including payments, telematics, vehicle financing and loads marketplace. Such integration enables us to independently
modify, test and deploy any new requirements quickly and efficiently. Our app is designed with an optimal mix of
development technologies and programming languages to ensure consistent customer experience across all different types of
customer devices.

Partner Integration Layer

171
We have multiple offerings which require complex interfacing and integration with many different partners and systems,
including partner banks, OMC Partners and different transportation management systems (“TMS”). The partner integration
layer is responsible for integration with our partners.

Platform and Big Data Layer

Our platform and big data layer handles a large amount of real-time data from our customers, including details of
transactions, locations, fuel levels and application click stream events. This layer is able to process high volumes of data
promptly allowing us to reliably operate the app and business layers on top of it. The dynamic capability of this layer ensures
that as we add more users and newer features on the platform, the systems are able to absorb increasing scale efficiently.
Access to vast amount of real time data on a pan-India basis helps us customize our offerings and address the needs and pain-
points of our customers.

High growth business with operating leverage and strong unit economics

Our asset-light business model is based on offering services to truck operators, and generates revenue through platform fees,
subscription fees and commissions. We neither take any inventory risk nor own trucks on our balance sheet, and mainly
distribute loans through our Financial Partners.

Our business model has predictable revenue streams such as tolling and fueling payments, that are daily use cases for our
truck operators, and telematics has monthly recurring subscription fees. We believe we are a high-growth company, given
that the trucking industry offers vast revenue potential for companies that solve challenges and inefficiencies and enhance
value for truck operators (source: Redseer Report). As we have scaled our operations in the last three fiscal years, we have
achieved high contribution margin and have been able to improve our operating leverage and Adjusted EBITDA margins.

OUR STRATEGIES

Leveraging our deep understanding of the trucking ecosystem and the challenges faced by truck operators, we have devised a
comprehensive growth strategy aimed at solidifying our market position, enhancing our product offerings, and achieving
sustainable profitability.

Our key strategies are as follows:

172
Deepen distribution and continue strengthening the truck operator base

Our success in the logistics industry can be attributed primarily to our investments made towards distribution and servicing
for our customers. Our distribution strategy is well aligned with the demography of our customer base and the nature of our
products and solutions, which we believe has brought us continuous success over the years. We intend to continue to focus on
growing our customer base by attracting new transacting truck operators to our platform. We will do this by investing in
deepening our distribution base and increasing the density of our distribution in key strategic pockets across India, where our
proportionate market shares are lower, such as Gujarat, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu (source: Redseer Report). This will make
our offerings available to a larger number of truck operators and allow us to gain market share. We will also continue to focus
on increasing engagement with our existing base of truck operators to use our platform more frequently, including by
investing towards our sales and marketing initiatives. Also see “Objects of the Offer – Details of the Objects – Funding
towards sales and marketing costs” on page 121.

Continue investing in our core verticals of payments and telematics

Our core offerings of payments and telematics have scaled significantly over the last three years. In order to grow these
offerings, we have continually built strong customer value proposition. The fuel sensor is one of our newest products in our
telematics offering and we intend to continue to work on its product value proposition and customer experience, with an aim
to increase customer acceptance and reliance. We believe these offerings will continue to grow in the upcoming years, driven
by further investments towards our distribution capabilities as well as the projected growth of India’s trucking industry,
which, according to the Redseer Report, is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8% to 9% from Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2028.
Further, the vehicle tracking market penetration is at 40% to 45% in Fiscal 2024 and is estimated to grow up to penetration
level of 65% to 70% in Fiscal 2028 (Source: Redseer Report). To support this growth, we intend to continue investing in sales
and marketing activities, building technology infrastructure to handle the growing scale and continue to strengthen our
customer experience in payment and telematics.

Focus on growing our loads marketplace and vehicle finance verticals

Our customer base of 963,345 truck operators, as on March 31, 2024, provides us with the opportunity to offer new products
to existing customers and develop newer offerings by leveraging data and insight into the day-to-day operations of truck
operators. Our loads marketplace and vehicle financing offerings are currently in their growth phase, and we aim to continue
to expand these offerings.

In context of our loads marketplace offering, the availability of real-time data signals of our customers’ trucks enables us to
match them with demand (from shippers), helping them maximize their utilization and earnings. We intend to focus on
growing the loads marketplace in the upcoming years through investments in product and technology. Further, based on the
performance of the freight brokerage offering, we propose to expand use of this offering to other cities across the country.

We started our vehicle finance business in June 2022 on a pilot basis, by serving a small segment of customers, with
financing arrangements with our Financial Partners and began fully fledged operations in Fiscal 2024. We believe that our
understanding of our customers, trucking routes, asset deployment and real-time data on trucks enables us to cater to the
requirements of both financial institutions and truck operators looking to seek vehicle financing. Leveraging our strengths, we
believe we have been able to establish the product market fit for this business, having facilitated disbursements of 5,109 loans
amounting to ₹2,527.56 million up to June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, we provide vehicle financing to customers in 52
districts across seven states in India. We intend to continue growing this business, including by investing in BlackBuck
FinServe Private Limited (“BFPL”). Also see “Objects of the Offer – Details of the Objects – Investment in Blackbuck
Finserve Private Limited, our wholly owned NBFC subsidiary, for financing the augmentation of its capital base to meet its
future capital requirements” on page 124.

Continue to innovate, launch new offerings and solve problems for truck operators

We follow a customer-centric approach in our business, which involves actively listening to the evolving needs of our
customers and developing innovative solutions to address the pain points of the typical Indian truck operator. This has helped
us to launch multiple offerings since our incorporation. As we onboard more truck operators onto our platform and gather
more operational data, we continue to gain deeper insights into their operating challenges. This enables us to create tailored
product offerings which simplify operations, improve efficiency, and enhance profitability for our truck operator partners. We
intend to continue investing towards our product development initiatives to launch new offerings. We aim to continue to
leverage our domain expertise, data-led insights, and technology capabilities to continuously iterate and expand our suite of
products and services, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of addressing the evolving needs of the trucking ecosystem.
Also see “Objects of the Offer – Details of the Objects – Funding of expenditure in relation to product development” on page
126.

Continue to scale and invest in technology infrastructure and data science capabilities

Technology and data science are at the core of the products we develop for truck operators. Our scale of operations and nature
of businesses, in particular the payment and telematics verticals, require us to invest in building technology capabilities. As
the scale of our operations continue to increase and we launch new offerings, we need to continuously build technology to

173
manage scale. In the vehicle financing space, we intend to innovate through technology-enabled loan origination system,
fraud detection and prevention systems, and sales enablement products. In newer telematics offerings of fuel sensors we will
invest in further product development to enable affordability and accuracy to scale ahead. Our multiple business offerings
also rely on usage of data capabilities, which help build intelligence interfaces and enable optimization of operations for our
customers. With the scale of real-time data collection continuing to increase and our aim to introduce new products and
offerings which will create value for customers, we will continue to invest in our technology and data science capabilities.

OUR OFFERINGS

The BlackBuck App serves as a platform providing payments, telematics, loads marketplace and vehicle financing services.
These solutions digitally empower truck operators and help them realize their objectives effectively and efficiently.

Our offerings comprise (1) payments; (2) telematics; (3) loads marketplace; and (4) vehicle financing.

Payments

Our payments platform provides solutions in relation to two expenses of truck operators, i.e., toll and fuel payments. We
enable truck operators to make these payments efficiently and securely through the BlackBuck App, giving them control and
visibility over these key expenses. Using our insight into problems faced by truck operators and other demographics, together
with our product development capabilities, we have become India’s largest payment platform for truck operators as of June
30, 2024 (Source: Redseer Report). As of March 31, 2024, we are the only company which provides an end-to-end digital
platform catering to truck operators in India.

Tolling

Electronic toll collection, led by FASTag, was mandated by the Government of India on December 1, 2019 across all national
highways in India. This mandate changed the way truck operators functioned because, prior to this, digital payment adoption
was low in the logistics industry (Source: Redseer Report).

We are the largest player (in terms of GTV payment) in tolling for the truck operator segment with a GTV of ₹147,936.77
million in Fiscal 2024, growing at 47.82% year on year from Fiscal 2023 (Source: Redseer Report). We have partnered with
FASTag Partner Banks for the issuance of FASTags. We provide end-to-end technology support for truck operators from the
point of sale of a FASTag to recharging the balance, chargebacks, instant refunds, uptime and on-ground support.

Leading player in truck tolling, with a 32.92% market share in Fiscal 2024 (Source: Redseer Report)

We had a market share in terms of GTV payments of 32.92% in the truck tolling segment in Fiscal 2024, compared to 26.42%
in Fiscal 2023 and 22.55% in Fiscal 2022 (Source: Redseer Report).

Even though market penetration of FASTags reached 96% by Fiscal Year 2021, according to the Redseer Report, we have
continued to increase our market share in terms of GTV payments consistently over the last three years. Set out below are
certain metrics in relation to our tolling offering:

GTV payments (tolling) is defined as the rupee value of total successful transactions made in relation to our tolling business. A transaction comprises
all swipes by customers of our FASTags in the tolling business. Our customers recharge for tolling and fueling through our BlackBuck App into the
payment instrument of the FASTag and fuel partners. Significant portion of this amount is deposited into our account and onward remitted to our
partners account. GTV payments do not represent the revenue of our Company. Our commission income in any fiscal period/year is only an agreed
percentage of the total GTV payments in that period/year. Our methodology of disclosing the GTV may not be comparable to the methodology used by
other platform companies. For further details on our commission income, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations – Results of Operations” on page 359.

Our platform is deeply integrated with partners for a quality customer experience

Our customers manage our FASTags using the BlackBuck App. We have integrated with FASTag Partner Banks to provide
an effective tolling experience for our customers.

Set out below is a graphic representation of how our tolling solution works.

Our tailormade tolling solution for truck operators

The trucking segment contributed to over 75% of the total toll expenditure in Fiscal 2024, driven by higher toll fares for
trucks and high frequency of movement on toll highways as compared to passenger vehicles. This makes a truck operator a
significant tolling user who spends the highest in tolls (an average of ₹16,000 to ₹18,000 per month in Fiscal 2024) and also
uses the tolling service the most frequently (an average of 50 swipes per month in Fiscal 2024). For a truck operator, in
addition to the challenges in adoption of digital payments, FASTag downtimes, incorrect toll deductions and non-availability
of support infrastructure in the context of electronic toll collection make it difficult to use any off-the-shelf FASTag available
in the market. (Source: Redseer Report)

In June 2024, we provided 99.68% FASTag uptime (monitored through our infrastructure with data center, network links, and
clustered servers). We leverage our distribution, support network and technology to drive our FASTag penetration to truck
operators. This has helped us become the largest distributor and technology provider of FASTags (in terms of GTV) for truck
operators in India in Fiscal 2024 (Source: Redseer Report).

Strong differentiation making our tolling solution the preferred choice for truck operators

Our toll payment solution has been designed considering the significant toll usage of truck operators. Some of the key
highlights for our tolling solution are: the BlackBuck App is available in four vernacular languages (in addition to English)
making the application accessible to truck operators familiar with the vernacular language, which enables ease of recharging
of FASTags, on-ground support network of 9,374 physical Touchpoints (as of June 30, 2024), and products such as FASTag
Gold, a subscription service which provides value added services to subscribers such as guaranteed double deduction refund,
priority customer support and protection from getting blacklisted at the toll plaza through auto-recharge and free tag
replacement. We are also the primary point of contact for our customers on any issues or concerns related to our FASTags.
For information on our customer support network, see “– Sales, distribution, servicing and marketing” on page 185.

Predictable and recurring revenue model

We generate revenue from truck operators in the form of convenience fees, platform fees and subscription charges, while our
FASTag Partner Banks pay us commission on the toll transaction flowthrough. Commissions which are payable to us by
FASTag Partner Banks are dependent on government denominated program management fees. For further details see “Risk
Factors – Our business is subject to various laws and regulations which are constantly evolving. If we are deemed to be not
in compliance with any of these laws and regulations, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be
materially and adversely affected” on page 41.

A truck operator is a significant tolling user who spends the highest in tolls and uses the tolling service the most frequently,
with an average 50 swipes per month in Fiscal 2024. (Source: Redseer Report). Accordingly, we have reasonable visibility of
our revenues once we have onboarded a truck operator, given we earn commission from FASTag Partner Banks on each
transaction facilitated through the FASTags distributed by us.

Service Provider Agreements and Business Correspondent Agreements

We enter into service provider agreements or business correspondent agreements with our FASTag Partner Banks for
distribution of FASTags issued by the relevant FASTag Partner Bank on a non-exclusive basis and management of end-to-
end customer lifecycle. The term of these agreements ranges from five years to 20 years.

Also see “Risk Factors – Internal Risks - We depend on our business partners in our payments and vehicle financing
offerings. Our partners in our payments offering contribute to a significant portion of our revenues (41.04% and 42.50% of
175
total revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively) and one of
our FASTag Partner Banks contributed to 29.62% and 33.51% of total revenue from continuing operations in the three
months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. The loss of any such partners may adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition.” on page 35.

Fueling

Toll and Fuel payments constitute one of the largest outlays for truck operators. These expenses constitute almost 80% of the
spend for a typical truck operator (Source: Redseer Report). The trucking industry primarily operates on a cash basis for daily
activities like fueling, paying driver wages, and maintaining vehicles, with approximately 25% to 30% of all fuel payments by
truck operations in India being in cash. This cash-centric approach increases the risk of pilferage and unauthorized spending.
Drivers may also inflate expenses to pocket the difference, leading to higher operational costs. (Source: Redseer Report)

Set out below is a graphic representation of how our fueling payment solution works.

Our fueling payments solution aims to resolve these challenges by offering truck operators a cashless fuel payments card,
which we provide in partnership with multiple OMCs. These cards are accepted at certain designated fuel retail outlets of our
OMC partners. We are the largest fuel loyalty management platform for truck operators in India with coverage enabling 72%
of total fuel stations in India (Source: Redseer Report).

Customers also earn reward points and cashback rewards while paying through the fueling cards. Further, we also have tie-
ups with certain fuel pumps of our OMC Partners at specific locations, through which our customers can earn additional
reward points.

Set out below are details of our fuel transactions for the periods indicated.

Single platform combining the top loyalty programs in India

According to the Redseer Report, we are the largest fuel loyalty platform in India for truck operators in terms of GTV in
Fiscal 2024. We have partnered with OMC Partners for fuel payments, and such OMC Partners provide their loyalty program
over our platform through API-led deep technology integration.

Enable truck operators to make fuel payments remotely

We provide both physical and digital cards (issued in partnership with our OMC Partners) for fuel payments, catering to the
needs of our customers. Our digital cards are more commonly used among our customers, with over 99.12% of cashless
fueling transactions in Fiscal 2024 through the BlackBuck App taking place using digital cards. Digital cards help truck
operators make fuel payments remotely and securely through two-factor authentication (“2FA”).

Predictable and recurring revenue model

We generate revenue from truck operators, in the form of half-yearly subscription fees, while our OMC Partners pay us a
commission margin on the fuel transaction flowthrough, based on the: (a) monthly consumption volume of fuel; and (b)
monthly transaction value of fuel purchased. Since fueling is a necessity for truck operators, there is reasonable visibility as to
our recurring revenues from fueling once we have onboarded a truck operator for our fueling payments solution.

Agreements with OMC Partners

We enter into agreements with OMC Partners pursuant to which we distribute fuel cards and onboard truck operators on their
respective loyalty programs. The term of these agreements is up to four years. These loyalty programs of our OMC Partners
enable truck operators to purchase fuel, lubricants and other products and services available at the designated fuel outlets of
our OMC Partners using a prepaid physical or digital fuel card. Further, we also have tie-ups with certain fuel pumps of our
OMC Partners at specific locations, through which our customers can earn additional reward points.

results of operations and financial condition.” on page 35.

Telematics

In today’s digital age, real-time information availability and monitoring of vehicles is critical for efficient fleet management.
Telematics solutions make this very accessible with just a few clicks. (Source: Redseer Report)

177
Penetration for vehicle location tracking solutions in trucks has gone up from 20% in Fiscal 2021 to 40% to 45% in Fiscal
2024 in India, compared with a penetration of 72% in the United States. It is expected that penetration for vehicle tracking
solutions in India will also rise to these levels in the next four years, which will drive the market. In relation to advanced
telematics solutions such as fuel sensors, developed economies such as the United States, witness high adoption rates, with
advanced telematics penetration at approximately 20%, whereas penetration in India is less than 1%. (Source: Redseer
Report)

We offer telematics solutions for truck operators that provide real-time visibility into fleet movements, route optimization and
enhanced fuel management, with the aim of increasing cost savings and improving efficiency for our customers. We have
identified certain key telematics requirements for truck operators in India and provide vehicle tracking and fuel monitoring
solutions on our platform.

Vehicle tracking

We are the one of the largest players in the vehicle tracking market in India, with 356,050 average monthly active telematics
devices in Fiscal 2024 and 390,088 average monthly active telematics devices in three months ended 30 June 2024 (Source:
Redseer Report). Our vehicle tracking solution goes beyond real-time location tracking, and tracks driver behavior, such as
over-speeding, harsh braking and harsh acceleration, theft protection, geo-fence-based alerts, which can alert the truck
operator when a driver deviates from their route and delivery time estimation, all of which can be tracked on the BlackBuck
App. We offer both AIS and no-AIS GPS tracking model with GPS-BB 100 (one of our primary vehicle tracking solutions
models). In addition to truck operators, our application is also integrated with over 36 companies and transportation
management system (“TMS”) providers as of June 30, 2024, enabling truck operators to share their vehicle tracking data with
their customers, i.e., shippers and other companies, thereby eliminating the need for installing separate tracking devices.

In addition, our tracking solutions also track and notify our customers of any harsh accelerations and/or braking which
signifies the quality of the driving behavior which in turn impacts the costs related to mileage and maintenance. Our vehicle
tracking device has a security mechanism that allows customers to remotely lock the engine through the BlackBuck App
immediately in case of theft.

Set out below is a graphic representation of how our vehicle tracking solution works.

We have built an extensive network of on-ground technicians

One of our advantages is our network of more than 1,050 on-ground technicians located across India, as of June 30, 2024, that
are available to provide services in relation to our telematics devices. Our technicians use our in-house mobile application
(the “BB Pro App”), which helps them receive and fulfill repair or installation jobs for tracking devices from truck operators.
The BB Pro App also helps technicians validate the quality of their job through a rating mechanism. With the combined
strength of our network of technicians and technology, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, we were able
to service more than 82.79% and 81.91%, respectively, of the repair tickets within 72 hours of reporting.

Vehicle tracking market is further opening up with government mandates

In India, the implementation of the Automotive Industry Standard 140 (the “AIS-140”) protocol has been pivotal in
mandating the installation of GPS devices in trucks requiring fitness certificates and specific mining permissions to improve
safety, security and compliance. This regulatory requirement has significantly increased the adoption of telematics devices
within the trucking industry, enhancing monitoring capabilities and promoting operational efficiency. As a result of these
mandates, the penetration of telematics devices in the transportation sector has significantly increased. Penetration for vehicle
178
location tracking devices in total trucks has increased from 20% in Fiscal 2021 to 40% to 45% in Fiscal 2024. (Source:
Redseer Report)

Arrangements for supply

We typically purchase the hardware for our vehicle tracking solutions pursuant to purchase orders with suppliers based in
India. We also have in place a service agreement for a term of five years with one of our suppliers, with an option to renew by
mutual consent.

Also see “Risk Factors – We depend on certain key suppliers to procure a significant portion our vehicle tracking solutions,
who in turn import may their supplies from outside India. Any loss of relationship with these suppliers or any supply chain
disruption or policy changes in relation to these geographies outside India could adversely affect our business, results of
operations and financial condition.” on page 37.

Subscription-based revenue model

We generate revenue from truck operators through subscription fees which are typically payable for a period ranging from
one month to six years.

Fuel sensor

We launched our fuel monitoring offering in Fiscal 2024. A fuel sensor is a device installed in the fuel tank of a truck that
monitors various metrics such as fuel viscosity and rate of fuel consumption, among others. Fuel sensors enable our
customers to understand and keep track of their fuel consumption patterns. In the three months ended June 30, 2024, we
installed 293 fuel sensors for our customers.

Arrangements for supply

We purchase fuel sensors pursuant to a service agreement with a supplier based in India. The service agreement is for a term
of two years, with an option to renew for a further two years on mutually agreed terms. In addition to providing us with the
fuel

sensors, the supplier is also responsible for installation services, providing training to the customer and on-ground servicing
for the first year after installation. The service agreement with the supplier is on a non-exclusive basis.

Also see “Risk Factors – We depend on certain key suppliers to procure a significant portion our vehicle tracking solutions,
who in turn import may their supplies from outside India. Any loss of relationship with these suppliers or any supply chain
disruption or policy changes in relation to these geographies outside India could adversely affect our business, results of
operations and financial condition.” on page 37.

Subscription-based revenue model

We generate revenue from truck operators, through monthly and annual subscription fees.

Loads marketplace

The Indian road freight industry is about US$ 170 to 175 billion, moving 3.3 trillion ton/km in Fiscal 2024 annually, and
growing at a CAGR of 9% in the last four years. This industry is largely serviced offline through multiple intermediaries
between shippers and truck operators who charge a hefty commission for their services. New age businesses driven by digital
infrastructure have the potential to create a pan-India marketplace which can be accessed by truck operators and shippers
across all geographies. Currently, the overall penetration of digital freight platforms in overall road transportation is less than
2% Fiscal 2024. (Source: Redseer Report)

Our loads marketplace efficiently matches truck operators (who need loads) with shippers (who are looking for trucks) across
commodities, load weights, truck types and distance ranges. Set out below are certain details of transactions in relation to our
loads marketplace.

In India, the matching of shippers and truckers traditionally takes place offline in remote transportation hubs. Shippers and
truck operators have diverse, complex and often non-standard needs. The matching process for a truck operator’s truck with a
load is complex due to several reasons, including lack of aggregate information about loads/trucks in a particular hub,
multiple variables in matching a load with a suitable truck, truck type, tonnage etc., mismatch of pricing and payment terms
between shippers and truckers, lack of trust in working with an unknown shipper/truck operator. (Source: Redseer Report)

High dependence on intermediaries to find shipments leads to significant hurdles in discovery and matching of loads between
shippers and truck operators. As a result, trucks in India spend an average of 24 to 48 hours to find their next shipment,
leading to significantly high levels of under-utilization. Trucks in India only run for 18 to 20 days a month on the road while
the rest of the time is spent idling. (Source: Redseer Report)

Our loads marketplace solution seeks to address these industry challenges through a digital, standardized and smart tech-
enabled platform that connects truck operators with shippers. We have established a nationwide network of truck operators
and shippers that aims to promote efficiency, transparency and trust across the logistics industry.

Our loads marketplace has two offerings:

Listing marketplace; and

Freight brokerage

Listing marketplace

We established our listing marketplace in June 2020. Through our listing marketplace, registered shippers post loads with
details such as pick-up and delivery locations, tonnage, length of time, payment terms, time of loading and any other
customized requirements on the BB Transporter App to find a truck.

Our data-driven algorithms are built on data points collected every day in real time from trucks using our FASTags, fuel cards
and vehicle tracking solutions, from truck operators searching for loads, their historical demand and seasonality of movement
across the country. These algorithms enable us to provide recommendation-based loads to truck operators, matching available
trucks near shippers with a suitable pricing. After successful matching, truck operators and shippers communicate with each
other through our secured call masking feature to negotiate price and payment terms. Upon completion of negotiations,
fulfillment documents and payments are exchanged directly between the truck operator and the shipper.

Our marketplace has introduced many features and operational processes such as verified communication line between
shipper and truck operator after KYC of shippers who come to our platform, ratings and reviews of verified truck operators
and shippers, dispute resolution and call screening. These processes and features help bridge the trust deficit between truck
operators and shippers, allowing them to transact with greater assurance.

Truck operators using the listing marketplace have been able to generate higher profits from their trucking operations by
reducing idle time, optimizing their routes to higher yield-generating lanes and finding return loads. Similarly, shippers have
seen their income increase due to improved percentage demand fulfillment and lower freight procurement costs by
discovering truck operators outside of their private network. The BB Transporter App has become a widely accepted choice
for newer shippers to discover and build their supply network. (Source: Redseer Report)

Revenue model for listing marketplace

Shippers on our platform purchase subscription plans to get access to the platform (BB Transporter App) for posting loads.
Shippers can subscribe to a plan comprising various options (with a combination of number of loads posted and subscription
validity, i.e., three months, six months or 12 months). Depending on the subscription plan, shippers may post varying
numbers of loads during the relevant subscription period. Certain subscription plans offer shippers unlimited loads postings
during the relevant subscription period. Our monthly transacting shippers for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal
2024 were 7,792 and 6,598, respectively.

We have implemented a “freemium” model (i.e., where basic features of this offering are provided to customers at no cost
and a premium is charged for supplemental or advanced features) for truck operators since October 2023. Truck operators can
choose a time duration-based (three months, six months or 12 months, with unlimited usage) subscription plan. A subscribed
truck operator also gets a dedicated relationship manager to improve their truck utilization and assured freight payment from
shippers.

Freight brokerage

180
We introduced our freight brokerage marketplace in January 2024. With this offering, we seek to facilitate every part of the
logistics transaction. Shippers share their truck requirements with us. Our marketplace enables discovery of the right truck
operator, price and payment terms finalization, and execution of end-to-end fulfillment. Shippers get access to in-transit load
tracking. Similarly, truck operators get assurance of their payments and visibility of transaction documents and payment
ledgers, providing the much-needed transparency. As on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we operate our freight
brokerage offering through a hub located in Bengaluru, Karnataka.

Revenue model for freight brokerage

Under this model, the shipper pays the freight amount to us and we in turn settle the payments with the truck operator. The
difference between the amount collected from the shipper and the amount paid to the truck operator represents our
commission. This offering allows us to earn a higher take rate due to the end-to-end responsibility undertaken on behalf of
shippers.

Vehicle financing

We enable credit access for our truck operators to buy used commercial vehicles or to avail themselves of financing on an
existing vehicle through our technology-led vehicle financing platform. We commenced this offering on a pilot basis in June
2022 (under the partnership model) and began fully fledged operations in Fiscal 2024. All of the loans originated by us are
secured loans. We leverage our annual transacting customer base of 963,345 customers in Fiscal 2024 and 9,374 Touchpoint-
led distribution networks as of June 30, 2024 for the distribution and collection of loans. As on June 30, 2024, we have
facilitated disbursements of 5,109 loans amounting to ₹2,527.56 million.

We have adopted a “phygital” approach (a mix of physical and digital) to conducting this business, through platform-led
offerings providing the needed differentiated value proposition for our customers and our business model, and an on-ground
network for effective collections and local credit understanding. We provide vehicle financing across 52 districts across seven
states through channel partners in India, as of June 30, 2024. We have built an in-house end-to-end loan origination system,
which is customized for the vehicle finance business. We provide loans to our customers using the following two methods:

Partnership model: We source borrowers and assist in execution of vehicle loans on behalf of our Financial Partners. Over
92.69% of the total vehicle financing loans disbursed as on June 30, 2024 (i.e., 4,774 loans amounting to ₹2,342.78 million)
were through this model. We enable our partners with discovery of customers, customer insights, end-to-end loan origination
and collections and an understanding of customer needs and distribution.

Own book model: We also provide vehicle financing through a contractual arrangement with our wholly owned NBFC
subsidiary, BFPL. As on June 30, 2024, approximately 7.31% of the vehicle financing loans we have disbursed were from our
own account through BFPL (i.e., 335 loans amounting to ₹184.77 million). BlackBuck FinServe received its non-deposit-
taking NBFC license on August 1, 2023 and commenced operations in October 2023.

Our vehicle financing offering subjects us to various risks including KYC fraud, exposure to relatively high-risk borrowers
with limited banking and credit history, loss provisioning, borrowers utilizing the loans for illegal purposes, collateral
recovery and compliance with Indian regulations and policies and requirements of RBI. For further details, see “Risk Factors
– Internal Risks - Our vehicle financing offering exposes us to various risks including in relation to high-risk borrowers and
collateral recovery which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition” and “Risk
Factors – Internal Risks - We have limited experience in our vehicle financing offering, which makes it difficult to accurately
assess our future growth prospects and may negatively affect our business, results of operations and financial condition” on
page 51 and 52, respectively.

End-to-end loan origination system, collection and technology integration with financing partners

We have built an in-house end-to-end loan origination system and are integrated with our partners through APIs for a
seamless loan-booking experience.

We leverage data from other offerings to help our partners develop credit underwriting policies. For example, if a customer is
using our payments offerings or telematics devices, using the operational data of the customer that we track, we are able to
analyze the customer’s trucking effectiveness, which helps us to assess their loan application better and recommend to our
partners the size of the loan and the rate of interest for the customer.

We have built a strong fraud prevention mechanism by leveraging APIs and creating robust risk control processes within our
Company.

Credit Facilitation Agreements or Business Correspondent Agreements

We enter into credit facilitation agreements or business correspondent agreements with our Financial Partners under which
we facilitate the process of loan disbursal between our Financial Partners and the borrowers on a non-exclusive basis. The
term of these agreements is typically three years. As per certain agreements, we are required to meet certain targets prescribed
in the agreement.

181
Revenue model

We generate revenue from our vehicle financing business primarily through loan service fees, which is equivalent to the total
interest charged on the loan to borrowers minus an agreed rate of interest between us and the respective Financial Partner. In
addition, we are entitled to certain other fees charged to the borrowers in the process of loan disbursal and collections, either
partially or in full.

Fees charged during the process of loan disbursal are recognized at the point of disbursal and the loan service fee is receivable
on a monthly basis. Payment of some portion of the loan service fee, in case of certain partners, is deferred and is payable
based on performance of the portfolio.

Through our own book model, we generate revenues from interest income and loan processing fees.

BLACKBUCK APP – WALKTHROUGH

The BlackBuck App is an integral part of our offerings and serves to bring together all our service offerings under one
comprehensive platform. Through the BlackBuck App, customers can manage multiple aspects of their trucking business. In
the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, our monthly transacting truck operators were active for more than
16.26 days and 16.18 days, respectively, in a month and on an average spent 41.54 minutes and 39.56 minutes, respectively,
daily, on the BlackBuck App. A pictorial walkthrough of the BlackBuck App has been set out below.

SALES, DISTRIBUTION, SERVICING AND MARKETING

We have a large, omnichannel distribution network and follow a multi-pronged approach to reach the large base of truck
operators across India.

Customer onboarding strategy

185
Our customer onboarding strategy is driven through multiple channels:

Digital: We use targeted notifications and messaging through the BlackBuck App and paid digital marketing, to reach out to
new customers, as well as cross-sell/upsell our products to existing customers.

On-field workforce: Our on-field full time workforce comprising 4,654 individuals as of June 30, 2024 continually reaches
out to truck operators to identify and execute any opportunities for new sales. Our on-field workforce consists of a mix of on-
roll and off-roll employees. We cover 80% of all districts across India through this team, to ensure we can cater to the
requirements of truck operators across India (Source: Redseer Report).

On-demand workforce: We have an on-demand workforce team of 3,703 who sold and serviced our products covering 76%
of the toll plaza network in India as of June 30, 2024, and are enabled to onboard any customer with a FASTag requirement
(Source: Redseer Report). Our on-demand workforce consists of off-roll employees.

Telesales: We have a 843-member telesales team (consisting of on-roll and off-roll full time employees) as of June 30, 2024
that reaches out primarily to our existing customers for upselling and cross-selling our products.

Channel partners: We have over 587 channel partners spread across the country as of June 30, 2024, through which we reach
out to truck operators for sales across multiple product categories. These channel partners typically have a core business
catering to truck operators and include garages, mechanics, tire shops, spare part stores, and insurance agents, among others.

Customer-service strategy

Our servicing strategy follows a similar omnichannel strategy to ensure that our customers’ queries and issues are resolved in
the shortest possible time. Our customers are serviced through multiple avenues:

BlackBuck App: Our customers can raise and resolve issues directly through the BlackBuck App self-serve options. With just

KEY REGULATIONS AND POLICIES

Given below is an indicative summary of certain sector specific regulations and policies in India, which are applicable to our
Company. The information detailed in this chapter has been obtained from publications available in the public domain. The
description of the applicable regulations as given below is only intended to provide general information to the investors and
may not be exhaustive and is neither designed nor intended to be treated as a substitute for professional legal advice. The
indicative summaries are based on the current provisions of applicable law in India, which are subject to change or
modification, or amendment by subsequent legislative, regulatory, administrative, or judicial decisions.

For details of material regulatory approvals obtained by us, see “Government and Other Approvals” on page 387.

The Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 (“RBI Act”)

The RBI is entrusted with the responsibility of regulating and supervising NBFCs by virtue of powers vested in Chapter IIIB
of the RBI Act. The RBI Act defines an NBFC as: (a) a financial institution which is a company; (b) a non-banking institution
which is a company and which is in the principal business of receiving deposits, under any scheme or arrangement or in any
other manner, or lending in any manner; or (c) such other non-banking institution or class of institutions as the RBI may, with
the previous approval of the Central Government, and by notification in the Official Gazette, specify.

A company would be categorized as an NBFC if it has minimum net owned fund of ₹ 20.00 million or such other amount, not
exceeding ₹ 1,000 million, as the RBI may, by notification in the official gazette, specify from time to time. Further, NBFCs
are required to obtain a certificate of registration from the RBI prior to commencement of the business as a non-banking
financial institution.

Pursuant to Section 45-IC of the RBI Act, every NBFC is required to create a reserve fund and transfer thereto a sum not less
than 20% of its net profit every year, as disclosed in the profit and loss account and before any dividend is declared by such
company. Further, no appropriation can be made from such fund by the NBFC except for the purposes specified by the RBI
from time to time and every such appropriation shall be reported to the RBI within 21 days from the date of such withdrawal.

Master Direction – Reserve Bank of India (Non-Banking Financial Company – Scale Based Regulation) Directions, 2023
(“Scale Based Regulations”)

The RBI had issued the master directions dated October 19, 2023, as amended. The Scale Based Regulations divide NBFCs
into four layers based on their size, activity, and perceived risk. The lowest layer is the base layer (NBFC-BL), followed by
the middle layer (NBFC-ML), upper layer (NBFC-UL) and top layer (NBFC-TL).

• Base layer – The base layer comprises non-deposit taking NBFCs with assets worth up to ₹10,000 million.

• Middle layer – The middle layer comprises deposit-taking NBFCs irrespective of asset size, non-deposit-taking
NBFCs with assets worth ₹10,000 million or more, as well as NBFCs undertaking activities such as housing finance
companies, standalone primary dealers, infrastructure debt fund – non-banking financial companies, core investment
companies and infrastructure finance companies.

• Upper layer – The upper layer comprises the top ten NBFCs in terms of asset size, irrespective of any other factor
and certain other NBFCs specifically identified by the RBI based on parameters set out in the Scale Based
Regulations.

• Top layer – The Master Directions require the top layer to remain empty unless, in the opinion of the RBI, there is a
substantial increase in the potential systemic risk from specific NBFCs in the upper layer. Such NBFCs will be
moved from the upper layer to the top layer.

Under the Scale Based Regulations, all regulations applicable to an NBFC-BL are also applicable to an NBFC-ML, unless
specified otherwise. Further, from October 1, 2022, all references to NBFC-ND (i.e., non-systemically important non-deposit
taking NBFC) shall mean NBFC-BL and all references to NBFC-D (i.e., deposit taking NBFC) and NBFC-ND-SI
(systemically important non-deposit taking NBFC) shall mean NBFC-ML or NBFC-UL, as the case may be.

Further, all NBFCs are required to have at least one director that has work experience in a bank or an NBFC.

Fit and proper criteria: NBFCs are, inter alia, required to (a) maintain a policy approved by the board of directors for
ascertaining the fit and proper criteria of the directors at the time of appointment, and on a continuing basis, in line with the
guidelines prescribed under the Scale Based Regulations; (b) obtain a declaration and undertaking from directors giving
additional information on the directors, in the format prescribed under the Scale Based Regulations; (c) obtain a deed of
covenant signed by directors, in the format prescribed under the Scale Based Regulations; and (d) furnish to the RBI a
quarterly statement on change of directors and a certificate from the managing director of the NBFCs that fit and proper
criteria in selection of the directors has been followed. The RBI reserves the right to examine the ‘fit and proper’ criteria of
directors of any NBFC-ML irrespective of the asset size of such NBFC-MLs.

190
Disclosure and Transparency: NBFCs are required to place before the board of directors, at regular intervals, as may be
prescribed by their respective boards of directors, the following: (i) progress made in putting in place a progressive risk
management system and risk management policy and strategy followed by the concerned NBFC; and (ii) conformity with
corporate governance standards including composition of committees, their roles and functions, periodicity of the meetings
and compliance with coverage and review functions and so on.

NBFCs are also required to disclose their Capital to Risk Assets Ratio, exposure to real estate sector (direct and indirect) and
maturity pattern of assets and liabilities in their balance sheet. Further, NBFCs shall frame their internal guidelines on
corporate governance with the approval of the board of directors which shall be published on their respective websites.

Acquisition or Transfer of Control

NBFCs are required to obtain prior written permission of RBI for (a) any takeover or acquisition of control, which may or
may not result in change in management, (b) any change in the shareholding, including progressive increases over time,
which would result in acquisition or transfer of shareholding of 26% or more of the paid-up equity capital (no prior approval
is required if the shareholding going beyond 26% is due to buy-back of shares or reduction in capital where it has approval of
a competent court but must be reported to the RBI within one month of the occurrence), and (c) any change in the
management of the NBFCs, which results in change in more than 30% of the directors, excluding independent directors,
provided that no prior approval shall be required in case of directors who get re-elected on retirement by rotation. NBFCs are
required to continue informing the RBI regarding any change in their directors or management.

Prudential Norms

All NBFCs are required to maintain capital adequacy ratio consisting of Tier – I and Tier – II capital which shall not be less
than 15% of the NBFC’s aggregate risk weighted assets on-balance sheet and of risk adjusted value of off-balance sheet
items. The Tier – I capital in respect of NBFCs, at any point of time, shall not be less than 10%.

NBFCs risk exposure to a single counterparty or a group of connected counterparties is also kept under control through
ceiling limits on NBFCs investment and lending capacity to single counterparty or a group of connected counterparties.
NBFCs are not to invest more than 25% of their tier 1 capital to a single party and more than 40% of their tier 1 capital to a
single group of parties. The NBFCs are also mandated to formulate a policy for managing the exposure risk to single party/
single group of parties.

Liquidity Risk Management Framework and Liquidity Coverage Ratio

Liquidity Risk Management Framework

Non-deposit taking NBFCs with an asset size of ₹ 1,000 million and above and all deposit taking NBFCs are required to
adhere to the liquidity risk management framework prescribed under the Scale Based Regulations. The guidelines, inter alia,
require the board of directors of the NBFC to formulate a liquidity risk management framework, which ensures that it
maintains sufficient liquidity, detailing entity-level liquidity risk tolerance, funding strategies, prudential limits, system for
measuring, assessing and reporting/reviewing liquidity, framework for stress testing, liquidity planning under alternative
scenarios/formal contingent funding plan, nature and frequency of management reporting, and periodical review of
assumptions used in liquidity projections.

Liquidity Coverage Ratio

All non-deposit taking NBFCs with asset size of ₹ 100 billion and above, and all deposit taking NBFCs irrespective of their
asset size, are required to maintain a liquidity buffer in terms of liquidity coverage ratio which will promote resilience of
NBFCs to potential liquidity disruptions by ensuring that they have sufficient high quality liquid asset to survive any acute
liquidity stress scenario lasting for 30 days. The stock of high-quality liquid asset to be maintained by the NBFCs is required
to be a minimum of 100% of total net cash outflows over the next 30 calendar days. The liquidity coverage ratio requirement
is binding on NBFCs from December 1, 2020 with the minimum high quality liquid assets to be held being 50% of the
liquidity coverage ratio, progressively reaching up to the required level of 100% by December 1, 2024, in accordance with the
timeline prescribed below:

From December 1, 2020 December 1, 2021 December 1, 2022 December 1, 2023 December 1, 2024
Minimum Liquidity Coverage 50% 60% 70% 85% 100%
Ratio

Asset Classification and Provisioning Norms

All NBFCs are required to adopt the asset classification and provisioning norms as set forth below:

Asset Classification

(i) a “standard asset” means the asset in respect of which no default in repayment of principal or payment of interest is
perceived and which does not disclose any problem nor carry more than normal risk attached to the business.
191
(ii) a “sub-standard asset” means (a) an asset which has been classified as non-performing asset for a period not
exceeding 12 months; (b) an asset where the terms of the agreement regarding interest and/or principal have been
renegotiated or rescheduled or restructured after commencement of operations, until the expiry of one year of
satisfactory performance under the renegotiated or rescheduled or restructured terms. However, the classification of
infrastructure loans as sub-standard assets is subject to the conditions stipulated in the Scale Based Direction.

(iii) a “doubtful asset” means (a) a term loan, or (b) a lease asset, or (c) a hire purchase asset, or (d) any other asset,
which remains a sub-standard asset for a period exceeding 12 months.

(iv) a “loss asset” means (a) an asset which has been identified as loss asset by an NBFC or its internal or external
auditor or by the RBI during the inspection of the NBFC, to the extent it is not written off by the NBFC; and (b) an
asset which is adversely affected by a potential threat of non-recoverability due to either erosion in the value of
security or non-availability of security or due to any fraudulent act or omission on the part of the borrower.

(v) a “non-performing asset” means: (a) an asset for which interest has remained overdue for a period of more than 90
days; (b) a term loan inclusive of unpaid interest, when the instalment is overdue for a period of more than 90 days
or on which interest amount remained overdue for a period of more than 90 days; (c) a demand or call loan, which
remained overdue for a period of three months or more from the date of demand or call or on which interest amount
remained overdue for a period of more than 90 days; (d) a bill which remains overdue for a period of 90 days or
more; (e) the interest in respect of a debt or the income on receivables under the head ‘other current assets’ in the
nature of short term loans/advances, which facility remained overdue for a period of more than 90 days; (f) any dues
on account of sale of assets or services rendered or reimbursement of expenses incurred, which remained overdue for
a period of more than 90 days; (g) the lease rental and hire purchase instalment, which has become overdue for a
period of more than 90 days; (h) in respect of loans, advances and other credit facilities (including bills purchased
and discounted), the balance outstanding under the credit facilities (including accrued interest) made available to the
same borrower/beneficiary when any of the above credit facilities becomes non-performing asset. Provided that in
the case of lease and hire purchase transactions, an NBFC is required to classify each such account on the basis of its
record of recovery.

Regulation of Excessive Interest Charged by NBFCs

(i) The board of directors of each NBFC is required to adopt an interest rate model taking into account relevant factors
such as cost of funds, margin and risk premium and determine the rate of interest to be charged for loans and
advances. The rate of interest, the approach for gradations of risk and rationale for charging different rate of interest
to different categories of borrowers are required to be disclosed to the borrower or customer in the application form
and communicated explicitly in the sanction letter.

(ii) The rates of interest and the approach for gradation of risks are also required to be made available on the website of
the NBFCs or published in the relevant newspapers. The information published in the website or otherwise published
is required to be updated whenever there is a change in the rates of interest.

(iii) The rate of interest must be annualized rate so that the borrower is aware of the exact rates that would be charged to
the account.

Although rates of interest charged by NBFCs are not regulated by the RBI, rates of interest beyond a certain level may be
seen to be excessive. Board of directors of NBFCs shall lay out appropriate internal principles and procedures in determining
interest rates and processing and other charges. In this regard, the guidelines indicated in the Fair Practices Code about
transparency in respect of terms and conditions of the loans are to be kept in view.

Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards and guidance notes issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India are required to be
followed by NBFCs insofar as they are not inconsistent with any of the provisions of the Scale Based Regulations. NBFCs
that are required to implement Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as per the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2015 shall prepare their financial statements in accordance with Ind AS notified by the Government of India and shall
comply with the regulatory guidance specified in Annex II of these Directions. Disclosure requirements for notes to accounts
specified in scale based directions shall continue to apply.

Fair Practices Code

All NBFCs having customer interface are required to adopt a fair practices code in line with the guidelines prescribed under
the Scale Based Regulations. The Scale Based Regulations stipulate that such fair practices code should cover, inter alia, the
form and manner of processing of loan applications; loan appraisal and terms and conditions thereof; and disbursement of
loans and changes in terms and conditions of loans. The Scale Based Regulations also prescribe general conditions to be
observed by NBFCs in respect of loans and requires the board of directors of NBFCs to lay down a grievance redressal
mechanism. Such fair practices code should preferably be in vernacular language or language understood by borrowers of the
NBFCs.

192
Penal Charges in Loan Accounts

Penalties for non-compliance with material terms and conditions of a loan contract by a borrower shall be treated as ‘penal
charges’ and shall not be levied as a ‘penal interest’ that is added to the rate of interest charged on advances. No further
interest shall be computed on such penal charges. The Scale Based Regulations prohibit regulated entities, which include
NBFCs, from introducing any additional component to the rate of interest and stipulate that all NBFCs shall formulate a
Board approved policy on penal charges or similar charges on loans. The quantum of penal charges shall be reasonable
without being discriminatory within a particular loan or product category. In addition to being displayed on the NBFCs’
website, the reasons for penal charges shall be clearly disclosed by the NBFCs to the customers in the loan agreement and the
key fact statement.

Reset of Floating Interest Rate on Equated Monthly Instalments (EMI) based Personal Loans

At the time of sanction of EMI based floating rate personal loans, regulated entities (including NBFCs) are required to take
into account the repayment capacity of borrowers to ensure that adequate headroom is available for elongating the tenor or
increasing the EMI. In order to address consumer grievances related to elongation of loan tenor or increases in the EMI
amount, the notification requires NBFCs to put in place appropriate policy frameworks to meet the following requirements:

(i) at the time of sanction, clearly communicating to the borrowers about the possible impact of change in interest rate
on the loan that can lead to changes in the EMI and/or the tenor. Subsequently, any increase in the EMI / tenor or
both on account of the above shall be communicated to the borrower immediately through appropriate channels.;

(ii) at the time of the reset of interest rates, providing the option to the borrowers to switch over to a fixed rate as per
their Board approved policy;

(iii) all applicable charges for switching of loan from floating to fixed rate and any other service charges or
administrative costs shall be transparently disclosed in the sanction letter;

(iv) ensuring that the elongation of tenor for floating rate loans do not result in negative amortization;

(v) sharing a statement at the end of each quarter that enumerates the principal and interest recovered till date, the EMI
amount, the number of EMIs left and the annualized rate of interest/ Annual Percentage Rate for the entire tenor of
the loan. The notification requires the instructions enumerated therein to be extended to existing and new loans
suitably by December 31, 2023, and for existing borrowers to be sent a communication through appropriate
channels, intimating the options available to them.

Credit Concentration Norms

NBFCs are required to review extant sectoral exposure limits approved by the board of directors with respect to sub-segments
under consumer credit, in particular for all unsecured consumer credit exposures. The risk management committee on an
ongoing basis is required to monitor and ensure strict adherence to the limits so fixed.

To reduce regulatory concerns of NBFCs making investments in units of Alternate Investment Funds (AIFs), it has been
advised as under:

(i) NBFCs shall not make investments in any scheme of AIFs which have downstream investments either directly or
indirectly in their debtor company where debtor company shall mean any company to which NBFCs currently have
or previously had loans or investment exposure.

(ii) If NBFCs are already investors in AIF schemes, they shall liquidate their investments in the scheme within 30 days
of such downstream investment by the AIFs.

(iii) In case NBFCs are not able to liquidate their investments within the prescribed 30-day time limit, they shall make
100 percent provision on such investments.

(iv) Any investments by an NBFC in the subordinated units of any AIF scheme with a priority distribution model shall
be subject to full deduction from capital funds of the NBFC.

Declaration of Dividend

The Scale Based Regulations intend to infuse greater transparency and uniformity in practice of distribution of dividends by
setting eligibility criteria and disclosure requirements for NBFCs for distribution of dividends. According to the Scale Based
Regulations, NBFCs must comply with four minimum prudential criteria to be considered eligible to declare dividends: (i)
prescribed levels of capital adequacy; (ii) prescribed levels of Net NPA; (iii) compliance with provisions of Section 45IC of
the RBI Act; and (iv) continuous general compliance with RBI regulations and guidelines concerning NBFCs. The Scale
Based Regulations also prescribe to the board of directors of the NBFCs to consider the decision to roll out dividends in light
of certain definite factors, such as, (i) supervisory findings of the RBI on divergence in classification and provisioning of
NPAs, (ii) qualifications in the auditors report to the financial statements and (iii) long term growth plans of the NBFC.
193
NBFCs, other than NBFC-BL, that declare dividend have to report dividend declared during the financial year in the format
prescribed under the Scale Based Regulations.

Instructions on Managing Risks and Code of Conduct in Outsourcing of Financial Services by NBFCs

The Scale Based Regulations specify the activities that cannot be outsourced and also provide the basis for deciding
materiality of outsourcing. It mandates the regulatory and supervisory requirements and risk management practices to be
complied with by every NBFC before outsourcing its activities. Further, an NBFC intending to outsource any of the permitted
activities under the Scale Based Regulations is required to formulate an outsourcing policy which is to be approved by its
board of directors.

Master Circular – Non-Banking Financial Companies – Corporate Governance (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2015 dated
July 1, 2015 (the “Corporate Governance Directions”)

The RBI through the Corporate Governance Directions seeks to consolidate previously issued directions on corporate
governance of NBFCs, including NBFC-ND-SIs with an asset size of ₹ 5000 million and all NBFC-Ds. The Corporate
Governance Directions provide guidelines on composition of committees of the board of directors, disclosure and
transparency requirements to the board of directors and in annual financial statements, fit and proper criteria of the directors,
rotation of partners of the statutory auditors audit firm appointed by the NBFC, and framing of internal guidelines on
corporate governance.

guidelines, aiming to consolidate instructions applicable to various regulated entities on appointment and functioning of the
Internal Ombudsman. The Directions were introduced with the object of strengthening the internal grievance redress system
of the regulated entities bringing uniformity in matters such as escalation of complaints to the Internal Ombudsman,
qualifications for appointing the Internal Ombudsman, and the complaint redressal mechanism. Regulated entities are

significant among NBFCs, based on specified parameters. The top 10 NBFCs by asset size would be included in this
layer, and the applicable threshold for classification would be determined pursuant to parametric analysis. NBFC-
ULs would be subject to regulations applicable to NBFC-MLs as well certain additional capital, and governance
requirements more particularly set out in the SBR Framework.

Consumer Protection Act, 2019 (the “Consumer Protection Act”)

The Consumer Protection Act was designed and enacted to provide simpler and quicker access to redress consumer
grievances. It seeks, among other things, to promote and protect the interests of consumers against deficiencies and defects in
goods or services and secure the rights of a consumer against unfair trade practices, which may be practiced by
manufacturers, service providers and traders. The definition of “consumer” under the Consumer Protection Act includes
persons engaged in offline or online transactions through electronic means or by tele-shopping or direct selling or multi-level

rupees.

In line with the Consumer Protection Act, the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, Government of
India has also notified the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020 (“E-Commerce Rules”) which provides a
framework to regulate the marketing, sale and purchase of goods and services online. The E-Commerce Rules govern e-
commerce entities which own, operate, or manage a digital or electronic facility or platform for electronic commerce, and
sellers of products and services. The proposed amendment to these Rules, brought in on June 21, 2021, has widened the scope

operate in India with the Department of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT). It further mandated the appointment of a Chief
Compliance Officer, Nodal Contact Person, Resident Grievance Officer as part of an efficient redressal mechanism.

The Information Technology Act, 2000 (the “IT Act”) and the rules made thereunder

The IT Act seeks to: (i) provide legal recognition to transactions carried out by various means of electronic data interchange
involving alternatives to paper-based methods of communication and storage of information; (ii) facilitate electronic filing of
documents; and (iii) create a mechanism for the authentication of electronic documentation through digital signatures. The IT
Act provides for extraterritorial jurisdiction over any offence or contravention under the IT Act committed outside India by
any person, irrespective of their nationality, if the act or conduct constituting the offence or contravention involves a
computer, computer system or computer network located in India. Additionally, the IT Act empowers the Government of
India to direct any of its agencies to intercept, monitor or decrypt any information in the interest of sovereignty, integrity,
defence and security of India, friendly relations with foreign states or public order or preventing incitement to the commission
of any cognizable offence relating to an investigation of the offence. The Information Technology (Procedure and Safeguards
for Blocking for Access of Information by Public) Rules, 2009 specifically permit the Government of India to block access of
any information generated, transmitted, received, stored or hosted in any computer resource by the public, the reasons for
which are required to be recorded by it in writing.

The IT Act facilitates electronic commerce by recognizing contracts concluded through electronic means, protects
intermediaries in respect of third-party information liability and creates liability for failure to protect sensitive personal data.
The IT Act also prescribes civil and criminal liability including fines and imprisonment for computer related offences
including those relating to unauthorized access to computer systems, tampering with or unauthorised manipulation of any
computer, computer system or computer network and damaging computer systems, and creates liability for negligence in
dealing with or handling any sensitive personal data or information in a computer resource and in maintaining reasonable
security practices and procedures in relation thereto, among others.

The IT Act empowers the Government of India to formulate rules with respect to reasonable security practices and procedures
and sensitive personal data. In exercise of this power, the Department of Information Technology, (“DoIT”) Ministry of
Electronics and Information Technology, Government of India, in April 2011, notified the Information Technology
(Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011 (“IT Security
Rules”) which prescribe directions for the collection, disclosure, transfer and protection of sensitive personal data by a body
corporate or any person acting on behalf of a body corporate. The IT Security Rules require every such body corporate to
provide a privacy policy for handling and dealing with personal information, including sensitive personal data, ensuring
security of all personal data collected by it and publishing such policy on its website. The IT Security Rules further require
that all such personal data be used solely for the purposes for which it was collected, and any third party disclosure of such
data is made with the prior consent of the information provider, unless contractually agreed upon between them or where such
disclosure is mandated by law.

The DoIT also notified the Information Technology (Intermediaries Guidelines) Rules, 2021 (“IT Intermediary Rules”)
requiring intermediaries receiving, storing, transmitting, or providing any service with respect to electronic messages to
observe due diligence while publishing on its website or application and ensure that users do not host, display, upload,
modify, publish, transmit, store, update or share any information that belongs to another person, is defamatory, obscene,
pornographic, paedophilic, invasive of another‘s privacy, including bodily privacy, insulting or harassing on the basis of
gender, libellous, racially or ethnically objectionable, relating or encouraging money laundering or gambling, or otherwise

proprietary rights; violates any law for the time being in force; deceives or misleads the addressee about the origin of the
message or knowingly and intentionally communicates any information which is patently false or misleading in nature but
may reasonably be perceived as a fact; impersonates another person; threatens the unity, integrity, defence, security or
sovereignty of India, friendly relations with foreign States, or public order, or causes incitement to the commission of any
cognizable offence or prevents investigation of any offence or is insulting other nation; contains software virus or any other

false and untrue, and is written or published in any form, with the intent to mislead or harass a person, entity or agency for
financial gain or to cause any injury to any person; The IT Intermediary Rules mandate the appointment of a grievance officer

intermediaries not adhering to them.

202
The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (the “DPDP Act”)

The DPDP Act deals with the provisions relating to protection of personal and sensitive data by fiduciaries. As per the Act,
entities responsible for collecting, storing, and processing digital personal data are defined as data fiduciaries and have
defined obligations, that include maintaining security safeguards, ensuring completeness, accuracy, and consistency of
personal data; intimation of data breach in a prescribed manner to the Data Protection Board of India , data erasure on consent
withdrawal or on the expiry of the specified purpose, the data fiduciary having to appoint a data protection officer and set up
grievance redress mechanisms, and the consent of the parent/guardian being mandatory in the case of children/minors (those
under eighteen years of age). It also states that any processing that is likely to have a detrimental effect on a child is not
permitted. It prohibits tracking, behavioural monitoring, and targeted advertising directed at children. There is an additional
category of data fiduciaries known as significant data fiduciaries (“SDFs”). The government will designate data fiduciaries as
SDFs based on certain criteria—volume and sensitivity of data and risks to data protection rights, sovereignty and integrity,
electoral democracy, security, and public order. SDFs will have additional obligations that include appointing a data
protection officer based in India who will be answerable to the board of directors or the governing body of the SDF and will
also serve as the point of contact for grievance redressal; and conducting data protection impact assessments and audits and
taking other measures as prescribed by the government. Any form of non-compliance shall attract financial penalty as
prescribed in Schedule I of the DPDP Act which may extend to ₹2,500 million.

The Government of India is considering enacting legislation for non-personal data (“NPD”). In September 2019, the Ministry
of Electronics and Information Technology established the NPD Committee to propose regulations for NPD. The committee
has released two reports suggesting frameworks for NPD governance, access, sharing, and a registration regime for data
businesses. In May 2022, a draft National Data Governance Framework was issued, aiming to mobilize non-personal data for
public and private use, proposing a non-personal data-based India datasets program and outlining rules for secure access by
the research and innovation ecosystem.

Intellectual Property Laws

The Trade Marks Act, 1999 (the “Trade Marks Act”)

The Trade Marks Act governs the statutory protection of trademarks and prevention of the use of fraudulent marks in India. It
provides for the application and registration of trademarks in India. It also provides for exclusive rights to marks such as
brand, label, and heading and to obtain relief in case of infringement for commercial purposes as a trade description. Under
the provisions of the Trade Marks Act, an application for trade mark registration may be made with the Controller General of
Patents, Designs and Trademarks by any person or persons claiming to be the proprietor of a trade mark, whether individually
or as joint applicants, and can be made on the basis of either actual use or intention to use a trade mark in the future. Once
granted, a trade mark registration is valid for 10 years unless cancelled, subsequent to which, it can be renewed. If not
renewed, the mark lapses and the registration is required to be restored to gain protection under the provisions of the Trade
Marks Act. The Trade Marks Act prohibits registration of deceptively similar trademarks and provides penalties for
infringement, falsifying or falsely applying for trademarks. Further, pursuant to the notification of the Trade Marks
(Amendment) Act, 2010, simultaneous protection of trade mark in India and other countries has been made available to
owners of Indian and foreign trade marks. It also seeks to simplify the law relating to the transfer of ownership of trade marks
by assignment or transmission and to bring the law in line with international practices.

2 Basis of preparation (Contd..)
The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Group in preparation of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information and are consistent
with those adopted in the preparation of Audited Special Purpose Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months periods ended June 30,
2024 and June 30, 2023. These Restated Consolidated Financial Information do not reflect the effects of events that occurred subsequent to the respective
dates of auditor's reports on audited Special Purpose Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and the audited Consolidated Financial Statements
mentioned above.
The Restated Consolidated Financial Information:
a) Have been prepared after incorporating adjustments in respect of changes in the accounting policies, material errors, and regrouping/ reclassifications
retrospectively in the three months period ended June 30, 2023 and for the years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023, and March 31, 2022 to reflect the
same accounting treatment as per the accounting policies and grouping/ classifications followed as at and for the three months period ended June 30, 2024;
and
b) Do not require any adjustment for qualifications as there are no qualifications in the underlying auditors’ reports which require any adjustments.

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Group’s operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III
(Division II) to the Act. Based on the nature of services and the time between the acquisition of assets/ inputs for processing and their realisation of cash and
cash equivalents, the Group has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/ non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

The Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following -
- certain financial assets and liabilities is measured at fair value
- assets held for sale - measured at fair value less cost to sell or carrying amount, which ever is lower. [Refer note 36(a)(iv)]
- share-based payments. (Refer note 21)

Rounding off: All amounts disclosed in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information and notes have been rounded off to the nearest million with two
decimals as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated. Amounts mentioned as "0" in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information
denote amounts rounded off being less than Rupees five thousands.
The material accounting policies used in preparation of these Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been included in the relevant notes to these
Restated Consolidated Financial Information. A summary of other accounting policies has been provided in note 37.

Principles of consolidation
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity where the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns
from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the relevant activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are
fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group. The Group combines the Restated Consolidated Financial
Information of the parent and its subsidiaries line by line adding together like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses. Inter-Group
transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the
transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the Restated
Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss, Restated Consolidated Statement of Change in Equity and Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and
Liabilities respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standard)
Rules as issued from time to time. As of June 30, 2024, MCA has not notified any new standards or amendments to the existing standards applicable to the
Group that has not been applied.

3 Critical judgements and significant estimates


The preparation of financial information requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also
needs to exercise judgement in applying the Group’s accounting policies. This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of
judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than
those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about
the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial information. In addition, this note also explains where there have been actual adjustments
this year as a result of changes to previous estimates.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
a) Recognition of revenue - Refer note 14.
b) Impairment of financial assets - Refer note 24 (A).
c) Employee stock option plan - Fair value of option on the date of grant and forfeiture rate are the significant estimates. Refer note 21.
d) Valuation of embedded derivative - Refer note 10(c).
e) Recognition of deferred tax asset - Refer note 12.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical and other factors including expectation of future events that may have
financial impact on the Group and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

4 Property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets


Accounting policy
Property, plant and equipment
Depreciation method, estimated useful lives and residual value
Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as prescribed under part C of
the Schedule II of the Act or useful life based on technical evaluation done by management in order to reflect the actual usage of the assets. The
useful life, residual value and the depreciation method are reviewed atleast at each financial year end. If the expectations differ from previous
estimates, the changes are accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimate.
The estimates of useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Class of asset Useful life (in Useful life (in


years) adopted by years) as per
the Group Companies Act,
2013
Plant and machinery (Telematics devices) 2 years NA
Computer equipment 3 years 3 years
Office equipment 2-5 years 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 10 years 10 years
Motor vehicles 5 years 6 years

Leasehold improvements are amortised over the remaining lease term or the estimated useful life of 10 years, whichever is lower.
Intangible assets
Computer software acquired are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any. The Group amortises intangible assets
with finite useful life using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of 3 years.
Refer note 37(i) for other accounting policies.

5 Financial assets
Accounting policy
Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset (excluding trade receivables which do not contain a significant financing component) at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair
value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in
profit or loss.
Subsequent measurement
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
(a) those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss)
(b) those to be measured at amortised cost.

The Group does not carry any investments in equity instruments. Investments in mutual funds are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss as they do not meet the criteria for test of Solely
Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI), and are held for trading. Investments in bonds meets the SPPI criteria and are therefore subsequently measured at amortized cost. Refer note 37(ii) for other accounting
policies.

5(b) Trade receivables


Accounting policy
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business and reflects Group’s unconditional right to consideration
(that is, payment is due only on the passage of time). Trade receivables are recognised initially at the transaction price as they do not contain significant financing
components. The Group holds the trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised
cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance. Unbilled receivables where the Group has satisfied all performance obligations and hence has an
unconditional right to consideration are included under trade receivables.
For trade receivables only, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be
recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
The carrying amounts of the trade receivables include receivables from transport services which are subject to a factoring arrangement. Under this arrangement, the
Group has transferred the relevant receivables to the factor in exchange for cash and is prevented from selling or pledging the receivables. However, the Group has
retained late payment and credit risk. The Group therefore continues to recognise the transferred assets in their entirety in its balance sheet. The amount repayable under
the factoring agreement is presented as secured borrowing. The Group considers that the held to collect business model remains appropriate for these receivables and
hence continues measuring them at amortised cost. (Refer note 36 (a)(iv) for disclosure on assets held for sale).

5(e) Loans
The Group operates a subsidiary which is a Non-Banking Financial Corporation ("NBFC"), Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited, that provides loans to customers. The
Group earns interest income on loans disbursed by the subsidiary. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate (EIR) to the gross carrying amount
of financial assets other than credit-impaired assets. Interest income on credit impaired assets is recognized by applying the effective interest rate to the net amortised
cost (net of impairment allowance) of the financial asset.
The key accounting estimates used in the preparation of the financial statement relates to the estimation of impairment amounts to be provided in case of financial assets
including loans under "expected credit loss" (ECL) model. The ECL allowance is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset (the lifetime
expected credit loss), unless there has been no significant increase in credit risk since origination, in which case, the allowance is based on the 12 months’ expected
credit loss. Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is
the portion of Lifetime ECL that represent the ECLs that result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting
date. 12 month ECL's is calculated for assets classified as Stage 1 and Lifetime ECL's is calculated for loans classified as Stage 2 or Stage 3.

The subsidiary has established a policy to perform an assessment, at the end of each reporting period, of whether a financial instrument’s credit risk has increased
significantly since initial recognition, by considering the change in the risk of default occurring over the remaining life of the financial instrument. The Group does the
assessment of significant increase in credit risk at a borrower level.

Based on the above, the Group categorises its loans into Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 as described below:
DPD status (*) Stage
Current Stage 1
1-30 days Stage 1
31-90 days Stage 2
90+ days Stage 3
(*) Days Past Due date
Expected Credit Loss or ECL is measured in the following manner:

The Group calculates ECL based on probability weighted scenarios to measure the expected cash shortfalls, discounted at an approximation to the EIR. A cash shortfall
is the difference between the cash flows that are due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive.

ECL = PD*LGD*EAD

These terms are defined below:


- Probability of default (PD) - PD is an estimate of the likelihood of default over a given time horizon, the calculation of which includes historical data, assumptions and
expectations of future conditions, which is obtained from an external credit rating agency.
- Exposure at Default (EAD) - The Exposure at Default is an estimate of the exposure at a future default date.
- Loss Given Default (LGD) - The Loss Given Default is an estimate of the loss arising in the case where a default occurs at a given time. It is based on the difference
between the contractual cash flows due and those that the Group would expect to receive, including from the realisation of any collateral.

Collateral valuation:
To mitigate its credit risks on financial assets, the Group seeks to use collateral, where possible. The collateral is on the movable assets i.e. vehicles of the borrowers.
However, the fair value of collateral affects the calculation of ECL and the fair value is based on data provided by third party or management judgements.

8 Equity
Accounting policy
Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements
and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group
are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Compound financial instruments


The component parts of compound financial instruments issued by the Group are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance
of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is
estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for a similar non-convertible instrument. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortised cost basis using the
effective interest method until extinguished upon conversion or at the instrument’s maturity date. The equity component is determined by deducting the amount of the
liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognised and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not
subsequently remeasured.

September 11, 2021, as fully paid up.

Series A, B, B1, C, C1, C2, D and E have preferential rights. These shares will carry a cumulative dividend of 0.01% p.a. on as if converted basis. In addition to
same, if the holders of Equity Shares are paid dividend in excess of 0.01% p.a., the holders of CCPS shall be entitled to dividend at such higher rate.
The shareholders may convert the CCPS in whole or part into equity shares at any time before 19 years from the date of issuance of the respective CCPS. The record
date for the conversion would be considered and shall be deemed to be the date on which the holder of CCPS issues a notice of conversion to the Holding Company.

The Series A CCPS shall convert into such number of equity shares that is equal to the Series A CCPS price divided by the conversion price, which shall initially be
the Series A CCPS price (1:1 conversion). The Series B CCPS shall convert into such number of equity shares that is equal to the Series B CCPS price divided by the
conversion price, which shall initially be the Series B CCPS price (1:1 conversion). The Series B1 CCPS shall convert into such number of equity shares that is
equal to the Series B1 CCPS price divided by the conversion price, which shall initially be the Series B1 CCPS price (1 : 1.1664 conversion). The Series C CCPS
shall convert into such number of equity shares that is equal to the Series C CCPS price divided by the conversion price, which shall initially be the Series C CCPS
price (1:1 conversion). The Series C1 CCPS shall convert into such number of equity shares that is equal to the Series C1 CCPS price divided by the conversion
price, which shall initially be the Series C1 CCPS price (1 : 0.3703 conversion). The Series C2 CCPS shall convert into such number of equity shares that is equal to
the Series C2 CCPS price divided by the conversion price, which shall initially be the Series C2 CCPS price (1 : 0.3551 conversion). The Series D CCPS shall
convert into such number of equity shares that is equal to the Series D CCPS price divided by the conversion price, which shall initially be the Series D CCPS price
(1:1 conversion). The Series E CCPS shall convert into such number of equity shares that is equal to Series E CCPS price divided by the conversion Price, which
shall initially be the Series E CCPS price (1:1.0114 conversion). On conversion the fractional shares will be converted to the nearest whole number.

CCPS also has the valuation protection i.e. if the Holding Company issues any dilutive instrument to a new investor or a third party after the closing date, at a price
less than the effective conversion price of Series A, Series B, Series B1, Series C, Series C1, Series C2, Series D and Series E CCPS then the holders of Series A, B,
B1, C, C1, C2, D and E CCPS shall be respectively, entitled to a broad based weighted average basis anti-dilution protection in accordance with the shareholders
agreement.
Holders of CCPS shall be entitled to attend the meetings of shareholders of the Holding Company and shall be entitled to the same number of votes for each shares of
CCPS as holder of one equity share, however on conversion the number of votes associated each series A, B, B1, C, C1, C2, D and E CCPS will change accordingly.
The holder of CCPS shall be entitled to vote on all such matters which affect their rights directly or indirectly.

Refer note 10(c) for rights of Series D partly paid CCPS and (x) below for the conversion into fully paid up. Refer note (ix) below for change in conversion ratio
during the three months period ended June 30, 2024. Also refer note 39(i) for change in conversion ratio subsequent to June 30, 2024 and note 39(ii) for conversion

10(c) Other financial liabilities

Accounting policy
Initial recognition and measurement of financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities


Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities ‘at FVTPL’ or ‘amortised cost’.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL


Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL.
A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:
• it has been acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term; or
• on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group manages together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of
short-term profit-taking; or
• it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.
A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading may also be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:
• such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
• the financial liability forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in
accordance with the Group's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
• it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments permits the entire combined contract to be designated as at
FVTPL.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss,
except for the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability which is recognised in other
comprehensive income.
The net gain or loss recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost:
Financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The effective
interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the
rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying
amount on initial recognition.

Embedded derivatives in host liabilities

Derivatives, in the form of right to subscribe, embedded in host liabilities are separated only if the economic characteristics and risk of embedded derivatives are not closely
related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host and are measured at FVTPL. Embedded derivative closely related to the host contracts are not separated.
Refer note 37(v) for other accounting policies.
Exceptional items
Exceptional items are material items of income or expense that are disclosed separately in the financial statement due to their nature or incidence where such presentation is
relevant for understanding of the financial performance of the Company.

10(c) Other financial liabilities (Contd..)

The Holding Company had granted certain lenders (including erstwhile lenders of non-current borrowings) the right to subscribe to its Series C CCPS or partly-paid Series D
CCPS (where the lenders have right to call) which can be exercised by the lenders at any time before the expiration date as per the terms of the agreements. This has been
treated as a derivative embedded in the host contract and are separated from the host contract as the economic characteristics and risk of embedded derivatives are not closely
related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host. These are measured at FVTPL.
(ii) During the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the right to subscribe CCPS agreements have been amended wherein the lenders have agreed to absolutely,
irrevocably and unconditionally waive, relinquish, terminate and surrender its Right to Subscribe in consideration of liquidated damages aggregating to Rs. 222.54 million
payable to the lenders and the balance Rs. 256.23 million, being no longer payable has been recognised as a gain on settlement and disclosed as an exceptional item in
Annexure II - Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss for the three months period ended June 30, 2024.
(iii) The Holding Company had issued right to subscribe to 618 series C CCPS to Axis Bank for the sanctioned loan facility of Rs. 250.00 million. Upon the closure of the
loan facility with the bank, vide letter dated November 03, 2023, the Bank has waived its right to subscribe to Series C CCPS. The gain on such waiver has been recognised in
Annexure II - Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss under other gains.
(iv) The right to subscribe to CCPS granted by the Group are derived and valued based on the following assumptions:

11 Provisions

Accounting policy

Gratuity obligations
The liability recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities in respect of defined benefit gratuity plan is the present value of the
defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets, if any. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by
actuary using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the
reporting period on government securities that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the balance of the defined benefit obligation. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in
the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur,
directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Restated
Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments
are recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.

The leave obligations cover the Group's privilege leave. The entire amount of provision of compensated absences of Rs. 46.79 million (June 30, 2023: Rs. 45.43
million; March 31, 2024: Rs. 42.99 million; March 31, 2023: Rs. 42.60 million; March 31, 2022: Rs. 42.36 million) is presented as current, since the Group does
not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for these obligations. However, based on past experience, the Group does not expect all employees to avail
the full amount of accrued leave or require payment for such leave within the next 12 months.

(ii) Gratuity
The Group provides for gratuity to employees as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, as amended from time to time. Employees who are in continuous service
for a period of 5 years are eligible for gratuity. The amount of gratuity payable on retirement/ termination is the employees last drawn basic salary per month
computed proportionately for 15 days salary multiplied for the number of years of service. The Group does not externally fund these liabilities but instead creates
an accounting provisions in its books of accounts and pay the gratuity to its employees directly from its own resources as and when the employee leaves the
Group.
Notes:
(a) The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian Government Securities as at the reporting dates for the estimated term of obligations.

(b) The estimated future salary increases considered in actuarial valuation takes into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors such as
supply and demand in the employment market.

11 Provisions (Contd..)
Gratuity (Defined benefit obligation)
C. Sensitivity analysis
When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the defined benefit
obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability
recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any reasonable changes to discount rate, salary escalation rate and attrition rate are
not expected to have a material impact on profit or loss.

D. Risk exposure
Inherent risk:
The plan is of a final salary defined benefit in nature which is sponsored by the Group and hence it underwrites all the risks pertaining to the plan. In particular,
there is a risk for the Group that any adverse salary growth or demographic experience can result in an increase in cost of providing these benefits to employees
in future. Since the benefits are lump sum in nature, the plan is not subject to any longevity risks.
Change in bond yields:
A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the defined benefit obligation.
Life expectancy:
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to future salaries of the plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of
then plan participants will increase the plan's liability.

E. Defined benefit liability and employer contributions


The Group does not externally fund these liabilities but instead create an accounting provision in its books of accounts and pay the gratuity to its employees
directly from its own resources as and when the employee leaves the Group.

(iii) Others
The Group provides privilege leaves to contract employees. The liability is actuarially determined and the entire amount of provision is presented as current,
since the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for these obligations and presented under other provisions. However, based on past
experience, the Group does not expect all employees to avail the full amount of accrued leave or require payment for such leave within the next 12 months.

12 Deferred tax liabilities (net)


Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax asset has
not been recognised on unabsorbed depreciation, carry forward tax losses and deductible temporary differences as it is not probable that future taxable profits will be available before such losses expire against which the Group can use the
benefits therefrom.

14 Revenue from operations

Accounting policy
The Group owns digital platforms which are used by truck operators (customers) to digitally manage payments for tolling and fueling, monitor drivers and fleets
using telematics, find loads on platform (marketplace) and get access to financing for the purchase of used vehicles.

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer net of variable consideration e.g. incentives or any payments made to a
customer (unless the payment is for a distinct good or service received from the customer) and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group
recognises revenue when it transfers control over a service to a customer. Revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal
will not occur.

Where the Group acts as an agent for selling goods or services, only the commission income is included within revenue. The specific revenue recognition criteria
described below must also be met before revenue is recognized. Typically, the Group has a right to payment before or at a point services are delivered. Cash
received before the services are delivered is recognised as a contract liability. The amount of consideration generally does not contain a significant financing
component as payment terms are less than one year, except in relation to commission income on sourcing, servicing and collection of loans on behalf of the financial
institutions.
Commission income:
Commission income includes commission income from Oil Marketing Companies (OMC's) for distribution and management of fuel cards and commission from
banks for distribution and management of Fastags. The Group considers OMCs and banks as its customers.

Commission income on fuel cards and fastags:


The Group facilitates distribution and management of fuel cards and Fastags and earns commission for respective services. In both these services, the Group stands
ready to provide the services and the commission income is based on the usage of the services by the end consumers. Revenue for these services is recorded in the
period in which it accrues.

Subscription fee:
The Group charges subscription fees from its customers for telematics based fleet management solutions and subscription to access specific services on the platform.
Such income is recognised over the period of the subscription as the Group satisfies its performance obligation as services are rendered.

The Group enters into subscription contracts typically for a period of one month to three years. As the Group fulfil its obligations over the tenure of subscription,
these are presented as deferred revenue under contract liability in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Even though the Group offers plans
of more than one year to its customers where the subscription price is received upfront, the Group has determined that the purpose of such terms is not financing.
Accordingly it is determined that there are no significant financing components in such arrangements.

The Group also earns subscription fees from fleet operators for the use of fuel cards issued under the OMC 's membership plan for services such as recharge of fuel
cards, issue resolution through dedicated customer support, notification alerts, transaction history. Revenue from such services are recognized over the estimated
period of usage of the fuel cards. Further, the Group grants certain loyalty points to the fleet owners based on the recharges made on the fuel card. Such points can be
used by the fleet owners for purchasing the fuel from OMCs. The Group has determined payments to OMCs on utilisation of such points by the fleet owners as
consideration payable to customer and thus has netted it off against such service fees collected from the customers.
Service fees:
Service fees comprises of following streams of income:
a. The Group earns fees from issuance/ replacement, activation and installation convenience of Fastags to the fleet operators. The revenue for this service is
recognized at a point in time when the service is provided to the customers.
b. The Group charges certain transaction fees from the fleet owners on recharges of the Fastags. The revenue from this service is recognised at a point in time when
the service is provided to the customer.
c. The Group provides access to the platform for buying and selling of second-hand commercial vehicles. The Group charges fees to the customer which is
recognised at a point in time when the transaction between the parties is executed. The Group is an agent in such arrangement.
d. Sourcing, loan servicing and collection fees: The Group acts as a business correspondent for financial institutions/ bank where the Group provides services such as
sourcing loans, loan servicing, collection services and onboarding of the borrowers. The Group receives processing fees for onboarding the borrowers which is
recognized at a point in time when the onboarding services are completed.
e. The Group earns revenue from servicing or replacement of telematics devices to customers. The revenue for this service is recognised at a point in time when the
service is provided to the customer.

The consideration from sourcing loans, loan servicing, collection services is based on a pre-determined fixed percentage of interest. The Group receives
consideration from sourcing loans only when the equated monthly installments are paid by the borrowers. Revenue from providing this service is recognised over the
period of time in which the services are rendered and as the customer benefits from the service. Consideration is variable and is highly susceptible to factors outside
the entity's influence. Revenue is recognised only when it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur.
Amount receivable from the financial institutions for which the Group has fulfilled its obligations is classified under "trade receivable" as the Group has
unconditional right over such consideration (i.e. if only the passage of time is required before payment of such consideration is due).

14 Revenue from operations (Contd..)


Interest income on loans disbursed (lending business by NBFC subsidiary):
The Group operates a subsidiary which is an NBFC, Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited, that provides loans to customers. The Group earns interest income on loans
disbursed by the subsidiary. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate (EIR) to the gross carrying amount of financial assets other than
credit-impaired assets.
The EIR in case of financial asset is computed as:
a. As the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.
b. By considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument in estimating the cash flows.
c. Including all fees received/ paid between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs, and all other premiums or
discounts.

Any subsequent changes in the estimation of the future cash flows is recognized in interest income with the corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the
assets. Interest income on credit impaired assets is recognized by applying the effective interest rate to the net amortised cost (net of impairment allowance) of the
financial asset.

Freight services:
The Group operates a trucking network through its freight and fleet management services. Revenue from such contracts is recognised over the period of the services
as the customer simultaneously receives benefits as the services are performed by the Group. The Group is assessed as principal in this arrangement. (Refer note 36

(c) Contract liability


The Holding Company has certain subscription income and an aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to such subscription agreement that are partially or
fully unsatisfied as at the reporting date is Rs. 588.63 million (June 30, 2023: Rs. 476.47 million; March 31, 2024: Rs. 550.58 million; March 31, 2023: Rs. 414.00
million; March 31, 2022: Rs. 251.41 million). Management expects Rs. 557.45 million (June 30, 2023: Rs. 441.82 million; March 31, 2024: Rs. 522.68 million;
March 31, 2023: Rs. 414.00 million; March 31, 2022: Rs. 251.41 million) to be recognised in the next 12 months. The remaining is expected to be recognised in the
next 2 years.
(d) Critical judgement in revenue recognition:
The Group has entered into agreement with banks to provide services to distribute and manage Fastags for which the Group earns commission from banks as and
when the services are rendered. The Group also delivers and assists fleet operators install and activate Fastags and onboards them on to the Holding Company's
platform and earns fees from issuance/replacement, activation and installation convenience of Fastags. The Group has considered the services described above as
two distinct services.

21 Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP)


Accounting policy
Share based compensation benefits are provided to certain employees under the Employee Stock Option Plan 2016, Employee Stock Option Plan 2019 and Management Stock Options Plan (MSOP) (collectively called as "ESOP plan").

The fair value of options granted under the ESOP plan, which are equity settled plans, are recognised as an employee benefits expense with the corresponding increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the
fair value of the options granted.

The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to
vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity, where shares are forfeited due to a failure by the
employee to satisfy the vesting conditions, any expenses previously recognised in relation to such shares are reversed effective from the date of the forfeiture. In case where the Group re-purchases vested equity instruments, the payment made to
employees are accounted as a deduction from equity, except to the extent that payment exceeds the fair value of the equity instruments re-purchased, measured at the re-purchased date. Any such excess are recognised as an expense in the
Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

eligible employees of the Holding Company with a capping of 15,489 options, monitored and supervised by the Compensation Committee from time to time. Eligible employees are granted an option to purchase equity shares of the Holding
Company, subject to vesting conditions as set out in the ESOP Plan 2016. The said stock options vest in a graded manner over a period of 4 years as set out in the option holder's Stock Option Agreement, subject to minimum period of 12 months
between the grant date of the option and the vesting date of the option.
Options granted under the plan are equity settled. The holder of the options is entitled to receive one equity share for each option. Unvested options are forfeited upon separation.

C) MSOP plan
The shareholders of the Holding Company had consented to a proposed MSOP plan, under which the Holding Company had proposed to grant stock options equivalent to 10,750 equity shares of Re. 1/- each, subject to applicable laws out of
which stock options equivalent to 3,485 equity shares were deemed to be vested immediately on grant date and remaining stock options equivalent to 7,265 equity shares would vest on achievement of a specified valuation event.

The Holding Company had not taken any corporate actions or any other steps including obtaining necessary board and shareholders approvals as required under the Act and applicable rules and issuing grant letter for giving effect to the
commercial understanding with one of the founder director. However, the grant date was established on consent by the shareholders, as there was a shared understanding on the general terms and conditions of the awards.

Considering that the services were already rendered for stock options equivalent to 3,485 equity shares, and considering that the founder director had started rendering the services towards stock options equivalent to 7,265 equity shares, the
Holding Company had recognised the expenses towards such awards under Ind AS 102, Share based payments.

The fair value of the award for 7,265 options has been determined under the Binomial mode. The assumptions used in this model for calculating the fair value are as below:
Assumptions June 30, 2024 June 30, 2023 March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022

Fair value of option on the date of grant (in Rs.) - - - - Rs. 167,377.18 and

Expected life - - - - 4.59 years
Expected annual volatility of shares - - - - 50%
Weighted average contractual life - - - - 5 years
Expected dividend yield - - - - 0%

The Board of Directors of the Holding Company, on March 19, 2024 passed a resolution to revoke and cancel the above options. As per the requirements of Ind AS 102, this cancellation of the said unvested options, resulted into an accelerated
stock option compensation charge of Rs. 800.45 million has been accounted in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss during the year ended March 31, 2024.

22 Fair value measurement
(i) Financial instruments by category and fair value hierarchy
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income or fair value through Profit and Loss
and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining the fair value, the Group has
classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the Ind AS. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes quoted bonds that have quoted price.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, traded bonds, mutual funds) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as
possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
There are no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the period/ year.
The Group's policy is to recognise transfer into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.
(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value
Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include;
- The use of available net assets value per unit for investments in mutual funds.
- The Right to subscribe CCPS arrangements with lenders - have been valued using Black Scholes Model. Refer note 10(c) for details of inputs used in the valuation.
(iii) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost
The carrying amounts of borrowings and lease liabilities are considered to be the same as their fair values since the rate of interest is at market rate.
For security deposits and inter-corporate deposits, interest rates are evaluated by the Group based on parameters such as interest rates and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Fair value of such instruments is not materially
different from their carrying amounts.
The carrying amounts of trade receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, other financial assets and other financial liabilities are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to their short-term nature.
The fair value is determined base on discounted cash flows using current rate.
23 Capital management

The Management assesses the Group’s capital requirements in order to maintain an efficient overall financing structure while avoiding excessive leverage. This takes into account the subordination levels of the Group’s various classes of debt.

The Group manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust
the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares, or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Group monitors capital on the basis of the following gearing ratio:
• net debt (total borrowings and lease liabilities net of cash and cash equivalents and liquid investments)
• divided by total ‘equity’ (as shown in the balance sheet).

The Group has complied with loan covenants during and as at the end of the reporting periods.

A. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counter-party fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Group is exposed to credit risks from its operating activities, primarily loans, trade receivables, cash and cash
equivalents, deposits with banks/ financial institutions, inter-corporate deposits, security deposits and investments in bonds.

Based on business environment in which the Group operates, a default on a financial asset is considered when the counter party fails to make payments within the agreed time period as per contract. Loss rates reflecting defaults are based
on actual credit loss experience and considering differences between current and historical economic conditions. Assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a borrower declaring bankruptcy or a
litigation decided against the Group. The Group continues to engage with parties whose balances are written off and attempts to enforce repayment. Recoveries made are recognised in Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

Impairment of financial assets


The Group has three types of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss model:
a) Trade receivables
b) Loans from lending business carried at amortised cost
c) Security deposits
While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements of Ind AS 109, the identified impairment loss was immaterial.
(i) Deposits with banks and financial institutions, inter-corporate deposits and cash and cash equivalents
Deposits, inter-corporate deposits and cash and cash equivalents with banks and other financial institutions are considered to be having negligible risk or nil risk, as they are maintained with high rated banks or financial institutions.
Deposits with banks where its outlook changes to negative, the Group reassesses its deposit strategy.

(ii) Investment in bonds


No expected credit loss allowance has been created for investments in bonds as these investments are placed with institutions with high credit rating and hence, carry low credit risk.
(iii) Security deposits
Security deposit paid to customers carry certain amount of credit risk. The Group considers past history of recovery of such deposits, considers whether the Group continues to have transactions with these parties and also future
recoverability basis which a loss allowance is made in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

(iv) Trade receivables
The Group applies the simplified approach to provide for expected credit loss prescribed by Ind AS 109, which permits the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all the trade receivables. Determination of expected credit losses
includes consideration of forward looking information. The loss allowance is determined as follows:
Expected credit loss for trade receivables is computed as per the simplified approach based on ageing of receivables, information about past events, current conditions and forward looking information.
In respect of trade receivables from truck operator services, collection is received within an average of 30-45 days. Historically, such receivables have carried insignificant risk of credit loss. In respect of receivables from customer for
corporate freight business, considering there is a higher risk of credit loss, the Group monitors these separately.
Refer note 36(a)(iv) for receivables from discontinued operations.

(v) Loans
The subsidiary, BlackBuck Finserve Private Limited is engaged in the business of providing loans and access to credit to the truck operators.

Credit risk is the risk that a customer will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group’s primary strategy is focused on lending to retail customers and therefore credit risk is the principal risk
associated with the business.
The Group considers a financial instrument defaulted and therefore Stage 3 (credit-impaired) for ECL calculations in all cases when the borrower becomes 90 days past due on its contractual payments.

As a part of a qualitative assessment of whether a customer is in default, the Group also considers a variety of instances that may indicate unlikeliness to pay. When such events occur, the Group carefully considers whether the event
should result in treating the customer as defaulted and therefore assessed as Stage 3 for ECL calculations or whether Stage 2 is appropriate. It is the Group’s policy to consider a financial instrument upgradation from stage 3 when the
entire arrears of interest and principal has been paid for all facilities availed. The Group has estimated a loss allowance provision of 0.40% on its portfolio on such loans as at March 31, 2024 and 0.40% on its portfolio on such loans as at
June 30, 2024.

Refer note 5(e) for the Group's policy on ECL on loans provided.
The below disclosure is not applicable for the three months period ended June 30, 2023 and for the years ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, since the subsidiary has received a non-deposit-taking NBFC license on August 01,
2023 and commenced operations in October 2023. Refer note 1.

B. Liquidity risk
The risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Liquidity risk management implies maintenance of sufficient cash
including availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet the obligations as and when due.

The Group manages its liquidity risk by ensuring as far as possible that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its short term and long term liabilities as and when due. Anticipated future cash flows, undrawn committed credit facilities are
expected to be sufficient to meet the liquidity requirements of the Group. The Group has a credit facility of Rs. 4,380.00 million (June 30, 2023: Rs. 4,010.00 million; March 31, 2024: Rs. 4,120.00 million; March 31, 2023: Rs. 3,401.80
million; March 31, 2022: Rs. 3,800.00 million) in the form of bills discounting and overdraft facility. The bank overdraft facilities may be drawn at any time and may be terminated by the bank without notice.

C. Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises two types of risk: interest rate risk and other price risk, such as equity price
risk. The Group's treasury team manages the market risk, which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The Group does not have any significant foreign currency transactions and
hence is not exposed to the foreign currency risks.
(i) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Certain short term borrowings of the Group carry variable rates of interest. Hence, the
Group is subject to interest rate risk on such borrowings. Refer note below for disclosure of interest rate disclosure.
(a) Interest rate risk exposure
As at the end of reporting period, the Group had the following variable rate of borrowings outstanding:

June 30, 2024 % total June 30, 2023 % total March 31, 2024 % total March 31, 2023 % total March 31, 2022 % total

*Holding all variables constant

(ii) Securities price risk


The Group’s exposure to price risk arises from investments held and classified in the consolidated balance sheet as fair value through profit or loss. To manage the price risk arising from investments, the Group diversifies its portfolio of
assets in the form of investing in short and long term deposits and diversified mutual funds.
Sensitivity
Below is the sensitivity of profit or loss on account of investments in mutual funds. The analysis is based on the assumption that NAV has increased/ decreased by 5% with all other variables held constant, and that all the Group's
instruments moved in line with the NAV.

Notes:
(i) Pursuant to an agreement dated December 30, 2022 the Group sold its subsidiary, Blackbuck Poland Spółka z, Poland with effect from August 31, 2022 at PLN 8.45 per share to a third party and accordingly
it has recognised a loss of Rs. 39.70 million on sales of net assets in the subsidiary under other gain/loss of the discontinued operations. Refer note 36(b).
(ii) On June 12, 2023, the Group liquidated its wholly owned subsidiary, Blackbuck Netherlands B.V., Netherland and accordingly it has recognised a loss of Rs. 0.53 million on liquidation of net assets under

27 Segment information
Accounting policy
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). Chairman, Managing Director
and Chief Executive Officer is identified as CODM who assesses the financial performance and position of the Group, and makes strategic decisions.
The Group is engaged in providing services to empower truck operators and corporates to efficiently manage their business and maximise their earnings through logistics
technology platforms ("Truck operator services"). Further, Blackbuck Finserve Private Limited (a subsidiary) has received a non-banking financial company license on
August 01, 2023 and commenced "Lending business" in October 2023. Accordingly, Group's business activity primarily falls within two operating segments during the
financial year ended March 31, 2024 and three months period ended June 30, 2024 and segment wise disclosure has been presented below. All the revenues are generated
from the customers located in India. None of the non-current assets are held by the Group outside India during the current financial year. During the prior periods including
three months period ended June 30, 2023, the Group's business activity falls within a single operating segment, i.e., truck operator services and segment wise disclosure is
not applicable.
Total revenue includes Rs. 300.60 million (June 30, 2023: Rs. 240.30 million; March 31, 2024: Rs. 995.11 million; March 31, 2023: Rs. 698.16 million; March 31, 2022:
Rs. 641.31 million) from one customer (June 30, 2023: one customer; March 31, 2024: one customer; March 31, 2023: one customer; March 31, 2022: one customer) who
individually contributed more than 10% of the total revenue of current financial year.
The CODM primarily uses a measure of Adjusted EBITDA(as defined below) to assess the performance of the operating segments. The CODM also receives information
about the segments’ revenue and assets/ liabilities.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA refers to restated profit/ (loss) before exceptional item and tax from continuing operations adjusted for (a) depreciation and amortisation; (b) finance
cost; (c) employee share-based payment expenses; and (d) other gains/ losses (net).
Segment revenue
Sales between segments are carried out at arm’s length and are eliminated on consolidation. The segment revenue is measured in the same way as in the Restated
Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
Segment assets
Segment assets are measured in the same way as in the financial statements. These assets are allocated based on the operations of the segment and the physical location of
the asset.
Segment liabilities
Segment liabilities are measured in the same way as in the financial statements. These liabilities are allocated based on the operations of the segment.

29 Leases
Accounting policy

The Group’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for office premises. The Group assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or
contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the
right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group assesses whether:
(i) the contact involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Group has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the
Group has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Group recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee,
except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the Group recognizes the lease payments as
an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease
Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is
reasonably certain that they will be exercised.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the
commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses,
if any.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. Right-of-use assets
are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the
recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that
are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not
readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases.
Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset if the Group changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a
termination option.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities and lease payments have been classified as financing
cash flows in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
Refer note 37(x) for other accounting policies.
Rental contracts for leases of office premises and residential accommodations are typically entered for fixed periods of 11 months to 5 years, but may have extension options as
explained below.

million (including interest payments of Rs. 3.81 million)]

Extension and termination options are included in a number of property leases across the Group. These terms are used to maximise operational flexibility in terms of managing
contracts. The majority of termination options held are exercisable only by the Group and not by the respective lessor.
In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination
option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated).
For leases of office premises the factor which is normally most relevant is - historical lease duration and the cost of business disruption required to replace the leased asset.

31 Restated earnings/ (loss) per equity share

Accounting policy
(i) Basic earnings/ (loss) per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
• the profit/loss attributable to owners of the Group.
• by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period/ year.
(ii) Diluted earnings/ (loss) per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
• the after income tax effect of interest, other gains/ losses and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and
• the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

31 Restated earnings/ (loss) per equity share (Contd..)


(f) Notes:
- The Group has unvested employee stock options which are potential equity shares and have an anti-dilutive effect for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and years ended March
31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022. Hence, these have been excluded in the computation of weighted average number of shares.
- The earnings/ (loss) per share reflects the impact of bonus shares issuance in the ratio of 1:550 during the three months period ended June 30, 2024 [Refer note 8(a)(ix)].
- There are right to subscribe/ right to call options (potential equity shares which are financial liability in nature) as on June 30, 2023, March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March
31, 2022. As these are anti-dilutive for continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, they are not considered
in the calculation of diluted (loss) per share and accordingly, the restated diluted (loss) per share is the same as restated basic (loss) per share for the three months period ended June
30, 2023 and years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. Options are dilutive at the level of restated loss from continuing operations for the year ended March 31, 2022 and
have been treated as dilutive for the purpose of diluted EPS.

34 Going concern
The Group is in the process of expanding its operations and also investing on technology and hence is currently incurring cash losses.

Based on the business plan and projected cash flows for the next 12 months, the Board of Directors does not foresee any material uncertainty regarding the Group's ability to
continue as a going concern for foreseeable future and accordingly, these Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been prepared on a going concern basis.

35 As the Group has incurred losses during the years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, dividend on 256,485 (June 30, 2023: 256,904; March 31, 2024:
256,904; March 31, 2023: 256,904; March 31, 2022: 256,904) 0.01% CCPS has not been proposed. The arrears of such dividend amounts to Rs. 0.00 million (June 30, 2023: Rs.

36 Discontinued operations
Accounting Policy
Non-Current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through
continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that
are usual and customary for sales of such asset (or disposal group) and its sale is highly probable. Management must be committed to the sale, which should be expected to
qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification.

Non-Current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell except for those assets
that are specifically exempt under relevant Ind AS. Once the assets are classified as “Held for sale”, those are not subjected to depreciation till disposal.

An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of the asset (or disposal group) to fair value less costs to sell. A gain is recognised for any
subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset (or disposal group), but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. A gain or loss
not previously recognised by the date of the sale of the non-current asset (or disposal group) is recognised at the date of derecognition.

Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from the other assets in the Restated
Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed off or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate line of business or
geographical area of operations, is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a
view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

(a) Disposal of Groups corporate freight business:


(i) Description
On January 25, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a plan to dispose off the Group's corporate freight business division consistent with the Group's long-term strategy.
Also, on March 22, 2024 the Group entered into a non-binding term sheet which was superseded by a binding agreement dated June 26, 2024 with a third party/buyer to
dispose off the said business line on a going concern basis and subsequently entered into a Business Transfer Agreement (BTA) on August 5, 2024 and transferred all
identified assets and liabilities to the buyer on August 22, 2024 ("Divestment") for a total consideration of Rs. 958.54 million (including cash consideration of Rs. 408.73
million and deferred consideration of Rs. 549.81 million). The Group had received a non-refundable advance of Rs. 10.00 million from the said third party/ buyer as at
March 31, 2024, which was adjusted towards the cash consideration upon the business transfer.

The Group has also invested the sale consideration received in cash amounting to Rs. 408.73 million to acquire 6.29% stake in the buyer company by subscribing to the
equity shares of the buyer company. In respect of the deferred consideration, which is equal to the net assets taken over as at August 22, 2024 will be paid by the buyer
company before February 28, 2025 subject to the following adjustments
(a)any amount in respect of trade receivables collected by the Group during the period August 23, 2024 to February 28, 2025
(b)any amount received by the buyer company in respect of trade receivables shall be transferred by the buyer company to the Group forthwith on an ongoing basis

Notwithstanding (a) and (b) above, all such balance amounts outstanding as on February 28, 2025 in relation to trade receivables shall be waived off by the Group against
the deferred consideration.

As on March 31, 2024, the Group determined that corporate freight business met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and discontinued operations. Accordingly, the
related assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as at June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024 and the
results of corporate freight business were classified as discontinued operations and are presented separately in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss for the
three months period ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 and for the years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022.

37 Summary of other accounting policies


The material accounting policies adopted in preparation of Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been disclosed in the pertinent note along with
other information. Other accounting policies are described below. All accounting policies has been consistent applied to all the period presented in the Restated
Consolidated Financial Information unless otherwise stated.
(i) Property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses if any.
Cost of property, plant and equipments and intangible assets comprises of the purchase price including import duties and non-refundable taxes, and directly
attributable expenses incurred to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of being operated in the manner intended by
management. Subsequent costs related to an item of PPE are recognised in the carrying amount of the item if the recognition criteria are met.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or
loss arising on derecognition is recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

Intangible assets
Costs associated with maintaining software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
Assessment is done at each Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities date as to whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.
For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable Group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of
the cash inflows from other assets or Group of assets, is considered as a cash generating unit. If any such indication exists, an estimate of the recoverable
amount of the asset/ cash generating unit is made. Assets whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is higher of an asset's or cash generating unit's net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future
cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Restated
Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior accounting
periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. An impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had previously been recognised.

(ii) Financial assets


(a) Recognition
Regular way purchases and sale of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, being the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sale the financial
assets.

(b) Classification of financial assets


A) Classification of financial assets at amortised cost:
The Group classifies its financial assets at amortised cost only if both of the following criteria are met:
a) the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and
b) the contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest

B) Classification of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income


Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) comprise:
a) Equity securities (listed and unlisted) which are not held for trading, and for which the Group has irrevocably elected at initial recognition to recognise
changes in fair value through OCI rather than profit or loss. There are currently no equity securities which are carried at FVOCI.
b) Debt securities where the contractual cash flows are solely principal and interest and the objective of the Group’s business model is achieved both by
collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets. There are currently no debt securities which are carried at FVOCI.

C) Classification of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss


The Group classifies the following financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL):
a) debt investments (mutual funds) that do not qualify for measurement at either amortised cost or FVOCI,
b) equity investments that are held for trading, and
c) equity investments for which the entity has not elected to recognise fair value gains and losses through OCI.
The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in equity instrument
that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrecoverable election at the time of initial recognition to account for equity
investment at FVOCI.
(c) Impairment of financial assets
The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment
methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. Refer note 24.

(d) Derecognition of financial assets


A financial asset is derecognised only when the Group has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or retains the contractual rights to
receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients. Where the entity has
transferred an asset, the Group evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the
financial asset is derecognised. Where the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is
not derecognised. Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the
financial asset is derecognised if the Group has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Group retains control of the financial asset, the asset is
continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.

(All amounts in Rs. Million, except for share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)

37 Summary of other accounting policies (Contd..)


(e) Interest income
Interest income is recognised using effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through
the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.
(f) Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities where there is a legally
enforceable right to offset the recognised amount and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset an settle the liability simultaneously.

(g) Subsequent measurement


Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on the Group’s business model for managing the financial asset and the cash flow characteristics of the
financial asset. There are two measurement categories into which the Group classifies its financial instruments:

Subsequently measured at amortised cost:


Financial assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent SPPI are measured at amortised cost e.g. investments in
bonds, loans, trade receivables etc. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
(EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR.
The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. A gain or loss on a financial asset that is
subsequently measured at amortised cost is recognised in the Restated Consolidate Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired.

Subsequently measured at FVTPL:


Financial assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost and FVTOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss e.g. investments in mutual funds. A
gain or loss on a financial asset that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss and presented net in the Restated
Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss within other gains/ (losses) in the period in which it arises.

(iii) Cash and cash equivalents


For the purpose of presentation in the information of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions,
other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are
subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the Restated Consolidated Statement of
Assets and Liabilities.
(iv) Trade payables
The amounts represent liabilities for goods and services procured prior to the end of financial year. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within the
credit period given by the vendors. Trade payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period.
They are recognised initially at their transactional value which represents the fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method.

(v) Employee benefits obligations


(a) Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which
the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts
expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Refer note 10(c) for details.
(b) Other long-term employee benefit obligations
The liabilities for earned leave are presented as current liabilities in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities if the entity does not have an
unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur. They
are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting
period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that
have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are
recognised in profit or loss. Refer note 11 for details.

(c) Post-employment obligations


The Group operates the following post-employment schemes:
• defined benefit plans such as gratuity and
• defined contribution plans such as provident fund.

Defined contribution plans


The Group pays provident fund contributions to publicly administered provident funds, employee state insurance and labour welfare fund as per local
regulations. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution
plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due.

37 Summary of other accounting policies (Contd..)

(vi) Income tax


The income tax expense or credit for the year is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by
changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where
the Group operates and generates taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which
applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax
authorities.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts in the financial information. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by
the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income and are expected to apply when the related deferred
income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances
relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to
settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

(vii) Finance Cost


Borrowing costs include interest and other costs incurred in connection with borrowings. All borrowing costs are recognised in Restated Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss in the period in which they are incurred.
(viii) Freight expenses
Incidental expenses relating to freight revenue i.e. freight expenses are recorded over the period of services delivered to the fleet owners.
(ix) Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions: Provisions are recognised when there is a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Provisions
are measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities date.

Contingent Liabilities: Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed
only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group or a present obligation that arises
from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

(x) Lease liabilities


As a lessee:
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease
payments:
• fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
• variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date
• amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees
• the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
• payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss over the
lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

37 Summary of other accounting policies (Contd..)

(xi) Foreign currency translation


(a) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity
operates("the functional currency"). The Restated Consolidated Financial Information are presented in Indian Rupee ("INR") which is functional and
presentation currency of the Group.
(b) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses
arising from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end
exchange rates are recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.
Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair-value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss.
(c) Group Companies
The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which have the currency of a hyper inflationary economy) that have a functional currency
different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
• Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of that Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
• Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on
the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions), and
• All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
When a foreign operation is sold, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain/ loss on sale/ liquidation of subsidiary.

(xii) Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference
between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective
interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of
the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all
of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.

Borrowings are removed from the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged,
cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the
consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other gains/(losses).

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the
reporting period. Where there is a breach of a material provision of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that
the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period
and before the approval of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.

sufficient appropriate evidence about whether:
● The related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those criteria; and
● The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information reflects the proper

2. Basis of preparation
(i) In accordance with clause (11)(I)(B)(iii) of Part A of Schedule VI of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure
Requirements) Regulations, 2018, as amended (the “SEBI ICDR Regulations”), the Company is required to present Pro forma financial
information of all the subsidiaries or businesses material to the financial statements where the issuer or its subsidiaries have made an
acquisition or divestment including deemed disposal after the latest period for which financial information is disclosed in the offer document
but before the date of filing of the offer document for the last completed financial year and the stub period, if any.

As the Group has entered into a Business Transfer Agreement (BTA) on August 05, 2024, to divest its corporate freight business division
(which was considered material), this transaction qualifies for the presentation of pro forma financial information under SEBI ICDR
Regulations. The pro forma financial information are prepared for the purposes of inclusion in the Red Herring Prospectus (“RHP”) and the
Prospectus (collectively referred to as “Offer Documents”) in connection with the proposed initial public offering (the “Offering”) of equity
shares of the Holding Company. The Offering also includes an offer in jurisdictions outside the United States in “offshore transactions” under
Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), and within the United States to persons reasonably
believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information comprises the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as at June 30,
2024, and March 31, 2024, and the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss for the three months period ended June
30, 2024, and for the year ended March 31, 2024, along with the notes thereto (collectively referred to as “Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated
Financial Information”)".

(ii) The Restated Consolidated Financial Information of the Group have been prepared by the Management from the audited special purpose
interim consolidated financial statements of the group for the three months periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 and audited
consolidated financial statements of the Group for the years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023 which are prepared in
accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Ind AS’) as notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013
(the Act), Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and other relevant provisions of the Act, except for inclusion of comparative
information in the special purpose interim consolidated financial statements for the three months period ended June 30, 2023, as those are
not being given in the restated consolidated financial information as per the option available to the Company under Paragraph (A) (i) of Clause
11(I) of Part A of Schedule VI of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information has been compiled
in a manner consistent with the accounting policies adopted by the Group in its Restated Consolidated Financial Information as at and for the
three months period ended June 30, 2024 and for the year ended March 31, 2024 and after making the adjustments as detailed in the
following section “Pro Forma adjustments”- Refer Note 3.

(iii) The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance sheet as at June 30, 2024 and as at March 31, 2024 have been prepared, as if the divestment
has taken place on June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss for
the three months period ended June 30, 2024 and for the year ended March 31, 2024 has been prepared as if the divestment has taken place
on April 1, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively. Accordingly, Pro Forma adjustments have been made to the Restated Consolidated Statement
of Assets and Liabilities and Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss to prepare the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance
sheet and Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that the management of the Group believes to be reasonable,
directly attributable to the divestment and reflective of adjustments necessary to report Group's financial condition and results of operations as
if the disposal was completed at the dates mentioned above.

(iv) The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information has not been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X Article 11, Pro Forma
Financial Information, as amended by the final rule, Amendments to Financial Disclosures About Acquired and Disposed Businesses, as
adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 21, 2020 nor in accordance with any other generally accepted
accounting principles including accounting standards and practices accepted in other jurisdictions and accordingly should not be relied upon
as if it had been prepared in accordance with those principles and standards. In addition, the rules and regulations related to the preparation
of Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information in other jurisdictions may also vary significantly from the basis of preparation of
these Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information as set out in the notes. Accordingly, the degree of reliance placed by anyone in
other jurisdictions on such pro forma information should be limited.

(v) As the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information is based on the judgement and assumptions of the management of the Group
to reflect the hypothetical impact, and because of its hypothetical nature, does not provide any assurance of indication that any event will take
place in the future and may not be indicative of the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information of the Group as at and for the
three months period ended June 30, 2024 and as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024 or any future periods. The actual Balance Sheet
and Statement of Profit and Loss may differ significantly from the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information amounts
reflected herein due to variety of factors. The purpose is to indicate the results that would have resulted had the divestment been completed at
the dates mentioned above, but are not intended to be indicative of expected results or operations in the future periods of the Group.

(vi) The Unaudited Proforma Consolidated Financial Information is not a complete set of financial statements and does not include all disclosures
in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (referred to as 'Ind AS') prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013
(referred to as 'the Act') and Schedule III of the Act, as applicable and is not intended to give true and fair view of the financial position or the
financial performance for the period/year, in accordance with Ind AS prescribed under Section 133 of the Act. As a result, these Unaudited
Proforma Consolidated Financial Information may not be comparable and suitable for any other purpose.

(vii) All amounts have been rounded off to the nearest Rupees millions with two decimals, unless otherwise indicated.

(All amounts in Rs. Million, except for share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)
The Group has utilised the sale consideration received in cash amounting to Rs. 408.73 million (includes Rs. 10.00 million received as advance
and presented as current liabilities as at March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024) to acquire 6.29% equity stake in the buyer by subscribing to the
equity shares of the buyer.
Deferred consideration is equal to the net assets transferred on August 22, 2024 and to be paid by the buyer before February 28, 2025 subject to
adjustments in respect of of trade receivables collected directly by the Group/buyer between August 22, 2024 and February 28, 2025. Further,
all such uncollected balance amounts as on February 28, 2025 in relation to trade receivables transferred shall be waived off by the Group and
adjusted against the Deferred Consideration receivable. Management has assumed the deferred consideration to be Rs. 549.81 million assuming
achievement of the conditions of the agreement based on the past history. Any reduction in such achievement would result in gains being
materially different than disclosed above.

(ii) Represents elimination of corporate freight business assets and liabilities classified as held for sale in the Restated Consolidated Financial
Information of the Group.

(iii) Pertains to transaction costs incurred by the Group amounting to Rs. 1.50 million in connection with the divestment, Rs. 398.73 million sale
consideration received subsequent to June 30, 2024 (after adjusting the advance of Rs. 10.00 million received during the year ended March 31,
2024) and Rs. 408.73 million of cash payment towards investment in equity shares of the Buyer company as stated in (i) above.

(iv) As per the Management's assessment, the Group has ability to offset the gain on divestment with the carried forward unsbsorbed depreciation
as per the Income Tax Act, 1961. Therefore, there shall be no tax impact related to the gain on proposed divestment in the Unaudited Pro Forma
Consolidated Financial Information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This section includes Certain Non-GAAP financial measures and other statistical information relating to our operations and
financial performance (together, “Non-GAAP Measures” and each a “Non-GAAP Measure”), as presented below. These
Non-GAAP financial measures are not required by or presented in accordance with Ind AS.

Further, these Non-GAAP Measures are not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under Ind AS and
should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, profit/ (loss) for the years/ period or any
other measure of financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows
generated by operating, investing or financing activities derived in accordance with Ind AS. In addition, these Non-GAAP
Measures are not standardized terms, hence a direct comparison of these Non-GAAP Measures between companies may not
be possible. Other companies may calculate these Non-GAAP Measures differently from us, limiting its usefulness as a
comparative measure. Although such Non-GAAP Measures are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with
applicable accounting standards, our Company’s management believes that they are useful to an investor in evaluating us as
they are widely used measures to evaluate a company’s operating performance.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures

Analysts, and other interested parties frequently use various non-GAAP financial measures as performance measures, and our
management believes that providing such non-GAAP financial measure allows users to make additional comparisons and to
understand our ongoing business. Reconciliation for the following non-GAAP financial measures included in this Red

OVERVIEW

Who are we?

We are India’s largest digital platform for truck operators (in terms of number of users), with 963,345 truck operators in the
country transacting on our platform in Fiscal 2024, which comprises 27.52% of India’s truck operators (Source: Redseer
Report). India’s growing economy needs the support of robust logistical capabilities and small and medium size truck
operators are the backbone of logistics in the country. These truck operators are served through value chains which are
unorganized and fragmented, making their operations inefficient (Source: Redseer Report). We are on a mission to digitally
empower India’s truck operators, helping them manage their business and grow their income. Using our platform, our
customers (primarily comprising truck operators) digitally manage payments for tolling and fueling, monitor drivers and
fleets using telematics, find loads on our marketplace and get access to financing for the purchase of used vehicles.

Set out below is a graphic representation of certain key metrics related to our business.

354
Truck operators use the BlackBuck mobile application (the “BlackBuck App”) for their diverse business needs. Set out
below are certain key highlights in relation to our business:

• Our gross transaction value (“GTV”) in payments was ₹53,562.01 million and ₹173,961.93 million in the three months
ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. Our customers recharge for tolling and fueling through our
BlackBuck App into the payment instrument of the FASTag and fuel partners. Significant portion of this amount is
deposited into our account and onward remitted to our partners account. GTV payments do not represent the revenue of
our Company. Our commission income in any period/year is only an agreed percentage of the total GTV payments in that
period/year. Our methodology of disclosing the GTV may not be comparable to the methodology used by other platform
companies. For further details on our commission income, see “– Results of Operations” on page 359.

• Truck operators manage their truck-level tolling and fueling operations through the BlackBuck App, and gain cost
benefits and effective control over expenses through decreased risk of pilferage and unauthorized spending.

• Truck operators purchase telematics services such as vehicle tracking and fuel sensors to manage their drivers and fleets.
We had 390,088 and 356,050 average monthly active telematics devices in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and
Fiscal 2024, respectively.

• Truck operators use our loads marketplace product to search for loads to fill their empty capacities or to get a better price
for a load. We had 0.71 million and 2.12 million load postings in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024,
respectively, which enabled 133,369 and 256,685 truck operators to get a load during the same periods.

• Truck operators avail used commercial vehicle financing through our platform. As on June 30, 2024, we have facilitated
disbursements of 5,109 loans amounting to ₹2,527.56 million.

Our offerings solve critical problems for our customers and form an integral part of their daily lives. In the three months
ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscal 2024, our monthly transacting truck operators were active for more than 16.26 days and 16.18
days, respectively, in a month and on an average spent 41.54 minutes and 39.56 minutes, respectively, daily, on the
BlackBuck App. The needs of the trucking industry are very specific and the truck operator's demography in India is unique
(Source: Redseer Report). We have built our offerings and distribution strategy specifically for these users and the industry,
and we believe that this is the key underlying reason for the strong truck operator engagement on the BlackBuck App and the
market share we possess.

We follow an omnichannel customer onboarding and servicing strategy, which is made specifically for the demography of
our customer base. We have a digital-led marketing strategy which provides awareness of our solutions and brand to
customers. Using a combination of an on-ground sales force, channel partners and telesales we support customers through
their entire onboarding process. Among new-age digital platforms in the trucking sector, we have the largest physical network
(in terms of number of Touchpoints) across India and as of June 30, 2024, we have sold and serviced our products across 628
districts constituting 80% of India’s districts, including in all of the major transportation hubs and across 76% of the toll plaza
network in India (Source: Redseer Report). We have a digitally enabled network of 9,374 touchpoints to conduct onboarding
and servicing activities as of June 30, 2024. Our network is one of our core strengths and enables us to build trust with
customers and provides the necessary service infrastructure for our customers. For further details of our distribution strategy,
see “Our Business – Omnichannel distribution network with robust sales and service strategy” and “Our Business – Sales,
Distribution and Marketing” on pages 170 and 185, respectively.

SIGNIFICANT FACTORS AFFECTING OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our financial condition and results of operations are affected by numerous factors and uncertainties, including those discussed
in the section titled “Risk Factors” on page 34. The following is a discussion of certain factors that we believe have had, and
will continue to have, a significant effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

355
Ability to maintain and grow average monthly transacting truck operators

Our customer base has grown significantly in the last three years, demonstrated by the growth in our average monthly
transacting truck operators which increased to 597,638 in Fiscal 2024 from 458,025 in Fiscal 2023 and 261,304 in Fiscal
2022. Further, our average monthly transacting truck operators increased to 687,994 in the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Our revenues depend on the number of active transacting truck operators on our platform, which in turn depends on our
ability to: provide value to our customers, continually evolve our platform offerings and provide effective customer support.

Our ability to offer tailor-made, easy-to-use solutions for Indian truck operators, our physical presence through touchpoints
and customer support at all hours for the segment of customers we serve, is a key factor for our leadership position in the
digital trucking platform business. We have made investments, and plan to continue to invest towards acquiring new
customers and increase sales to our existing customers. We have been able to grow our customer base of annual transacting
truck operators to 963,345 in Fiscal 2024 from 482,446 in Fiscal 2022. In addition to onboarding new customers, we also
depend on our ability to increase sales to existing customers. Our relationships with our customers have grown by proving our
reliability and quality through initially fulfilling their single or select use-case requirements (e.g., telematics and/or
payments), and eventually becoming a multi-solution provider to them (with our loads marketplace and vehicle financing
offerings). This is demonstrated by the growth in our average monthly transacting truck operators using more than two
services, which as a percentage of average monthly transacting truck operators grew to 45.20% in the three months ended
June 30, 2024, 43.34% in Fiscal 2024 from 20.83% in Fiscal 2022.

Our ability to increase sales to existing customers depends on a number of factors, including our distribution network, our
customer servicing, customers’ level of satisfaction with our offerings and economic conditions, among others. We have
made, and plan to continue to invest towards acquiring new customers and increasing sales to our existing customers. Going
forward, we intend to continue to invest in deepening our distribution base and increasing the density of our distribution in
key strategic pockets across India. Also see “- Significant Factors Affecting our Financial Condition and Results of
Operations - Ability to manage costs and enhance operating leverage” on page 358.

Ability to maintain and grow payments GTV and payments transactions

Our payments business is one of our core offerings. This offering provides solutions in relation to two significant expenses of
truck operators, i.e., tolls and fuel payments. We enable truck operators to make these payments efficiently and securely
through the BlackBuck App. Set out below is a graphic representation of the growth in the GTV from our payments offering
(i.e., the rupee value of total successful transactions made in our payments offering) in the last three years. Our customers
recharge for tolling and fueling through our BlackBuck App into the payment instrument of the FASTag and fuel partners.
Significant portion of this amount is deposited into our account and onward remitted to our partners account. GTV payments
do not represent the revenue of our Company. Our commission income in any period/year is only an agreed percentage of the
total GTV payments in that period/year. Our methodology of disclosing the GTV may not be comparable to the methodology
used by other platform companies. For further details on our commission income, see “– Results of Operations” on page 359.

356
Our GTV from our payments offering increased to ₹173,961.93 million in Fiscal 2024 from ₹121,945.86 million in Fiscal
2023 and ₹80,031.82 million in Fiscal 2022. Our GTV from our payments offering was ₹53,562.01 million in the three
months ended June 30, 2024.

We generate revenues from this offering primarily through commissions from our FASTag Partner Banks and OMC Partners,
as well as various fees and charges from truck operators. Our FASTag Partner Banks pay us commission on the toll
transaction flowthrough (our tolling GTV), whereas our OMC Partners pay us a commission margin on the fuel transaction
flowthrough, based on the volume of monthly consumption of fuel and monthly transaction value of fuel purchased through
our fueling cards (our fueling GTV). Our ability to maintain strong uptime and provide robust customer value propositions
result in increased transactions by customers and consequentially leads to growth in the GTV for our payments offering. In
addition, our success in this business depends significantly on our ability to continue to maintain our relationship with our
FASTag Partner Banks and OMC Partners. Any changes to the terms of our arrangements by any of our FASTag Partner
Banks or OMC Partners may impact our revenues.

Ability to grow monthly active telematics devices

Our telematics business is one of our core offerings. In telematics, we provide vehicle tracking solutions and fuel sensors to
truck operators, to manage their drivers and fleets through the BlackBuck App. According to the Redseer Report, we have
become one of the largest players in the vehicle tracking market in India in Fiscal 2024, with our average monthly active
telematics devices increasing to 356,050 in Fiscal 2024 from 284,098 in Fiscal 2023 and 101,560 in Fiscal 2022. Our average
monthly active telematics devices in the three months ended 30 June 2024 was 390,088.

We generate revenues from our telematics offerings through subscription fees which are charged to our customers. In order to
grow this offering, we have continually built and intend to continue to build strong customer value propositions. The growth
of our telematics offering also depends on our sales and distribution network and our ability to strengthen our customer
experience. Also see “- Significant Factors Affecting our Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Ability to manage
costs and enhance operating leverage” on page 358.

Macroeconomic conditions in the logistics industry and fuel prices

Our business depends on the overall macroeconomic conditions that impact freight volumes and truck capacity. While our
business benefits from an improvement in the economic environment, any adverse macroeconomic conditions would subject
our business to various risks which may have an adverse impact on our operating results and cause us to not achieve growth
or profitability. For instance, an increase in overall freight volumes would lead to an increase in revenues and opportunities
for growth, and conversely, decreases in overall freight volumes would lead to a decrease in our revenues. Our business also
depends on the economic condition of our customers (i.e., truck operators). If a large number of truck operators go out of
business due to macroeconomic or other reasons, our business would also be impacted. We are also dependent on the
movement of fuel prices in India. A growth in retail fuel prices could cause an increase in our revenue from commissions
from our fuel cards. However, a significant increase in fuel prices may discourage fuel consumption, which may have a
negative impact on our commissions and revenue from operations. In addition to the above, other macroeconomic factors
affecting India, such as increased inflation, increased labor costs and increased vehicle purchase, rental, or maintenance costs
may also affect the costs incurred by truck operators when providing services through our platform, which in turn would
impact our revenues.

Ability to optimize our existing offerings and launch new offerings that are attractive to customers

To service and grow our relationships with our existing customers and to win new customers, we must be able to provide
them with products that address their requirements, to anticipate and understand trends in the logistics industry, and to
357
continually address customers’ requirements as those requirements change and evolve. Driven by our offerings which aim to
address key challenges faced by our customers and our ability to continually innovate and offer new products which aim to
streamline our customers’ operations, we have achieved strong retention rates among our customers. If we are able to
anticipate and respond to our customers’ requirements on a timely and cost-efficient basis, we expect to receive repeat
business from existing customers. Leveraging our large customer base, we are able to obtain a sizeable amount of data and
insight into the businesses of our customers, which helps us launch new offerings and make our solutions integral to our
customers’ operations. We aim to continue to leverage our domain expertise, data-led insights, and technology capabilities to
continuously iterate and expand our suite of products and services, ensuring that we continue to address the evolving needs of
our customers. If we are able to generate healthy demand for our offerings, this will have a positive impact on our revenues,
leading to an increase in profit margins. Conversely, if we are unable to successfully develop new products and enhance
existing offerings or if our customers are dissatisfied with our offerings for any reason, this would have an adverse effect on
our revenues and profits.

Ability to manage costs and enhance operating leverage

We are an asset light business, with high contribution margins. Our contribution margins were 91.10%, 90.68% and 92.16%
in Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively. Our contribution margin was 93.27% for the three months ended
June 30, 2024.

Our most significant costs are employee costs and benefits and manpower services expenses, which primarily relate to costs
incurred towards engaging our sales, distribution and marketing personnel. Given the importance of our sales and distribution
network, we expect to continue to invest towards developing this network further. Set out below are details of our employee
benefits expenses and manpower services expenses.

Note: Percentage of total income refers to expenses in the above table divided by total income from continuing operations as per the Restated Consolidated
Financial Information.

We have consciously focused on optimizing our operations and costs to drive productivity and effectiveness. The results of
these efforts are evident in the decline in both our employee benefits expenses and our manpower services expenses, as a
percentage of our total income in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and Fiscals 2024 and 2023, compared with Fiscal
2022.

As an asset-light company, with marginal debt, our non-operating expenses, namely, depreciation, amortization and interest,
are minimal. Further our robust average retention rates of our customers allows our platform to achieve high lifetime
customer value. This in turn helps achieve attractive unit economics for our business. Long term retention creates strong
operating leverage for future EBITDA margins while maintaining a steady state of customer acquisition cost and therefore the
continued success and growth of our business depends on our ability to retain customers through developing quality offerings
and enhancing the customer experience across our offerings.

Revenue from continuing operations. Our revenue from continuing operations increased by 47.23% to ₹1,756.80 million in
Fiscal 2023 from ₹1,193.26 million in Fiscal 2022, primarily due to an increase in commission income, subscription fees and
service fees.

Our commission income increased by 17.27% to ₹880.64 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹750.99 million in Fiscal 2022 on
account of an increase in our average monthly transacting truck operators and an increase in GTV in payments. Our revenue
from subscription fees increased by 89.92% to ₹742.75 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹391.09 million in Fiscal 2022, primarily
due to an increase in the number of average monthly transacting truck operators and an increase in our monthly active
telematics devices. Our revenue from service fees also increased by 198.67% to ₹132.79 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹44.46
million in Fiscal 2022, attributable to the launch of our vehicle financing offering in Fiscal 2023.

Other income. Other income decreased by 19.63% to ₹194.12 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹241.54 million in Fiscal 2022,

million in Fiscal 2022 and a decrease in interest income on intercorporate deposits by 34.22% to ₹45.84 million in Fiscal
2023 from ₹69.69 million in Fiscal 2022.

Other gains (net). Other gains (net) decreased to nil in Fiscal 2023 from ₹126.48 million in Fiscal 2022, primarily due to an
increase in loss on fair valuation of embedded derivatives to ₹33.03 million which was reflected as expense line item in Fiscal
2023 from a gain of ₹(120.72) million in Fiscal 2022.

Expenses. Total expenses increased by 11.79% to ₹4,317.73 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹3,862.39 million in Fiscal 2022.

Employee benefits expense. Employee benefits expenses marginally increased by 1.61% to ₹2,195.54 million in Fiscal 2023
from ₹2,160.80 million in Fiscal 2022, primarily due to an increase in salaries, wages and bonuses by 31.43% to ₹1,517.31
million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹1,154.46 million in Fiscal 2022 on account of an increase in our contribution to provident and
other funds by 30.54% to ₹55.69 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹42.66 million in Fiscal 2022. This was offset by a decrease in
employee share based payment expenses by 36.92% to ₹566.75 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹898.50 million in Fiscal 2022.

Depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by 33.82% to ₹204.07 million in
Fiscal 2023 from ₹152.50 million in Fiscal 2022, primarily due to an increase in depreciation on plant and machinery
(telematics) by 113.78% to 153.60 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹71.85. million in Fiscal 2022.

Other expenses. Other expenses increased by 35.49% to ₹1,866.78 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹1,377.83 million in Fiscal
2022, primarily due to the following reasons.

• Manpower services increased by 51.79% to ₹1,098.06 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹723.43 million in Fiscal 2022,
primarily due to an increase in our off-roll employee headcount to 8,679 in Fiscal 2023 from 7,005 in Fiscal 2022.

• Business promotion and advertisement expenses marginally decreased by 5.69% to ₹198.25 million in Fiscal 2023 from

advertisement costs in Fiscal 2022.

364
• Information technology and communication expenses increased by 51.32% to ₹294.11 million in Fiscal 2023 from

of our business.

• Travelling and conveyance expenses increased by 60.59% to ₹84.00 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹52.31 million in Fiscal
2022, primarily due to an increase in the number of our sales and marketing employees and the increase in travelling
needs of such employees in Fiscal 2023.

to increase in loss on fair valuation of embedded derivatives.

Finance costs. Finance costs decreased by 81.34% to ₹31.96 million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹171.26 million in Fiscal 2022,
primarily due to a decrease in interest expenses on non-current borrowings by 90.98% to ₹12.35 million in Fiscal 2023 from
₹136.90 million in Fiscal 2022, and a decrease in interest expenses on working capital demand loans by 49.31% to ₹13.38
million in Fiscal 2023 from ₹26.39 million in Fiscal 2022.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

In addition to our results determined in accordance with Ind AS, we believe the following Non-GAAP measures are useful to
investors in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity. We use the following Non-GAAP financial information to
evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Non-GAAP financial
information, when taken collectively with financial measures prepared in accordance with Ind AS, may be helpful to investors
because it provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in
comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry because it provides consistency and comparability with
past financial performance. However, our management does not consider these Non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an
alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with Ind AS.

Non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical
tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with Ind AS.
Non-GAAP financial information may be different from similarly titled Non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Non-
GAAP financial measures are not required by, or presented in accordance with, IndAS, IFRS or U.S. GAAP. Our Non-GAAP
financial measures are not a measurement of financial performance or liquidity under these accounting standards and should
not be construed in isolation or construed as an alternative to restated cash flows, restated profit/loss for the period or any
other measures of financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows
generated from our operating, investing or financing activities, derived in accordance with Ind AS, IFRS or U.S. GAAP. The
principal limitation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are
required by IndAS to be recorded in our financial statements, as further detailed below. In addition, they are subject to
inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded
or included in determining these Non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation is provided below for each Non-GAAP
financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with Ind AS. Investors are
encouraged to review the related Ind AS financial measures and the reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures to their
most directly comparable Ind AS financial measures included below and to not rely on any single financial measure to
evaluate our business.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

367
Historically, our primary liquidity requirements have been to finance our working capital needs for our operations. We have
met these requirements through cash flows from operations, equity infusions from shareholders and borrowings. As of June
30, 2024, we had ₹1,331.75 million in cash and cash equivalents, ₹1,968.26 million as other bank balances and ₹1,586.65
million as current borrowings. We believe that after taking into account the expected cash to be generated from operations,
our borrowings and the proceeds from the Offer, we will have sufficient liquidity for our present requirements and anticipated
requirements for capital expenditure and working capital.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

As of June 30, 2024, we do not have any contingent liabilities as per Ind AS 37, and there are no claims against us which are
disputed by us, and not acknowledged as debt.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that we believe have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future
material effect on our financial condition, change in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We enter into various transactions with related parties in the ordinary course of business. These transactions typically relate
to, post-employment benefits, short term employment benefits and reimbursement of expenses, among others. For further
information relating to our related party transactions, see “Restated Consolidated Financial Information – Notes forming part
of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information – Note 26” on page 307.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our business activities expose us to a variety of financial risks, namely, market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. Our Board
of Directors manages our financial risks through internal risk reports which analyze exposure by the magnitude of risk.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market price. Market risk comprises two types of risk: interest rate risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and
commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes investments and deposits. Our treasury team manages
market risk, which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes
in market interest rates. Certain of our short-term borrowings carry variable rates of interest. Therefore, we are subject to
interest rate risk on such borrowings.

Securities price risk

Our exposure to price risk arises from investments held and classified in the balance sheet as fair value through profit or loss.
To manage the price risk arising from investments, we diversify our portfolio of assets by investing in short- and long-term
deposits and diversified mutual funds. The deposits are with reputed banks where market interest rates and the risk on interest
rates varying.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that
are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Liquidity risk management implies maintenance of sufficient cash
including availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet the obligations as and
when due. We manage our liquidity risk by ensuring as far as possible that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet our short
370
term and long-term liabilities as and when due. Anticipated future cash flows, undrawn committed credit facilities are
expected to be sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a customer or counter-party fails to meet its contractual obligations. We are exposed
to credit risks from our operating activities, primarily trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks/
financial institutions and investments in bonds and mutual funds.

The maximum exposure to credit risk for each class of financial instruments is the carrying amount of that class of financial
instruments presented in the notes to the financial statements. Our major classes of financial assets are cash and cash
equivalents, fixed deposits, investments, bonds, mutual funds and trade receivables.

Deposits and cash and cash equivalents with banks and other financial institutions are considered to be having negligible risk
or nil risk, as they are maintained with high rated banks or financial institutions. We reassess our deposit strategy when
deposits with banks where its outlook changes to negative. No expected credit loss allowance has been created for
investments in mutual funds and bonds as we have determined the amount of expected credit loss on these financial assets to
be immaterial. We apply a simplified approach to provide for expected credit loss prescribed by Ind AS 109, which permits
the use of lifetime expected loss provision for all the trade receivables.

SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets

Property, plant and equipment

Depreciation method, estimated useful lives and residual value

Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as
prescribed under part C of the Schedule II of the Act or useful life based on technical evaluation done by management in
order to reflect the actual usage of the assets. The useful life, residual value and the depreciation method are reviewed at least
at each financial year end. If the expectations differ from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for prospectively as a
change in accounting estimate.

The estimates of useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Class of asset Useful life (in years) adopted by the Useful life (in years) as per
Group Companies Act, 2013
Plant and machinery (Telematics devices) 2 years NA
Computer equipment 3 years 3 years
Office equipment 2-5 years 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 10 years 10 years
Motor vehicles 5 years 6 years

Leasehold improvements are amortised over the remaining lease term or the estimated useful life of 10 years, whichever is
lower.

Intangible assets

Computer software acquired are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any. The group
amortise intangible assets with finite useful life using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of three years.

Financial Assets

Measurement

At initial recognition, the group measures a financial asset (excluding trade receivables which do not contain a significant
financing component) at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair
value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.

Subsequent measurement

The group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss)

those to be measured at amortised cost.

371
The group does not carry any investments in equity instruments. Investments in mutual funds are subsequently measured at
fair value through profit and loss as they do not meet the criteria for test of Solely Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI),
and are held for trading. Investments in bonds meets the SPPI criteria and are therefore subsequently measured at amortized
cost.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business and reflects the
group’s unconditional right to consideration (that is, payment is due only on the passage of time). Trade receivables are
recognised initially at the transaction price as they do not contain significant financing components. The Group holds the
trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at
amortised cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance. Unbilled receivables where the group has satisfied all
performance obligations and hence has an unconditional right to consideration are included under trade receivables.

For trade receivables only, the group applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which
requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

The carrying amounts of the trade receivables include receivables from transport services which are subject to a factoring
arrangement. Under this arrangement, the group has transferred the relevant receivables to the factor in exchange for cash and
is prevented from selling or pledging the receivables. However, the group has retained late payment and credit risk. The
Group therefore continues to recognise the transferred assets in their entirety in its balance sheet. The amount repayable under
the factoring agreement is presented as secured borrowing. The group considers that the held to collect business model
remains appropriate for these receivables and hence continues measuring them at amortised cost.

Equity

Classification as debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the
substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its
liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Compound financial instruments

The component parts of compound financial instruments issued by the group are classified separately as financial liabilities
and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an
equity instrument. At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market
interest rate for a similar non-convertible instrument. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortised cost basis using
the effective interest method until extinguished upon conversion or at the instrument’s maturity date. The equity component is
determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole.
This is recognised and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured.

Contract Liabilities

Deferred revenue:

In case of subscription contracts relating to telematic services and other services on the platform, as the group fulfils the
obligations over the tenure of subscription, these are presented as deferred revenue and are recognised as revenue as and
when the obligations are fulfilled under the contract with the customers.

Advance from customer:

Advance from customer is recorded as contract liability, when the payment is received from the customer before the group
transfers services to the customer. These are recognised as revenue, as and when the service is provided to the customer under
the agreements.

Other Financial Liabilities

Embedded derivatives in host liabilities

Derivatives, in the form of right to subscribe, embedded in host liabilities are separated only if the economic characteristics
and risk of embedded derivatives are not closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host and are measured
at FVTPL. Embedded derivative closely related to the host contracts are not separated.

372
Provisions

Gratuity Obligations

The liability recognised in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities in respect of defined benefit gratuity
plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets, if
any. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuary using the projected unit credit method.

The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by
reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government securities that have terms approximating to the
terms of the related obligation.

The interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the balance of the defined benefit obligation. This cost is
included in employee benefit expense in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in
the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the
Restated Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised
immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.

Revenue from operations

The group owns digital platforms which are used by truck operators (customers) to digitally manage payments for tolling and
fueling, monitor drivers and fleets using telematics, find loads on platform (marketplace) and get access to financing for the
purchase of used vehicles.

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer net of variable consideration e.g.
incentives or any payments made to a customer (unless the payment is for a distinct good or service received from the
customer) and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The group recognises revenue when it transfers control
over a service to a customer. Revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will
not occur.

Where the group acts as an agent for selling goods or services, only the commission income is included within revenue. The
specific revenue recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognized. Typically, the group has
a right to payment before or at a point services are delivered. Cash received before the services are delivered is recognised as
a contract liability. The amount of consideration generally does not contain a significant financing component as payment
terms are less than one year, except in relation to commission income on sourcing, servicing and collection of loans on behalf
of the financial institutions.

Commission income:

Commission income includes commission income from Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) for distribution and management
of fuel cards and commission from banks for distribution and management of FASTags. The group considers OMCs and
banks as its customers.

Commission income on fuel cards and FASTags:

The group facilitates distribution and management of fuel cards and FASTags and earns commission for respective services.
In both these services, the group stands ready to provide the services and the commission income is based on the usage of the
services by the end consumers. Revenue for these services is recorded in the period in which it accrues.

Subscription fee

The group charges subscription fees from its customers for telematics based fleet management solutions and subscription to
access specific services on the platform. Such income is recognised over the period of the subscription as the group satisfies
its performance obligation as services are rendered.

The group enters into subscription contracts typically for a period of one month to three years. As the group fulfils its
obligations over the tenure of subscription, these are presented as deferred revenue under contract liability in the Restated
Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Even though the group offers plans of more than one year to its customers
where the subscription price is received upfront, the group has determined that the purpose of such terms is not financing.
Accordingly it is determined that there are no significant financing components in such arrangements.

The group also earns subscription fees from fleet operators for the use of fuel cards issued under the OMC 's membership plan
for services such as recharge of fuel cards, issue resolution through dedicated customer support, notification alerts, transaction
history. Revenue from such services are recognized over the estimated period of usage of the fuel cards. Further, the group
grants certain loyalty points to the fleet owners based on the recharges made on the fuel card. Such points can be used by the
373
fleet owners for purchasing the fuel from OMCs. The group has determined payments to OMCs on utilisation of such points
by the fleet owners as consideration payable to customer and thus has netted it off against such service fees collected from the
customers.

Service fees

Service fees comprises of following streams of income:

The group earns fees from issuance/replacement, activation and installation convenience of FASTags to the fleet operators.
The revenue for this service is recognized at a point in time when the service is provided to the customers.

The group charges transaction fees from fleet owners on recharges of the FASTags. The revenue for this service is recognized
at a point in time when the service is provided to the customer.

The group provides access to the platform for buying and selling of second-hand commercial vehicles. The group charges
fees to the customer which is recognized at a point in time when the transaction between the parties is executed. The group is
an agent in such arrangement.

Sourcing, loan servicing and collection fees: The group acts as a business correspondent for financial institutions/bank where
the group provides services such as sourcing loans, loan servicing, collection services and onboarding of the borrowers. The
group receives processing fees for onboarding the borrowers which is recognized at a point in time when the onboarding
services are completed.

The consideration from sourcing loans, loan servicing, collection services is based on a pre-determined fixed percentage of
interest. The group receives consideration from sourcing loans only when the equated monthly instalments are paid by the
borrowers. Revenue from providing this service is recognised over the period of time in which the services are rendered and
as the customer benefits from the service. Consideration is variable and is highly susceptible to factors outside the entity's
influence. Revenue is recognised only when it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative
revenue recognised will not occur. Amount receivable from the financial institutions for which the group has fulfilled its
obligations is classified under "trade receivable" as the group has unconditional right over such consideration (i.e. if only the
passage of time is required before payment of such consideration is due).

Employee Stock Option Plan

Share based compensation benefits are provided to certain employees under the Employee Stock Option Plan 2016, Employee
Stock Option Plan 2019 and Management Stock Options Plan (MSOP) (collectively called as "ESOP plan").

The fair value of options granted under the ESOP plan, which are equity settled plans, are recognised as an employee benefits
expense with the corresponding increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair
value of the options granted.

The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions
are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest
based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any,
in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity, where shares are forfeited due to a failure by the employee to
satisfy the vesting conditions, any expenses previously recognised in relation to such shares are reversed effective from the
date of the forfeiture. In case where the group re-purchases vested equity instruments, the payment made to employees are
accounted as a deduction from equity, except to the extent that payment exceeds the fair value of the equity instruments re-
purchased, measured at the re-purchased date. Any such excess are recognised as an expense in the Restated Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss.

Segment Information

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision
maker (CODM). Chairman, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer is identified as CODM who assesses the
financial performance and position of the group, and makes strategic decisions.

the group is engaged in providing services to empower truck operators and corporates to efficiently manage their business and
maximise their earnings through logistics technology platforms (“Truck operator services”). Further, Blackbuck Finserve
Private Limited (a subsidiary) has received a non-banking financial company license during the current year and commenced
"Lending business". Accordingly, the group’s business activity primarily falls within two operating segments during the
current reporting period and segment wise disclosure has been presented below. All the revenues are generated from the
customers located in India. None of the non-current assets are held by the group outside India during the current financial
year. During the prior periods, the group’s business activity falls within a single operating segment, i.e., truck operator
services and segment wise disclosure is not applicable.

Leases

374
The group’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for office premises. The group assesses whether a contract contains
a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an
identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control
the use of an identified asset, the group assesses whether: (i) the contact involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the group
has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the group has the
right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the group recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease
liability for all lease arrangements in which the group is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less
(short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the group recognizes the lease payments
as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets
and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for
any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease
incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and
useful life of the underlying asset. Right-of-use assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the
recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset
basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted
using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country
of domicile of these leases.

Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset if the group changes its
assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities
and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Restated (loss) per equity share

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing: the profit/loss attributable to owners of the Group by the weighted average
number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account: the
after income tax effect of interest, other gains/ losses and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity
shares, and the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the
conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

Discontinued Operations

Non-Current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally
through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the asset (or
disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for
sales of such asset (or disposal group) and its sale is highly probable. Management must be committed to the sale, which
should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification.

Non-Current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair
value less costs to sell except for those assets that are specifically exempt under relevant Ind AS. Once the assets are
classified as “Held for sale”, those are not subjected to depreciation till disposal.

An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of the asset (or disposal group) to fair value less
costs to sell. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset (or disposal group),
but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. A gain or loss not previously recognised by the
date of the sale of the non-current asset (or disposal group) is recognised at the date of derecognition.

375
Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented
separately from the other assets in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed off or is classified as held for sale and that
represents a separate line of business or geographical area of operations, is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of such
a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of
discontinued operations are presented separately in the Restated Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

Loans

The group operates a subsidiary which is an Non-Banking Financial Corporation (“NBFC”), Blackbuck Finserve Private
Limited, that provides loans to customers. The group earns interest income on loans disbursed by the subsidiary. Interest
income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate (EIR) to the gross carrying amount of financial assets other than
credit- impaired assets. Interest income on credit impaired assets is recognized by applying the effective interest rate to the
net amortised cost (net of impairment allowance) of the financial asset.

The key accounting estimates used in the preparation of the financial statement relates to the estimation of impairment
amounts to be provided in case of financial assets including loans under “expected credit loss” (ECL) model. The ECL
allowance is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset (the lifetime expected credit loss), unless
there has been no significant increase in credit risk since origination, in which case, the allowance is based on the 12 months’
expected credit loss. Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected
life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is the portion of Lifetime ECL that represent the ECLs that result from
default events on a financial instrument that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date. 12 month ECL's is
calculated for assets classified as Stage 1 and Lifetime ECL's is calculated for loans classified as Stage 2 or Stage 3.

The subsidiary has established a policy to perform an assessment, at the end of each reporting period, of whether a financial
instrument’s credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, by considering the change in the risk of default
occurring over the remaining life of the financial instrument. The group does the assessment of significant increase in credit
risk at a borrower level.

Based on the above, the group categorises its loans into Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 as described below:

DPD status (*) Stage


Current Stage 1
1-30 days Stage 1
31-90 days Stage 2
90+ days Stage 3
(*) Days Past Due date

Expected Credit Loss or ECL is measured in the following manner:

The group calculates ECL based on probability weighted scenarios to measure the expected cash shortfalls, discounted at an
approximation to the EIR. A cash shortfall is the difference between the cash flows that are due to us in accordance with the
contract and the cash flows that the group expects to receive.

ECL = PD*LGD*EAD

These terms are defined below:

Probability of default (PD) - PD is an estimate of the likelihood of default over a given time horizon, the calculation of which
includes historical data, assumptions and expectations of future conditions, which is obtained from an external credit rating
agency.

Exposure at Default (EAD) - The Exposure at Default is an estimate of the exposure at a future default date.

Loss Given Default (LGD) - The Loss Given Default is an estimate of the loss arising in the case where a default occurs at a
given time. It is based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due and those that the group would expect to
receive, including from the realisation of any collateral.

Collateral valuation:

To mitigate its credit risks on financial assets, the group seeks to use collateral, where possible. The collateral is on the
movable assets i.e. vehicles of the borrowers. However, the fair value of collateral affects the calculation of ECL and the fair

an initial public offer only if the issue is made through the book-building process and the issuer undertakes to allot at least
seventy-five per cent of the net offer to qualified institutional buyers and to refund the full subscription money if it fails to do
so.”

We are an unlisted company that does not satisfy the conditions specified in Regulation 6(1) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations
of not more than 50% of the net tangible assets being held in monetary assets and having an average operating profit of at
least fifteen crore rupees, calculated on a restated and consolidated basis, during the preceding three years and are therefore
required to meet the conditions detailed in Regulation 6(2) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Set out below are details in respect
of our net tangible assets, monetary assets, average operating profits:

Amount (₹ in million)
Particulars As at As at As at
March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022
Restated Net tangible assets (1) 3,116.86 3,528.05 5,853.22
Restated Monetary assets (2) 3,360.71 1,717.77 1,910.48

Notes:

excluding Intangible Assets and Right of Use Assets reduced by Total Liabilities (excluding lease liabilities) of the Company.

However, since the corporate freight business was transferred pursuant to a slump sale in August 2024, such trade receivables were transferred to
“assets held for sale”- in Fiscal 2024 leading to a decrease in net tangible assets of the Company. Consequently, the monetary assets as a % of net
tangible assets increased from 48.69% as of March 2023 to 107.82% as of March 31, 2024. For further details, see “History and Certain Corporate
Matters - Hive-off of our corporate freight business” on page 208.

(as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act), who are both (a) “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined
in Rule 144A) and referred to in this Red Herring Prospectus as “U.S. QIBs”, for the avoidance of doubt, the term

referred to in this Red Herring Prospectus as “QIBs”) in one or more transactions exempt from the registration
requirements of the U.S. Securities Act; and (b) “qualified purchasers” (as defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the U.S.

outside India and may not be offered or sold, and Bids may not be made by persons in any such jurisdiction except in
compliance with the applicable laws of such jurisdiction.

Until the expiry of 40 days after the commencement of the Offer, an offer or sale of Equity Shares within the United
States by a dealer (whether or not it is participating in the Offer) may violate the registration requirements of the U.S.
Securities Act unless made pursuant to Rule 144A or another available exemption from the registration requirements
393
of the U.S. Securities Act and in accordance with applicable state securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of
the United States. The Equity Shares have not been recommended by any U.S. federal or state securities commission
or regulatory authority. Furthermore, the foregoing authorities have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the
adequacy of this Red Herring Prospectus or approved or disapproved the Equity Shares. Any representation to the
contrary is a criminal offence in the United States. In making an investment decision investors must rely on their own
examination of our Company and the terms of the Offer, including the merits and risks involved.

Phased implementation of Unified Payments Interface

SEBI has issued the UPI Circulars in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of inter alia, equity shares. Pursuant
to the 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 ASBA) for applications by RIBs through
Designated Intermediaries with the objective to reduce the time duration from public issue closure to listing from six Working
Days 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 UPI Circulars have introduced the UPI Mechanism in
three phases in the following manner:

418
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 until June 30, 2019. Under this
phase, a RIB had the option to submit the ASBA Form with any of the Designated Intermediary and use his/ her UPI ID for
the purpose of blocking of funds. The time duration from public issue closure to listing continued 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 had 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 had extended the
timeline for implementation of UPI Phase II until further notice. Under this phase, submission of the ASBA Form by RIBs
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 continued 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.

Pursuant to the SEBI circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2021/2480/1/M dated March 16, 2021 as amended pursuant to
SEBI circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/P/CIR/2021/570 dated June 2, 2021 and SEBI circular no.
SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2022/51 dated April 20, 2022, and as modified by SEBI circular
SEBI/HO/CFD/TPD1/CIR/P/2023/140 dated August 9, 2023 (“UPI Streamlining 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 UPI Streamlining 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 no later than one Working 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. Further, in terms of the UPI Circulars, the payment of processing fees to the SCSBs shall be
undertaken pursuant to an application made by the SCSBs to the BRLMs, and such application shall be made only after (i)
unblocking of application amounts for each application received by the SCSB has been fully completed, and (ii) applicable
compensation relating to investor complaints has been paid by the SCSB.

For further details, refer to the General Information Document available on the websites of the Stock Exchanges and the
BRLMs.

The Offer will be made under UPI Phase III of the UPI Circulars.

All SCSBs offering facility of making application in public issues shall also provide facility to make application using the
UPI Mechanism. Our Company will be required to appoint certain of the SCSBs as the Sponsor Banks 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.

RESTRICTIONS ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF INDIAN SECURITIES

Foreign investment in Indian securities is regulated through the Industrial Policy, 1991 of the GoI and FEMA. While the
Industrial Policy, 1991 prescribes the limits and the conditions subject to which foreign investment can be made in different
sectors of the Indian economy, FEMA regulates the precise manner in which such investment may be made. Under the
Industrial Policy, 1991 unless specifically restricted, foreign investment is freely permitted in all sectors of the Indian
economy up to any extent and without any prior approvals, but the foreign investor is required to follow certain prescribed
procedures for making such investment. The RBI and the concerned ministries/departments are responsible for granting
approval for foreign investment. The Government has from time to time made policy pronouncements on foreign direct
investment (“FDI”) through press notes and press releases. The DPIIT, issued the Consolidated FDI Policy, which, with
effect from October 15, 2020 consolidated and superseded all previous press notes, press releases, circulars and clarifications
on FDI issued by the DPIIT that were in force and effect as on October 15, 2020. The Consolidated FDI Policy will be valid
until the DPIIT issues an updated circular. FDI in companies engaged in sectors/ activities which are not listed in the
Consolidated FDI Policy is permitted up to 100% of the paid-up share capital of such company under the automatic route,
subject to compliance with certain prescribed conditions. For further details, see “Key Regulations and Policies” on page 190.

The transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a non-resident does not require the prior approval of the RBI, provided
that (i) the activities of the investee company are under the automatic route under the FDI Policy and transfer does not attract
the provisions of the SEBI Takeover Regulations; (ii) the non-resident shareholding is within the sectoral limits under the FDI
Policy; and (iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the SEBI/ RBI.

Further, in accordance with Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020 issued by the DPIIT and the Foreign
Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) Amendment Rules, 2020 which came into effect from April 22, 2020, any
investment, subscription, purchase or sale of equity instruments by entities of a country which shares land border with India
or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country (“Restricted
Investors”), will require prior approval of the Government, as prescribed in the Consolidated FDI Policy and the FEMA
Non-debt Instruments Rules. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign direct investment
in an entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within the aforesaid restriction/
purview, such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require approval of the Government. Pursuant to the
Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) (Fourth Amendment) Rules, 2020, issued on December 8, 2020, a
multilateral bank or fund, of which India is a member, shall not be treated as an entity of a particular country nor shall any
country be treated as the beneficial owner of the investments of such bank or fund in India. Each Bidder should seek
independent legal advice about its ability to participate in the Offer. In the event such prior approval of the GoI is required,
and such approval has been obtained, the Bidder shall intimate our Company and the Registrar to the Offer in writing about
such approval along with a copy thereof within the Offer Period.

As per the existing policy of the Government of India, OCBs cannot participate in the Offer.

Foreign Exchange Laws

The foreign investment in our Company is governed by inter alia the FEMA, as amended, the FEMA Non-debt Instruments
Rules and the FDI Policy issued and amended by way of press notes.

In terms of the FEMA Non-debt Instruments Rules, a person resident outside India may make investments into India, subject
to certain terms and conditions. In terms of the FEMA Non-debt Instruments Rules and the FDI Policy, any investment,
subscription, purchase or sale of equity instruments by entities of a country which shares land borders with India or where the
beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country will require prior approval of the
Government, as prescribed in the FDI Policy and the FEMA Non-debt Instruments Rules. Pursuant to the Foreign Exchange
Management (Non-debt Instruments) (Fourth Amendment) Rules, 2020 issued on December 8, 2020, a multilateral bank or
fund, of which India is a member, shall not be treated as an entity of a particular country nor shall any country be treated as
the beneficial owner of the investments of such bank or fund in India. Each Bidder should seek independent legal advice
about its ability to participate in the Offer. In the event such prior approval of the Government of India is required, and such
approval has been obtained, the Bidder shall intimate our Company and the Registrar in writing about such approval along
with a copy thereof within the Bid/ Offer Period.

In terms of the FEMA Non-debt Instruments Rules, for calculating the aggregate holding of FPIs in a company, holding of all
registered FPIs shall be included. The aggregate limit for FPI investments shall be the sectoral cap applicable to our
Company. In accordance with the FEMA Non-debt Instruments Rules, the total holding by any individual NRI, on a
repatriation basis, shall not exceed 5% of the total paid-up equity capital on a fully diluted basis or shall not exceed 5% of the
paid-up value of each series of debentures or preference shares or share warrants issued by an Indian company and the total
holdings of all NRIs and OCIs put together shall not exceed 10% of the total paid-up equity capital on a fully diluted basis or
shall not exceed 10% of the paid-up value of each series of debentures or preference shares or share warrant. Provided that the
aggregate ceiling of 10% may be raised to 24% if a special resolution to that effect is passed by the general body of the Indian
company. Our Company has, pursuant to a Board resolution dated June 26, 2024 and Shareholders’ resolution dated June 29,
2024, increased the limit of investment of NRIs and OCIs from 10% to up to 24% of the paid-up equity share capital of our
Company, provided however that the shareholding of each NRI in our Company shall not exceed 5% of the Equity Share
capital or such other limit as may be stipulated by RBI in each case, from time to time.
