Precision Wires India issued a corrigendum to its Extra-Ordinary General Meeting (EGM) notice on August 21, 2026. The update clarifies the utilization of proceeds from a proposed preferential issue of Compulsory Convertible Debentures (CCDs). The EGM is scheduled for September 5, 2026.

Fund Utilization Plan

The company plans to raise funds for two primary objectives: working capital requirements and expansion. The total allocation is detailed below:

The working capital component aims to address rising raw material costs. The expansion fund includes ₹50 crore for capital expenditure on new plant and machinery and ₹10 crore for land acquisition. The company noted that actual amounts may deviate by +/- 10% based on management estimates.

Rising Copper Costs Drive Capital Need

The corrigendum highlights a significant increase in LME Grade A copper prices, which underpin the company’s purchase and sales transactions. The average price in INR rose 32% from the April 2025-March 2026 period to the April-June 2026 period. This surge is attributed to geopolitical situations, lower international mine output, and higher global consumption.

Additionally, the Indian Rupee has depreciated against the US Dollar. The USD/INR average rose from 88.81 in April 2025-March 2026 to 95.15 in April-June 2026. By July 2026, the average INR price of copper reached ₹13,01,240 per tonne, a 59% increase compared to the April-June 2025 average of ₹8,18,630.

Shareholding Pattern Changes

The preferential issue will result in minor dilution for existing shareholders upon conversion of CCDs into equity shares. The promoter group’s holding will decrease from 56.62% to 55.48%. Alternate Investment Funds (AIFs) will see their stake rise from 0.10% to 1.17%, primarily due to the allotment to Anchorage Capital Scheme III.

Proposed Allottees

The CCDs are proposed to be allotted to two entities:

• Aadi Financial Advisors LLP: 17,50,000 CCDs. Ultimate beneficial owners are Lata Bhanshali, Akash Bhanshali, and Payal Bhanshali.
• Anchorage Capital Scheme III (Category II AIF): 20,00,000 CCDs. The sponsor is Rohit Kothari.

What the Numbers Show

The disproportionate allocation of funds toward working capital (₹90 crore) versus expansion (₹60 crore) signals immediate liquidity pressure driven by input cost inflation. With copper prices up nearly 60% year-on-year in INR terms, the company is prioritizing operational continuity over long-term capacity addition in this specific raise. The pending utilization of these proceeds will be invested in money market instruments or scheduled commercial bank deposits.

Regulatory Compliance

The corrigendum was issued pursuant to observations from NSE and BSE and in accordance with SEBI ICDR Regulations 2018 and the Companies Act 2013. A certificate from S K Dwivedi & Associates, Company Secretaries, confirms compliance with regulatory requirements. The document is available on the company’s website.
