Utilisation of IPO Proceeds

The Monitoring Agency confirmed that all utilisation during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 was in accordance with the objects disclosed in the Prospectus dated September 20, 2024. No deviations, material changes in means of finance, or other adverse events were reported. The statutory auditor's certificate relied upon was issued on May 04, 2026 by M/s D C Dharewa & Co., Chartered Accountants (Firm Registration Number: 322617E). The following table summarises the progress in utilisation of proceeds across all objects as at the end of the quarter.

During the quarter, Rs 22.59 million was utilised towards capital expenditure, specifically for the purchase of a commercial vehicle and containers as mentioned in the Prospectus. The Monitoring Agency noted that the commercial vehicle purchased differed from the model specified in the Prospectus, owing to market conditions and changes in the company's business requirements. This deployment was confirmed to be consistent with the company's stated objects and in line with the Offer Document's disclosure permitting purchase of different models from the same or different vendors based on business requirements and market conditions.

General Corporate Purposes Utilisation

During the quarter, Rs 5.51 million was utilised under the General Corporate Purposes head, as approved by the Board of Directors vide resolution dated May 08, 2026. The breakdown of this utilisation is as follows.

The total amount utilised for general corporate purposes as at the end of the quarter stood at Rs 477.28 million, fully exhausting the allocation under this head. The report confirmed that the amount utilised for general corporate purposes did not exceed 25% of the gross proceeds (amounting to Rs 1,000.00 million) from the fresh issue.

Delay in Implementation and Unutilised Proceeds

The Monitoring Agency noted a delay in the implementation of the capital expenditure object. As per the Prospectus dated September 20, 2024, the company had estimated utilisation of Rs 1,011.40 million for capital expenditure by Fiscal 2026. However, actual utilisation as at the end of Fiscal 2026 stood at Rs 604.10 million. The delay was attributed to the procurement of 167 Tata Signa 5530.S BS VI AC trucks and the company's ongoing evaluation of emerging electric vehicle (EV) technologies within the commercial vehicle segment, undertaken with the objective of optimising operational efficiency and aligning with its environmental sustainability and green energy commitments. The company intends to utilise the unspent amount in subsequent periods.

The total unutilised proceeds of Rs 935.21 million (inclusive of Rs 913.00 million of net proceeds and Rs 22.21 million of issue expenses) were deployed in fixed deposits with HDFC Bank, with maturities ranging from April 2027 to September 2027.
