Objects of the Issue
The proceeds from the IPO are earmarked for the following purposes:
- Funding for Securing Sales/Marketing Mandates: Providing interest-free refundable security deposits to developers in Delhi-NCR to secure exclusive sales mandates.
- Investment in Aurika Developers LLP: Investing ₹26.00 crores as current capital to fund the construction of 'Veda', a commercial hospitality project in Ayodhya.
- General Corporate Purposes: Deployment of remaining balance for general corporate needs as determined by management.
Risk Factors
Key risks highlighted in the offer documents include:
- Revenue Concentration: Top 5 customers contributed 67.69% of revenue in FY2026, with many relationships lacking formal long-term contracts.
- Geographic Concentration: Operations are heavily concentrated in Uttar Pradesh (77.94%) and Haryana (22.06%), exposing the company to regional market downturns.
- Regulatory Compliance: The company's registration with UP RERA has expired, potentially restricting regulated activities in its primary operating state.
- Negative Cash Flows: The company reported negative cash flows from investing activities of ₹2,199.91 lakhs in FY2026.
- Promoter Control: Promoters will hold approximately 72.46% of post-offer equity, allowing significant influence over corporate decisions.
Will the final Day 3 subscription figures be sufficient to push the overall issue above the 1.0x threshold, or is an undersubscribed allotment likely?
How might the expired UP RERA registration impact institutional investors' willingness to increase their stake in the final hours of bidding?
What are the potential liquidity risks for retail investors if the stock lists below the upper price band given the heavy concentration in the retail category?
