Heavy dependence on transformer manufacturing
Transformer Manufacturing Business generated 85.17% of Fiscal 2025 revenue from operations and 75.75% in the six-month period ended September 30, 2025. A decline in transformer demand, loss of technical eligibility, manufacturing disruption or failure to execute large transformer orders would therefore directly affect the majority of operating revenue.

Historical operating cash flow has been volatile
Net operating cash flow was negative Rs 231.46 million in Fiscal 2023 and negative Rs 163.18 million in Fiscal 2024 before improving to positive Rs 793.82 million in Fiscal 2025. The six-month period ended September 30, 2025 generated only Rs 31.18 million despite PAT of Rs 306.71 million.

Large guarantees and letters of credit create contingent exposure
Guarantees including letters of credit were Rs 2,819.83 million at September 30, 2025. They include earnest money deposits, performance bank guarantees, customer warranties and security for mobilisation advances. Material invocation could significantly affect liquidity and financial condition.

Dependence on government utilities and tender-based business
A substantial portion of business is linked to state transmission companies and government-controlled entities. As of September 30, 2025, government-sector customers represented 95.56% of the Order Book. Tender losses, delayed awards, changes in procurement policy or lower government capital expenditure can impair revenue visibility.

Extreme customer concentration
The top 10 customers contributed 97.04% of operating revenue in the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 93.88% in Fiscal 2025. The largest customer represented 36.33% and 24.13%, respectively. Loss, delayed procurement or reduced budget allocation from a small number of customers could cause a sharp revenue decline.

Capacity expansion requires execution of substantial capital expenditure
The Company proposes Rs 667.41 million of IPO-funded capital expenditure, including Rs 381.23 million for machinery and equipment. Procurement, installation and stabilisation of transformer machinery involve long lead times. Delays, cost escalation or weak utilisation would reduce expected benefits from the expansion.

Related-party transactions have been material in some periods
Aggregate related-party transactions represented 10.10% of Fiscal 2025 revenue from operations and 13.03% in Fiscal 2024, including loans, repayments, remuneration, professional fees, rent and other transactions involving promoters, directors and promoter-linked entities.

Past Companies Act non-compliances remain under adjudication
The Company filed six suo moto adjudication applications covering past lapses involving Board committee constitution, appointment of woman and independent directors and secretarial audit. Although the DRHP states that the lapses have been rectified, the adjudication applications remain pending and may lead to penalties or reputational consequences.

Working-capital requirements have increased sharply
Net Working Capital Days increased to 197 in the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 from 113 in Fiscal 2025 and 64 in Fiscal 2023. Net working capital reached Rs 1,716.06 million, and Rs 1,300.00 million of IPO proceeds is proposed for incremental working capital. Failure to obtain sufficient financing could constrain execution of the expanding Order Book.
Liquidity and cash conversion · material · p.47
Raw-material price risk is not fully passed through
Although most supply contracts include price-variation formulas, certain customer contracts are fixed-price. The DRHP states that six of 31 customer contracts as of the DRHP date were based on a fixed-price model. Adverse movement in copper, electrical steel, transformer oil or other inputs can therefore compress margins on those contracts.

Both manufacturing facilities are located in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh. A local natural disaster, labour issue, infrastructure disruption, accident or regulatory interruption could affect a substantial portion of manufacturing capacity simultaneously.

Order Book may not convert into reported revenue or earnings
The Rs 16,355.60 million Order Book at September 30, 2025 consists of contractual commitments yet to be fulfilled and is unaudited. The DRHP expressly warns that Order Book information does not necessarily indicate future earnings and actual income may be lower because of execution changes, cancellations, delays or differences in revenue recognition.

EPC execution is exposed to site availability, scope changes, approvals, subcontractor performance, commodity prices and delays. Cost overruns or liquidated damages may not be recoverable from customers and can reduce project profitability.

End-market concentration in power transmission, railways and renewable energy
Power transmission, railways and renewable energy together represented 90.62% of revenue from operations in the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 87.27% in Fiscal 2025. Sector-specific policy changes, budget reductions or investment slowdowns could materially reduce orders.

Supplier concentration and absence of long-term supply contracts
The top 10 suppliers accounted for 75.71% of cost of goods sold in the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 70.65% in Fiscal 2025. The Company generally purchases through purchase orders rather than long-term contracts and states that the supplier base for certain critical raw materials is limited.

The Restated Financial Information discloses differences between quarterly bank returns and accounting records for inventory, receivables and payables. Explanations relate to Ind AS 115 revenue recognition and inventory located at customer project sites, but recurring reconciliation differences raise an internal-control and reporting-quality monitoring point.

Cash conversion has not matched accounting profitability consistently. Operating cash flow was negative in Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2024, and the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 generated Rs 31.18 million of operating cash flow against PAT of Rs 306.71 million.

The DRHP separately discloses adverse or negative observations in earlier statutory auditor reports under CARO concerning Sections 185 and 186 of the Companies Act and non-charging of interest on a loan. The Company states that the observation was wrongly reported by the previous auditor due to oversight and that no financial-statement adjustment was required, though a fine under the Companies Act could potentially be imposed.
