Financials and risk factors

However, investors should be aware of risk factors as listed in the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP).
The company heavily relies on third-party suppliers for product provision, and the inability to establish or maintain formal agreements with these entities could pose significant risks.
Disruptions in the production or manufacturing facilities of these third parties, along with their supply chain arrangements or failure to meet quality standards, might adversely impact the company’s reputation, business operations, and financial standing.
Previously, the Promoters, Sanjay Chhabra and Sandeep Chhabra, were involved in legal proceedings initiated by an investigation agency concerning betting in Indian Premier League cricket matches. Although they have been formally cleared of these charges, any potential reopening of these matters could potentially harm the company’s business and reputation.
Further, among the promoters and members of the promoter group, there are ongoing legal proceedings involving SEBI and other regulatory bodies. If SEBI or any regulatory authority were to issue adverse orders, such as penalties or debarring the mentioned promoters or members of the promoter group from accessing the capital market, it could significantly impact the company’s business operations and reputation.
