Net proceeds from the new issue will be allocated towards establishing the New Valsad Unit, a writing instrument manufacturing facility in Gujarat’s District Valsad, funding working capital needs for the company and its subsidiaries, financing capital expenditures, and addressing borrowings. The company’s promoters include Rajesh Khubilal Rathod, Mohit Khubilal Rathod, Sumit Rathod, Vimalchand Jugraj Rathod, and Khubilal Jugraj Rathod.

7. Market Competition: Intense competition from organized and unorganized players in the Indian writing and creative instruments market could materially impact business and financial results.

8. Raw Material Supply: Dependency on raw material imports makes the company susceptible to delays, interruptions, or reductions due to factors like changes in trade policy or geopolitical unrest.

9. Working Capital: Inadequate working capital could negatively impact operations, financial situation, cash flows, and business results.

10. Research and Development: Lack of a dedicated research and development department could hinder the timely and cost-effective development of new products.
