Risks
- Business cyclicality: The company generates 100% of its revenue through the sale of steel products like TMT Bars, MS Billets, Sponge Iron, and related items. The iron and steel industry is inherently prone to volatility in demand and pricing, exhibiting cyclical patterns. A decline in steel prices could significantly impact the business, operational outcomes, prospects, and financial stability.
- Client concentration and absence of long-term contracts: The company lacks long-term contracts with its customers and relies heavily on its top 10 clients for approximately 64% of its revenues. Any loss of, or substantial decrease in revenue from, one or more of these key clients would have a substantial adverse effect on the business, operational results, and financial standing.
Note:
- The above schedule is tentative. The anchor lock-in period ends 30 days after the actual allotment date for 50% of the shares and 90 days after for the remaining portion.
- The allotment status will be available by July 02, 2024, on the Registrar’s website and the NSE website.
