Strengths and Key Risk Factors
Key Competitive Strengths
- Strategic Location: Manufacturing facility located within the Tata Vendor Park in Sanand, Gujarat, providing logistical proximity to key Tier-I automotive component manufacturing hubs.
- EV Ecosystem Alignment: Product range supplied across ICE and EV passenger vehicle platforms, supporting lightweighting and sustainable mobility trends.
- In-House Capabilities: Operational infrastructure comprising 30 injection moulding machines (capacities 120T–1,700T) and dedicated quality assurance testing units.
Key Risk Factors

- Outstanding Debt and Encumbrances: As of March 31, 2026, the company had secured outstanding borrowings of ₹31.02 crore, secured by charges created over movable and immovable properties.
- Past Compliance Discrepancies: The RHP notes past instances of delayed filings regarding GST, Profession Tax, ESIC payments, and Registrar of Companies (RoC) filings under the Companies Act.
- Promoter Disclosures Exemption: The issuer filed an exemption application with SEBI regarding non-disclosure of full information for Mr. Basant Lal Kheria, who is deemed part of the Promoter Group but did not supply required information.
