The amount for general corporate purposes is not yet stated.

The review found 4 points to read closely and 15 worth checking.

Read closely

1. Criminal proceedings against the company, its directors or individual promoters
2. Regulatory proceedings or actions against the company or its directors
3. Profits are not converting into operating cash
4. Working capital building up

How the capital was built

• The last priced issue of shares was a fundraise in 3 allotments between 31 Mar 2008 and 15 Sept 2008: 43,10,249 shares to promoters and others at ₹10 each (9 allottees); it came about 18 years before this prospectus.

Conclusion

Of the 4 points to read closely, 2 concern the promoters, management and their dealings (criminal proceedings against the company, its directors or individual promoters; regulatory proceedings or actions against the company or its directors) and 2 concern the financial statements. These could not be scored automatically and need reading: group entities in the same business; promoter shares are pledged or encumbered; guarantees given for group entities. These wait for the price and the final share count: issue price is a large multiple of promoters' cost. The pages to read are 37–39, 411 and 417.
