Material changes and commitments affecting

and date of this Report

Save for the strategic initiatives detailed below, there
have been no material changes or commitments that may
significantly affect the financial position of the Company
between the end of the financial year and the date of this
Report.

Strategic Initiatives

The Board of Directors have at its meeting held on May
26, 2025,
inter alia, approved the execution of definitive
agreements with Marwadi Chandarana Intermediaries
Brokers Private Limited, belonging to Marwadi Chandarana
Group (
“MCG”) and the existing promoters and members of
promoters group for:

a. Subscription to 11,56,80,000 equity shares and
9,37,00,000 convertible warrants for a total
consideration of ^ 206.87 crores through preferential
issue by execution of securities subscription
agreement (
“Primary Acquisition”).

b. Acquisition of 3,68,00,220 equity shares of the
Company from the existing promoter and promoter
group through a share purchase agreement
(
“Secondary Acquisition”).

The Primary Acquisition and Secondary Acquisition has
triggered an open offer under SEBI (Substantial Acquisition
of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011, as amended
and are subject to regulatory approvals, including from the
Reserve Bank of India. For the Primary Acquisition, the
Company obtained approval from the shareholders of the
Company on June 25, 2025. Further, the Company is seeking
approval from regulatory authorities, stock exchanges and
other corporate approvals required for the proposed change
of control/open offer and change of management.

Further, upon completion of the open offer and the proposed
transactions, and fulfilment of certain conditions precedent
by the existing promoters, MCG will become the new
promoter of the Company, and the existing promoters will
be reclassified as public shareholders in accordance with
Listing Regulations.

Further, the Board of Directors had approved execution
of term sheet with InCred Financial Services Limited
(
“Incred”) for slump sale of gold loan business (along with
its respective assets and liabilities) (
“Proposed Slump
Sale”
), subject to approval of shareholders of the Company
and other corporate approvals, as required and specified
in term sheet. The Shareholders of the Company had,
pursuant to the provisions of Section 180(1)(a) of the Act
read with applicable rules and Regulation 37A of the Listing
Regulations, approved the Proposed Slump Sale through
e-voting by way of postal ballot on April 10, 2025. However,
due to certain factors which were outside the control of both
the parties, the term sheet was mutually terminated by both
the parties.

The Promoters and the Board is of the view that the
termination of the proposed slump sale of gold loan business
and the acquisition of a controlling stake in the Company
by MCG is poised to bring several strategic and operational
benefits to the Company, which will directly support its
next phase of growth. This change in control will mark a
significant milestone in the Company's journey and will
result in a stronger balance sheet with formidable access
to capital for sustainable growth in future years. With a

network of 122 branches spread largely across Tier 2, Tier
3 and Tier 4 towns, the Company will continue to focus
on enhancing growth, profitability and capital efficiency
through Gold Loans, MSME Business Loans, etc.

Co-Lending and Business Correspondent model

In order to provide greater operational flexibility to banks and
NBFCs for reaching out to priority sector, a revised scheme,
renamed as co-lending model (CLM) was introduced by
the RBI effective November 05, 2020. The primary focus
of the co-lending scheme is to improve the flow of credit
to the unserved and underserved sectors of the economy
and make available funds to the ultimate beneficiary at an
affordable cost, considering the comparative advantage of
lower cost of funds of banks and greater reach of NBFCs.
Taking benefit of banks' low-cost funding and leveraging
the extensive reach and presence of the Company in the
northern and western geographies of India, as on March 31,
2025, the Company has entered into strategic alliances with
5 leading public and private sector banks and 7 financial
institutions for Co-Lending and Business Correspondent
arrangements.

As on March 31, 2025, the overall AUM through co-lenders
model stood at ^ 433 crores (including loan against collateral
of Gold) which was at 42.00% of the total AUM as on March
31, 2025.

Transfer to Statutory Reserve Fund

During the financial year ended March 31, 2025, the
Company has incurred losses and accordingly, in terms
with the Section 45-IC(I) of the RBI Act, 1934, the
Company is not required to transfer funds to the Statutory
Reserve Fund.

Credit Rating

Report, there were notable developments in the credit

Rating Private Limited (

bank facilities and Debentures

Although on June 03, 2025, Informerics reaffirmed its
rating of IVR BBB / RWDI (Rating Watch with Developing
Implications), however on June 04, 2025, CARE downgraded
the ratings of the Company from CARE BBB- to CARE BB

year ended March 31, 2025..

Further, CARE, Infomerics and CareEdge Global IFSC
Limited has, on July 18, 2025, July 19, 2025 and July 23,

Dividend on Equity Shares

com/wp-content/uploads/Dividend-Distribution-Policy-
Final.pdf.

In line with the principles of prudent financial management
and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Act,
the Company has considered it appropriate to conserve its
resources and not declare dividends for the financial year
ended March 31, 2025. Retaining earnings during this
period will support the Company in maintaining liquidity,
strengthening its financial position, and ensuring operational
continuity. The Board remains focused on improving

dividend payouts once the financial position stabilizes and
profitability is restored.

obligations pertaining to Listed NCDs, Unlisted NCDs and

Further, based on loss reported for the financial year
ended March 31, 2025, which was largely due to write¬
offs taken as a prudent and conservative provisioning
and write-off policy of the Company, CARE downgraded
the ratings of the Company from CARE BBB- to CARE
BB (Rating Watch with Developing Implications), on
June 04, 2025, resulting in accelerated redemption of
the Listed NCDs under 6 ISINs, leading to immediate
liquidity requirements in the Company. However, due
to non-receipt of committed funds for such accelerated
redemption of the Debentures, the Company has not been
able to fulfil its obligation towards accelerated repayment
of principal and/or interest towards these Debentures on
the accelerated due dates. Your Company is committed
to honour and fulfil its payment obligations towards the
Debentures and has actively taken steps to find a viable
solution. Till the date of this Report, the Company has re¬
paid 70% of the total principal obligation on pro-rata basis
