Increase in Borrowings: The company's total borrowings increased from Rs. 6.43 crore in FY2024 to Rs. 13.06 crore in FY2026. Further borrowing could increase its financial costs and obligations.

Export Market Exposure: The company operates in several international markets. Changes in foreign exchange rates, trade regulations, geopolitical conditions or overseas demand could impact its export business.

SME Listing Risk: The proposed listing on the NSE SME platform may involve lower trading volumes and liquidity compared with mainboard-listed companies, which can affect the ease of buying or selling shares.
