The company intends to deploy proceeds from the fresh issue towards repayment or prepayment of certain outstanding borrowings and investment in subsidiaries for debt repayment. It also plans to establish new wiring harness manufacturing facilities in Jhajjar, Haryana, and Hosur, Tamil Nadu.
A portion of the funds is earmarked for inorganic acquisitions and other strategic initiatives, supporting the companys plans for capacity expansion and business diversification.

Following the strong listing, Mahesh M Ojha, Vice President Research and Business Development at Kantilal Chhaganlal Securities, said short term investors could consider booking partial profits after the sharp debut, while medium to long term investors could continue holding the stock in anticipation of improvement in the companys EV focused product mix and capacity expansion.
