EFC (I) Limited: Monitoring Agency Report on Preferential Issue Fund Utilization for Q2FY26
EFC (I) Limited's monitoring agency report for Q2FY26 shows no deviation in preferential issue fund utilization, though interim use in subsidiary accounts was noted as not explicitly allowed.
The announcement is a routine compliance filing regarding the utilization of preferential issue proceeds. While a minor observation was made by the monitoring agency regarding interim fund deployment, it does not indicate a material deviation or misuse of funds. The company has also provided explanations for the object modifications. Therefore, the immediate market impact is expected to be low.
The report indicates no deviation from the stated objects of the preferential issue, which is positive. However, the monitoring agency highlighted that the interim deployment of a portion of unutilized funds into subsidiary current accounts was not explicitly allowed by the offer document, introducing a minor point of concern.
* EFC (I) Limited has submitted the Monitoring Agency Report from CARE Ratings Limited regarding the utilization of proceeds from its preferential issue of equity shares to non-promoters for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. * The preferential issue raised an aggregate amount of ₹242.44 crore. * The report indicates NIL deviation from the objects for which the funds were raised. * The company obtained Board Resolution on May 29, 2024, and an Extra-ordinary General Meeting (EOGM) Resolution on July 11, 2024, to clarify and modify the objects, including allowing funds for working capital requirements in subsidiaries. The company asserts all utilization remains strictly within approved objects. * Total unutilized proceeds as of September 30, 2025, amounted to ₹97.67 crore. * Deployment of unutilized proceeds includes: * ₹80.00 crore in Fixed Deposits with HDFC Bank, maturing in January 2026, earning 5.87% interest. * ₹1.00 crore in EFC (I) Limited's HDFC Bank Current Account. * ₹16.30 crore across current accounts of various subsidiaries (EFC Limited, Whitehills Interior Limited, EK Design Industries Limited, EFC Prime, Sprint Workspace). * The Monitoring Agency noted that parking part of unutilized proceeds in subsidiaries' current accounts is not explicitly allowed by the offer document or EOGM resolution, as they are silent on interim use of proceeds. The Board has been advised to take note. * Utilization during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, included ₹2.20 crore towards working capital, specifically for a payment made by subsidiary EFC Limited to Brantford Limited (a related party) for leasing machinery and equipment.
