We are dependent on LG Electronics, our Promoter, in various aspects of our business, and we pay royalty
to them under the License Agreement (defined below). Any adverse change in our relationship with LG
Electronics and the companies in the LG Group could have an adverse impact on our business, reputation,
financial condition and results of operations.
The royalty payments made by us to our Promoter under the License Agreement or otherwise may attract
regulatory scrutiny or action. As of the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we have a contingent liability
of Rs.3,153.00 million in respect of royalty payments to our Promoter. There is no assurance that such
observations will not be raised by the tax authorities in respect of future periods, which could then have
an adverse impact on our results of operations.
It is possible that the Promoter may engage in the same line of activity or business as that of our Company
in India which could result in conflicts of interest with us. In particular, Hi-M Solutek India Private
Limited, an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of Promoter provides services only to our Company.
However, our Company does not have an exclusive contractual arrangement with Hi-M Solutek. Further,
our Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management may have interests in our Company
in addition to their remuneration and reimbursement of expenses.
Increases in the prices of raw materials required for our operations could adversely affect our business
and results of operations.
Our top-five suppliers and top-10 suppliers contributed 22.08% and 32.25% of our total purchases of raw
materials, including components, in the three months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Further, we
source certain raw materials from suppliers in select countries outside India. Any interruption in the
availability of raw materials due to geopolitical uncertainties, shortages or supplier misconduct, among
other reasons, could adversely impact our business operations.
The Framework Agreement is valid unless terminated by either our Company or our Promoter, LG
Electronics, in accordance with the terms of the Framework Agreement, by providing a 30 day prior
written notice to the other party. If LG Electronics terminates this agreement with us, it would impact the
Group Transactions and Existing Arrangements (defined below), which in turn will materially and
adversely impact our business, reputation, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Our Company is subject to various outstanding tax claims amounting to Rs.47,170.55 million which is
approximately 73.16% of our Company's net worth of Rs.64,478.48 million as on June 30, 2025. We cannot
assure you that these claims will be decided in our favor and that no further liability will arise out of these
claims or would not have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of
operation of our Company.
We have certain contingent liabilities, which if materialize, may adversely affect our financial condition.
We derived 78.37% of our revenue from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025
from our Home Appliances and Air Solution division. Further, the revenue from sales of refrigerators,
washing machines, air conditioners and televisions contributed 34.59%, 18.48%, 20.40% and 16.71%,
respectively, of our revenue from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2025,
respectively. Any factor that negatively affects the sale of these products could adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our market share across select product categories has decreased. If our market share continues to
decrease, it could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
