9. MATERIALCHANGES AFFECTING THE FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE COMPANY:

During the financial year 2024-25, there are following material changes which affect the financial position of
thecompany:

A.    PREFERENTIAL ISSUE OF EQUITY SHARES AND WARRANTS

The Company undertook a preferential issue of equity shares and warrants, which has had a significant impact
on its financial position, capital structure, and shareholding pattern. Pursuant to the Board Resolution passed
on October 3, 2024, and the Special Resolution passed by the shareholders on October 28, 2024, the Company
issued 6,05,538 equity shares at an issue price of Rs. 578 per share, along with 8,65,052 warrants at the same
price of Rs. 578 per warrant, each of which was convertible into one equity share. As of the date of this report,
all the warrants have been fully converted into equity shares, thereby increasing the paid-up share capital of
the Company.

This preferential issue and subsequent conversion of warrants have resulted in a substantial increase in the
Company’s equity base, providing it with additional capital that will be used to enhance its working capital
position, fund business expansion, and support other corporate purposes. The capital raised has alsoimproved
the Company’s financial liquidity, enabling it to better position itself for future growth and operational
requirements.

However, the issuance of additional shares and the conversion of warrants have led to a dilution of the
promoter’s shareholding. While the dilution is a natural outcome of raising capital through equity issuance,
the Company remains committed to its long-term growth strategy and to generating sustainable value for its
shareholders. The Company views this capital infusion as a strategic move to fund its growth initiatives and
improve its market position, while ensuring a strong financial foundation for the future.

B.    FORMATIONOF SMILEWORKS PRIVATE LIMITED - SUBSIDIARY IN INDIA

During the financial year 2024-25, the Company established a new subsidiary, Smileworks Private Limited,
which was incorporated on October 29, 2024. The subsidiary was set up to support the Company’s long¬
term growth strategy by diversifying its business and expanding into new markets. The paid-up share capital
of Smileworks Private Limited is Rs. 3,01,00,000, and the Company holds a 60% stake in this newly formed
subsidiary.

This strategic move allows the Company to tap into new business opportunities in the relevant sector, enhance
its market presence, and increase its operational efficiencies. The formation of Smileworks Private Limited will
not only contribute positively to the Company’s consolidated financial position but will also provide significant
growth potential in the near and long term. The Company intends to leverage the capabilities and resources
of this subsidiary to complement and expand its existing operations, with a focus on improving market share,
profitability, and business sustainability.

C. FORMATION OF FOREIGN SUBSIDIARY IN THE UNITED KINGDOM (UK)

Subsequent to the closure of the financial year, on May 21, 2025, the Company formed a foreign subsidiary
named Dentalkart Distribution UK Limited in the United Kingdom. The subsidiary is headquartered in England
and Wales, with its registered office located at 120 Honeysuckle Avenue, Cheltenham, GL53 0AT. The Company
holds a 51% stake in Dentalkart Distribution UK Limited, which allows it to exercise significant control over the
subsidiary’s operations in the UK and Europe.

The establishment of Dentalkart Distribution UK Limited aligns with the Company’s strategic goal to expand
its international footprint and strengthen its position in the European markets. The subsidiary will primarily
focus on distributing the Company’s dental products and services across the UK and neighboring regions.

Under the first tranche of the Scheme, the Company granted a total of 39,215 employee stock options to

fixed exercise price of ?10 per share, being the face value of the equity shares. The grant under Tranche 1

20.    CREDITRATINGS

During the financial year, CRISIL Ratings Limited has reaffirmed the Company’s credit rating as under:
Long-TermBankFacilities(Rs.15 crore)-CRISILBBB/Stable

The rating reflects the Company’s established operational track record in oral care contract manufacturing,
long-standing association with reputed clients, and experienced promoters. CRISIL has noted stable
performance in FY24, supported by improvement in scale and sustained operating margins. The financial risk
profileis adequate, with a conservative capital structure and efficient working capital management.

However, the rating is constrained by the modest scale of operations, high client concentration risk, and
exposure to volatility in raw material prices. The outlook remains Stable, indicating CRISIL’s expectation that
the Companywillmaintain its credit profile over the medium term.

flexibility in issuing securities, the Company inserted a new Clause 8 in its Articles of Association. This newly
inserted clause enables the Board of Directors to undertake further issuances of securities, including by way of
preferential allotment or private placement, in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory frameworks.
Theinsertedclausereadsasfollows:

“Notwithstanding anything contained, further issue of securities may be made in any manner whatsoever as the

with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, the rules made thereunder, and the pricing methodology as

STATE OF COMPANY’S AFFAIRS AND

future outlook

INDIAN DENTAL CARE INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

India climbed to the 63rd rank among 190 countries in the World Bank’s ‘Ease of Doing Business’ rankings in 2020. The World Bank’s Logistics Performance Index (LPI) 2023 has ranked India at 38th position (out of 139 economies), recording an improvement of 6 positions. As of 2024, the Indian healthcare sector is one of India’s largest employers as it employs a total of 7.5 million people. Progress in telemedicine, virtual assistants, and data analytics is expected to create 2.7-3.5 million new tech jobs.

Rising income levels, an ageing population, growing health awareness and a changing attitude towards preventive healthcare is expected to boost healthcare services demand in the future. The low cost of medical services has resulted in a rise in the country’s medical tourism, attracting patients from across the world. Moreover, India has emerged as a hub for R&D activities for international players due to its relatively low cost of clinical research.

The healthcare sector, as of 2024 is one of India’s largest employers, employing a total of 7.5 million people. The demand for Indian healthcare professionals is expected to double nationally and globally by 2030 due to a shortage of healthcare workers in India, where there are only 1.7 nurses per 1,000 people and a doctor-to-patient ratio of 1:1,500 nationwide.

The Indian dental industry consists mainly of independent clinics operated by individual dentists. However, there has been a recent emergence of dental specialty chains in major cities of India, which are often supported by venture capital or private equity funding. These chains have contributed significantly to the growth of the industry by promoting the use of advanced, high-quality tools, fittings, and equipment. Indian companies primarily focus on the production of clinical disposables, instruments, disinfectant tools, sterilizing equipment, impression materials, and temporary materials for tooth filling.

The high-end segment of the market, such as dental implants, fittings, and prosthetics, is mainly dominated by foreign players with local presence in India, although many Indian companies also manufacture under license for foreign manufacturers while simultaneously engaging in trade and importing activities. Currently, there are around 5,000 dental laboratories and 300 dental institutes providing basic and advanced oral health care. As the number of dental chains increases, the organized dental clinics'' share is expected to grow across the country. India has 3,00,000 registered dental graduates, and 280,000 are actively practicing dentists. 99% of the dental market in India is private. Over 50% of dentists work in and around major cities.

INDIAN DENTAL CARE INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Certain demographic and epidemiological changes are expected to increase healthcare demand while also influencing the types of health services required in the future. One such development is increased income, which can result in roughly 73 million Indian households entering the middle class over the next ten years, encouraging their purchasing power, especially in healthcare.

By 2026, it is expected that 8% of Indians will earn more than USD 12,000 per year. Another noteworthy trend is the rise in life expectancy and the ageing of the population. India''s Life expectancy on an Average is 70 years, while the country''s population is expected to grow to 1.45 billion by 2028, making it the world''s most populous country.

While India has the largest population of youth of any country in the world, the number of senior citizens (those aged 60 and more) is also increasing. In fact, it is predicted that by 2041, the proportion of senior citizens in India''s population will have doubled, from 8.6% in 2011. India is anticipated to have 300 million senior persons by the year 2050.

The Indian dental industry consists mainly of independent clinics operated by individual dentists. However, there has been a recent emergence of dental specialty chains in major cities of India, which are often supported by venture capital or private equity funding. These chains have contributed significantly to the growth of the industry by promoting the use of advanced, high-quality tools, fittings, and equipment. Indian companies primarily focus on the production of clinical disposables, instruments, disinfectant tools, sterilizing equipment, impression materials, and temporary materials for tooth filling.

The high-end segment of the market, such as dental implants, fittings, and prosthetics, is mainly dominated by foreign players with local presence in India, although many Indian companies also manufacture under license for foreign manufacturers while simultaneously engaging in trade and importing activities. Currently, there are around 5,000 dental laboratories and 300 dental institutes providing basic and advanced oral health care. As the number of dental chains increases, the organized dental clinics’ share is expected to grow across the country. India has 3,03,603 registered dental graduates, and 80% of them are actively practicing dentists. 99% of the dental market in India is private.

India''s dental care market was valued at $2.1 Bn in 2022 and is estimated to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.40% from 2022 to 2030 and will reach $4.31 Bn in 2030. India''s economy has undergone a change from a mixed planned economy to a mixed middle-income emerging social market economy with significant state intervention in key industries. By nominal GDP, it is the fifth-largest economy in the world, and by purchasing power parity, it is the third-largest.
