• Working Capital Intensity: The company’s inventory holding period increased to 205 days in 9M FY2026, which may strain liquidity if sales velocity slows down.

While the company has shown a promising CAGR in revenue and profitability, its success post-listing will depend on its ability to replicate its Mumbai/Ahmedabad cluster success in new geographies while maintaining its current margin profile.
