Additionally, the reported operating cash flow of ₹-7.59 crores for FY25 raises concerns about the sustainability of core business operations.

The company has seen an adjustment in its evaluation, reflecting these ongoing challenges. Investors may need to consider these factors carefully when assessing the company's future prospects.
