CRISIL Ratings Limited, the Monitoring Agency, has submitted its report on the utilization of IPO proceeds for Diffusion Engineers Limited for Q4 FY2026. The company raised Rs 1,579.64 million through its IPO in September 2024, with net proceeds of Rs 1,421.95 million after issue expenses. As of March 31, 2026, Rs 775.06 million (49% of gross proceeds) has been utilized, leaving Rs 804.58 million unutilized. The working capital requirement of Rs 220 million has been fully deployed. Capital expenditure on Unit IV expansion has seen Rs 248.17 million utilized out of Rs 713.80 million allocated, while the new Hingna facility has received Rs 139.83 million of its Rs 303.85 million allocation. General corporate purpose funds of Rs 21.49 million were used to acquire a 5% equity stake in Tejorup Sunmay Systems Pvt Ltd, a defense equipment manufacturer. The company reports a delay in implementation due to longer equipment lead times, having deployed only Rs 418.70 million against the planned Rs 1,201.95 million by FY2026. Unutilized funds are parked in fixed deposits with Kotak Bank and Yes Bank.
The IPO proceeds deployment is behind schedule at roughly 35% of the planned utilization by FY2026, with significant unutilized funds earning modest returns in fixed deposits. However, no material deviations from the offer document have been flagged by the monitoring agency, and the delay is attributed to normal equipment procurement timelines. The working capital fully utilized and strategic investment in defense manufacturing are positive operational signals.
