CARE Ratings submitted its Q4 FY26 monitoring report for Hindustan Foods' Rs 377.50 crore preferential issue of convertible warrants. Out of Rs 374 crore net proceeds, Rs 321.58 crore (86%) has been utilized. Key deployments include Rs 103.09 crore for acquisitions (including Rs 6 crore paid in Q4 for Ultra Beauty Care Private Limited's business for total Rs 19.90 crore), Rs 77.14 crore for greenfield projects, Rs 67.10 crore for brownfield projects, and Rs 74.25 crore for general corporate purposes. Shareholders approved reallocation of Rs 50 crore between objects in September 2025. The remaining Rs 52.42 crore is deployed in HDFC Bank fixed deposits. The monitoring agency flagged that cancellation of 5.32 lakh warrants may impact object viability.
The warrant cancellation reduced proceeds by Rs 22.50 crore (5.6%), and fund commingling between monitoring and current accounts was noted. Overall, utilization is on track with no material deviation from approved objects. The ongoing expansion and acquisition activity suggests continued growth execution, though dilution risk remains from pending warrant conversions.
