KS Smart Technologies Limited (formerly Soma Papers and Industries Limited) submitted its quarterly monitoring agency report for Q4 FY26, covering the utilisation of Rs. 176.60 crore raised via a preferential issue (equity shares and convertible warrants) conducted on a private placement basis. The total issue comprised ~6.53 crore equity shares and ~4.86 crore convertible warrants. Of the net proceeds of Rs. 174.73 crore, Rs. 129.65 crore (74%) has been deployed as of 31 March 2026. Deployment includes full repayment of existing WOS debt (Rs. 75 crore), working capital infusion (Rs. 72.71 crore), issue expenses (Rs. 1.87 crore), and partial general corporate purpose spend (Rs. 18.80 crore of Rs. 22 crore). Capital expenditure of Rs. 5 crore has seen Rs. 4.50 crore deployed with Rs. 0.50 crore remaining. Rs. 46.95 crore remains unutilised — Rs. 46.72 crore held in a subsidiary's bank account (City Union Bank) and Rs. 0.23 crore in the parent's account — awaiting deployment. The monitoring agency (Infomerics Valuation and Rating Limited) confirms no deviations from the stated objects of the issue, no delays in implementation, and no unfavourable events affecting viability. The report is verified by statutory auditor Sharp & Tannan.
No red flags for shareholders — the company is on track with its stated use of funds. The Rs. 46.95 crore still sitting in bank accounts is expected to be deployed in FY27 for capital expenditure and general corporate purposes. No material deviations have been reported.
