The proceeds from the IPO will be primarily used to fund capital expenditure for setting up an integrated manufacturing facility. This includes land acquisition, civil construction, and procurement of plant and machinery, with an allocation of INR 65.88 crore. An additional INR 6.99 crore will be invested in the company's subsidiary, Safe Enterprises Retail Technologies Private Limited, for infrastructure development.

Furthermore, INR 40 crore will be used to meet working capital requirements for both the parent company and its subsidiary. The remaining funds will be used for general corporate purposes.
