Kamdhenu Ltd's CMD, Satish Kumar Agarwal, disclosed plans for raising Rs 1 billion through the issuance of convertible warrants on a preferential basis over the next 18 months. A fraction of this, Rs 242.7 billion, has already been secured.

Agarwal outlined the strategic utilization of the capital, aiming to revamp the franchisee business, invest in existing and new ventures in India or overseas, enhance manufacturing capabilities, and acquire new office spaces.

Speaking on the sector's outlook, Agarwal expressed optimism, citing significant growth prospects driven by the government's robust support for infrastructure projects, including initiatives like housing for all.
