The company have stable annual income owing to the long-term O&M contracts that we enter into with their customers. Inox Green Energy is a subsidiary of Inox Wind Limited (“IWL”), a company which is listed on the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited, and part of the Inox GFL group of companies (“Inox GFL Group”). The subsidiaries are engaged in the business of power generation through renewable sources of energy with Nani Virani Wind Energy Private Limited being the only subsidiary which has commenced power generation as of the date of this Red Herring Prospectus.

We enjoy synergistic benefits as a subsidiary of IWL, which is principally engaged in the business of manufacturing WTGs and providing turnkey solutions by supplying WTGs and offering a variety of services including wind resource assessment, site acquisition, infrastructure development, EPC of WTGs, and, through the Company, providing long-term O&M services for wind power projects. Pursuant to an exclusivity agreement between IWL and the Company, we provide exclusive O&M services for all WTGs sold by IWL through the entry of long-term O&M contracts between the WTG purchaser and ourselves for terms which typically range between five to 20 years.

Due to this exclusivity agreement, IWL’s order book is an important indicator of future revenue and growth for the Company. As of June 30, 2022, IWL had entered into binding contracts for the supply of 2 MW capacity WTGs with an aggregate capacity of 964 MW. Further, IWL had also received letters of intent, which are non-binding and which therefore may not lead to execution of any form of binding contract, for its new 3.3 MW capacity WTGs with an aggregate capacity of 524.7 MW.

Set out below is a diagram which summarizes the general process from the manufacturing of a WTG by, for example, IWL, to the point where the provision of the O&M services commences.

InoxGreen is a subsidiary of Inox Wind which is engaged in the business of manufacturing of Wind Turbines and other services related to Wind Energy.

So, They are totally dependent on Inox Wind for their revenues. 5. InoxGreen Energy revenue has increased from 172 Crores to 190 Crores from Fy20 to Fy22 but due to high finance cost, & depreciation, the company is in loss. 6. Though company is in loss but operational level company has generated a cash of 361 Crores in Fy20, 48 Crores in Fy21 and 141 Crores in Fy22. 7. Nothing much in the company to excite for investment purpose. The financials profile is very weak for promoters and for the IPO company also.
