Apollo Pipes has issued a corrigendum detailing the utilization of up to Rs 189.10 crore from its proposed preferential issue of fully convertible warrants. The proceeds will be deployed into proposed subsidiary(ies) by October 2028 to diversify into the tiles and ceramics business. The preferential issue entails issuing 31,00,000 warrants to non-promoters, which, along with 20,00,000 existing warrants, will dilute promoter shareholding from 55.46% to 49.71% post-conversion.

- Execution and capital misallocation risk entering a highly competitive and capital-intensive tiles and ceramics market.
- Recent profitability pressure (TTM net loss of Rs 15 crore) may constrain internal cash flows during diversification.
