It derives a significant portion of its revenue from its top 10 clients. Loss of all or a substantial portion of sales to any of its top 10 clients, in particular for any reason (including, due to loss of contracts or failure to negotiate acceptable terms, loss of market share of these clients in their industries, disputes with these clients, adverse change in the financial condition of these clients, decline in their sales, plant shutdowns, labour strikes or other work stoppages affecting production of these clients), could have an adverse impact on its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Dependent on government funding for drilling and exploration activities: The company is dependent on the Ministry of Coal for Central Sector Scheme (CSS) funding for exploration in coal and on the Ministry of Mine for the National Mineral Exploration Trust (NMET) funding for enhancing exploration activities in the coal and other minerals sector. This reliance ties the progress of its projects directly to the government's budgetary decisions and policy changes, creating a high degree of uncertainty. The nature of government funding is inherently subject to various uncertainties, including changes in fiscal priorities, budgetary constraints, and shifts in policy direction. These factors can lead to delays in the approval and disbursement of funds, which in turn can stall its drilling and exploration activities. Additionally, any reduction in the allocated budget for CSS or NMET can severely impact its ability to initiate or continue ongoing projects, leading to potential delays and disruptions in its operations.

Dependence on Coal India for revenue generation: The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Coal India. It provides consultancy services to Coal India Limited and its subsidiaries across various domains, including coal exploration, mine planning and design, environmental engineering, coal beneficiation and utilization, allied engineering services, information and communication technology, human resource development, remote sensing, and field services.

Any decline in demand for its services from Coal India and/or its subsidiaries could have an adverse impact on its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Revenue concentration in Geological exploration and resource evaluation: The company classifies its business operations into (i) geological exploration and resource evaluation; (ii) mine planning and design services; (iii) environment services; (iv) geomatics and survey services. Significant portion of its revenues is derived from its geological exploration and resource evaluation services, which accounted for 45.8%, 45.0%, 46.2%, 38.6% and 39.3% of its revenue from operations in in the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
