“The UAE project which will start later this year has a capital expenditure of Rs 150 crore. We will use the proceeds of Rs 90 crore raised from the IPO for the project,” he said.

He noted that UAE does not have anti-dumping duty – a tariff imposed on imports manufactured in foreign countries that are priced below the fair market value, which is a positive and "we are eyeing for the huge Gulf market which is booming right now".
