Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1.	Organization and the Nature of Business

TripBorn, Inc. (“TripBorn” or the “Company”) is a business to business online travel agency (“OTA”) that offers travel reservations and related travel services and products to travel agents in India through its proprietary internet-based platform at www.tripborn.com. TripBorn is a holding company that was incorporated in Delaware in January 2010 and operated as a shell company with nominal or no assets or operations until December 2015 when it acquired substantially all of the outstanding common stock of its operating subsidiary, Sunalpha Green Technologies Private Limited (“Sunalpha”). The Company has selected March 31 as its fiscal year end.

TripBorn was known as PinstripesNYC, Inc. until January 2016. TripBorn filed reports as PinstripesNYC, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) from August 2010 until it terminated its registration under the Exchange Act in May 2013.

On December 14, 2015, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Sunalpha, which was incorporated under the laws of the Republic of India on November 4, 2010. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Sunalpha was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, and TripBorn was the acquired company.

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Policies

These financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) as detailed in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).

Basis of Presentation

The acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Sunalpha by TripBorn on December 14, 2015 was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Sunalpha was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, and TripBorn was the acquired company. Consequently, the assets, liabilities and results of operations that are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements prior to the December 14, 2015 transaction are those of Sunalpha and are recorded using the historical cost basis. The consolidated financial statements after completion of the December 14, 2015 transaction include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Sunalpha up to the day prior to the closing of the transaction, and the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Company and Sunalpha from and after the closing of the transaction on December 14, 2015. All significant related party accounts and transactions between the Company and Sunalpha have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

The Company provides travel products and services to leisure and corporate travelers in India and abroad. The revenue from rendering these services is recognized at the time when significant risk and rewards are transferred to the customer. This is generally the case: (1) on the date of departure for vacation packages, (2) on the date of check in for hotel booking business and (3) on the date of issuance for the sale of airline tickets.

Revenue from the sale of airline tickets is recognized as an agent on a net commission earned basis, when the Company does not assume any performance obligation following the confirmation of the issuance of an airline ticket to the customer. In instances where the Company has procured coupons for airline tickets in advance for an anticipated future demand from customers and assumes the risk of loss for tickets not used, the revenue from the sale of such airline tickets is accounted for on the gross basis.

Incentives from airlines are recognized when the performance obligations under the incentive programs are achieved.

Revenue from hotel reservations, including commissions earned, is recognized on a net basis as an agent, on the date of check-in, when the Company does not assume any performance obligation following the issuance of a hotel confirmation voucher to the customer. Where the Company has pre-booked hotel rooms for an anticipated future demand from customers and assumes the risk for unused hotel rooms, revenue from the sale of such hotel rooms is accounted for on the gross basis. Performance linked incentives from hotel bookings are recognized as income on achievement of performance obligations.

Table of Contents

Revenue from vacation packages, including income from airline tickets sold to customers as a part of vacation packages, is accounted for on the gross basis as the Company is determined to be the primary obligor in the arrangement i.e., the Company bears the risks and responsibilities, including the responsibility for delivery of services.

Revenue from our cash transfer product is recognized as an agent on a net commission earned basis, as the Company does not assume any performance obligation following the confirmation of the money transfer.

Revenue from other sources, primarily comprising revenue from rail and bus ticket reservations is recognized as the services are performed. Revenue from rail and bus ticket reservations is recognized as an agent on a net commission earned basis, as the Company does not assume any performance obligation following the confirmation of the issuance of the ticket to the customer.

Revenue is recognized net of cancellations, refunds, discounts and taxes. In the event tickets are cancelled, revenue recognized with respect to commissions earned by the Company on such tickets is reversed and is netted against the revenue earned during the fiscal period, at the time the cancellation is made by the customer. In addition, a liability is recognized with respect to the refund due to the customers for the gross amount charged to such customers net of cancellation fees. The revenue from the sale of vacation packages and hotel reservations is recognized on the customer’s departure and check-in dates, respectively. Cancellations, if any, do not impact revenue recognition since revenue is recognized upon the availment of services by the customer.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of costs paid to hotel and vacation package suppliers for the acquisition of relevant services and products for sale to customers and includes the procurement cost of hotel rooms and other services.

Cost of revenue is the amount paid or accrued to procure these services and products from the respective suppliers and do not include any other operating cost to provide these services or products. Cost of revenue is recognized when incurred, which coincides with the recognition of the corresponding revenue.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses include costs such as advertising and business promotion costs, utilities, rent, payroll and consultants fees and charges, which are recognized on an accrual basis. Depreciation and amortization costs are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The estimates underlying the Company’s Financial Statements relate to, accruals for travel transactions, valuation of accounts receivable, useful life of long-lived assets and income taxes.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments (including money market funds) with an original maturity at acquisition of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances, which may exceed federally insured limits. The Company does not believe that this results in any significant credit risk.

Sunalpha has nine accounts denominated in Indian Rupees. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, the cash balance in financial institutions in India was USD $229,520 and $155,886, respectively. The transactions are undertaken in Indian Rupees and requires a foreign currency translation adjustment. The Company’s cash deposits in India are not insured against loss. The Company does not believe that this results in any significant credit risk.

Receivables and Credit Policies

Accounts receivable are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms which generally range from 24 hours to seven to ten days from the time and date of transaction. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Customer account balances with invoices exceeding credit terms are considered delinquent. Payments of accounts receivable are allocated to specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoices.

Table of Contents

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company charges repairs and maintenance costs that do not extend the lives of the assets to expenses as incurred.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets that have limited useful lives are amortized on a straight line basis over the shorter of their useful or legal lives.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which are not insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk related to its cash holdings.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between tax bases of assets and liabilities and amounts reported on the balance sheets as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred taxes are classified as current or noncurrent based on the balance sheet classification of the related assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax results primarily from temporary differences related to net property and equipment for financial and income tax reporting.

US GAAP requires the Company’s management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Company and recognize a tax liability or asset if the Company has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company has concluded that as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 there are no material uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or asset or disclosure in the financial statements. The Company is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Company’s management believes that the Company’s income tax returns for the last three years remain subject to examination based on normal statutory periods subject to audits, notwithstanding any events or circumstances that may exist which could expand the open period.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company translates the foreign currency financial statements into US Dollars using the year or reporting period end or average exchange rates in accordance with the requirements of ASC subtopic 830-10, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830-10”). Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect for the periods presented. The cumulative translation adjustment is included in the accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) within shareholders’ equity (deficit).

3.	Change in Control Transaction

On December 8, 2015, the Company issued 71,428,570 shares of common stock to Arna Global LLC (“Arna”) for cash consideration of $95,500. Arna is wholly-owned by the Company’s President and director, Deepak Sharma. The Company accounted for the change in control transaction with Arna using the acquisition method of accounting. Arna obtained control of 93% of the outstanding shares of common stock of PinstripesNYC, Inc. in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement among PinstripesNYC, Inc., Arna, and Maxim Kelyfos, LLC dated December 8, 2015, and was the acquirer. This transaction resulted in (1) no identifiable assets being acquired, (2) no liabilities being assumed, (3) no goodwill being recognized and (4) no gains being recognized from a bargain purchase.

4.	Acquisition of Sunalpha Green Technologies Private Limited

On December 14, 2015, the Company acquired substantially all of the outstanding shares of Sunalpha which was incorporated under the laws of the Republic of India in November 2010. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Sunalpha was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, and TripBorn was the acquired company. Consequently, the assets, liabilities and results of operations that are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements prior to the December 14, 2015 transaction are those of Sunalpha and are recorded using the historical cost basis. The consolidated financial statements after completion of the December 14, 2015 transaction include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Sunalpha up to the day prior to the closing of the transaction, and the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Company and Sunalpha from and after the closing date of the transaction.

12.	Income Tax

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax assets at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 were $318,809 and $226,331, respectively.

The Company files its income tax returns on a fiscal year basis.

The future effective income tax rate depends on various factors, such as the Company’s income (loss) before taxes, tax legislation and the geographic composition of pre-tax income.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction and various State jurisdictions. Sunalpha files tax returns in India. The Company is generally subject to U.S. Federal, State and local examinations by tax authorities for the past three years.

13.	New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in US GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Deferral of the Effective Date” (“ASU 2015-14”), which defers the effective date for ASU 2014-09 by one year. For public entities, the guidance in ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (including interim reporting periods within those periods), and for all other entities, ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue versus Net)” (“ASU 2016-08”), which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations in the new revenue recognition standard. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (“ASU 2016-10”), which reduces the complexity when applying the guidance for identifying performance obligations and improves the operability and understandability of the license implementation guidance. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12 “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” (“ASU 2016-12”), which amends the guidance on transition, collectability, noncash consideration and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes. Preliminarily, the Company plans to adopt Topic 606 using the retrospective transition method, and is continuing to evaluate the impact its pending adoption of Topic 606 will have on its consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that its current revenue recognition policies are generally consistent with the new revenue recognition standards set forth in ASU 2014-09. Potential adjustments to input measures are not expected to be pervasive to the majority of the Company’s contracts. While no significant impact is expected upon adoption of the new guidance, the Company will not be able to make that determination until the time of adoption based upon outstanding contracts at that time.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” to address diversity in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments provide guidance on the following eight specific cash flow issues: (1) Debt Prepayment or Debt Extinguishment Costs; (2) Settlement of Zero-Coupon Debt Instruments or Other Debt Instruments with Coupon Interest Rates That Are Insignificant in Relation to the Effective Interest Rate of the Borrowing; (3) Contingent Consideration Payments Made after a Business Combination; (4) Proceeds from the Settlement of Insurance Claims; (5) Proceeds from the Settlement of Corporate-Owned Life Insurance Policies, including Bank-Owned; (6) Life Insurance Policies; (7) Distributions Received from Equity Method Investees; (8) Beneficial Interests in Securitization Transactions; and (9) Separately Identifiable Cash Flows and Application of the Predominance Principle. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. If it is impracticable to apply the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

iii.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases” to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 creates a new ASC 842 "Leases" to replace the previous ASC 840 "Leases." ASU 2016-02 affects both lessees and lessors, although for the latter the provisions are similar to the previous model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and also the new revenue recognition provisions contained in ASU 2014-09. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-17, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control.” The amendments affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate a variable interest entity in certain situations involving entities under common control. Specifically, the amendments change the evaluation of whether a reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity by changing how a reporting entity that is a single decision maker of a variable interest entity treats indirect interests in the entity held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash," which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU apply to all entities that have restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and are required to present a statement of cash flows under Topic 230. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

14.	Net Income (Loss) Per Share

A reconciliation of net loss and weighted average shares used in computing basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

	First Quarter Ended June 30,
	2017			2016
Basic net income (loss) per share:
Net income (loss) applicable to common shares	$	(222,542	)	$	(130,045	)
Weighted average common shares outstanding		80,660,849			76,804,914
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock	$	(0.00	)	$	(0.00	)
Diluted net income (loss) per share:
Net income (loss) applicable to common shares	$	(222,542	)	$	(130,045	)
Weighted average common shares outstanding		80,660,849			76,804,914
Dilutive effects of convertible debt		-			-
Weighted average common shares, assuming dilutive effect of convertible debt		80,660,849			76,804,914
Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock	$	(0.00	)	$	(0.00	)

Due to net loss, the shares of common stock underlying the convertible notes described in Notes 9 and 10 were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share, as they would have had an antidilutive effect.

15.	Commitments

The Company is the B2B Principal Agent of the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation, or IRCTC, which is a government entity that allows the Company to offer reservations through Indian Railways’ passenger reservation system on the Company’s webpage.

Overview

We are an online travel agency, sometimes referred to as an OTA, that offers travel reservations and related travel services and products to travel agents in India through our website, www.tripborn.com. Currently, we operate as a business to business, or B2B, online travel agency that serves travel agents and travel companies based in India in booking travel services and products for their customers. Through our internet-based platform, our travel agent customers can search and book domestic and international air tickets, hotels, vacation packages, rail tickets and bus tickets, as well as ancillary travel-related services, and e-commerce money transfer products. We serve over 3,557 travel agents in the Indian states of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Karnataka and Madya Pradesh. At this time, approximately 85% of our travel agent customers are based in Gujarat, primarily in and around the city of Ahmedabad.

We are a holding company incorporated in Delaware in 2010. Deepak Sharma, our President and director, formed our operating subsidiary, Sunalpha Green Technologies Private Limited, under the laws of the Republic of India in 2010. Sunalpha commenced operations as an OTA in India in February 2014.

Prior to acquiring Sunalpha in December 2015, we operated as a shell company with nominal or no assets or operations. We were known as PinstripesNYC, Inc. until January 2016. We filed reports as PinstripesNYC, Inc. with the SEC under the Exchange Act from August 2010 until we terminated our registration under the Exchange Act in May 2013. Our fiscal year ends on March 31. We refer to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 as fiscal 2017 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 as fiscal 2016.

We manage our OTA business through Travelcord, our proprietary internet-based online transaction platform. Through our website, www.tripborn.com, we offer a wide inventory of travel services and products to travel agents who serve the growing middle class of largely offline travelers in semi-urban and rural regions of India. Through our proprietary technology, we consolidate and provide our travel agent customers with access to travel bookings and hotel reservations that otherwise would be costly and time-consuming to obtain for their customers in an often-fragmented marketplace. While some of our more established competitors have focused on selling directly to consumers in urban areas, our travel agent partners tend to be small, brick and mortar establishments that serve travelers who rely on more personalized transactions for their travel booking needs due to language barriers and lack of access to the internet or credit cards. We have grown our operations through referrals and a focus on addressing our travel agent customers’ needs through technology. As internet penetration in India continues to increase, we anticipate that we will be in a position to use our established platform to offer travel services and products directly to consumers.

We generate revenue through our ticketing business, which includes rail ticketing, bus ticketing and air ticketing, and our hotel reservations and vacation and business packages business. We also generate revenue by providing online payment services and access to visa processing services.

In our ticketing business, our main sources of revenue are (i) commissions and incentive payments from airline suppliers for tickets booked by our travel agent customers through our distribution channels and (ii) service fees we charge our customers.

Our Services and Products

Our internet-based platform at www.tripborn.com provides participating travel agents, travel managers, arrangers and corporations with the ability to quickly search and book the services described below for their largely offline customers. Many of our arrangements with our travel service suppliers are informal and provide our counterparties with the ability to terminate or suspend the arrangements with little or no notice. Our arrangements with our travel service suppliers with respect to the terms of our sales targets, incentives, commissions and discounts often are subject to change at the discretion of our supplier and are negotiated periodically on a quarterly or yearly basis, if not more frequently. We also typically pay fees to our travel service suppliers to directly connect into their booking systems on an initial and/or ongoing basis.

Air ticketing

Our travel agent customers can book domestic or international flights through our website. We have agreements with India’s three domestic low cost carriers. In addition, through our website, we offer our travel agents access to international air tickets to destinations worldwide as an approved agent of the International Association of Travel Agents, or IATA, and through our aggregators, which have agreed to provide us with access to their airline ticket inventory.

Our platform at www.tripborn.com allows our customers to search for available tickets based on their customers’ requirements. Our platform quickly processes the available inventory of our aggregators and suppliers and displays the results, including availability, schedules and prices. The prices displayed include the commission that our customers will earn on the ticket sales.

We typically procure tickets from our suppliers and sell them to our travel agent customers. We earn revenue by charging a markup or adding fees to the ticket price and by charging booking fees, service charges and/or payment gateway charges for using our website. We also receive revenue from our suppliers by earning incentives and/or commissions based on the volume of tickets we purchase from our suppliers. We may pre-purchase blocks of air tickets from our suppliers and hold them to resell within specified time periods. If we are not able to sell these pre-purchased tickets, we recognize a loss. We also may pay in advance for air tickets to receive a discount on purchases from our suppliers. These advance payments are credited toward future air ticket sales.

Hotel reservations

We offer access to reservations with 400,000 hotels across the world, including hotels in India through aggregators that we have directly connected into our booking system. Our platform allows our travel agent customers to meet their customers’ needs by searching for hotel availability by location and sorting search results by star ratings and price. Our search results include photos and descriptions of the hotels’ amenities. We arrange for hotel bookings for our travel agent customers by securing the booking at base rates and earn revenue by including a markup or fees on the rates billed to our travel agent customers and by charging booking fees, service charges and/or payment gateway charges for using our website. We also may earn incentives and/or commissions from our suppliers for completing bookings. In some cases, our employees may arrange for hotel bookings directly with individual hotels. In addition, we may pre-purchase blocks of reservations from our suppliers and hold them to resell within specified time periods. If we are not able to sell these reservations, we recognize a loss.

Bus ticketing

Our travel agent customers can book bus tickets on our website through an aggregator that is directly connected into our booking system. Our platform consolidates ticketing for largely unorganized regional bus services for the benefit of our travel agent customers and their customers. As a value-added service, our platform allows our travel agent customers to select specific seats by gender, which is of interest to their Indian customers. We may also procure bus tickets offline from individual bus operators for our travel agent customers. We procure bus tickets for our travel agent customers at base rates and earn revenue by including a markup or fees on the tickets. We also earn incentives and commissions from our supplier for completing bookings.

Rail ticketing

We are a B2B Principal Agent of the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation, or IRCTC, which is a government entity that allows us to offer reservations through Indian Railways’ passenger reservation system on our webpage. Indian Railways is India’s state-owned railway, which owns and operates most of India’s rail transportation. We have integrated our system with IRCTC’s to provide a seamless booking process for our travel agent customers. According to the 2015-2016 annual report of the Ministry of Railways, Indian Railways sold 200 million tickets in 2015-2016 and carries approximately 23 million passengers daily. Rail travel is the primary mode of transportation for Indians, particularly in rural areas.

As a Principal Agent, we enroll our travel agent customers to book rail tickets for their customers through our platform. We earn revenue by collecting enrollment fees from our travel agent customers, by collecting service charges on each seat booked and by collecting payment gateway charges on the amount of the transaction. The IRCTC determines ticket prices and the maximum amount of the service charge (currently, between approximately $0.30 and $0.60 per ticket). We also may charge our travel agent customers a fee based on the percentage of the transaction value for payment gateway charges (currently, up to two percent).

Sunalpha entered into an agreement with IRCTC for a one-year term that expired in October 2016. On September 30, 2016, Sunalpha renewed its agreement with the IRCTC. The agreement will expire on October 5, 2017 and may be renewed for an additional annual term in the discretion of the IRCTC. The IRCTC may terminate or temporarily suspend the agreement without prior notice.

Visa processing

Through third parties, we can arrange for visa processing as an ancillary service for the customers of our travel agent customers. We pay our suppliers for the service and collect fees from our travel agent customers.

Vacation packages

Our travel agent customers can search our platform for available vacation packages or submit inquiries regarding their customers’ preferences to be fulfilled by us and/or our third-party suppliers. Our call center also is available to our travel agent customers to facilitate these requests. We arrange for vacation package bookings for our travel agent customers by securing the booking at base rates and earn revenue by including a markup or fees on the rates billed to our travel agent customers and by charging booking fees, service charges and/or payment gateway charges for using our website. We also may earn incentives and/or commissions from our suppliers for completing bookings. In addition, we may create packages based on our travel agent customers’ specifications by purchasing the components of the package from our suppliers as necessary.

Pre- and post-paid services and utilities

As a value-added service, our travel agent customers may use our internet platform to make pre- and post-paid mobile payments and payments for television service and data cards on behalf of their customers. We pay our suppliers for the services and earn a commission as a percentage of the price of the services. We also pass a service charge on to our travel agent customers.

Money transfer product

As a value-added service, our travel agent customers may use our internet platform to make cash transfers on behalf of their customers. We pay our suppliers for the services and earn a commission as a percentage of the price of the services. We also pass a service charge on to our travel agent customers.

Historical Operations and Outlook

Since commencing operations as an OTA in February 2014, we have grown our business by initially processing a few transactions a day to processing approximately 3,000 transactions per day in June 2017. In our quarter ended June 30, 2017, we processed 231,233 transactions and 4 million searches were performed on our platform. Flight searches on our website have grown from a few per day in February 2014 to over 6,000 flight searches per day in June 2017. Our travel agent customers log in nearly 1,150 times per day and spend more than 20 minutes on the platform daily. We have steadily worked to add suppliers in order to provide additional services and better pricing for our travel agent customers. In the development stages, we have relied on user feedback to enhance our core technology. As internet penetration in India continues to increase, we anticipate that we will be in a position to use our established platform to offer travel services and related services directly to consumers. We believe our online platform is capable of managing hundreds of suppliers and millions of transactions in furtherance of our growth strategies.

In November 2015, we integrated the Indian Railway reservation system into our online platform using complex and scalable technology tools. Previously, we provided rail ticketing through a third party supplier. Becoming a principal agent has resulted in and will continue to result in an increase in rail ticketing revenue associated with an increase in fees associated with enrolling our travel agent customers and usage fees for ticketing. We have also experienced, and anticipate that we will continue to see, an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses associated with hiring additional personnel and expanding our marketing activities in connection with the expanded rail ticketing services as well as an increase in legal and consulting expenses associated with becoming a reporting company with the SEC.

Assuming we are successful in enrolling new travel agents while retaining our existing travel agents, we anticipate that we will achieve sustainable and predictable cash flow and revenue growth, year-over-year. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in implementing our business model and achieving our operational and financial objectives.

We expect to see an increase in bookings through our website and a corresponding increase in revenue in fiscal 2018 due to the recent expansion of our sales force and our expansion into the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Madya Pradesh. In fiscal 2018, we expect to expand into other neighboring states in India.

India remains a largely unbanked country with cash transactions typical. The Indian government’s decision to demonetize their two largest bank notes in circulation on November 8, 2016 caused a disruption throughout India’s economy, slowing growth and forcing customers to focus on day to day expenses. This move slowed India’s GDP during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 to 6.1% causing India to lose its status as being the world’s fastest growing economy. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, India’s GDP grew by 6.1%. Growth in some of our travel products slowed during the quarter, while our money transfer product grew during this period. We believe that the slowdown in growth will be short lived as the impacts of re-monetization have begun to be felt and GDP growth is projected to be 7.2% and 7.5% in 2017 and 2018.

Effective July 1, 2017 the Indian Government introduced a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination based national goods and services tax (“GST”) that combines taxes and levies by the Central and State Governments into a unified tax structure. The implementation of the GST has a significant impact on overall tax computation and compliance. We believe that the GST may have an impact on our margins. We have implemented the necessary changes to our business processes, accounting, and information systems to fully comply with this new law. We may incur additional tax compliance costs under this new tax law.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year end March 31, 2017.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we continued to add new markets and add an increasing number of sales agents that offer our services. These changes drove an increase in our net revenues. Our costs of revenue and operating expenses increased as we expanded our market reach and drove the increase in net loss from operations.

Revenue

Net revenues for the first quarter ended June 30, 2017 were $108,461 compared to $94,242 for the first quarter ended June 30, 2016. Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 consisted of $21,900 from air ticketing compared to $27,392 in the prior year quarter, $0 from bus ticketing compared to $280 in the prior year quarter, $8,896 from rail ticketing compared to $820 in the prior year quarter, $819 from hotel booking compared to $1,474 in the prior year quarter, $18,873 from vacation packages compared to $46,686 in the prior year quarter, $6,638 from payment services compared to $1,871 in the prior year quarter, and $51,335 from incentives from our aggregators and suppliers and fees, penalty income and surcharges from our travel agent customers compared to $15,719 in the prior year. The primary driver was the increase in incentives from our aggregators and suppliers, which was fueled by an increase in the number of transaction that were processed. Revenue was also impacted by the revenue growth from rail ticketing, hotel booking, and payment services, which resulted from our expansion efforts into new markets and the hiring of additional sales and marketing personnel. The decrease in revenue from air ticketing, bus ticketing, hotel booking, and vacation packages resulted from increased competition in these products.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

The cost of revenue for the first quarter ended June 30, 2017 was $19,886 compared to $68,946 for the prior year quarter. The cost of revenue represents fees charged by our suppliers. The decrease in cost of revenue from the first quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year quarter was primarily driven by the increase in incentives from our aggregators and suppliers as no costs are associated with these incentives. The cost of revenue was also impacted by decreases in the costs associated with our vacation packages as our vacation package revenue declined in the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year quarter. We are continuing to manage our cost of revenue by optimizing pricing from our suppliers and aggregators to increase our profitability and by implementing pricing algorithms and profitability calculations.

Gross profit from revenues for the first quarter ended June 30, 2017 was $88,656 compared to $25,296 for the prior year quarter. The $63,278 increase is driven primarily by a decrease in costs to provide revenue.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses for the first quarter ended June 30, 2017 were $223,800 compared to $125,123 for the prior year quarter. Our operating expenses include our sales and marketing, payroll and general and administrative costs, and the increase in these costs was driven by our increased headcount as we ramp up our operations. Included in our operating expenses is $47,623 in legal and consulting expenses associated with our operating as an Exchange Act reporting company, down from $76,968 in the prior year quarter. This decrease was the result of the prior year quarter including the expenses associated our initial Form S-1 filing with the SEC.

We expect our sales and marketing expenses to increase as we continue to grow the business and hire experienced personnel to support our growing business and operations. Our general and administrative expenses are expected to continue to increase as we incur expenses associated with being an Exchange Act reporting company and applying to have our shares quoted on the OTCQB Market.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2017, we had $983,520 in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $516,707 as of March 31, 2017. The $466,813 increase in cash was driven by sales of common stock of $547,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, which offset our net loss of $222,542. As of June 30, 2017, we had stockholders’ equity of $235,864 compared to a deficit of $88,394 at March 31, 2017, which resulted from sales of common stock offset by an increase in operating losses during the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Our primary source of working capital to date has been through the sale of common stock and the sale and issuance of convertible notes. Our focus remains on deriving net cash flow from operations.

Cash Flows: The following table is a summary of our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

	Three Months Ended
	June 30,			June 30,
	2017			2016
Cash Provided by (Used in):
Operating Activities	$	(81,124	)	$	(89,835	)
Investing Activities		937			2,340
Financing Activities		547,000			0

Operating Activities: Net cash used by operations was $81,124 during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to a cash use from operating activities of $89,835 during the same period in 2016.

The year-over-year decrease in cash used by operations is primarily the result of operating losses that were partially offset by positive changes in net working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities).

Investing Activities: During the three months ended June 30, 2017, there was a cash use of $937 from investing activities compared to a cash use of $2,340 in the same period in 2016. These cash uses represent net changes in property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets.

Financing Activities: During the three months ended June 30, 2017, there was $547,000 of cash provided by financing activities compared to a zero cash use in the same period in 2016. Cash generated during the three months ended June 30, 2017 resulted from the sale of common stock pursuant to a private placement.

We presently do not have a senior credit or revolving credit facility and do not expect to obtain one in the foreseeable future.

We will require additional capital to continue to fund our operations and will look to raise funds through public and private offerings of our securities. We estimate that we will require approximately $1.0 million and $5.0 million in the next 12 and 24 months to support our continued operations.

We took the following steps during fiscal years 2017 and 2018 to manage our liquidity and to avoid default on any material third-party obligations:

· We continue to employ “on demand” procurement processes for travel products that we sell to our customers. We also continue our attempts to collect customer payments promptly based on their payment terms, which has helped us manage our working capital needs.

· We raised $150,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 pursuant to the Company’s issuance of a convertible note. The note has a three-year term and bears interest at the rate of six percent payable at maturity. The principal amount of the note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the noteholder’s option at maturity.

· We issued a convertible note to Takniki Communications, an affiliate owned by Mr. Mandloi, our vice president and director, totaling $695,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2017. This note was issued pursuant to a Software Development Agreement dated September 23, 2016 between Takniki Communications and the Company to finance the upgrade of our Travelcord operating software. The note has a three-year term and bears interest at the rate of ten percent payable at maturity. The principal amount of this note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the noteholder’s option at maturity.

· We sold $460,000 of the Company’s common stock during the third quarter of fiscal 2017 and another $190,000 during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.

· We sold $547,000 of the Company’s common stock during the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and another $551,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 2018.

· The Company is working with a market maker to apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTCQB Market; however, there can be no assurance that our application for quotation will be approved.

There are no assurances that these steps will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that we will be able to obtain sufficient financing necessary to support our working capital requirements. We can also give no assurance that additional capital financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to us. If adequate working capital is not available, we may not be able to continue our operations or execute our business plan.

OPERATING METRICS

In evaluating our business, we use operating metrics, including gross bookings and revenue margin. Gross bookings is a measure of total dollar volume of transactions that we process. This metric is an operating metric used by management, the investor community, and analysts who follow the travel industry to measure our market share and to measure our scale and growth. We calculate revenue margin as revenue as a percentage of gross bookings.

	Quarter Ended June 30,
	2017	2016

Gross Bookings¹	$8,903,079	$1,252,995

Revenue Margin²	1.2%	7.5%

¹Gross bookings represent the total retail value of transactions booked through us, generally including taxes, fees and other charges, and are generally reduced for cancellations and refunds.

²Revenue margin is defined as revenue as a percentage of gross bookings

The increase in gross bookings is driven primarily by increases in air ticketing, rail ticketing, and vacation packages while revenue margin declined quarter over quarter due to price pressure on air ticketing and low margin rail ticketing outpacing higher margin vacation and hotel package offerings.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of June 30, 2017, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 15d-15(e)) are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation of TripBorn’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2017, have concluded that TripBorn’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of that date.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As a newly public company, we have not yet been required to provide a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

None.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Indian government’s implementation of a new indirect tax regime may adversely affect our business and financial performance.

The Government of India has rolled out a comprehensive national goods and services tax, or GST, law that combines taxes and levies by the Central and State Governments into a unified tax structure with an effective date of July 1, 2017. The implementation of GST has significant impact on overall tax computation and compliance. We have implemented necessary changes to our business processes, accounting and IT systems in compliance with GST law. However, some of our suppliers are still in process of making necessary changes to their pricing strategies, product designs and IT systems, which may pose additional challenges to us in the near term. We will also likely incur additional tax compliance costs under the new tax law.
