For the Staff’s convenience, we have repeated below each of the Staff’s comments in bold and have followed such comment with the Company’s response. All page references in the responses set forth below refer to page numbers in Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement (“Amendment No. 2”).

2. Please explain in further detail how you calculated the Zoomcar equivalent pro forma per share data as we are unable to calculate these amounts based on the Exchange Ratio of .0464 disclosed in footnote (1) to the table.
