File No. 333-283248
Dear Mr. Giugliano, Ms. Li, Ms. Reed and Ms. Beech:
This letter is in response to your letter of March
6, 2025, in which you provided comments to Amendment No. 4 to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 of Delixy Holdings Limited (the "Company")
filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 20, 2025 ("Form F-1/A4"). We set forth below in bold the
comments in your letter relating to Form F-1/A4 followed by our responses to the comments. Concurrently with the submission of this letter,
we hereby transmit, via EDGAR, Amendment No. 5 to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 ("Form F-1/A5") for filing with the
Commission, which has been revised to reflect the Staff's comments.
Amendment No. 4 to Registration Statement on
Form F-1 filed February 20, 2025
Risk Factors
Risks Related to Our Securities and This Offering
The sale or availability for sale of substantial
amounts of our Ordinary Shares..., page 21
1. We note that you have increased the size of the resale offering compared to the IPO and removed lock-up
provisions applicable to the resale shares, which you previously characterized as "protecting and prioritizing the interests of public
shareholders subscribing to the IPO...in order to give public shareholders subscribing to the IPO the opportunity to sell their shares
in priority to those of the Resale Shareholders." Revise this risk factor to highlight, if true, that the resale shares will not
be subject to any form of lock-up or leak-out restrictions, that the resale offering outsizes the IPO, and that the resale shareholders
may "be willing to accept a lower sales price" because of the discounted value(s) at which they acquired the shares.
RESPONSE : We note the Staff's comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that we have amended the disclosure in this section to state that the Ordinary
Shares being registered for sale in the Resale Prospectus will not be subject to any lock-up or leak-out restrictions, and the aggregate
number of Ordinary Shares being registered for resale exceeds the number of Ordinary Shares being offered in this Offering. As a result,
a significant portion of our outstanding shares may become available for immediate resale following the Offering, which could increase
the supply of our Ordinary Shares in the market and negatively impact the market price of our Ordinary Shares. Given that the Resale Shareholders
acquired their Ordinary Shares at a discount to the public offering price, they may also, in selling their Ordinary Shares, be willing
to accept a lower sales price than the price investors pay in this offering.
Resale Shareholders, page Alt-2
2. Please enhance your disclosure regarding Dragon Circle to describe the circumstances under which it acquired
its resale shares, similar to what is provided with respect to the other resale shareholders. For each resale shareholder, disclose the
discounted value at which it received its shares. Additionally, your statement that "[n]either Novel Majestic nor the persons who
have control over it has had, within the past three years, any material relationship with the Company..." appears inconsistent with
the description at page 98 of services provided to the company by Tran Tieu Cam since 2018. Please revise to provide this background information
in the resale prospectus as well.
RESPONSE : We note the Staff's comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that we have revised our disclosure regarding Dragon Circle and Novel Majestic to
provide the relevant background information in this section. We have also revised the statement regarding Novel Majestic to state that
except as disclosed in the relevant section, neither Novel Majestic nor the persons who have control over it has had, within the past
three years, any material relationship with the Company or any of its predecessors or affiliates.
Exhibit Index, page II-4
3. Please file a revised legal opinion that reflects the change in the size of the resale offering.
RESPONSE : We note the Staff's comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that we have filed a revise legal opinion in exhibit 5.1 to reflect the change in
the size of the resale offering.
General
4. Please explain to us why you have elected to increase the size of the resale offering compared to the
IPO and remove lock-up restrictions from the resale shares, and address whether meeting Nasdaq initial listing standards is a contributing
factor. If so, enhance your risk factor disclosure to acknowledge as much and address the potential impact that this may have on your
listing status moving forward. Include additional detail regarding the risks of delisting if you are unable to maintain the continued
listing requirements of Nasdaq.
RESPONSE : We note the Staff's comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that the decision to increase the size of the resale offering and remove lock-up
restrictions was made to provide the Resale Shareholders, who have held their shares for more than one year, with the ability to resell
their shares immediately following the Offering if they elect to do so. Additionally, our lead underwriter has expressed comfort with
both the removal of the lock-up restrictions and the increase in resale shares given the Company's strong financial position and
potential growth. In this regard, to ensure transparency for potential investors, we have also enhanced our risk factor disclosure to
highlight the risks surrounding the resale of a large number of shares and the lack of lock-up restrictions on these resale shares.
To clarify, meeting Nasdaq's initial listing
standards is not a contributing factor to our decision because the Company already meets the standard under the net income criteria, with
net profits exceeding US$750,000, and the offering size exceeding US$5,000,000 (without taking into account the resale offering). As such,
we believe there is no impact on our Nasdaq listing status in relation to our ability to meet Nasdaq's initial listing standards.
With regards to the risks of delisting if we are unable to maintain the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, we believe we have adequately
disclosed this risk at page 26 of Form F-1/A5, under the risk factor " If we fail to meet applicable listing requirements, Nasdaq
Capital Market may delist our Shares from trading, in which case the liquidity and market price of our Shares could decline ".
We hope this response has addressed all of the
Staff's concerns relating to the comment letter. Should you have additional questions regarding the information contained herein,
please contact the Company's securities counsel William S. Rosenstadt, Esq. or Mengyi "Jason" Ye, Esq. of Ortoli Rosenstadt

This letter is in response to your letter of November
27, 2024, in which you provided comments to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 of Delixy Holdings Limited (the “Company”)
filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2024 (“Form F-1”). We set forth below in bold the comments
in your letter relating to Form F-1 followed by our responses to the comments. Concurrently with the submission of this letter, we hereby
transmit, via EDGAR, an amended Registration Statement on Form F-1 (“Form F-1/A”) for filing with the Commission, which has
been revised to reflect the Staff’s comments.

You disclose that as of September 30, 2024 there were 15 million Ordinary Shares outstanding on an actual basis. Please reconcile this amount to the 1 million Ordinary Shares outstanding disclosed in your balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 on page F-28. Please also address similar discrepancies regarding outstanding shares on pages 7, 32, 96, 97 and 101.
RESPONSE: We note the Staff’s comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that following the forward stock split effected by the Company on November 29, 2024,
there are 15 million Ordinary Shares outstanding on an actual basis. We have revised our disclosures on pages 33, 34, 36, 37, 59, F-3,

We note your disclosure that revenues from trading in crude oil were 50.1% of total trading revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease from 97.4% of total trading revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Please explain whether this decline in the portion of revenues from crude oil trading constitutes a known trend within your business and, if so, identify any anticipated material impacts to your results of operations.
RESPONSE: We note the Staff’s comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that we have revised our disclosure at pages 41 and 75 to further clarify that the
decline in crude oil’s proportion of our trading revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by an increase
in sales of our oil-based products, in particular, straight run fuel oil. Our customers select their feedstocks based on crack margins,
and there was an increase in demand for straight run fuel oil due to its profitability and utility as a refinery feedstock in the current
market. We consider this change in revenue composition to be a reflection of current market demands and customer preferences rather than
a known or sustained trend within our business. Our business model is designed to adapt to such market fluctuations, and we optimize our
operations to suit current customer needs and market conditions. Accordingly, we do not anticipate any material impacts on our results
of operations arising from the change in revenue composition.
Results of Operations
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six Months Period Ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, page 41

Please revise your revenue discussion to provide quantified explanations for the change in revenue between the two reporting periods. In doing so, please describe and quantify the extent to which such change is attributable to changes in prices or to changes in the volume of the products being sold. Refer to Item 303(b)(2) of Regulation S-K.
RESPONSE: We note the Staff’s comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that we have revised the revenue discussion at page 41 and 44 to explain the change
in revenue between the two reporting periods.
Management
Employment Agreements, page 94
6.
Please revise to eliminate inconsistencies between
the disclosure in this section and the executed employment agreements on file as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3. For example, you state
here that the agreements contain non-compete provisions lasting twelve months after cessation of employment, but Section 2.03 of the agreements
imply a two year post-termination non-compete period. The description of the termination provisions under the agreements also appears
inconsistent with Article III thereof.
RESPONSE: We note the Staff’s comment,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the Staff that we have revised our disclosure at page 95 to align with the terms of the executed
employment agreements on file as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3.

RESPONSE: We note the Staff’s comment,

Please add a risk factor to discuss the geographical concentration of customers and
suppliers upon which you depend, namely within the PRC, and identify related material
risks. In this regard, we note from your response to prior comment 18 that in 2023, 87.2%
of revenues were derived from customers in the PRC, and at page 10 you state that if any
of the "top three customers" who accounted for this 87.2% of your 2023 revenues were to
cease business with you, it could have a "material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition and results of operations." We further note that 57.5% of products 1.
August 14, 2024
Page 2
were sourced from suppliers in the PRC in 2023 and that you "generally procure [oil-
based products] from suppliers in the [PRC]." Address risks specific to working with a
majority of customers and suppliers based in the PRC, including any direct or indirect
impacts of the regulatory environment in China and the legal and operational risks and
uncertainties that China-based entities face. For example, acknowledge that the Chinese
government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of businesses of
entities based in China and could intervene or influence their operations at any time, and
explain whether this could in turn limit these customers' and suppliers' ability to continue
conducting business with you.
We are dependent on our transport providers for the transport of our products, page 11
2.We note your explanation regarding regulations applicable to the transport and storage of
crude oil provided in response to prior comment 9. Please include comparable disclosure

satisfaction of such regulations...by such third-party transport providers."

please clearly state as much, and if so, please provide additional information about the
material terms of such facilities, or tell us why such disclosure is not required. Make
conforming revisions where you discuss using short term loan facilities to extend credit
terms to customers in the prospectus summary.
Regulatory Environment, page 71
5.We note your response to prior comment 10 and reissue. For each regulation discussed,
please also disclose the material effects of the regulation upon your business as required
by Item 4.B.8 of Form 20-F. In this regard, your added statement that these regulations
have "no material effects" is inconsistent with their affirmative identification in this
section as "the main laws and regulations...that we anticipate may materially affect our
operations..." Explain, for example, what you must do to remain in compliance with each
regulation or why you fall into an exemption from the regulation, as you have done for
certain of the regulations in your response letter.

Principal and Selling Shareholders, page 87
6.Please explain why you characterize Tran Tieu Cam as an "Independent Third Party," or
revise the disclosure in this section accordingly. In this regard, we note that Novel
Majestic is identified as a greater than 5% shareholder prior to the initial public offering,
and the definition of "Independent Third Party" at page vii includes any person who "is
not a 5% owner of, does not control and is not controlled by or under common control
with any 5% owner."
7.We note from your response to prior comment 19 that the controlling owners of the
Resale Shareholders and Novel Majestic have served in various consulting and advisory
roles with the company. Please explain your consideration of disclosing such relationships
as "position[s], office[s] or other material relationship[s]...within the past three years with
the company..." here or at page Alt-2, as appropriate, pursuant to Item 9.D of Form 20-F.
In this regard, it appears that certain of Selling/Resale Shareholders are receiving their
shares to be included in the primary and resale offerings as consideration for services they
have provided to the company.
Related Party Transactions, page 89
8.We note your response to prior comment 13 and reissue in part. Please file any related
party agreements required pursuant to Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K as exhibits to
the registration statement, or tell us why it is not required. For example, it appears that the
loan agreement with Mega Origin entered into January 1, 2024 should be filed pursuant to
Item 601(b)(10)(ii)(A).
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow, page F-6
9.We note your response to prior comment 16 in which you assert the interest income
presented under investing activities pertains to interest received from bank fixed deposits,
which are not related to your operations, and are therefore interest income under investing
activities in accordance with ASC 230-10-45-16. We do not agree with your conclusion.
Income from bank deposits, fixed or otherwise, are not investing activities either as
enumerated in ASC 230-10-45-12 or as Investing Activities defined in the FASB
Codification Master Glossary. Please modify your presentation or tell us why you believe
your current presentation is appropriate.
General
Please provide us with additional explanation as to why you are registering the resale
offering at this time, particularly in light of the fact that the Resale Shares will be issued
as part of the Group restructuring, which will be completed in connection with the
primary offering. Your response to prior comment 19 states that the number of resale
shares was determined "by reference to services provided and/or to be provided...and the
number of shares held by the Resale Shareholders," but it remains unclear as a threshold
matter why the resale offering is being registered concurrently with but separate from the
primary offering. Additionally, please provide more detail regarding the number of shares
or percentage ownership of the holding company to be issued to each of the Resale
Shareholders and Novel Majestic. In this regard, we note that the pre-IPO ownership of
Cosmic Magnet and Rosywood Holdings (i.e., 4.90% each) will align with their early 10.

Draft Registration Statement on Form F-1 submitted June 5, 2024
Cover Page
1.Where you discuss the post-offering ownership of Dongjian Xie, please revise to
acknowledge, if true, that Mr. Xie will have the ability to control the outcome of matters
requiring shareholder approval and to discuss "controlled company" listing standard
exemptions and whether you intend to rely upon them. Provide comparable disclosure on
the alternate cover page of the resale prospectus. Additionally, please revise the reference
to "controlling shareholders" on page 5 to reflect that you will have a single controlling
shareholder.

Prospectus Summary
Competitive Strengths, page 1
2.Expand upon the nature of the "short term loan facilities available to the Group" and
clarify whether you have contractual arrangements with respect to any loan facilities. In
this regard, we note that you frame the availability of short term loans as a competitive
strength, but no such facilities are disclosed as current funding sources in the notes to
financial statements or MD&A. Make conforming revisions where you discuss your
competitive strengths in the business disclosure.
Risk Factors
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry, page 9
3.Where appropriate, disclose any material impact of import or export bans resulting from
Russia's invasion of Ukraine on any products or commodities, including energy from
Russia, used in your business. Disclose the current and anticipated impact on your
business, taking into account the availability of materials, cost of materials, costs and risks
associated with transportation in your business, and the impact on margins and on your
customers. In this regard, we note your statement on page 17 that you were not materially
impacted by supply chain disruptions in light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but at page
37 you attribute the decrease in revenues in 2023 to a decrease in international oil prices
"mainly caused by the war between Russia and Ukraine" and at page 59 you state that
crude oil prices are "greatly influenced" by certain geopolitical factors.
4.We note from your risk factor disclosure that you may be adversely impacted by "a
deterioration in general economic conditions" and that volatility in crude oil prices may be
affected by "the level of economic activity in the markets [you] serve." Given your
statement that "the rise of inflation [has] resulted in extreme volatility in the global
economy," please update your risk factor disclosure where appropriate if recent
inflationary pressures have materially impacted your operations. In this regard, identify
the types of inflationary pressures you are facing and how your business has been
affected.
Risks Related to Our Securities and This Offering
As a "controlled company" within the meaning of the Nasdaq Capital Market Rules..., page 21
5.This risk factor states that you "intend to rely on" the controlled company listing rule
exemption that your director nominees need not be selected or recommended solely by
independent directors, but at page 5 you state that you intend to rely on controlled
company exemptions only "if [you] cease to be a foreign private issuer." Please revise
throughout for consistency in your disclosure regarding which listing standard exemptions
you expect to rely upon at the consummation of the offering.
Dividends and Dividend Policy, page 30
6.Although we note your statement that you "may not declare any dividends for the
foreseeable future," it appears that you have a history of paying cash dividends in 2023
and have declared additional cash dividends in 2024. Please indicate whether you
currently expect that comparable cash dividends will continue to be paid in the future and,
if not, the nature of the change in the amount or rate of cash dividend payments.

7.Please revise to provide a description of volatility in the prices of the principal raw
materials in which you trade. Refer to Item 4.B.4 of Form 20-F.
Our Customers and Suppliers, page 65
8.Revise to disclose, as you do in risk factors at pages 9-10, your dependence on a small
number of key suppliers and customers, and state whether you have entered into any long-
term or standing contractual agreements or arrangements with such suppliers. If so,
describe the material terms of such arrangements and file the related agreements as
exhibits to the registration statement, or tell us why you are not required to do so. Refer to
Item 8(a) of Form F-1 and Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K.
Our Business Process, page 65
9.Please provide additional information regarding your agreements and/or arrangements
with shipping, logistics, and other third party service providers, including whether you
have entered into long-term or standing contractual arrangements with any such third
parties. If so, disclose the material terms of such arrangements and file the related
agreements as exhibits to the registration statement, or tell us why you are not required to
do so. Refer to Item 8(a) of Form F-1 and Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-
K. Additionally, we note your discussion at page 11 of "strict regulations" and potential
"significant environmental damage" that may occur in the transportation of crude oil and
that "[you] are not liable for the satisfaction of such regulations and requirements by such
third-party transport providers." Please elaborate on how your arrangements with third
parties shield you from liability in the event of failure to comply with regulations
applicable to the transport and storage of crude oil.
Regulatory Environment, page 70
10.For each regulation discussed, please also disclose the material effects of the regulation
upon your business. Refer to Item 4.B.8 of Form 20-F. Additionally, we note that you
have limited this section to the "material laws and regulations applicable to our operations
in Singapore." To the extent that your operations are materially impacted by the laws and
regulations of other jurisdictions, discuss those and their impacts upon your business as
well. For example, you state on page 59 that, "Oil traders are required to adhere to
environmental standards that encompass emissions, pollution control, and environmental
impact," but no such regulations are discussed in this section.
Principal and Selling Shareholders, page 86
11.Please revise the beneficial ownership table in this section to include all of the
information required by Item 7.A of Form 20-F and clearly indicate which persons and
entities are included because they beneficially own more than 5% of your shares. In this
regard, we note that Novel Majestic is listed under "Named Executive Directors and
Executive Officers" and other major shareholders, such as Mega Origin, are not included
in the table. For any entities included in the table, disclose the natural persons with voting
and/or dispositive control over the shares held by them.
July 2, 2024

Selling Shareholders, page 86
12.Revise to disclose the nature of any position, office, or other material relationship which
any of the Selling Shareholders and/or the persons who have control over the Selling
Shareholders has had within the past three years with the registrant or any of its
predecessors or affiliates. Refer to Item 9.D of Form 20-F. Provide this disclosure with
respect to the Resale Shareholders and/or the persons who have control over the Resale
Shareholders on page Alt-2 of the resale prospectus as well. Additionally, please revise
both here and at page Alt-2 to disclose the natural persons with voting and/or dispositive
control over the shares held by the Selling Shareholders and Resale Shareholders,
respectively.
Related Party Transactions, page 88
13.Please revise to provide all of the information required by Item 7.B.2 of Form 20-F with
respect to each related party loan disclosed in this section. For example, we note that the
interest rate is not provided for certain loans, and there is no disclosure of amounts
outstanding as of the latest practicable date. File any related agreements as exhibits to the
registration statement. Additionally, please elaborate on the sale of property to Wisecome
Oil Pte. Ltd., clarifying why you state that the sale took place on June 28, 2024, how this
is consistent with your statement on page 69 that you "do not own any real property," and
how the sale "rationalize[s] the operations of [y]our Group in anticipation of [y]our
listing." Lastly, explain whether and how the $8,245,000 "dividend payables" on the
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 relates to the equivalent "dividend
loan" due to Mega Origin Holdings Limited disclosed in this section.
Shares Eligible for Future Sale
Resale Prospectus, page 101
14.Your statement that, "Any shares sold by the Resale Shareholders until our Ordinary
Shares are listed or quoted on an established public trading market will take place at the
public offering price of the Offering Shares we are selling in our initial public offering," is
inconsistent with the indication on the resale prospectus alternate cover page that, "No
shares may be sold by the Resale Shareholders until the initial public offering is
completed..." Please clarify whether the Resale Shareholders may sell shares before the
completion of the initial public offering and listing of your shares on Nasdaq, and revise
for consistency accordingly.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, page F-2
15.Please have your auditor revise the opinion on the financial statements paragraph in their
report to identify the financial statements, including consolidated statements of changes in
shareholders’ equity, that have been audited. Refer to PCAOB AS 3101.08(b).
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow, page F-6
16.You present interest income as cash inflows from investing activities and interest paid as
cash outflows for financing activities. Please tell us your consideration of presenting these
transactions as cash flows from operating activities in accordance with ASC 230-10-45-16
and 45-17.

Plan of Distribution, page A-3
17.Please revise to describe in further detail in this section the "lock up/leak out conditions"
applicable to the Resale Shareholders that you reference.
General
18.Explain to us the level of operations that you conduct in the People's Republic of China
(PRC), including the percentage of your revenues derived from customers in the PRC and
percentage of products that you source from suppliers in the PRC. In this regard, your
disclosure indicates that approximately 87.2% of your sales in 2023 were derived from
East Asia and that you have customers, suppliers, and employees in the PRC. We further
note that the crude oil market in China is discussed separately within the Industry
Overview section of the prospectus. Please note that any operations in Hong Kong or
Macau should be addressed in your response as well.
Please provide us with the following information regarding the proposed resale
transaction in order to help us better understand your position that it is appropriately
characterized as a secondary offering, rather than a primary offering in which the Resale
Shareholders are acting as conduits in a distribution to the public and are therefore
underwriters selling on your behalf:
•Please clarify whether and when the shares being offered by the Resale Shareholders
have been issued, as we note that there are placeholders for the date(s) of issuance on
page Alt-2, while page 99 suggests that bracketed numbers of shares were issued to
these entities on May 16, 2024. Please also confirm the length of time that the Selling
Shareholders have held their shares.
•Provide additional detail regarding the background and nature of the transactions by
which the Resale Shareholders and Selling Shareholders came to acquire or will
acquire the shares they beneficially own, including how the price was or will be
determined.
•Clarify whether the lead underwriter for the initial public offering has any role in, or
direct or indirect participation in, facilitating the primary sales of shares to the Selling
Shareholders and Resale Shareholders.
•Disclose how and when the Selling Shareholders and Resale Shareholders were
selected to participate in the primary and resale offerings, respectively.
•Explain the nature of the Selling Shareholders' and Resale Shareholders' businesses.
•Explain how you intend to determine the number of shares to be sold through the
resale offering relative to the primary offering and why you have structured the
offerings to include the Selling Shareholders' shares in the primary offering rather
than the resale offering.
•The defined terms section of the prospectus indicates that the Resale Shareholders are
wholly-owned by "independent third parties," but the discussion of your restructuring
at page F-7 indicates that each of the Resale Shareholders are part of such
restructuring and that it is considered a "merger of entities under common control."
Explain why you characterize the Resale Shareholders as controlled by independent
third parties. 19.
July 2, 2024
Page 6
•Discuss how the lock-up arrangements applicable to the primary and resale offerings
were negotiated, including why the Selling Shareholders are exempt from lock-up
provisions only with respect to their shares being sold in the primary offering and
why the Resale Shareholders are subject to different, shorter lock-up arrangements
that may be waived by the underwriter. Further, Dragon Circle is not defined as a
Selling Shareholder or Resale Shareholder, but page 108 indicates that it will be
subject to a separate 90 day lock-up period. Please explain why that is the case and
confirm whether Dragon Circle is participating in the primary or resale offering.
20.Please provide us with supplemental copies of all written communications, as defined in
Rule 405 under the Securities Act, that you, or anyone authorized to do so on your behalf,
have presented or expect to present to potential investors in reliance on Section 5(d) of the
Securities Act. Please contact the staff member associated with the review of this filing to
discuss how to submit the materials, if any, to us for our review.
Please contact James Giugliano at 202-551-3319 or Suying Li at 202-551-3335 if you
have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related matters. Please
contact Rebekah Reed at 202-551-5332 or Taylor Beech at 202-551-4515 with any other
questions.
