Re: CTRL Group Limited
Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement
on Form F-1
Filed June 4, 2024
File No. 333-277949
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, CTRL
Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands holding company (the “Company”), we are responding to the comments of
the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
contained in the letter dated June 12, 2024 (the “Comment Letter”), relating to the above referenced Registration
Statement on Form F-1, as amended (the “Registration Statement”). Concurrently with the submission of this letter,
the Company is filing Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement (“Amendment No. 3”).
Set forth below are the Company’s
responses to the Staff’s comments. The Staff’s comments are repeated below in bold and are followed by the Company’s
responses. Page references in the text of this response letter correspond to the page numbers of Amendment No. 2. In addition to addressing
the comments raised by the Staff in its letter, the Company has revised the Registration Statement to update other disclosures.
Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed June
4, 2024
General
1. We note your response to prior comment 2 that “[t]he Company’s listing on Nasdaq may have
certain requirements related to the registration of securities for resale, but the decision to register the offering is primarily driven
by regulatory compliance . . . .” Please elaborate upon the certain requirements related to your contemplated registration of securities
for resale, as well as the related “regulatory compliance” reasons that are driving the decision to register the resale offering
at this time. In this regard, we further note your response that “[t]he resale offering is not being registered at this time solely
to satisfy any Nasdaq listing requirements” (emphasis added). Please clarify and elaborate here, as your response indicates that
the resale offering is at least in-part being registered at this time to satisfy such requirements.
Response: The Company
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and provides these additional clarifications. As previously stated, at the time Mr.
Shum Tsz Cheung (“Mr. Shum”) sold the 1,750,000 resale shares (the “Shares”) to the Selling Shareholders there
was an understanding that the Shares would be registered at some future time, when it was practicable. No specific timeline was agreed
to for such registration, and the Selling Shareholders understood that they would need to hold the Shares for an indeterminate period
of time. After careful consideration, the Company determined to register the Shares at this time to satisfy these registration requirements,
while at the same time avoiding the cost and expense of filing an additional resale registration statement to register the Shares following
the initial public offering. To that end, the Company’s reference to regulatory compliance relates to the applicable regulations
related to the Company’s proper registration of the Shares for resale on behalf of the Selling Shareholders. Under the circumstances,
the Shares will also be used in the calculation of publicly held shares and market value of publicly held shares for the purpose of satisfying
Nasdaq’s initial listing requirements under Rule 5505(b)(1)(B).
2. We further note that, in your response to our comment asking why the resale offering is being registered
at this time, you state that “[t]here was a mutual understanding between Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung and the Selling Shareholders that the
Shares would be registered to provide greater flexibility for the Selling Shareholders to exit following the Company’s initial public
offering.” Additionally, we note your disclosure on page 6 that such private sales occurred “[o]n February 27, 2024, following
the completion of the Forward Stock- Split” that you separately note was “in anticipation of and preparation for this initial
public offering.” Given the timing of the transactions and the “mutual understanding” between the parties, please reconcile
with your response that “the Selling Shareholders acquired the Shares for investment purposes and not for the purpose of resale.”
In addition, please tell us how your
controlling owner, Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung, and the Selling Shareholders determined the number of shares to be sold in the February 27, 2024
transaction relative to the number of shares to be offered in the primary offering. In this regard, we note that you are offering 2,000,000
shares in the underwritten offering and 1,750,000 in the resale offering.
Response: The Company
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and further asserts its belief that the Selling Shareholders acquired the shares for
investment purposes and not for the purpose of resale. As previously stated, Mr. Shum determined to sell the Shares to the Selling Shareholders
to raise money for other personal investment opportunities and business purposes. At the time of the sales, there was an understanding
that the Shares would be registered at some future time, when it was practicable. No specific timeline was agreed to for such registration,
and the Selling Shareholders understood that they would need to hold the Shares for an indeterminate period of time. After careful consideration,
the Company determined to register the Shares at this time to satisfy these registration requirements, while at the same time avoiding
the cost and expense of filing an additional resale registration statement to register the Shares following the initial public offering.
The Company believes that the Selling
Shareholders do not intend to sell the Shares in the immediate future. This belief is based on the fact that the Selling Shareholders
were willing to enter into voluntary lock-up agreements to restrict the resale of the Shares. However, after Nasdaq advised that securities
subject to resale restrictions for any reason are excluded from the calculation of publicly held shares and market value of publicly
held shares, the determination was made not put any restriction on the resale of the Shares.
The decision to sell 1,750,000 Shares
by Mr. Shum was based on his personal investment needs. The number of shares acquired by the Selling Shareholders was influenced by several
factors, including:
(i) the number of shares offered by
Mr. Shum,
(ii) the risk and reward associated
with investing in the Company,
(iii) the available funds of the Selling
Shareholders, and
(iv) other investment opportunities
available to the Selling Shareholders.
The 1,750,000 Shares in the resale offering
bear no specific relation to the 2,000,000 shares being offered in the underwritten offering, except that they will be used in the calculation
of publicly held shares and market value of publicly held shares for the purpose of satisfying Nasdaq’s initial listing requirements
under Rule 5505(b)(1)(B).
Having established that (i) the sales
of the Shares by Mr. Shum to the Selling Shareholders were made in arm’s-length transactions, (ii) the Selling Shareholders acquired
the Shares for investment purposes and not for the purpose of resale, (iii) there is no arrangement between any of the Selling Shareholders
and the Company to sell the Shares and the Company will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the Shares by any of the Selling
Shareholders, (iv) none of the Selling Shareholders is an affiliate of the Company or Mr. Shum, and (v) the Selling Shareholders are
not in the business of underwriting securities, the Company believes the resale portion of the offering should not be deemed an indirect
primary being conducted by or on behalf of the Company.
3. We note your response to prior comment 3 and reissue the comment, as you continue to disclose that,
“[s]ince there is currently no public market established for our securities, the Selling Shareholders will sell at a price between
US$4.00 and US$5.00 per Ordinary Share, the price at which we sell shares in our public offering pursuant to the registration statement
of which this prospectus is a part.” On your resale prospectus cover page, revise to reconcile with your response and subsequent
disclosure stating that the Selling Shareholders will sell at prevailing market prices or in negotiated transactions or a combination
of such methods. In this regard, your disclosure continues to be inconsistent. Additionally, while we note your response that you included
a placeholder for the initial public offering price of your ordinary shares and the most recent trading price of your ordinary shares
on Nasdaq, it does not appear that you made such revisions. Please revise accordingly.
Response: The Company acknowledges
the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure in Amendment No. 3 to consistently reflect that sales by the Selling Shareholders
will not occur until after the completion of the initial public offering and that such sales will occur at prevailing market prices or
in negotiated transactions. Further, we have included a placeholder for the initial public offering price of our ordinary shares and the
most recent trading price of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq on page Alt-1 of Amendment No. 3.
We thank the Staff for its
review of the foregoing and believe Amendment No. 3 and the responses herein address the Staff’s comments. If we can provide any
further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned.
Sincerely yours,
THE CRONE LAW GROUP P.C.

selling shareholders were selected to participate in this resale offering, and (vi) why you and the underwriter believe the you will be
able to successfully place the securities to be sold in the initial public offering and facilitate the creation of a public market in
your securities, despite the availability of the shares that the selling shareholders could attempt to offer and sell into such market
once trading commences, all with a view to understanding whether the resale portion of the offering should be deemed an indirect primary
being conducted by or on behalf of the issuer. Refer to Question 612.09 of the Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations.
Response: The Company acknowledges
the Staff’s comment and, after careful analysis, does not believe that the resale portion of the offering should be deemed an indirect
primary offering being conducted by or on behalf of the issuer. In arriving at this conclusion, the Company has analyzed the six enumerated
factors contained in Question 612.09 of the Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations (“C&DI.612.09”),
as follows:
Background
On February 27, 2024, Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung
sold an aggregate of 1,750,000 of the Company’s Ordinary Shares (the “Shares”) to Ace Mind Group Limited,
Mr. Chui Bing Sun, Mr. Ma Ka Wing, and Mr. Yeung Kwun Wai Waiman (each, a “Selling Shareholder” and, collectively,
the “Selling Shareholders”) in arm’s-length transactions. Ace Mind Group Limited, Mr. Chui Bing Sun and
Mr. Ma Ka Wing each purchased 500,000 of the Shares, and Mr. Yeung Kwun Wai Waiman purchased 250,000 of the Shares. The Shares were purchased
by the Selling Shareholders at a purchase price of US$1.00 per share, for total consideration of US$1,750,000 paid to Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung.
Factor 1: How Long the Selling Shareholders
Have Held the Shares
Each of the Selling Shareholders has
held their Shares since purchased on February 27, 2024. Since that time, the Selling Shareholders have not sold or otherwise disposed
of any of the Shares. The holding period for the Shares establishes that the Selling Shareholders acquired the Shares for investment purposes
and not for the purpose of resale. The actions of the Selling Shareholders do not demonstrate an intent to distribute the Shares on behalf
of the Company, or that the Selling Shareholders are acting as underwriters.
Factor 2: Circumstances under which
the Selling Shareholders Acquired the Shares
As mentioned above, on February 27, 2024,
Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung sold the Shares to the Selling Shareholders in arm’s-length transactions, for total consideration of US$1,750,000.
Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung sold the Shares to the Selling Shareholders to raise money for other personal investment opportunities and business
purposes.
2
None of the Selling Shareholders have
entered into an underwriting relationship or arrangement with the Company and will not receive any commission or other payment from the
Company in connection with the resale of the Shares, if any. In addition, the Company will not receive any proceeds from the resale of
the Shares, if any, by the Selling Shareholders. The Company believes these circumstances are distinct from those involving a primary
offering by or on behalf of the Company.
Furthermore, Rule 100 of Regulation M
defines a “distribution” as “an offering of securities, whether or not subject to registration under the Securities
Act, that is distinguished from ordinary trading transactions by the magnitude of the offering and the presence of special
selling efforts and selling methods.” The Company is not aware of any evidence that would suggest that any such special selling
efforts or selling methods, such as investor presentations or road shows, by or on behalf of the Selling Shareholders that have or are
intended to take place if the Registration Statement is declared effective.
Factor 3: The Selling Shareholders’
Relationship to the Company
The Company does not have a relationship
with any of the Selling Shareholders, and none of the Selling Shareholders are an affiliate of the Company. Further, the Company does
not have an underwriting relationship with the Selling Shareholders or any contractual, legal, or other relationship that would control
the timing, nature or amount of resales of the Shares following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or even whether any such
Shares are resold at all under the Registration Statement. To the Company’s knowledge, at no time has any of the Selling Shareholders
been affiliated with or acted as a securities broker-dealer or representative thereof.
The Company does not believe that the
registration rights that the Company granted to the Selling Shareholders are indicative of any desire of the Selling Shareholders to sell
or distribute the resale shares on behalf of the Company. The Company did not grant the registration rights for purpose of conducting
an indirect primary offering. At the time Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung sold the Shares to the Selling Shareholders, there was a mutual understanding
between Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung and the Selling Shareholders that the Shares would be registered to provide greater flexibility for the Selling
Shareholders to exit following the Company’s initial public offering. To the extent that the Selling Shareholders sell the any of
the Shares, the Selling Shareholders will retain all proceeds from such sales and the Company will not receive any of the proceeds from
the resales.
Factor 4: Amount of Shares Involved
The total number of Shares registered
for resale by the Selling Shareholders is 1,750,000, representing 13.46% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares as of the
date hereof. None of the Selling Shareholders individually holds or is seeking to register more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the
Company. To the Company’s knowledge, there is no relationship between any of the Selling Shareholders, or any arrangement or agreement
between the Selling Shareholders with respect to the resale of the Shares, and the Selling Shareholders are not acting as a group.
3
Factor 5: Whether the Selling Shareholders
are in the Business of Underwriting Securities
To the Company’s knowledge, the
Selling Shareholders are not, nor have they ever been, in the business of underwriting securities.
Factor 6: Whether under All the Circumstances
it Appears that the Selling Shareholders are Acting as a Conduit for the Company
The Company respectfully submits that
the circumstances of the resale offering do not demonstrate that the Selling Shareholders are selling the Shares on behalf of the Company.
The Company will receive no portion of the proceeds from any resales of the Shares. No Selling Shareholder acquired the Shares under circumstances
that would indicate that it was receiving compensation from the Company in connection with the resale of the Shares, or that the Company
has any financial interest in the resale of the Shares. Additionally, there is no evidence of special selling efforts or selling methods
that would suggest a view to “distribution.” Finally, to the Company’s knowledge, the Selling Shareholders are not in
the business of underwriting securities. In light of the foregoing, the Company respectfully advises the Staff that it does not believe
the Selling Shareholders are acting as underwriters on behalf of, or as a conduit for, the Company.
Now that the Company has provided its
analysis of the six enumerated factors contained in C&DI.612.09, the Company will respond to the specific questions in the Staff’s
comment:
(i) Why your controlling shareholder determined to sell
shares in February, the relationship of the shareholders to your controlling shareholder and how the price was determined.
Prior to selling the Shares to
the Selling Shareholders, Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung held 6,630,000 of the Company’s Ordinary Shares (post-split), representing 51% of
the Company’s total outstanding Shares. He determined to sell the Shares to the Selling Shareholders in February to raise money
for other personal investment opportunities and business purposes..
Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung’s relationships
with the Selling Shareholders are as follows:
Ace Mind Group Limited,
a limited liability company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in 2013, is an investment holding company wholly owned by Mr. Tang
Ho Wai (Howard). Ace Mind Group Limited does not conduct any business other than as a holding company. Mr. Tang Ho Wai (Howard) is a merchant
engaged in the equity and property investment and money lending business. Mr. Tang Ho Wai (Howard) and Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung are personal
friends.
Mr. Chui Bing Sun, an experienced
equity investor, and Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung are personal friends and have had previous business dealings.
Mr. Ma Ka Wing, an experienced
equity investor, and Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung are personal friends and business partners.
Mr. Yeung Kwun Wai Waiman,
an experienced equity investor, and Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung, are personal friends and business partners.
4
The per share purchase price was negotiated
with the Selling Shareholders in arms-length transactions. In each instance, the parties agreed that US$1.00 per share was fair and reasonable,
taking into consideration the Company’s net asset value with a premium.
(ii) Why the resale offering is being registered at this time
There was a mutual understanding between
Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung and the Selling Shareholders that the Shares would be registered to provide greater flexibility for the Selling Shareholders
to exit following the Company’s initial public offering. The Shares are being registered at this time because the lead underwriter
of the Company’s initial public offering did not require lock-ups for shareholders owning 5% or more of the Company. Additionally,
no lock-up terms were negotiated between the Company and the Selling Shareholders before the sales of the Shares from Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung
to the Selling Shareholders occurred. Registering the Shares at this time provides greater flexibility for the resale shareholders to
exit upon our initial public offering.
(iii) Whether the resale offering is being registered at this time to satisfy
any Nasdaq listing requirements
The resale offering is not being registered
at this time solely to satisfy any Nasdaq listing requirements. The purpose of the registration is to facilitate the selling of the Shares
by the Selling Shareholders in accordance with applicable securities regulations. The Company’s listing on Nasdaq may have certain requirements
related to the registration of securities for resale, but the decision to register the offering is primarily driven by regulatory compliance
and providing liquidity for the Selling Shareholders.
(iv) How you determined the number of ordinary shares being registered in connection
with the resale offering
The Company plans to register all the
Shares held by the Selling Shareholders which they purchased from Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung. There was a mutual understanding between Mr. Shum
Tsz Cheung and the Selling Shareholders that the Shares would be registered to provide greater flexibility for the Selling Shareholders
to exit following the Company’s initial public offering
(v) How the selling shareholders were selected to participate in this resale
offering
As previously mentioned, there was a
mutual understanding between Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung and the Selling Shareholders that the Shares would be registered to provide greater flexibility
for the Selling Shareholders to exit following the Company’s initial public offering. The Selling Shareholders were selected to
participate in this resale offering because (i) the lead underwriter of our initial public offering did not require lock-ups for shareholders
owning 5% or more of the Company, and no lock-up terms were negotiated between the Company and the Selling Shareholders before the sales
of the Shares from Mr. Shum Tsz Cheung to the Selling Shareholders occurred, (ii) none of the Selling Shareholders are an affiliate of
the Company, and (iii) the number of Shares held by each Selling Shareholder is less than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company,
which the company believes is less likely to cause fluctuations in the market price of its Ordinary Shares following the initial public
offering.
5
(vi) Why you and the underwriter believe the you will be able to successfully
place the securities to be sold in the initial public offering and facilitate the creation of a public market in your securities, despite
the availability of the shares that the selling shareholders could attempt to offer and sell into such market once trading commences,
all with a view to understanding whether the resale portion of the offering should be deemed an indirect primary being conducted by or
on behalf of the issuer. Refer to Question 612.09 of the Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations
The Company respectfully advises
the Staff that potential investors of the initial public offering are aware of the resale as disclosed in the Registration Statement,
of which the resale prospectus is a part. The lead underwriter in our initial public offering, Revere Securities LLC (“Revere”),
has received the expressed interest and demand for approximately 2,000,000 of the Company’s Ordinary Shares at a price between $4.00
and $5.00 per Ordinary

2.We note your disclosure that you are a holding company incorporated in the British Virgin
Islands with no material operations of your own and that you conduct your operations by

paragraph to also clearly state that you are not a Chinese operating company.
3.We note your disclosure in the ninth paragraph that "[t]he Chinese government may
exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may
intervene in or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material
change in our operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares." Please revise to
discuss the legal and operational risks associated with being based in or having a majority
of your operations in Hong Kong. Your disclosure should make clear whether these risks
could result in a material change in your operations and/or the value of the securities you
are registering for sale or could significantly limit or completely hinder your ability to
offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to
significantly decline or be worthless.
4.We note your disclosure in the ninth paragraph that the laws of mainland China does not
materially impact your business but that you "still face risks associated with regulatory
approvals, filings or other requirements on offshore offerings, anti-monopoly regulatory
actions, and oversight on cybersecurity and data privacy." Please revise here to address
how recent statements and regulatory actions by China’s government, such as those
related to data security or anti-monopoly concerns, have or may impact the company’s
ability to conduct its business, accept foreign investments, or list on a U.S. or other
foreign exchange. Additionally, revise your discussion about the Holding Foreign
Companies Accountable Act and the PCAOB to disclose the location of your auditor’s
headquarters, as you do on page 21, and whether and how the Holding Foreign Companies
Accountable Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, and related
regulations will affect your company. Your prospectus summary should address, but not
necessarily be limited to, the risks highlighted on the prospectus cover page.

to its shareholders and about approved and declared dividends by CTRL Media to its
shareholders on March 18, 2022 and 2021. Please revise to state whether any transfers,

subsidiaries, or to investors, and quantify the amounts where applicable. If no transfers

or for other use outside of Hong Kong due to interventions in or the imposition of
restrictions and limitations on the ability of you or your subsidiaries by the PRC
government to transfer cash or assets. On the cover page, provide cross references to each
of these other discussions in the prospectus summary, summary risk factors and risk
factors sections.

6.We note your disclosure that "[n]either CTRL Group or its subsidiaries has any dividend
payout policy, and each entity needs to comply with applicable law or regulations with
respect to transfer of funds, dividends and distributions with other entities." To the extent

your subsidiaries and investors, summarize the policies on your cover page and in the
prospectus summary, and disclose the source of such policies (e.g., whether they are
contractual in nature, pursuant to regulations, etc.); alternatively, state on the cover page
and in the prospectus summary that you have no such cash management policies that
dictate how funds are transferred. Provide a cross-reference on the cover page to the
discussion of this issue in the prospectus summary.
7.Please revise your disclosure in the seventh paragraph and throughout the document that
"[n]one of [y]our business, operation or subsidiary is based in mainland China" to also

from the PRC and your advertising market is in Hong Kong, as you do on page 10
to provide additional context to investors.

by the market on which you intend to list your ordinary shares and, if so, whether you
intend to rely on any exemptions as a controlled company. In this regard, we note your

influence over our company and their interests may not be aligned with the interests of our

incur material costs to ensure compliance, be subject to fines, experience devaluation of
