Entity notesCEO corrected 2026-08-13. The row previously read "Nader Azimi", carried from Research/Registry/company_registry_master.csv where it is sourced to the company LinkedIn page ("Co-Founder & CEO"), quality_grade B, verification_tier reported. The corporate registry record names سید فضل عظیمی (Seyed Fazl Azimi) as managing director from 2025-04-30, corroborated twice on the same record (officer card and dated board table), and the chairman is سید سهیل عظیمی (Seyed Soheil Azimi). Registry-grade supersedes a self-published profile for the MD role. Nader Azimi is NOT deleted as a person: he may well be a co-founder who no longer holds the MD seat, and the founder claim needs its own check before it is either published or dropped. Registration date 16 May 2018 and the private joint-stock form added from the same registry record.

Registered capital is the share capital recorded in the official gazette. Increases are real corporate events, but they are commonly funded from retained earnings or converted receivables and are also driven by inflation and regulatory minimums. It is not a valuation, and Tehran Index does not present it as one.
