The Augmont Enterprises IPO documents reveal complex family relationships within the promoter group, with the company controlled by the extended Kothari family whose nine named promoters held 92.75% of the company before the IPO. The largest promoter shareholders are Mohinidevi Kothari with 20.06% stake and Kalawati Kothari with 18.12% stake.

Promoter family members with executive roles include Ketan Kothari and Vivek Kothari, son of Prithviraj Saremal Kothari. The company's draft red herring prospectus identifies Rakesh Manekchand Kothari and Prithviraj Saremal Kothari as members of the promoter group, though their involvement in Enforcement Directorate proceedings under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act is not disclosed in the litigation section.
