The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to buy or solicitation of an offer to sell any securities.

On August 31, 2011, ORB Automotive Corporation (the “Company”) entered into one or more Securities Purchase Agreements with a number of accredited investors (each an “Investor” and, collectively, the “Investors”) in connection with the second tranche of a private placement transaction pursuant to which the Company issued 287,041 shares of ordinary stock, par value $0.000384 per share (the “Ordinary Stock”), of the Company (the “Shares”) and warrants to purchase thirty percent (30%) of one (1) share of the Ordinary Stock (the “Warrants”).  The aggregate purchase price for the Shares and Warrants was $335,838.  The Company paid no underwriting discounts or commissions in connection with the transaction.  The Warrants are immediately exercisable, expire on the five year anniversary of their issuance and entitle their holders to purchase up to 86,112 ordinary shares at an initial exercise price of $1.47 per share, subject to adjustment.

The Shares and the Warrants were issued to accredited investors in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as well as Section 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the Commission thereunder.
