Prospectus Supplement
(To Prospectus dated February 3, 2025)

CEMTREX, INC.

$4,000,000 of Common Stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants in Lieu Thereof)

Cemtrex, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or ‘our”) is offering and selling up to $4,000,000 in aggregate offering price of shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), or, at the election of a purchaser, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) in lieu of shares of Common Stock, to a single accredited institutional investor in a registered direct offering (this “Offering”). The shares of Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants are being offered pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-283995) (the “Registration Statement”), including the base prospectus included therein, declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 3, 2025, and a prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on January 9, 2026 (together with the base prospectus, the “Prospectus”). The Offering is being made without an underwriter, placement agent, or broker-dealer.

We are not offering any shares of Common Stock or Pre-Funded Warrants to the public. The purchaser has agreed to purchase up to $4,000,000 of securities in this Offering, consisting of (i) shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $2.722 per share, and/or (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants at a purchase price of $2.721 per Pre-Funded Warrant (representing a $0.001 exercise price per underlying share of Common Stock), in such proportions as the purchaser may elect, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The Pre-Funded Warrants will be immediately exercisable and will remain exercisable until exercised in full. The exact number of shares of Common Stock and/or Pre-Funded Warrants to be sold will be determined at closing based on the purchaser’s election, but in no event will the aggregate offering price exceed $4,000,000. Assuming no Pre-Funded Warrants are issued, the Offering would involve the issuance of 1,469,507 shares of Common Stock. If all $4,000,000 is allocated to Pre-Funded Warrants, the Offering would involve Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 1,469,507 shares of Common Stock (subject to the 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation).

The shares of Common Stock and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) are being offered and sold directly to the purchaser without an underwriter or placement agent. The net proceeds to us from this Offering are estimated to be approximately $3,950,000, after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us of approximately $50,000. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include potential future acquisitions.

Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or NASDAQ, under the symbol “CETX.” On January 8, 2026, the closing sale price of our common stock on NASDAQ was $2.90 per share.

As of January 9, 2026, the aggregate market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or the public float, pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 was approximately $60,633,863. This was calculated based on a closing sale price of $7.05 per share on December 8, 2025, multiplied by 8,600,548 shares of our common stock held by non-affiliates as of January 8, 2026. Pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, in no event will we sell securities in a public primary offering with a value exceeding more than one-third of our public float in any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below $75.0 million. Following the sale of shares in this Offering (the current registered direct offering announced January 9, 2026), we will have sold securities with an aggregate market value of approximately $11,437,500 pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 during the 12-month calendar period that ends on and includes the date hereof.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-8 of this prospectus supplement and under similar headings in the accompanying prospectus and in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus supplement. This summary does not contain all the information that you should consider before investing in our Company. You should carefully read the entire prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including all documents incorporated by reference herein. In particular, attention should be directed to our “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and the financial statements and related notes thereto contained herein or otherwise incorporated by reference hereto, before making an investment decision.

Business Overview

Cemtrex was incorporated in 1998 in the state of Delaware and has evolved through strategic acquisitions and internal growth into a leading multi-industry company. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “we”, “our”, “us”, “Company”, “registrant”, “Cemtrex” or “management” refer to Cemtrex, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

On January 8, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of Invocon, Inc. (“Invocon”), a Texas-based aerospace and defense engineering firm specializing in mission-critical instrumentation, wireless sensing systems, telemetry, and flight hardware. Invocon, with nearly four decades of experience, has supported high-profile programs including the Space Shuttle, International Space Station, and various missile defense initiatives. The acquisition establishes a new reporting segment, Aerospace & Defense, anchored by Invocon as a wholly-owned subsidiary. This segment focuses on advanced engineering solutions for aerospace, defense, and space applications, with recent participation in programs such as the Missile Defense Agency’s Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) contract.

The Company’s reporting segments consist of Security, Industrial Services and Aerospace & Defense. Additionally, the Company’s operational structure also reports unallocated corporate expenses.

Security

Cemtrex’s Security segment operates under the brand of its majority owned subsidiary, Vicon Industries, Inc. (“Vicon”), which provides end-to-end security solutions to meet the toughest corporate, industrial, and governmental security challenges. Vicon’s products include browser-based video monitoring systems and analytics-based recognition systems, cameras, servers, and access control systems for every aspect of security and surveillance in industrial and commercial facilities, federal prisons, hospitals, universities, schools, and federal and state government offices. Vicon provides innovative, mission critical security and video surveillance solutions utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) based data algorithms.

Industrial Services

Cemtrex’s Industrial Services segment operates under the brand, Advanced Industrial Services (“AIS”), which offers single-source expertise and services for rigging, millwrighting, in plant maintenance, equipment erection, relocation, and disassembly to diversified customers. AIS installs high precision equipment in a wide variety of industrial markets like automotive, printing & graphics, industrial automation, packaging, and chemicals, among others. AIS is a leading provider of reliability-driven maintenance and contracting solutions for machinery, packaging, printing, chemical, and other manufacturing markets. The focus is on customers seeking to achieve greater asset utilization and reliability to cut costs and increase production from existing assets, including small projects, sustaining capital, turnarounds, maintenance, specialty welding services, and high-quality scaffolding.

Aerospace & Defense

Cemtrex’s Aerospace & Defense segment operates under the brand of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Invocon, which provides advanced instrumentation, wireless sensing, telemetry, and engineering solutions for mission-critical applications in aerospace, defense, and space programs. Invocon’s technologies support satellites, launch vehicles, target missiles, and other extreme-environment platforms, with long-standing relationships across the Missile Defense Agency and leading aerospace and defense prime contractors. The segment focuses on delivering reliable, high-performance systems for government and commercial programs in high-growth areas such as missile defense modernization and resilient space infrastructure.

Cemtrex Corporate

Cemtrex’s Corporate segment is the holding company of our other three segments.

Business Strategy

Our focus is to utilize our resources and capabilities to build brands and businesses in areas where we see unique opportunities to create exceptional value for our customers, shareholders, and employees over the long term. We aim to grow in markets where we see significant long-term opportunities to create an attractive return on shareholder equity. Generally, these markets are high growth markets that are changing due to innovation, new technologies, or other industry shifts taking place. In these markets we seek to build or acquire businesses that have attractive gross margins, strong opportunities for customer retention, and are asset light. We take a long-term approach with our strategies and seek returns over five years or longer time horizons.

We believe our ability to attract and retain new customers comes from our ongoing commitment to understanding our customers’ business performance requirements and our expertise in meeting or exceeding these requirements and enhancing their competitive advantage through cutting edge technology. We work closely with our customers from an operational and senior executive level to achieve a deep understanding of our customers’ goals, challenges, strategies, operations, and products to ultimately provide the best solutions for them.

S-3

We continue to seek and execute additional strategic acquisitions and focus on expanding our products and services as well as entering new markets. We believe that the diversity of our products & services and our ability to deliver full solutions to a variety of end markets provides us with multiple sources of income and growth and a competitive advantage relative to other players in the industry. We constantly look for opportunities to gain new customers and penetrate geographic locations and end markets or acquire new product or service opportunities through acquisitions that are operationally and financially beneficial for the Company.

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company

We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $250 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter, or (2) our annual revenues equaled or exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter.

Going Concern Considerations

The Company has incurred substantial losses of $28,112,368 and $7,229,491 for fiscal years 2025 and 2024, respectively, and has debt obligations over the next fiscal year of $12,101,593 and working capital of $5,184,339, that raise substantial doubt with respect to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

While our working capital and current debt indicate a substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the Company has historically, from time to time, satisfied and may continue to satisfy certain short-term liabilities through the issuance of common stock, thus reducing our cash requirement to meet our operating needs. The Company had $4,974,303 in cash as of September 30, 2025. Additionally, the Company has (i) secured a line of credit for its Vicon brand to fund operations, which as of September 30, 2025, has available capacity of $1,564,179, (ii) continually reevaluate our pricing model on our Vicon brand to improve margins on those products and introducing new innovative products to grow revenues, (iii) raised $12,478,957 in net proceeds through our May 2024 equity financing, raised another $5,657,264 subsequent to the balance sheet date and anticipate an additional $2.4 million when the Series B warrants are exercised.; (iv) satisfied $7,844,000 of notes payable through equity issuances, and (v) raised approximately 1.2 million in net proceeds from our May 2025 equity offering, and $6 million through three subsequent registered direct offerings in December 2025, and (vi) effected a 60:1, 35:1, and 15:1 reverse stock split on our common stock to remain trading on the Nasdaq Capital Markets, and improve our ability to potentially raise capital through equity offerings that we may use to satisfy debt. In the event additional capital is raised through equity offerings and/or debt is satisfied with equity, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

While the Company believes these plans if successful, would be sufficient to meet the capital demands of our current operations for at least the next twelve months, there is no guarantee that we will succeed. Overall, there is no guarantee that cash flow from our existing or future operations and any external capital that we may be able to raise will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs. The Company currently does not have adequate cash or available liquidity/available capacity on our lines of credit to meet our long-term needs and our above plans in the short term may prove to be inadequate to continue as a going concern. Thus, despite our cash on hand, our ability to draw on our credit line, or changes to our pricing models, and other safeguards, we may be unable to meet our obligations as they become due over the next twelve months beyond the issuance date.

Recent Developments

Common Stock Reverse Split

On October 2, 2024, the Company completed a 60:1 reverse stock split on its common stock, on November 26, 2024, The Company completed a 35:1 reverse stock split on its common stock, and on September 29, 2025, the Company completed a 15:1 reverse stock split on its common stock. All share and per share data have been retroactively adjusted for the reverse splits.

May 2024 Equity Financing

On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Aegis Capital Corp., in connection with a firm commitment underwritten public offering (the “Offering”), providing for the issuance of (i) 554,705 units (the “Common Units”), each consisting of one share of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”), a warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.85 per share, which warrant will expire on the two-and-a-half year anniversary of the original issuance date (the “Series A Warrants”), and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.85 per share, which warrant will expire on the five-year anniversary of the original issuance date (the “Series B Warrants”); and (ii) 11,210,000 pre-funded units (the “Pre-funded Units”), each consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock (the “Pre-funded Warrants”), a Series A Warrant and a Series B Warrant. The purchase price of each Unit was $0.85, and the purchase price of each Pre-Funded Unit was $0.849. The Pre-Funded Warrants were immediately exercisable and all of the Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised in full.

In addition, the Company granted the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase additional 1,764,705 shares of common stock and/or Pre-Funded Warrants, representing up to 15% of the number of common stock and Pre-Funded Warrants sold in the Offering, and/or additional 1,764,705 Series A Warrants representing up to 15% of the Series A Warrants sold in the Offering, and/or additional 1,764,705 Series B Warrants representing up to 15% of the Series B Warrants sold in the Offering to cover over-allotments, if any. The Offering closed on May 3, 2024. An aggregate of 11,764,705 Units (which includes 554,705 shares of common stock) and 11,210,000 Pre-Funded Units (which includes 11,210,000 Pre-Funded Warrants) were sold in the Offering. On May 3, 2024, the Underwriter partially exercised its over-allotment option with respect to 1,764,705 Series A Warrants and 1,764,705 Series B Warrants. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company were $10,035,293, before deducting underwriting discounts and other issuance expenses of $995,333 recorded under the caption “General and administrative” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The underwriting discounts and other issuance expenses were expensed since the Series A, Series B, and Pre-Funded Warrants were each determined to be liabilities and recorded at their fair value.

S-4

May 2024 Warrants

The Company evaluated the Series A, Series B, and Prefunded Warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance at ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the Warrants did not meet the definition a liability under ASC 480, and the warrants are precluded from being considered indexed to the entity’s own stock under ASC 815, resulting in the Warrants being classified as a liability. The fair value of the Series A Warrants was determined based on the stock price on issuance of $0.277 multiplied by the total number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series A alternative cashless exercise. Under the alternative cashless exercise, the Holder is entitled to receive three times the normal number of shares issued in a cash exercise. The Series A Holder may only execute the alternative cashless exercise after Stockholder Approval (and received June 17, 2024); at the time of issuance, Stockholder Approval was deemed perfunctory and almost certain to occur, and the most likely settlement option would be through the alternative cashless exercise. In addition, beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Warrants will contain a reset of the exercise price to a price equal to the lesser of (i) the then-current exercise price and (ii) lowest volume weighted average price for the five trading days immediately preceding and immediately following the date we effect a reverse stock split in the future with a proportionate adjustment to the number of shares underlying the Warrants. As such, upon issuance, the total fair value of the Series A Warrants was $11,242,940, which was based on 40,588,230 common shares issuable under the alternative cashless exercise. The measurement of fair value of the Series B Warrants were determined utilizing a Black-Scholes model considering all relevant assumptions current at the date of issuance (i.e., share price of $0.277, exercise price of $0.85, term of five years, volatility of 132%, risk-free rate of 4.5%, and expected dividend rate of 0%). The grant date fair value of these Series B Warrants was estimated to be $2,942,711 on May 3, 2024, and such warrants were classified as liabilities. Due to the nominal exercise price, the fair value of the Prefunded Warrants was based on the intrinsic value of each Warrant on the grant date. The intrinsic value was calculated based on the May 3, 2024, stock price of $0.277 and the strike price of $0.001, resulting in a total fair value of $3,105,170. The total fair value of the Warrants upon issuance was $17,290,821. Given that the gross proceeds received of $10,035,293 was less than the total fair value of the liability classified Warrants, the Company recorded a loss on excess fair value of $7,255,528 at issuance.

May 2025 Equity Offering

On May 28, 2025 the Company, entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Aegis Capital Corp. (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Underwriter, in a firm commitment public offering (the “Offering”), 1,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Firm Shares”), for a public offering price of $1.00 per share. The Company also granted the Underwriter an over-allotment option to purchase up to 187,500 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option Shares,” together with Firm Shares, the “Shares”).

The Company received $1,250,000 in gross proceeds from this Offering, before deducting underwriting discounts and other related offering expenses of $191,050. The Offering closed on May 29, 2025.

On June 2, 2025, the Underwriter fully exercised the option, and on June 3, 2025, the Company closed the offering of the Option Shares to the Underwriter, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $187,500 less applicable underwriter discounts and other offering fees and expenses of $15,000.

Issuance of Note payable

On November 7, 2025, the Company issued a Promissory Note with Streeterville Capital, LLC in the original principal amount of $7,025,000. From November 7, 2025, until December 31, 2025, interest will accrue on the outstanding balance of this Note at a per annum rate of interest equal to the daily Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as quoted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. From January 1, 2026, until this Note is paid in full, interest will accrue at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. After original issuance fees of $25,000, the Company received cash of $7,000,000 for this agreement. If this Note is outstanding on January 1, 2026, a one-time additional interest fee of $1,050,000.00 will automatically be added to the outstanding balance. This Note matures eighteen (18) months from the issuance date with redemptions beginning at six (6) months from the issuance date. The Company intends to use the cash proceeds to complete potential acquisitions.

Share Purchase to Acquire Invocon, Inc.

On November 13, 2025, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Karl F. Kiefer, an individual resident of Texas (the “Seller”), and Invocon, Inc., a Texas-based systems-engineering firm specializing in mission-critical instrumentation, wireless sensing systems, telemetry, and flight hardware for aerospace, defense, and civil structure monitoring applications.

The agreement provided for the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Invocon for a purchase price of $7,060,000 in cash. On January 8, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of Invocon. As a result of the transaction, Invocon became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the full purchase price of $7,060,000 was paid in cash at closing.

Invocon has a nearly 40-year history supplying advanced turnkey solutions to major corporations, government entities, universities, and leading aerospace and defense prime contractors, with technologies deployed in satellites, launch vehicles, the Space Shuttle, the International Space Station, target missiles, and other extreme-environment programs.

Risks Associated with Our Business

Our business is subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before making an investment decision. These risks and others are discussed more fully in the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus immediately following this prospectus summary and in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus. These risks include the following:

	■	Our operations and performance depend significantly on global and regional economic conditions and adverse economic conditions can materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
	■	The report of our independent registered public accounting firm contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
	■	There is no guarantee that cash flow from operations and/or debt and equity financings will provide sufficient capital to meet our expansion goals, working capital needs or fund our operations.
	■	We have a history of losses and may experience losses in the future, which could result in the market price of our common stock declining. For fiscal years 2025 and 2024, we reported net losses of $28,112,368 and $7,229,491, respectively.
	■	We have substantial debt which could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund operations and prevent us from meeting our obligations under outstanding indebtedness.
	■	Our ability to secure and maintain sufficient credit arrangements is key to our continued operations and there is no assurance we will be able to obtain sufficient additional equity or debt financing in the future.
	■	We are substantially dependent upon the success and continued market acceptance of our technology, the absence of which may significantly reduce our sales, profits and cash flow and adversely impact our financial condition.
	■	We have taken a multi-operational approach, and some of our business segments have historically failed to benefit our company to date, and there remains a risk that our remaining segments (including the newly established Aerospace & Defense segment following the January 8, 2026 acquisition of Invocon, Inc.) may not prove to be successful. We may divest or expand into new areas that are outside of our current business activities and those activities may not prove to be successful.
	■	Our future operating results depend in part on continued successful research, development and marketing of new and improved products and services through our Security segment, and there can be no assurance that we will successfully introduce new products and services into the market.
	■	Our future operating results depend in part on the continued successful operation of our Industrial Services segment, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in this business.
	■	Our newly established Aerospace & Defense segment is subject to risks associated with government contracting, including long sales cycles, funding uncertainties, regulatory compliance, and dependence on a limited number of customers and programs.
	■	Our products face intense competitive challenges, including rapid technological changes, and pricing pressure from competitors, which could adversely affect our business.
	■	We could be subject to additional civil penalties or face criminal penalties and sanctions if we violate the terms of settlement with the SEC.
	■	We have grown through acquisitions and are continuously looking to fund other acquisitions; our failure to raise funds for acquisitions may have the effect of slowing down our growth and our use of funds for acquisitions subjects us to acquisition-related risks, including integration challenges, unexpected liabilities, and potential impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets (as demonstrated by our recent acquisition of Invocon, Inc. on January 8, 2026).
	■	The loss of the services of Saagar Govil for any reason would materially and adversely affect our business operations and prospects.
	■	Our management stockholders have significant stockholdings in and influence over our company which could make it impossible for public stockholders to influence the affairs of our company.
	■	Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market could depress the market price of our common stock, exacerbated by our recent 1-for-15 reverse stock split effective September 29, 2025, which reduced outstanding shares but increased dilution potential from existing warrants and convertible debt.
	■	Our securities may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations, which could lead to costly litigation for us and make an investment in us less appealing.
	■	We face ongoing Nasdaq listing compliance risks, including potential delisting if we fail to maintain minimum bid price, stockholders’ equity, or market value requirements. Further non-compliance could result in suspension or removal from Nasdaq, limiting liquidity and investor interest.

S-7

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should carefully consider the risk factors we describe in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and in any related free writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you or in any report incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025, or any Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement after the date of this prospectus supplement. Although we discuss key risks in those risk factor descriptions, additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business. Our subsequent filings with the SEC may contain amended and updated discussions of significant risks. We cannot predict future risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance.

Risks Related to This Offering

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution.

Because the price per share of our common stock being offered is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock, you will suffer substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering. If you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of $1.80 per share in the net tangible book value of the common stock (based on our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2025). Note that this dilution amount is calculated using the shares outstanding as of September 30, 2025 (830,606 shares). Subsequent share issuances in December 2025 (as described in “Recent Developments”) have significantly increased the number of shares outstanding to approximately 8,600,552 as of January 8, 2026. If recalculated using this more recent share count, the dilution per share to investors in this offering would be approximately $2.05 (with a pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering of approximately $0.67).

In addition, we may issue additional securities in the future, including shares of common stock, securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock or substantially similar securities. The issuance of these securities may cause further dilution to our stockholders. The exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of outstanding restricted stock units may also result in further dilution of your investment. See the section entitled “Dilution” below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you would incur if you purchase securities in this offering.

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering and may not use the proceeds effectively.

Because we have not designated the amount of net proceeds from this offering to be used for particular purposes, our management will have broad discretion as to the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of the offering. Our management may use the net proceeds for corporate purposes that may not improve our financial condition or market value.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share in this offering. We may sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is less than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering.

S-8

A substantial number of shares of our common stock could be sold into the public market in the near future, which could depress our stock price.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market could reduce the prevailing market prices for our common stock. If our existing stockholders sell a large number of shares of our common stock, or the public market perceives that existing stockholders might sell shares of common stock, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly. These sales might also make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities at a time and price that we deem appropriate.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $3,950,000, after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us of approximately $50,000.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include potential future acquisitions. As of the date of this prospectus, however, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the completion of this offering. The amounts and timing of actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including the status of our product development efforts, sales and marketing activities, technological advances, amount of cash generated or used by our operations and competition. Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds of this offering.

Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

DIVIDEND POLICY

Our board of directors declared a one-time cash dividend on our common stock in April 2017. The terms of our series 1 preferred stock provide for the payment of semiannual dividends on the last day of March and September in each year, which began in March 2017. No other cash dividends have been declared or paid by us on our stock during either of the two most recent fiscal years or the period through the date of this prospectus. Other than with respect to our series 1 preferred stock, our board of directors declares dividends when, in its discretion, it determines that a dividend payment, as opposed to another use of cash, is in the best interests of the stockholders. Such decisions are based on the facts and circumstances then existing including, without limitation, our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our board of directors deems relevant. As a result, we cannot predict when, or whether, another dividend on our common stock will be declared in the future.

DILUTION

If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share, and the adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering.

Our net tangible book value on September 30, 2025, was approximately $5,009,112, or $6.03 per share. “Net tangible book value” is total assets minus the sum of liabilities and intangible assets. “Net tangible book value per share” is net tangible book value divided by the total number of shares outstanding as of that date.

After giving effect to our sale of 1,469,507 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $2.722 per share, and after deducting offering expenses payable by us of approximately $50,000, our pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30, 2025 would have been $6,959,112, or $4.05 per share. This represents an immediate decrease in net tangible book value of $1.98 per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $1.80 per share to investors participating in this offering. The following table illustrates this dilution per share to investors participating in this offering:

Public offering price per share			$	2.722
Net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2025	$	6.03
Decrease per share attributable to this offering	$	1.98
Pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering	$	4.05
Dilution per share to investors in this offering			$	1.80

S-9

The above discussion and table are based on 830,606 post-split shares of our common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2025. Subsequent to September 30, 2025, we issued additional shares in connection with three registered direct offerings in December 2025 (as described in “Recent Developments” above), which increased our shares outstanding to approximately 8,600,552 as of January 8, 2026. As a result, if recalculated using this more recent share count, the pre-offering net tangible book value per share would be approximately $0.58, leading to a pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering of approximately $0.67 and dilution of approximately $2.05 per share to investors in this offering.

To the extent that any of our outstanding options or warrants are exercised, we grant additional options or other awards under our stock incentive plan or issue additional warrants, or we issue additional shares of common stock in the future, there may be further dilution.

In addition, the amounts in the table above assume no exercise by the purchaser of Pre-Funded Warrants. If Pre-Funded Warrants are issued and exercised, the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering would be approximately $4.05 per share, representing an decrease in net tangible book value per share attributable to this offering of approximately $1.98 and dilution in net tangible book value per share to investors in this offering of approximately $1.80. (Note: If recalculated using the more recent share count noted above, the adjusted pro forma net tangible book value per share would be approximately $0.67, with dilution of approximately $2.05 per share.)

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

In this offering, we are offering up to $4,000,000 in aggregate gross proceeds of shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and/or pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of our common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”).

Common Stock

As of January 8, 2026, there were 8,600,552 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, held of record by approximately 81 stockholders with others in street name.

The holders of outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets or funds legally available for the payment of dividends at such times and in such amounts as the board from time to time may determine. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. There is no cumulative voting of the election of directors then standing for election. The common stock is not entitled to pre-emptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the assets legally available for distribution to stockholders are distributable ratably among the holders of the common stock after payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding payment of other claims of creditors.

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Pre-Funded Warrant.

Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.001 per share of common stock, is immediately exercisable upon issuance, and will remain exercisable until exercised in full. There is no expiration date. The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations, or similar events affecting our common stock.

A holder may not exercise any portion of a Pre-Funded Warrant to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates and any persons acting as a group with the holder or any of its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation upon not less than 61 days’ prior written notice to us, provided the limitation may never exceed 4.99%.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained in other parts of this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus from our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, as described later in the prospectus. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our securities and it is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus, including the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should read the entire prospectus and the information incorporated by reference herein carefully, including the information discussed under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus and our financial statements and related notes that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this prospectus to “Registrant,” “Cemtrex,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Cemtrex, Inc.

This prospectus is part of a registration statement we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) using a “shelf” registration process. Using this process, we may from time to time offer and sell the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we use this prospectus to offer securities, we will file a supplement to this prospectus with the SEC that will describe the specific terms of the offering and the manner in which the securities will be offered, including the specific amounts, prices and terms of the securities offered. The prospectus supplement may also add to, update or change the information contained in this prospectus and, accordingly, to the extent inconsistent, information in this prospectus will be superseded by the information in the prospectus supplement.

You should assume that the information contained in this prospectus or any accompanying prospectus supplement is accurate only as of the date on the front cover of the applicable document.

You should not rely on or assume the accuracy of any representation or warranty in any agreement that we have filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or that we may otherwise publicly file in the future because any such representation or warranty may be subject to exceptions and qualifications contained in separate disclosure schedules, may represent the parties’ risk allocation in the particular transaction, may be qualified by materiality standards that differ from what may be viewed as material for securities law purposes or may no longer continue to be true as of any given date.

Corporate and Other Information

We own or have rights to various trademarks, service marks and trade names that we use in connection with the operation of our business. This prospectus supplement may also contain trademarks, service marks and trade names of third parties, which are the property of their respective owners. Our use or display of third parties’ trademarks, service marks, trade names or products in this prospectus supplement is not intended to, and does not imply a relationship with, or endorsement or sponsorship by us. Solely for convenience, the trademarks, service marks and trade names referred to in this prospectus supplement may appear without the ®, TM or SM symbols, but such references are not intended to indicate, in any way, that we will not assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, our rights or the right of the applicable licensor to these trademarks, service marks and trade names.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves risks. The prospectus supplement applicable to each offering of our securities may contain a discussion of additional risks applicable to the offering. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the specific factors discussed herein and under the heading “Risk Factors” in the applicable prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference in the prospectus supplement or appearing or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024, which is incorporated herein by reference, and may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the Commission in the future and any prospectus supplement related to a particular offering. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein, including statements regarding future events, our future financial performance, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by terminology including “anticipates,” “believes,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “should,” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we do not make forward looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” or elsewhere in this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein, which may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in a highly regulated, very competitive, and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we address the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short term and long-term business operations, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed (i) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, (ii) in this prospectus supplement and, in particular, the risks discussed below and under the heading “Risk Factors” and (iii) those discussed in other documents we file with the SEC. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and notes incorporated by reference herein. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this prospectus supplement may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statement.

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, each of which applies only as of the date of this prospectus supplement. You are advised to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our reports on Forms 8-K, 10-Q and 10-K filed with the SEC.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless otherwise set forth in a prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds of any offering of securities for working capital and other general corporate purposes. We will have significant discretion in the use of any net proceeds. We may provide additional information on the use of net proceeds from the sale of the offered securities in an applicable prospectus supplement.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

General

The descriptions of our capital stock and certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws, as amended, are summaries and are qualified by reference to the certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws, as amended, that are currently in effect. Copies of these documents have been filed with the SEC and are incorporated by reference herein. For instructions on how to find copies of these documents, please read “Where You Can Find Additional Information” and “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.”

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, provides for common stock and preferred stock, the rights, preferences and privileges of which may be designated from time to time by our board of directors.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 80,000,000 shares, all with a par value of $0.001 per share, of which 70,000,000 shares are designated as common stock and 10,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock.

Common Stock

Voting Power; Dividends. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and have the right to vote cumulatively for the election of directors. This means that in the voting at our annual meeting, each stockholder or his proxy, may multiply the number of his shares by the number of directors to be elected then cast the resulting total number of votes for a single nominee, or distribute such votes on the ballot among the nominees as desired. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor, subject to any preferential dividend rights for our outstanding preferred stock.

Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably our net assets available after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of holders of any of our outstanding preferred stock.

Preemptive and Other Rights. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future.

Our common stockholders may not receive any assets or funds until our creditors have been paid in full and the preferential or participating rights of our preferred stockholders have been satisfied. If we participate in a corporate merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of property or stock, or other reorganization, any payments or shares of stock allocated to our common stockholders will be distributed pro-rata to holders of our common stock on a per share basis. If we redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire for payment any shares of our common stock, we will treat each share of common stock identically.

We may issue additional shares of our common stock and our preferred stock, if authorized by the board, without the common stockholders’ approval, unless required by Delaware law or a stock exchange on which our securities are traded. If we receive the appropriate payment, shares of our common stock that we issue will be fully paid and nonassessable.

Nasdaq Capital Market. Our shares of common stock are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol CETX.

Transfer Agent and Registrar. The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Clear Trust LLC, Lutz, Florida.

Preferred Stock

Under our certificate of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized, without further stockholder action, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, with such powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights and such qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof as shall be set forth in the resolutions providing therefor. We have no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock.

Series A Preferred Stock

Pursuant to the certificate of designation relating to those shares, each issued and outstanding share of series A preferred stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the result of (i) the total number of shares of common stock outstanding at the time of such vote multiplied by 1.01, and divided by (ii) the total number of shares of series A preferred stock outstanding at the time of such vote, at each meeting of our stockholders with respect to any and all matters presented to our stockholders for their action or consideration, including the election of directors.

Our series A preferred stock has equal distribution rights with our common stockholders upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our company, and otherwise has no pre-emptive, subscription, conversion or redemption rights.

Series C Preferred Stock

On October 3, 2019, pursuant to Article IV of our Articles of Incorporation, our Board of Directors voted to designate a class of preferred stock entitled Series C Preferred Stock, consisting of up to one hundred thousand (100,000) shares, par value $0.001. Under the Certificate of Designation, holders of Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to the number of votes per share equal to the result of (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time of such vote multiplied by 10.01, and divided by (ii) the total number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding at the time of such vote, at each meeting of our shareholders with respect to any and all matters presented to our shareholders for their action or consideration, including the election of directors.

Series 1 Preferred

As of January 8, 2024, 2,579,994 shares of series 1 preferred stock (the “series 1 preferred”), were issued and 2,515,894 outstanding having the following powers, preferences and rights:

Dividends. Holders of the series 1 preferred are entitled to receive cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 10% of the purchase price per year, payable semiannually on the last day of March and September in each year. Dividends may also be paid, at our option, in additional shares of series 1 preferred, valued at their liquidation preference. The series 1 preferred ranks senior to the common stock with respect to dividends. Dividends will be entitled to be paid prior to any dividend to the holders of our common stock.

Liquidation Preference. The series 1 preferred has a liquidation preference of $10.00 per share, equal to its purchase price. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, any amounts remaining available for distribution to stockholders after payment of all liabilities of our company will be distributed first to the holders of series 1 preferred, and then pari passu to the holders of the series A preferred stock and our common stock. The holders of series 1 preferred have preference over the holders of our common stock on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company. The holders of series 1 preferred also have preference over the holders of our series A preferred stock.

Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided in the certificate of designation, preferences and rights or as required by law, the series 1 preferred vote together with the shares of our common stock (and not as a separate class) at any annual or special meeting of stockholders. Except as required by law, each holder of shares of series 1 preferred is entitled to two votes for each share of series 1 preferred held on the record date as though each share of series 1 preferred were two shares of our common stock. Holders of the series 1 preferred vote as a class on any amendment altering or changing the powers, preferences or rights of the series 1 preferred so as to affect them adversely.

No Conversion. The series 1 preferred are not convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock or any other security.

Rank. The series 1 preferred ranks with respect to distribution rights upon our liquidation, winding-up or dissolution and dividend rights, as applicable:

	●	senior to our series A preferred stock, common stock and any other class of capital stock we issue in the future unless the terms of that stock provide that it ranks senior to any or all of the series 1 preferred;

	●	on a parity with any class of capital stock we issue in the future the terms of which provide that it will rank on a parity with any or all of the series 1 preferred;

	●	junior to each class of capital stock issued in the future the terms of which expressly provide that such capital stock will rank senior to the series 1 preferred and the common stock; and

	●	junior to all of our existing and future indebtedness.

In addition, the series 1 preferred, with respect to rights upon our liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, will be structurally subordinated to existing and future indebtedness of our company and subsidiaries, as well as the capital stock of our subsidiaries held by third parties.

Redemption. We may mandatorily redeem any or all of the series 1 preferred at any time and from time to time at our option, by giving notice (by issuing a press release or otherwise making a public announcement, by mailing a notice of redemption or otherwise). If we redeem fewer than all of the outstanding shares of series 1 preferred, we may select the shares to be redeemed by redeeming shares proportionally, by lot, or by any other equitable method. The mandatory redemption price for any shares of series 1 preferred is an amount equal to the $10.00 purchase price per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends to the date fixed for redemption.

From and after any applicable redemption date, if funds necessary for the redemption are available and have been irrevocably deposited or set aside, then:

	●	the shares will no longer be deemed outstanding;

	●	the holders of the shares, as such, will cease to be stockholders; and

	●	all rights with respect to the shares of series 1 preferred will terminate except the right of the holders to receive the redemption price, without interest.

We may also repurchase, outside of our mandatory redemption rights, any shares of series 1 preferred in privately-negotiated transactions or in open market purchases on Nasdaq, subject to applicable regulations regarding issuer repurchases of their capital stock. In such cases, we would most likely do so at prices lower than the price at which we are entitled to mandatorily redeem the shares.

No Other Rights. The holders of the series 1 preferred have no preemptive or preferential or other rights to purchase or subscribe to any stock, obligations, warrants or other securities of ours.

Trading. The series 1 preferred is quoted on the OTC Markets under the symbol CETXP.

Transfer Agent and Registrar. Clear Trust, LLC, Florida, is the transfer agent and registrar for our series 1 preferred.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

The terms of our shares of series A, none are issued and outstanding at this time, and series C preferred stock, held by Saagar Govil, our CEO, may also have the effect of discouraging a takeover of our company. Pursuant to the certificate of designation for our Series A preferred stock, each outstanding share of Series A preferred stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the result of (i) the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding at the time of such vote multiplied by 1.01, divided by (ii) the total number of shares of our series A preferred stock outstanding at the time of such vote, at each meeting of stockholders of our company with respect to any and all matters presented to our stockholders for their action or consideration, including the election of directors. Pursuant to the certificate of designation for our Series C preferred stock, each issued and outstanding Series C Preferred Share shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the result of: (i) the number of shares of common stock of the Company (The “Common Shares”) issued and outstanding at the time of such vote multiplied by 10.01; divided by (ii) the total number of Series C Preferred Shares issued and outstanding at the time of such vote, at each meeting of shareholders of the Company with respect to any and all matters presented to the shareholders of the Company for their action or consideration, including the election of directors. Holders of Series C Preferred Shares shall vote together with the holders of Common Shares as a single class. As a result of Saagar Govil’s ownership of our Series C preferred stock, our management stockholders control, and will control in the future, substantially all matters requiring approval by the stockholders of our company, including the election of all directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Given this continuing voting interest of our series A preferred stock and series C preferred stock, its holder will be able to exert significant influence over all corporate activities including the outcome of tender offers, mergers, proxy contests or other purchases of common stock, which could discourage others from initiating changes of control.

Our certificate of incorporation, in order to combat “greenmail,” provides in general that any direct or indirect purchase by us of any of our voting stock or rights to acquire voting stock known to be beneficially owned by any person or group which holds more than 5% of a class of our voting stock and which has owned the securities being purchased for less than two years must be approved by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of voting stock, subject to certain exceptions. The prohibition of “greenmail” may tend to discourage or foreclose certain acquisitions of our securities, which might temporarily increase the price of our securities. Discouraging the acquisition of a large block of our securities by an outside party may also have a potential negative effect on takeovers. Parties seeking control of our company through large acquisitions of our securities will not be able to resort to “greenmail” should their bid fail, thus making such a bid less attractive to persons seeking to initiate a takeover effort.

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. Section 203 prohibits certain publicly held Delaware corporations from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an “interested stockholder,” unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A “business combination” includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person or entity who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within the preceding three years, did own) 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock. The statute contains provisions enabling a corporation to avoid the statute’s restrictions if the stockholders holding a majority of the corporation’s voting stock approve.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Our certificate of incorporation provides that any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (whether or not by or in the right of the company) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, incorporator, employee or agent of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, incorporator, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall be entitled to be indemnified by the company to the full extent then permitted by law or to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction shall deem proper or permissible under the circumstance, whichever is greater, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amount paid in settlement incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding. Such right of indemnification shall inure whether or not the claim asserted is based on matters which pre-date the company’s adoption of the indemnification provisions in its certificate of incorporation. Furthermore, such right of indemnification will continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, incorporator, employee or agent and will inure to the benefit of the heirs and personal representatives of such person.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may issue warrants for the purchase of common stock, preferred stock or debt securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent, or between us and the holder. If we elect to use a warrant agent, the warrant agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any registered holders of warrants or beneficial holders of warrants.

We will distribute a prospectus supplement with regard to each issue of warrants under this prospectus. Each prospectus supplement will describe:

	●	in the case of warrants to purchase common stock, the number of shares of common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants and the price at which you may purchase that number of shares of common stock upon exercise;

	●	in the case of warrants to purchase preferred stock, the designation, number of shares, stated value and terms, such as liquidation, dividend, conversion and voting rights, of the series of preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of the warrants and the price at which you may purchase that number of shares of preferred stock of the series upon exercise;

	●	in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, the designation, aggregate principal amount, currencies, denominations and terms of the series of debt securities purchasable upon exercise of the warrants and the price at which you may purchase the debt securities upon exercise;

	●	the period during which you may exercise the warrants;

	●	any provision adjusting the securities that may be purchased on exercise of the warrants, and the exercise price of the warrants, to prevent dilution or otherwise;

	●	the amount of warrants or rights outstanding;

	●	the place or places where warrants can be presented for exercise or for registration of transfer or exchange; and

	●	any other material terms of the warrants.

Except for certain participation rights as set forth in the warrants or as otherwise specified, prior to the exercise of any warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or debt securities, holders of the warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the common stock, preferred stock or debt securities purchasable upon exercise, including:

	●	in the case of warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock, the right to vote on the common stock or preferred stock purchasable upon exercise; or

	●	in the case of warrants for the purchase of debt securities, the right to receive payments of principal of, any premium or interest on the debt securities purchasable upon exercise or to enforce covenants in the applicable indenture.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

As used in this prospectus, debt securities means the debentures, notes, bonds and other evidences of indebtedness that we may issue from time to time. The debt securities may be either be senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities and may be secured or unsecured obligations. We may also issue convertible debt securities. Unless otherwise specified in a prospectus supplement, the debt securities will be direct unsecured obligations of Cemtrex.

Any indenture or form of indenture will be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The statements and descriptions in this prospectus or in any prospectus supplement regarding provisions of the indentures and debt securities are summaries thereof, do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the indentures (and any amendments or supplements we may enter into from time to time that are permitted under each Indenture) and the debt securities, including the definitions in the applicable indenture of various terms.

The indentures might not limit the aggregate principal amount of debt securities that we may issue and may provide that we may issue debt securities from time to time in one or more series, in each case with the same or various maturities, at par or at a discount. Unless indicated in a prospectus supplement, we may issue additional debt securities of a particular series without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of the series outstanding at the time of the issuance. Any of the additional debt securities, together with all other outstanding debt securities of that series, will constitute a single series of debt securities under the applicable indenture and will be equal in ranking.

Each prospectus supplement will describe the terms relating to the specific series of debt securities being offered. These terms may include some or all of the following:

	●	the title of the series of the offered debt securities;

	●	the price or prices at which the offered debt securities will be issued;

	●	any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the offered debt securities;

	●	the date or dates on which the principal of the offered debt securities will be payable;

	●	the rate or rates (which may be fixed or variable) per year at which the offered debt securities will bear interest, if any, or the method of determining the rate or rates and the date or dates from which interest, if any, will accrue;

	●	if the amount of principal, premium or interest with respect to the offered debt securities of the series may be determined with reference to an index or pursuant to a formula, the manner in which these amounts will be determined;

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

We may issue units comprised of two or more of common shares, preferred shares, warrants, debt securities or other securities in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. As a result, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. Each unit may be issued under a separate unit agreement to be entered into between us and, at our discretion, a bank or trust company, as unit agent, all as will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to the particular issue of units. The unit agent, if any, will act solely as our agent in connection with the units and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of units or beneficial owners of units. The summary of the terms of the units contained in this prospectus is not complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, all provisions of any applicable unit agreement. Reference is made to the prospectus supplement relating to the particular issue of units offered pursuant to such prospectus supplement for the terms of and information relating to such units, including, where applicable:

	●	the specific designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, and the number of such securities comprising each unit;

	●	the price or prices at which such units will be issued;

	●	whether the units are to be sold separately or with other securities;

	●	whether the units will be issued in definitive or global form or in any combination of these forms;

	●	the identity of the unit agent for the units and of any other depositaries, execution or paying agents, transfer agents, registrars or other agents;

	●	the proposed listing, if any, of the units or any securities comprising the units on any securities exchange;

	●	the designation and terms of any equity securities or warrants included in the units;

	●	the designation, aggregate principal amount, currency and terms of any debt securities included in the units;

	●	if applicable, the date from and after which any units and the securities comprising the units will be separately transferable;

	●	information with respect to book-entry procedures, if any; and

	●	any additional terms of the units or of the securities comprising the units, including terms, procedures and limitations for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may distribute the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at prices determined as the prospectus supplement specifies. We may sell securities to one or more underwriters for public offering and sale by them or may sell securities to investors directly or through agents. We will name any underwriter or agent involved in the offer and sale of securities in the prospectus supplement. We may also sell equity securities covered by this registration statement in “at the market offerings.”

Underwriters may offer and sell the securities at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed. Underwriters may also offer and sell securities at market prices, at prices related to market prices or at negotiated prices. We also may authorize underwriters acting as our agents to offer and sell the securities upon the terms and conditions set forth in any prospectus supplement. In connection with the sale of securities, we may be deemed to have paid compensation to the underwriters in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions. Underwriters may also receive commissions from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agent.

Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions (which may be changed from time to time) from the purchasers for whom they may act as agent.

The accompanying prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the offering and the method of distribution and will identify any firms acting as underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, including:

	●	the name or names of any underwriters;

	●	the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds to us from the sale;

	●	any underwriting discounts and other items constituting underwriter compensation;

	●	any public offering price;

	●	any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

	●	any securities exchange on which the securities offered in the prospectus supplement may be listed.

Under the Securities Act, underwriters, dealers and agents participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts and commissions they receive and any profit they realize on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. We may enter into agreements with underwriters, dealers and agents providing them indemnification against and contribution toward specified civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and reimbursement for various expenses.

We will indicate the extent to which we anticipate that a secondary market for the securities will be available in the prospectus supplement. Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Except as indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, securities other than common stock are not expected to be listed on any securities exchange. This prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time, if required, to describe a specific plan of distribution.

LEGAL MATTERS

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the validity of the issuance of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by The Doney Law Firm, Las Vegas, Nevada. Any underwriters will be represented by their own legal counsel, which will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement.
