Borosil Ltd

- Borosil Limited has an enabling resolution for a potential INR 250 crores fundraise, taken annually as a procedural measure. - Currently, there is no plan to raise any money either through rights issue, QIP, debt, or equity. - Management explicitly stated that there are no thoughts or plans for fundraising at present unless there is a dramatic change in circumstances. - The enabling resolution is precautionary to avoid the need for an EGM if quick fundraising becomes necessary. - Therefore, no current or upcoming fundraising through debt or equity is planned as of the May 2025 call.

- **INR 40 crores capex** planned for setting up a new stainless steel vacuum flask manufacturing plant. Expected revenue generation from this capex is about INR 100 crores due to a 2-3x capex-to-turnover ratio in steel product lines. - **Maintenance capex** of approximately INR 20 crores annually for regular upkeep. - No current plans to set up additional opal glass or borosilicate furnaces; any such plans will be announced after Board approval. - Investment in **expanding borosilicate glassware in-house manufacturing**, leading to higher raw material and packing inventory. - Focus on **capacity utilization** improvements: borosilicate furnace capacity recently commissioned with a target to reach 90-95% utilization. - Strategies include helping current suppliers debottleneck their plants and working towards doubling capacity in phases with relatively moderate capex (~40% of initial capex costs).

- Borosil aims to return to a growth path next year with a year-on-year growth target of 15% to 20%. - Historically, the company has achieved a sales CAGR of approximately 23.5% from 2018 to 2025. - FY25 is expected to be challenging due to BIS-related issues and lower sales in certain categories like Hydra and domestic appliances. - Capacity utilization targets include increasing borosilicate plant utilization from around 65-70% to 90-95%. - Expansion plans include a capex of INR 40 crores for a new stainless steel vacuum flask plant targeting INR100 crores in revenues. - No immediate plans for new opalware or borosilicate furnace capacity expansion; further expansions will depend on Board approvals. - Long-term focus remains on expanding distribution and brand salience to drive revenue growth.

- The company expects to return to its growth path next year after a tougher FY '25. - Desire to grow revenue between 15% and 20% year-on-year remains unchanged. - Over the past 9-10 years, the company has achieved a sales CAGR of around 23.5%. - FY '25 was challenging due to regulatory issues and channel disruptions but seen as a temporary bump. - Operating ROCE is expected to rebound as new capacities in borosilicate glassware and Opalware ramp up. - Margins expected to improve with better capacity utilization, no significant price reductions planned. - EBITDA could increase by 2-3% over the next 2-3 years as costs rationalize. - No immediate plans for raising capital; capex mainly focused on expanding vacuum flask capacity (INR40 crores) and maintenance (INR20 crores). Overall, management is optimistic about growth and profitability rebound from FY '26 onwards.
