Revenue guidance

Category 1

→Growth driven primarily by new capacity expansion; existing capacity is already at optimal utilization (100% in food containers).
→Incremental revenue expected mainly from new capacity:
→ - Rs. 150-200 crores incremental revenue in FY 2026-27.
→ - Rs. 300 crores incremental revenue in FY 2027-28.
→Total company turnover expected to reach around Rs. 500 crores by FY 2027-28 (existing + new capacities).
→Expansion focused on plastic food containers and paper products, with PLA stores and paper straw being seasonal and not capacity-expanded.
→Growth also supported by shifting demand from China to India (China Plus One policy), fueling substitution and expansion.
→Customer base expected to grow slightly; current demand from existing customers exceeds present capacity.
→Export to domestic sales ratio to be maintained at about 35%-40% export.
→Seasonality impacts plastic store and paper straw volumes; peak season in H2 (Feb-April and Sept-Oct).
→Company expects working capital borrowing and total debt to increase proportionally with expansion.
