Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • The company targets reaching a turnover of INR 500 crores by FY28 with an EBITDA of approximately INR 90 crores.
  • Incremental revenue from added capacity (especially injection molding machines increased from 20 to 29) is expected to contribute around INR 100 to 125 crores in FY27.
  • New projects including increased plastic food container capacity (tripling existing capacity) and paper-based packaging (including paper cups) are projected to generate an additional INR 300 crores in sales.
  • Current turnover guidance is based on stable prices prior to the war, with caution on pricing volatility impacting revenue.
  • Export volumes are expected to remain stable; revenue fluctuations primarily due to raw material price changes, not quantity decline.
  • The company plans further expansions and diversification post stabilization of the current capital projects, indicating long-term growth potential.

Margin guidance

Category 3
  • Glen Industries targets INR500 crores turnover with INR90-95 crores EBITDA by FY28, reflecting substantial growth from FY26 levels (INR205.16 crores revenue, INR38.50 crores EBITDA).
  • Sustainable EBITDA margin guidance is maintained between 18% to 19% over the next 2-3 years.
  • New capacity additions (food containers, paper cups) expected to contribute INR100-125 crores revenue in FY27 and up to INR300 crores incrementally post full stabilization.
  • Capex for expansion ranges between INR130-135 crores, funded entirely from internal resources without external borrowing.
  • Price increases due to raw material instability currently boost turnover (~INR2 crores monthly impact), but projections are based on pre-war stable prices for conservatism.
  • Management cautious on price volatility impacting margins but expects absolute EBITDA to remain stable despite raw material cost fluctuations.
  • Focus is on capacity stabilization before further diversification or new product introduction.
