  • Incremental turnover from new units (Unit-V) is anticipated starting FY19.
  • Business is driven by tender programs (especially monsoon season) with generally stable quarter-to-quarter sales.

Capex plans

Yes
- Capex is ongoing and essential for the company’s operations; without it, the company cannot run (Page 11). - The CAPEX turnover ratio is approximately 1:1 for greenfield expansions and about 3.5 times for brownfield expansions (additional equipment) (Page 11). - Unit IV (formerly Unit V) has been commissioned and production has started; trial runs are finishing, and commercial production will commence soon (Pages 13-14). - Incremental turnover from new units, like Unit V, is expected primarily from next financial year FY19 onwards (Page 16). - The company plans to continue capitalizing CWIP (Capital Work in Progress) year on year as new assets become operational (Page 14). - Forward integration into formulations is planned but timelines are uncertain, with priority currently on debt reduction before major expansion (Page 13). - Omkar Herlekar has lent Rs. 14 crores as loans to the company, indicating internal financial support for operations (Page 11). Overall, ongoing and future capex is planned with focus on expanding production capacity and integrating forward into formulations, while managing debt carefully.
