  • Unit #5 commissioning in the current financial year will increase capacity significantly, expected to boost sales and growth (Page 9, 14).
  • Exports are expected to improve from Q2 onwards, aiming for 25%-30% of total revenues, contributing to growth (Page 6).

Fundraise plans

No
  • The company does not anticipate any major CAPEX going forward; only modest maintenance and debottlenecking CAPEX of around Rs. 5-5.5 crores is expected for the year (Page 8).
  • There is no mention of any planned new equity fundraising; promoter holding is stable at 58% with no plan for further dilution (Page 5).
  • The company is focused on gradually reducing debt by repaying about Rs. 20 crores annually; long-term debts are being repaid quarter-on-quarter (Page 10).
  • Debt reduction to zero is expected over 4-5 years if current repayment rate continues, with potential to pre-close debt earlier due to growing revenues (Page 10).
  • Some promoter loans are used temporarily for de-pledging shares but these will reduce when shares are de-pledged (Pages 17-19).
  • The company is using non-fund based loans and export packing credit to reduce interest costs (Page 6).
