revenue

Future growth expectations in sales/revenue/volumes?

- The company aspires to achieve consistent revenue growth of 12% to 15% year-on-year over the next 3 years (Pages 9, 10, 13, 17). - Garment and Indigo Knit yarn segments are expected to grow at a relatively higher pace, though their contribution to overall sales will depend on the growth base sizes (Pages 13, 17). - The fabric business, which is the largest segment (77% of revenue), is also expected to grow due to still existing unorganized market segments (Pages 6, 13, 17). - Volume growth is expected to align with the targeted sales growth of 12%-15% annually (Page 10). - The company plans to strengthen brands through increased advertisement spend (back to 4%-5% of sales), expected to support growth without significantly impacting EBITDA margins (Pages 9, 11, 19, 20). - Short-term retail demand is weak but expected to recover with festival and wedding seasons (Page 7).
