Capex plans
No- The CAPEX program (approx. Rs. 750 crores) initiated primarily for specialty products targeting global coatings and plastics markets was completed in FY'23 and has started yielding positive results.

- For the Rieco engineering business, no major new investments are planned; focus is on transformation by strengthening organization and business processes to improve consistency and execution.
- Incremental costs related to ongoing acquisition transactions will arise as the deals close (expected in Q4 FY'25), but no material new capacity investments are expected for the Heubach acquisition side for the next 3-5 years besides maintenance/refurbishment.
- Future growth is expected from existing CAPEX-driven products and enhanced market penetration, not from fresh capital investments.
