Full analysisRevenue guidance
Category 3- Expectation of strong average price growth over next 2-3 years driven by product mix changes, with average price increasing notably from ~INR260-270 crores in 2021 to ~INR450 crores recently.
- Volumes in key segments like refrigerator films are gradually recovering after prior overproduction periods; production is showing signs of increase.
- Organic market growth estimated around 8-10%, import substitution potentially adding another 30% over a 5-year horizon, and new "sunrise" sectors (EV, solar) could drive exciting additional growth.
- Capacity expansions (new lines coming in FY’25 and FY’26) expected to enhance asset turns and revenue throughput, though precise forward estimates are cautious due to unpredictability.
- Growth also fueled by increasing exports and approvals from global players awaiting expanded capacity.
- Overall, company sees potential for substantial growth beyond current 500-700 crores in target markets with continued R&D and capacity ramp-up.

- A significant portion of the INR 500 crores capex is expected to be funded through internal accruals, with a minor portion through debt.
- No explicit mention of fresh equity fundraising in the recent discussion.
