REVIEW OF OPERATIONS AND OUTLOOK:

FY 2024-25 emerged as a landmark year for your Company, registering the highest-ever sales revenue in its history. Despite facing global headwinds and market volatility, your Company exhibited strong resilience and delivered a remarkable turnaround. It achieved a record turnover of ? 642.71 Cr., marking a significant milestone in its growth journey.

The year under review your company faced three significant challenges:

• The closure of its subsidiary in Brasil which led to an impairment loss of ?39.07 Lacs. The management

decided to shut down this business as the cost of logistics and warehousing was not generating the profits that were envisaged.

• Significant cash losses in the CPP division in the early part of the year.

• The decision to exit the CPP business which led to a one time impairment loss of ?11.62 Cr.

We are proud that the company was able to achieve such an exceptional performance amid a challenging global environment. It is nothing but a testament to our well-defined strategy and disciplined execution.

A sustained focus on strategic marketing initiatives, customer acquisition, and deeper market penetration contributed significantly to the enhanced operational and financial performance, as outlined below:

DIVESTMENT OF CAST POLYPROPYLENE FILM (CPP) DIVISION:

Your Company ventured into the Cast Polypropylene Film (CPP) division in the previous financial year as part of its diversification strategy. However, it was soon observed that the CPP industry as a whole was facing significant headwinds, characterized by subdued demand, lower price realizations, and considerable overcapacity. This resulted in underutilization of installed capacity and unremunerative prices leading to enormous losses. This was beginning to impact our core business of FIBCs and Fabrics. Recognizing the long-term implications of this trend, the Company undertook a comprehensive strategic review of the CPP division''s future prospects in the new scenarios that evolved. Based on this assessment, and in line with its commitment to operational efficiency and value creation, the Company decided to exit from the segment and focus its resources on the core business verticals with higher growth potential.

Accordingly, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with M/s SRF Ltd. and since then has executed the sale of the CPP division''s plant, machinery and related assets on an ''as-is-where-is'' basis. This strategic divestment enabled the Company to strengthen its financial position and channel capital and management bandwidth toward its more profitable and sustainable business segments.

THE YEAR GONE BY

FY 2024-25 was a remarkable year- your Company demonstrated significant progress on all strategically significant parameters. While improving production efficiency and adopting a go-to-market strategy the Company also strengthened its focus on increasing the share of value added products in its portfolio. We continued to invest in technologies to reduce carbon emissions and to drive resources efficiency. These integrated efforts resulted in improved operational performance across all business segments. The sales volumes recorded during FY 2024-25

Your Company continues to place strong emphasis on the export of value-added products and on expanding its global presence. During the year under review, the Company successfully entered two new international markets, thereby opening up fresh avenues for its product portfolio. Additionally, your Company actively participated in prominent global trade exhibitions such as Tokyopack in Japan and Plastico in Brazil. The encouraging response and engagement received at these events are expected to significantly contribute to the Company''s efforts in deepening its global footprint. We are glad to report that your company continues to enjoy a strong loyalty from its customers where almost 80% of our export sales are from repeated customers.

Solar Power:

Sustainability remains a cornerstone of your Company''s operational philosophy and long-term strategy. Your Company has been a front runner in the adoption of renewable energy sources. Demonstrating a firm commitment to clean energy, your Company met approximately 47% of its total power requirements through solar energy during the year—resulting in meaningful cost savings and a significant reduction in carbon emissions.

Building on this momentum, the Company further entered into a long-term open access Group Captive Solar Power Purchase Agreement for a capacity of 3,000 kWp. Additionally, a 1,000 kWp rooftop solar installation was implemented at Unit 3 under the OPEX model. With the commissioning of these two solar power projects, the Company now expects to meet nearly 60% of its total energy requirements through renewable solar sources—marking a substantial step forward in its journey toward sustainable, efficient, and environmentally responsible operations.

Trading Activities:

The performance of Dealer Operated Polymer Warehouse activity of Indian Oil Corporation Limited was adversely impacted during the year under review. The Company

recorded a decline of approximately 11% in this segment compared to the previous financial year. This decline was primarily due to intensifying market competition, with emerging players'' entry into the polymer space, thereby reshaping competitive dynamics.

In response, the Company has initiated corrective measures by strengthening its customer outreach and opening the new warehouse in Bareily will also improve service efficiency. These steps are expected to help stabilize and revive the performance of this business vertical in the coming year.

OUTLOOK:

During FY 2024-25, the Company undertook several decisive actions to further improve its operational focus and strengthen its financial position. Key amongst these was the strategic divestment of the underperforming CPP division, which has enabled a sharper focus on core, margin-accretive businesses and a more disciplined approach to capital allocation.

The vacated land and building from the CPP division will be effectively repurposed for the expansion of the Company''s core business in due course, thereby ensuring optimal asset utilization and capacity enhancement aligned with long-term strategic objectives.

In parallel, the Company is streamlining its operations, targeting efficiency improvements across its operations. The Raffia division will be scaled-up to bridge the volume gap left by the divestment, with a concerted focus on improving productivity and driving higher throughput. These measures are expected to strengthen the operating leverage and margin profile of the Company going forward.

Further, with a strengthened balance sheet and the number of activities undertaken, the Company will be better positioned to pursue sustainable growth, respond proactively to market dynamics, and invest in strategic opportunities with greater agility and confidence.

Despite continued global disruptions and market volatility, positive signs are already emerging across key business segments. Sales realizations in the FIBC division have shown an upward trend. The Company''s foray into the Japanese markets—the world''s third-largest importer of FIBCs—has started attaining traction, with regular shipments now underway. This market had remained largely untapped by Indian manufacturers, and our early entry positions us favorably for long-term engagement.

Looking ahead, your Company remains committed to its strategy of innovation, operational excellence, and responsible growth. By staying agile, focused, and forward-thinking, we aim to deliver enhanced stakeholder value and solidify our leadership in the global industrial bulk packaging solutions space.

Fiscal 2023-24 witnessed to be one of the most challenging years for your Company and the Company was impacted by the volatility in the global market, increased competition from within the country and an affected geopolitical environment. During the year the margins were badly affected largely due to the following reasons:

1. Lower realization on sales of fabric to South America;

2. Highly competitive market environment from within the country on exports;

3. Higher ocean freight due to Red Sea crises and, consequently, re-routing the consignments which put additional cost of freight and increased time of delivery.

4. The CPP division has been witnessing losses due to adverse market conditions.

The entire FIBC industry continues to be adversely impacted due to geopolitical reasons. Despite this, it is heartening to note that the operational performance of the Company has improved and your Company was able to record an increase in production and sales in volume terms. During the year, the production and Sales

of Rafia division in quantity terms recorded a growth of about 20% and 23%, respectively.

The year witnessed the diversification and establishment of new vertical of the Company in the form of Cast Polypropylene Film (CPP). However, due to over capacity in the CPP market the performance in the CPP division was sluggish leading to lower than expected realization and underutilization of the capacity.

With a continued emphasis on export of value added products and expanding its geographical footprints, your company has penetrated three new export markets which has opened up new avenues for the products of the Company. The Company participated in various exhibitions viz. Arabplast, Dubai, Techtextil, Germany, Propack, Kenya and Tanzania Exhibition at Tanzania. The responses received during these participations will surely help the Company to further expand its global footprints.

Solar Power:

Sustainability is deeply ingrained in everything we do. Your Company is continuously making an endeavor to opt for renewal sources of power which has enabled the Company, during the year, to consume approximately 45% of its power needs through ''Solar Power'' enabling not only cost savings to the Company but also reducing the carbon emission in the environment.

Trading Activities:

The performance of Dealer Operated Polymer Warehouse activity of Indian Oil Corporation Limited was improved during the year under review. The Company recorded a growth of about 20% in this sphere in comparison to previous year. Further, the company also opened an additional warehouse in Bareilly in May, 2024 to cater the requirements of nearby regions. This will contribute further to the bottom line from the current financial year.

Outlook:

With India standing at the cusp of multi-decade growth and Europe being the flag bearer of universal sustainability, your Company, having state of art manufacturing facilities and a legacy of five decades, is well positioned and well prepared to capitalize on this long-term opportunity.

We are fully committed to cater to the aspirations of our valued customers, engage our people, attract promising talent and build meaningful partnerships to grow our business. By consciously and energetically driving meaningful change, we are bringing the promise of a better tomorrow closer. We wish to be an active participant in the India''s growth story and work towards transformation.

We are on track to regain profitability during the current year and are hopeful for better results in the years to come. Sales realizations in FIBC''s have begun to rise upwards as the Global Economy stabilizes. Initiatives taken to enter the Japanese market have begun to bear fruit as shipments have started. Japan is the world''s third largest importer of FIBC''s and a market so far not being catered to by India. Recent trends in CPP too have seen a rise in selling price and higher demand as the initial market penetration activity has helped.
