ODB2

The company expanded its ODB2 facility last year from 550 TPA to 2200TPA. This has boosted output growing at a
steady pace. This has allowed us to compete effectively on price and secure our status as a leading global supplier of
ODB2 to major global paper companies. Over the last year, our competitors from Mainland China have steadily
reduced prices to all-time lows. As we have certain backward integrations for the product, we have been able to
continue production despite lower margins. Despite the current trend of low pricing, this coupled with China 1
policies promise a brighter future as prices are expected to revive going forward.

PAP

We have not only enhanced the product quality but also increased the plant''s capacity. Our facility has now
transitioned to a fully continuous production process, covering both the synthesis of the product and the downstream
separation, ensuring greater efficiency and output consistency. Currently, due to Chinese dumping of PAP into the
Indian market, we are facing significant price pressures on the same. As a PLI recipient, we have made
representations to the GoI on the difficulties faced on account of Chinese dumping.

Pharmaceuticals

Looking ahead, we anticipate significant growth in the pharmaceutical sector, particularly with the introduction of new
products like Paracetamol. This initiative aligns with our strategic focus on diversifying our portfolio and strengthening
our foothold in high-demand markets.

MAP and legacy products

Furthermore, our legacy products, such as m-Aminophenol, are finding new next-gen applications in several different
industries. Through close collaboration with our customers, we are actively exploring and expanding these
applications, fostering innovation and opening new avenues for growth.

Environment and Sustainability

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we are diligently working towards achieving zero discharge across all
operations. Our internal target was to reach zero effluent discharge for all products, including legacy ones, by
September 2025. This endeavour has taken longer than expected and we have had to revise the target to June
2026.This goal is supported by our substantial investments in renewable energy sources such as solar power and
green hydrogen. Moreover, we are actively transitioning from conventional reduction technologies to those powered
by green hydrogen, underscoring our dedication to environmentally responsible practices.

ERP Implementation

To further enhance operational efficiency and facilitate data-driven decision-making, the company has initiated the
implementation of a comprehensive Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. This ERP system will integrate all
facets of our operations, from inventory management and procurement to production planning and financial
management. The implementation is currently underway, with a dedicated team already in place to ensure a smooth
transition and alignment with our strategic objectives. Once fully operational, the ERP system is expected to
streamline processes, improve resource allocation, and reduce operational costs.

Plant Automation and IoT Integration

In parallel with the ERP implementation, the company is actively exploring the use of Internet of Things (IoT)
technologies for enhanced plant monitoring and automation. By leveraging IoT, we aim to achieve real-time
monitoring of equipment, predictive maintenance, and automated control systems, which will significantly improve
operational efficiency and minimize downtime. The data generated from IoT-enabled devices will eventually be
integrated with the ERP system, providing a seamless flow of information across the organization and further
optimizing our manufacturing processes. To support these initiatives, we have expanded our team to focus on both
ERP implementation and the exploration of IoT solutions.

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIO NS

Your company, in view of good order position, could have achieved higher turnover but for paucity of working capital which hampered the regular and continuous procurement of raw materials and input services to ensure uninterrupted requisite level of operation. Your company has attained turnover of Rs. 6,925 lacs (P.Y. Rs. 6,706 lacs).

All direct and indirect cost except finance cost are under stringent monitoring and control. All efforts are made to enhance efficiency by improving yield. The adverse effect of slowdown in major economies and stiff price competition were mitigated by adopting aggressive marketing strategy and stringent quality standard which are the back bone of the company. As a result the margins on products have shown improvement despite lower level of operation.

The operating margin are burdened with heavy finance cost consequent to costly short term borrowings to fund the past losses caused by extra ordinary circumstances and huge installment repayment obligations to the banks coupled with this was huge provisioning of mark to market foreign exchange liabilities.

Beneficial effects of steps taken to improve yield, depreciating rupee against US dollar, better sales pricing and product mix were washed out by the effect of above adverse factors.

During the period company has raised share capital by Rs. 175 lacs by allotment of 1750000 9% Non- convertible cumulative redeemable preference shares ofRs. 10/- each on preferential basis to promoters and/or holding company.
