This performance reflects our disciplined strategy execution and operational efficiency.
The MDF division continued to be a key growth driver, with revenue of INR 6,637 million, supported by a strong 42.8% year-on-year increase in export sales. Growing acceptance of our MDF products in international markets has further strengthened our global presence, leading to a 32.4% year-on-year increase in export volumes. Furthermore, our continued focus on value-added products remains central to our strategy for long-term margin improvement.
The Laminates division also delivered a stable performance, recording revenue of Rs 1,989 million, driven by steady export demand. Commercial production at the Jumbo Laminates facility in Gandhinagar commenced in the month of April, 2025 under Phase 1, with an initial installed capacity of 1.2 million sheets per annum. We have already secured initial orders for exports accounting for 15% of this capacity, marking a promising start for the new facility. Furthermore, we are on track to commence the phase 2 production by the month of October this year.
Despite the increase in industry MDF capacity from 2.3 million CBM to 3.5 to 4 million CBM over the past two years, we have maintained our market share, supported by strong brand recall and a customer-focused approach. Our distribution network continued to grow with the addition of new distributors and retailers throughout the year, further improving our market reach. We also closed FY2025 with a healthy net debt-to-equity ratio of 0.41x, reflecting our focus on maintaining a strong and stable financial position.

Free sandwich, free wi-fi, Rs 1,200 bank bill: Inside India's airport lounge economy
Synopsis Airport lounges in India seem free, but the reality is different. Banks and card networks cover the cost, paying operators between Rs 600 and Rs 1,200 per domestic visit, or $25 to $35 internationally. They use lounge access to build loyalty and drive spending. Lounges in turn profit from volume, partnerships, and limited paid passes. With usage soaring, overcrowding is pushing banks to tighten rules, capping visits and cutting guest access. Travellers still save money, but the fine print is getting stricter. TIL Creatives Representative AI Image Airport lounges have become a familiar sight for Indian travellers. They promise calm amid the bustle of terminals: free food and drinks, recliners, Wi-Fi, charging points, and sometimes even spa treatments or sleeping pods. The attraction is obvious. But one question lingers. If passengers are not paying directly, who is?Data analyst Suraj Kumar Talreja broke down the business model in a widely read post on X. 'Most people who enter lounges in India today don't actually pay anything out of pocket. You swipe your credit or debit card and walk in. It feels free.' That 'free' entry is anything but. As Talreja explained, 'Every time you enter a lounge using your card, whether it's HDFC, Axis, SBI, ICICI, or even Rupay, the lounge operator gets paid by the bank (or by Visa/Mastercard/Amex). This is part of your credit card benefit package, and the bank foots the bill as a loyalty and acquisition cost.' The numbers add up quickly. 'In India, it typically ranges from Rs 600 to Rs 1,200 per visit (domestic lounges) and 25 dollars to 35 dollars for international lounges (via networks like Priority Pass or LoungeKey),' he said. Even a quick sandwich and coffee can cost a bank that fee. — suritalreja (@suritalreja) So how do lounges profit when most visitors pay nothing upfront? Talreja was direct. 'They get paid per visit, get volume from credit card users, often save on cost by partnering with caterers and airports and some sell day passes (low share).' There are four main ways travellers gain access: credit and debit card tie-ups, international networks like Priority Pass or DreamFolks, direct paid entry (usually Rs 1,500–Rs 3,000), and airline tickets in higher classes. The first option dominates in India, driven by banks competing for customers. Banks are not simply covering costs out of generosity. Lounge access works as a powerful marketing tool. It creates a sense of privilege, encouraging cardholders to use their cards more often, which in turn earns banks transaction fees. Customers are also more likely to stay loyal or upgrade to premium cards. As Talreja put it, it is 'psychology + economics.' International lounge networks such as LoungeKey and Priority Pass play a different role. They do not own lounges. Instead, they act as middlemen, selling access rights in bulk to banks and settling payments directly with lounge has witnessed a boom in lounge usage. With every second traveller carrying a card promising entry, overcrowding has become common at airports in Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru. This is pushing banks to tighten restrictions include limiting access to four free visits per quarter, barring supplementary cardholders, restricting entry to domestic terminals only, denying guest access, and suspending lounge use if a card is inactive. Premium cards such as HDFC Infinia, Axis Reserve, Amex Platinum, and ICICI Emeralde still promise unlimited or international visits, but these remain travellers, lounges often remain worthwhile. A plate of food and drinks can save between Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 compared to airport restaurants. Free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, charging stations, and clean restrooms add to the value. 'Some lounges have beds and showers (especially in T3 Delhi or Bangalore International),' noted everyone is convinced. One user responded to his thread by saying, 'Airport lounges in India are now like a second-class railway station waiting room. Best skipped I think.' Others highlighted that many cards now demand a minimum spend before lounge privileges kick these debates, the model continues to benefit all sides. Travellers get comfort, banks build loyalty and earn fees, lounges secure steady payments, and airports manage crowds more one user summarised on X after reading Talreja's thread: 'What an awesome thread. Loved the details.' Another added, 'There is a B2B version of the lounge too, wherein you can buy a membership to get access to the lounge.'The economics may not be visible to passengers, but every swipe of a card is part of a carefully balanced system. It looks free, but it is anything but.
