Q: Can you share the hits and misses for FY25 and your growth outlook for FY26? A: In FY25, we achieved a top line of INR 235 crores, an 11% increase from the previous year. However, we faced challenges such as an extended rainy season and restrictions on construction activities, which impacted our revenue.

Q: What is the expected capital expenditure for the next few years, and how will it be financed? A: We plan to invest INR 50 to 60 crores over the next 2 to 3 years, primarily for establishing a dedicated manufacturing facility for WPC doors and enhancing capacity at our southern India plants. This investment will be financed largely through internal accruals, reflecting our strong cash generation capabilities. - Mr. Hidesh Agarwal, Chief Financial Officer.
Q: What are the current capacity utilization rates, and what are your plans for capacity expansion? A: For FY25, the capacity utilization for PVC profile extrusion was around 53%, and for UPVC windows, it was 40%.

Q: How do you plan to compete with unorganized players in the modular furniture segment? A: Our strategy focuses on design and execution capabilities, offering a comprehensive range of products with upgraded designs and patterns. We leverage our organized presence across India, digital availability, and physical infrastructure to differentiate ourselves from unorganized players. - Mr. Divijay Dhabriya, Chairman and Managing Director.
Q: What is your guidance on margins and sales growth for the next few years? A: We are confident in maintaining our current margins, supported by our focus on high-margin solutions and stable raw material pricing.
