Profitability Margins
PAT margin improved from 21.45% in FY24 to 26.02% in FY25. Net profit ratio increased from 21.21% to 27.43% due to higher operating margins and a richer product mix.

Operational Drivers
Raw Materials
Float glass (primary raw material) and allied glass components. Raw material prices have been sluggish/falling, which pressured gross margins in FY25.
Import Sources
Asian countries (specifically mentioned regarding strategic import discounts).
Capacity Expansion
Expanding through a third manufacturing plant (INR 24-25 Cr investment) and diversifying into solar glass sheet manufacturing with revenue contributions expected from FY26 onwards.
Raw Material Costs
Sluggish raw material prices led to gross margin pressure in FY25. Management is mitigating this by focusing on higher-margin customized orders and early payment discounts for trade payables.
Manufacturing Efficiency
Focusing on smart automation and energy-efficient upgrades to create a globally competitive organization.
Logistics & Distribution
Expanding geographic reach via 15 new marketing offices to enhance brand visibility and customer response speed.
Strategic Growth
Expected Growth Rate
35-45%

Third Party Dependencies
Dependency on accounting software that lacked an audit trail (edit log) feature throughout FY25, though statutory reporting on this was not yet applicable.
Technology Obsolescence Risk
Mitigated by investments in smart automation and training technical teams on the latest glass processing techniques.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Trade Receivables turnover ratio decreased 53.53% to 1.91 in FY25, indicating a potential slowdown in collection efficiency.
