External Factors
Industry Trends
The industry is shifting toward branded retail camphor products; Mangalam is positioning itself by increasing its retail revenue share from 16% to 38% in two years.
Competitive Landscape
Intense competition in the camphor segment constrains scalability and exerts pressure on profitability margins.

Consumer Behavior
Increasing consumer preference for branded, high-quality camphor and home care products is driving retail segment growth.
Geopolitical Risks
Trade barriers or supply disruptions from Indonesia, Brazil, or Russia could impact raw material availability and costs.

Geographic Concentration Risk
Significant supply chain concentration in Indonesia, Brazil, Russia, and Europe for critical raw materials.
Third Party Dependencies
High dependency on international suppliers for 60-70% of input requirements.
Technology Obsolescence Risk
Low risk in core terpene chemistry, but requires continuous efficiency improvements to remain competitive against peers.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Trade receivables stood at INR 69 Cr (47 days) in FY25, indicating moderate credit risk from retail and industrial clients.
