Raw Material Costs
Cost of materials consumed for H1 FY26 was INR 41.90 Cr, representing 79.1% of revenue from operations. This high percentage makes the company highly sensitive to input price fluctuations.
Strategic Growth
Expected Growth Rate
31%
Growth Strategy

External Factors
Industry Trends
The industry is shifting toward high-performance specialty tapes for industrial applications. Srivasavi is positioning itself by integrating polymer manufacturing to stay competitive in this evolving landscape.
Competitive Moat
The company's moat is built on its diverse product portfolio (foams, films, fabrics) and its move toward vertical integration with Unit 5, which reduces dependency on external polymer suppliers and enhances cost leadership.
Macro Economic Sensitivity
Highly sensitive to industrial production growth and manufacturing sector demand in India, particularly in automotive and electronics where specialty tapes are used.
Consumer Behavior
B2B industrial demand is shifting toward more specialized, high-durability adhesive solutions for complex manufacturing processes.
Regulatory & Governance
Industry Regulations
Operations are subject to Karnataka State Pollution Control Board norms and safety standards for chemical and polymer manufacturing. SEBI (LODR) Regulations 2015 govern its financial reporting and disclosures.
Environmental Compliance
The company spent INR 11.37 Lakhs on CSR activities in FY25, exceeding its obligation of INR 11.31 Lakhs. It must comply with pollution norms in the Sompura and Doddaballapura industrial areas.
Taxation Policy Impact
The company's effective tax rate for FY25 was approximately 24.38%, with total tax expenses of INR 2.43 Cr on a profit before tax of INR 9.23 Cr.
Legal Contingencies
No pending material court cases or legal disputes with specified INR values were disclosed in the audit reports for the period ending March 31, 2025.
Risk Analysis
Key Uncertainties
Volatility in raw material prices (polymers/chemicals) and the successful ramp-up of the new Unit 5 facility are the primary business risks.
Geographic Concentration Risk
100% of manufacturing facilities are located in Karnataka (Doddaballapura, Gowribidanur, and Nelamangala), creating high regional concentration risk.
Third Party Dependencies
High dependency on raw material suppliers, as material costs represent nearly 80% of revenue.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Trade payables stood at INR 17.35 Cr as of September 30, 2025, indicating significant credit exposure to suppliers.
