💰 Financial Performance

Revenue Growth by Segment

Consolidated revenue from operations grew 62.4% to INR 3,864.24 Cr in FY25. Acquired entities contributed ~34% of group revenue, while like-for-like pre-acquisition revenue grew 19%. In Q2 FY26, India operations grew 14% YoY, while Africa operations declined 23% YoY.

Geographic Revenue Split

The US retail clothing market is a primary driver, showing strong volume growth in H1 FY25. Africa operations (Kenya/Atraco) contributed significantly but faced a 23% volume decline in Q2 FY26 due to AGOA rollover uncertainty.

Profitability Margins

FY25 PAT margin was 4.0%, a drop of 139 bps from 5.4% in FY24. H1 FY26 PAT was INR 8 Cr, down 71% YoY from INR 28 Cr, primarily due to US tariff impacts of INR 39 Cr and higher finance costs.

EBITDA Margin

FY25 EBITDA margin was 10.8%, down 97 bps YoY. H1 FY26 adjusted EBITDA margin (excluding US tariff impact) was 12.2%, compared to 12.1% in H1 FY25.

Capacity Expansion

Current expansion focused on the Madhya Pradesh unit and newly acquired entities. H1 FY26 capex of INR 110 Cr was dedicated to capacity increases to maintain business momentum.
