Profitability Margins
EBITDA margin declined from 11.1% in FY24 to 9.5% in FY25. PAT margin decreased from 4.1% in FY24 to 3.2% in FY25. These declines were driven by lower volume offtake and increased input costs, particularly imported fiber.

Maintains ISO 14001:2015 (Environment) and ISO 45001:2018 (Safety) certifications across all plants and the head office.
Risk Analysis
Key Uncertainties
The primary uncertainty is the potential for a regulatory ban on asbestos products, which could impact up to 86% of revenue if not mitigated by the shift to non-asbestos lines.
Geographic Concentration Risk
High concentration in Western India (Maharashtra and Gujarat), though expansion into East and North India is underway to diversify.
Third Party Dependencies
High dependency on international suppliers for asbestos fiber imports.
Technology Obsolescence Risk
Risk of traditional roofing sheets being replaced by newer, non-asbestos or alternative building technologies.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Receivables quality is supported by a large, fragmented dealer network, reducing individual counterparty risk.
