BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a manufacturer of multiple grades of custom formulated polymer compounds, catering to diversified critical industries such as telecommunication, power, railways, water, oil and gas distribution, among others. Polymer compounds are used as an essential raw material for sheathing, jacketing and insulation of wires and cables used in power, telecommunication and railway industries as well as coating of underground oil, gas and water pipelines, in order to provide a protective infrastructure from corrosion and external environmental factors. (Source: CRISIL Report) Our product portfolio is well diversified to offer varied solutions in the wire and cables and infrastructure industry, and included products such as, high density polyethylene compounds ("HDPE"), medium-density polyethylene compounds ("MDPE") and linear low-density polyethylene compounds
(" LLDPE"), cross-linked polyethylene compounds ("XLPE"), halogen free flame retardant compounds
("HFFR"), polyvinyl chloride compounds ("PVC"), cable filling compounds ("CFC") and adhesive coating compounds. HDPE, MDPE and LLDPE compounds are used in the wire and cable industry which offer insulation, sheathing and jacketing based on the indicative requirement of the customer. While, XLPE, HFFR, PVC and CFC compounds add qualities such as strength, high voltage insulation and resistance, fire resistance and moisture resistance, as per the application of the end use product. In the wire and cable industry, polymers serve crucial functions in electrical insulation, mechanical protection, and overall cable performance. HDPE and adhesive coating compounds are key layers of 3LPE (three layer polyethylene) system ("3LPE Coating" i.e. Pipe Coating) used for coating of oil, gas and water distribution pipelines. 3LPE Coating is an effective solution for protecting high-capital-intensive pipelines from corrosion, chemicals and moisture, thereby ensuring long-term durability.

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE LAST REPORTING PERIOD:
In the opinion of the Board of Directors of our Company, there have not arisen, since the date of March 31, 2025 as disclosed in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, any significant developments or any circumstance that materially or adversely affect or are likely to affect the profitability of our Company or the value of its assets or its ability to pay its material liabilities within the next twelve months.
KEY FACTORS AFFECTING THE RESULTS OF OPERATION:
Our Companys future results of operations could be affected potentially by the following factors:
1. During the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, we derived 81.59%, 80.49% and 94.32% of our revenue from the sale of wire and cable polymer compounds. Any loss of sales due to reduction in demand for such products would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We are a manufacturer of multiple grades of custom formulated polymer compounds, catering to diversified critical industries such as telecommunication, power, railways, water, oil and gas distribution, among others. Polymer compounds are used as an essential raw material for sheathing, jacketing and insulation of wires and cables used in power, telecommunication and railway industries as well as coating of underground oil, gas and water pipelines, in order to provide a protective infrastructure from corrosion and external environmental factors. (Source: CRISIL Report) We rely heavily on revenue generated from the sale of polymer compounds used in the wire and cable industries, therefore any reduction in the demand of our products or any downturn in the wire and cable industries, may have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In the wire and cable industry, polymers serve crucial functions in electrical insulation, mechanical protection, and overall cable performance. (Source: CRISIL Report) Therefore, the success of our products and of our business is dependent upon the success of the wire and cable industries and on the performance of the products of our customers, who are engaged in manufacturing wires and cables. Our success is also dependent upon our ability to diversify and grow our operations, retain our existing customers and expand our customer base. In the event, we are unable to scale our operations or retain or grow our wire and cable customers, our revenue from operations and cash flow may experience a decline. There is no assurance that we will not face any such decline in sale of our wire and cable polymer compounds in the future. The table below set out the revenue from operations earned from our product categories for the period indicated below:
| Product | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | Fiscal 2023 | |||
| Categories | ( in lakhs) | % of total sales | ( in lakhs) | % of total sales | ( in lakhs) | % of total sales |
| Wire & | 26,798.20 | 81.59% | 23,852.98 | 80.49% | 29,674.52 | 94.32% |
| Cables | ||||||
| Pipelines | 6,045.39 | 18.41% | 5,782.85 | 19.51% | 1,787.09 | 5.68% |
In the event, there takes place a shift of practice, wherein the end use customers integrate their operations by setting up manufacturing units for manufacturing the required raw materials, it may have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations. It may also happen that our competitors are able to improve the efficiency of their manufacturing process and thereby offer similar or high quality products at competitive prices. While the aforementioned events have not materially occurred in the past, however upon occurrence of any such events, our Company may be unable to adequately react to such developments which may affect our revenues and profitability. In order to mitigate the risk relating to dependency on wire and cable compounds, we have strategically diversified our product portfolio by developing polyethylene pipe coating and adhesives for 3LPE applications. The revenue earned from such products increased from 5.68% in Fiscal 2023 to 18.41% in Fiscal 2025, indicating the successful diversification of our product portfolio. Any failure to successfully expand and diversify our operations, could adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
2. Our inability to meet the preferences or consistent quality requirements of our customers or our inability to accurately predict and successfully adapt to changes in market demand could reduce demand for our products and harm our sales.
Our results of operations and future growth are largely dependent upon the demand for our products in the Indian and other international markets in which we are currently present and propose to expand to. Demand for our products depends primarily on consumer-related factors such as demographics, local preferences, lifestyle preferences and macroeconomic factors such as the condition of the economy and the level of consumer confidence. Over a period of time, there have been significant changes in consumers preferences relating to polymer products in Indian as well as overseas market. There has been a shift towards specialized polymers, such as PE compounds, XLPE compounds and HFFR compounds, in recent times. The polymer market is currently moving toward the design, manufacture and use of efficient, effective, safe and more environmentally friendly chemical products and processes. Our management team tracks the trend of our product portfolio and accordingly plans the supply of our products on that basis. Therefore, an unanticipated change in customer demand may adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition as a result of the operating expenses that are relatively fixed and have been incurred by us.
We may be also subject to the policies and guidelines of the countries or regions where our customers are located, relating to the quantity, quality, characteristics and variety of the products sold to such countries, which may be changed from time to time. Any non-compliance with such policies and quality standards could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, reputation and results of operation. While we attempt to, on a regular basis, keep pace with the preferences and quality requirements and standards of our domestic and international customers, provide the desired quality product, and continually monitor and adapt to the changing market demand there can be no assurance that we will be able to keep up with the changing trends and adhere to all quality specifications mandated by governmental agencies. Any such change in preferences or our inability to meet the consistent quality requirements of our customers or adhere to the quality standards mandated by the government agencies and regulators could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
3. Pricing pressure from customers may affect our gross margin, profitability and ability to increase our prices, which in turn may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Being in a competitive market, we face pricing pressures from our customers. Accordingly, polymer manufacturers like us must be able to reduce our operating costs in order to maintain profitability. Such price reductions may affect our sales and profit margins. If we are unable to offset customer price reductions in the future through improved operating efficiencies, new manufacturing processes, sourcing alternatives or other cost reduction initiatives, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. Our customers also negotiate for larger discounts in price as the volume of their orders increase. To maintain our profit margins, we seek price reductions from our suppliers, improved production processes to increase manufacturing efficiency to reduce costs. There can be no assurance that we will be able to avoid future customer price reductions or offset the impact of any such price reductions through continued technology improvements, improved operational efficiencies, cost-effective sourcing alternatives, new manufacturing processes, cost reductions or other productivity initiatives. While, we have been able to successfully pass on the increased costs of raw materials to our customers in the past, we cannot assure you that we shall be able to do the same in the future as well, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
4. Our proposed capacity expansion plans are subject to the risk of unanticipated delays in implementation and cost overruns.
Based on the expected potential growth in the polymer industry and the consequent increase in demand for our products in the recent years, we anticipate an increase in the production capacity. In order to support our growth strategy across India, we intend to increase the installed capacity of our existing Manufacturing Facility. As we continue our growth by investing in the capacity expansion of our Manufacturing Facility, we may encounter regulatory, personnel and other difficulties that may increase our expenses, which could delay our plans or impair our ability to become profitable in these areas. For details of the proposed expansion, please refer to the chapter titled "Objects of the Issue Financing the capital expenditure requirement towards expansion of our Manufacturing Facility by increasing the manufacturing capacity of certain of our existing products" on page 117 of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. There can be no assurance that the proposed capacity additions and expansion will be completed as planned within the cost estimates and in a timely manner, or at all. Any shortfall in our net owned funds, internal accruals and our inability to raise debt in future would result in us being unable to meet our capital requirements, which in turn will negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. Further, we have not identified any alternate source of funding and hence any failure or delay on our part to raise money from this issue or any shortfall in the issue proceeds may delay the implementation schedule and could adversely affect our growth plans. Further, the estimated schedule completion dates are based on estimates, and we cannot assure you that such proposed expansion will culminate into production on schedule. There can be no assurance that such plans will be successfully implemented or completed or that if completed, they will result in the anticipated growth in our revenues or improvement in the results of operations we anticipate from the implementation of such initiatives.
5. We are in the process of expanding our operations and establishing a network of distributors & customers in regions where we do not have a significant presence or prior experience. Any failure to expand into these new regions could adversely affect our sales, financial condition, result of operations and cash flows.
In order to cater to the growing market demand for our products, specifically for adhesives for 3LPE applications, and expand our presence in new regions, we are in the process of deepening our presence in the Middle Eastern region. We have recently entered into a service agreement with a marketing and distribution company in UAE for obtaining advisory and support services for selling certain of our products in Egypt, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar. We aim to leverage the increasing demand from international markets to enhance our exports. Due to our lack familiarity with the economic conditions of the Middle Eastern region. Fluctuations in the local economy, currency exchange rates, and regulatory environment can pose risks to our operations and financial stability. Without an established customer and distributor network or end customer base in these regions, we face uncertainty regarding the demand for our products. It may take considerable time and resources to build relationships and gain market acceptance, potentially delaying the realization of sales volume. Further, our products may not gain market acceptance or meet the specific requirements of customers in these new markets and regions. Adapting our offerings to local preferences, regulatory standards, and customer needs can be complex and may require additional investments and resources. This could lead to lower product pricing as we struggle to establish ourselves and higher expenditure on reputation building, impacting our profitability. If we fail to successfully navigate these challenges and establish a strong presence in the new regions, our sales, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be significantly and adversely affected.

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
"The preparation of financial information in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and the accompanying disclosures. Uncertainty about the assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require in material adjustment to the carrying value of assets or liabilities affected in future periods. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected."
Going Concern
The Company has prepared the financial information on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern.
Summary of Material accounting policies
Current and non-current classification
"The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is treated as current when it is: - Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle - Held primarily for the purpose of trading - Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or - Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period All other assets are classified as non-current. Liability is current when - It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle - Held primarily for the purpose of trading - It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
- There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities"
Foreign currencies
The Companys financial information is presented in INR, which is also the Companys functional currency
Transactions and balances
"Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company at functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in OCI, or profit or loss are also recognised in OCI or profit or loss, respectively)."
Fair value presentation
"The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date except to certain instruments which are measured at Amortised cost/historic cost. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either: - In the principal market for the asset or liability, or - In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company." "The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participants ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial information are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: - Level 1 Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
- Level 2 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
- Level 3 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable." For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial information on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
Revenue from contract with Customer
"Revenue from sale of goods are recognised upon satisfaction of performance obligation which is at a point in time, generally on delivery of the goods, when control of the goods is transferred to customers. Revenue from services are recognised upon satisfaction of performance obligation towards rendering of such services. The Company recognises revenue from sale of goods or services at the amount of transaction price (excluding variable consideration that is constrained), that is allocated to the performance obligation satisfied. Transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects it to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
An amount of consideration can vary because of discounts, rebates, incentives etc. which are explicitly stated in the contract or are as per customary business practices. The consideration can also vary where the entitlement is contingent on occurrence or non-occurrence of a future event. The Company includes variable consideration as part of transaction price only to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Variable consideration is estimated using the expected value method or the most likely amount depending on which method the Company expects to better predict the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled and is applied consistently throughout the contract. Payment terms agreed with a customer are as per business practice and the financing component, if significant, is separated from the transaction price and accounted as interest income / expense, as applicable."
Interest income
For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR). EIR is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. Interest income is included in finance income in the income statement.
Taxes
Tax expense represents Current tax and Deferred tax. "Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit before tax as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. Current tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate." "Deferred tax Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits (including MAT credit) and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets (including MAT credit available) is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Def erred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity).
Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority"
Property, plant and equipment(including Capital work in progress)
"Under the previous GAAP (IGAAP), property, plant and equipment were carried out in the balance sheet at cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any as at March 31, 2023. The company has elected to regard those values of property as deemed cost at the date of the transition to Ind AS, i.e., April 1 ,2023. Property, Plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the plant and equipment and borrowing costs for long-term construction projects if the recognition criteria are met. Such properties are classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use. Capital work in progress is stated at cost. When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. The present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met." Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis Depreciation on PPE is provided as per Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013 on Straight Line Method over its economic useful life of PPE as follows:
| Assets | Useful life |
| Plant & Machinery | 5 -15 Years |
| Vehicle | 8 Years |
| Office Equipments | 5 Years |
| Computer | 3 Years |
| Furniture & Fixtures | 10 Years |
| Leasehold Improvements | 3 Years |
| Building | 5 -30 Years |
Intangible assets
"Under the previous GAAP, Intangible assets were carried in the balance sheet at cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any as at March 31, 2023. The company has elected to regard those values of intangible assets as deemed cost at the date of the transition to Ind AS, i.e., April 1, 2023. Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful economic life and are assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired."
| Assets | Useful life |
| Computer Software | 5 Years |
Leases
"In accordance with Ind AS 101- ""First-time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards"", the company has measured lease liability at the date of transition to Ind AS at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at the date of transition to Ind AS. The company has measured a right-of-use asset at the date of transition to Ind AS at it carrying amount as if Ind AS 116 had been applied since the commencement date of the lease, but discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at the date of transition to Ind AS. The Company assesses that the contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (1) The contract involves the use of an identified asset, (2) The Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset, and (3) The Company has the right to direct the use of the identified asset."
Company as a lessee
The Company recognises right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use asset is depreciated from the commencement date over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognised in the statement of profit and loss. "The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate. For leases with reasonably similar characteristics, the Company adopts the incremental borrowing rate for the entire portfolio of leases as a whole. The lease payments shall include fixed payments, variable lease payments, exercise price of a purchase option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments. The Company recognises the amount of the remeasurement of lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Where the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognises any remaining amount of the re-measurement in statement of profit and loss." The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The lease payments associated with these low value leases are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Company as a lessor
Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is classified as operating leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Companys net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease
Inventory
"Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows: -Raw materials: cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on first in, first out basis.
-Finished goods and work in progress: cost includes cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on the normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. Cost is determined on first in, first out basis. -Traded goods: cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on First in, first out basis. Initial cost of inventories includes the transfer of gains and losses on qualifying cash flow hedges, recognised in OCI, in respect of the purchases of raw materials Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale Obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories are identified at the time of physical verification of inventories and where necessary, the same are written off or provision is made for such inventories based on managements best estimates of net realisable value."
Provisions General
"Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources would be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed."
Contingent Assets/ Liabilities
"Contingent assets are not recognised. However, when realisation of income is virtually certain, the related asset is no longer a contingent asset and is recognised as an asset. Contingent liabilities are disclosed in notes to accounts when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future event not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made."
Retirement and other employee benefits
Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund is a defined contribution scheme. The Company has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. The Company recognises contribution payable to the provident fund scheme as an expense, when an employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognised as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the balance sheet date, then excess is recognised as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment. Retirement benefit in the form of gratuity is a defined benefit scheme. Gratuity liability of employees is accounted for on the basis of actuarial valuation on projected unit credit method at the close of the year.
Companys contribution made to Life Insurance Corporation is expensed off at the time of payment of premium. "Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability, are recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in profit or loss on the earlier of: - The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and - The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability. The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement of profit and loss: - Service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non-routine settlements; and - Net interest expense or income" Short-term and other long-term employee benefits "A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries in the period the related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service. Liabilities recognised in respect of short term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service. Liabilities recognised in respect of other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows expected to be made by the Company in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date." Provision for Margin on Finished Goods in Transit represents the estimated profit element on goods invoiced but not yet delivered. The provision is reversed in the subsequent financial period upon delivery. Financial instruments A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Initial recognition
All financial assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, that are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted for at trade date.
Subsequent measurement
Non-derivative financial instruments
Financial assets carried at amortised cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Company has made an irrevocable election for its investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income based on its business model. Further, in cases where the Company has made an irrevocable election based on its business model, for its investments which are classified as equity instruments, the subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration recognized in a business combination which is subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Derecognition of financial instruments
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Companys balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date. The methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.
Impairment Financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Cash Flow Statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
Earnings per share (EPS)
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Equity shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of Equity shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential Equity shares into Equity shares.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) expenditure
CSR Expenditure as per provisions of section 135 of the Act read with rules issued thereunder, is charged to the statement of profit and loss as an expense.
Segment Reporting
The accounting policies adopted by the Company for segment reporting are in line with the Indian accounting standard on Segmental Reporting.
Primary Segment
The Company has two reportable segment Viz. Polymer and Trading, which have been identified in line with the Indian Accounting standard 108 on Segment Reporting, considering the organizational structure as well as differential risk and return of these segments.
Secondary Segment
The secondary segment is based on geographical demarcation i.e. India and rest of the world.

The company achieved a PAT margin of 6.44% in FY 2025 compared to 2.54% in FY 2024, representing an improvement of 3.90%. This enhancement can be primarily attributed to increased revenue from operations during the year, coupled with a lower cost of procurement of materials and improvement in margins on some of our products. This can be attributed to our strategic procurement approach: by sourcing key raw materials from a select group of suppliers, we leverage higher volumes to negotiate better rates and ensure consistent input quality; by monitoring market trends, we flexibly switch between domestic and international markets to minimize costs and optimize operations; by maintaining advance stocks, we meet our customers tight delivery schedules; and, when appropriate, we opportunistically sell excess inventory to capitalize on arbitrage opportunities without disrupting our normal production. Of the 1,354.50 lakhs profit improvement, the primary contribution came from our cost of material consumed, which decreased from 84.67% of total revenue in FY 2024 to 80.97% in FY 2025. This indicates that we were able to procure materials at a lower price in FY 2025 compared to FY 2024. Due to this reason, we were able to save in our material cost off about 3.70% and in value terms around 1,214.91 lakhs. Given below is the working for change in cost of materials consumed:

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The activities of the Company expose it to a number of financial risks namely market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company seeks to minimize the potential impact of unpredictability of the financial markets on its financial performance. The Company does regularly monitor, analyse and manage the risks faced by the Company and to set and monitor appropriate risk limits and controls for mitigation of the risks.
A. MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises of two types of risks: interest rate risk and currency rate risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes borrowings and investments. The Company has international trade operations and is exposed to a variety of market risks, including currency and interest rate risks.
(i) Management of interest rate risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Companys borrowing with floating interest rates. The Company constantly monitors the credit markets and rebalances its financing strategies to achieve an optimal maturity profile and financing cost
| March 2025 | Floating Rate borrowings | Fixed rate borrowings | Non-Interest- bearing borrowings | Total Borrowings |
| Financial Liabilities (borrowings) | 7,091.86 | 300.37 | - | 7,392.23 |
| March 2024 | Floating Rate borrowings | Fixed rate borrowings | Non-Interest- bearing borrowings | Total Borrowings |
| Financial Liabilities (borrowings) | 7,601.08 | 532.33 | 346.76 | 8,480.17 |
| March 2023 | Floating Rate borrowings | Fixed rate borrowings | Non-Interest- bearing borrowings | Total Borrowings |
| Financial Liabilities (borrowings) | 7,459.70 | 730.10 | 770.17 | 8,959.97 |
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings affected, after the impact of hedge accounting. With all other variables held constant, the Companys profit before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:
| Particulars | As At March 31, 2025 | As At March 31, 2024 | As at March 31, 2023 |
| 1% Increase in (in Interest rates) | 70.92 | 76.01 | 74.60 |
| 1% decrease in (in Interest rates) | (70.92) | (76.01) | (74.60) |
(ii) Management of currency risk:
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company has foreign currency trade receivables and is therefore exposed to foreign exchange risk. The Company mitigates the foreign exchange risk by setting appropriate exposure limits, periodic monitoring of the exposures etc. The exchange rates have been volatile in the recent years and may continue to be volatile in the future. Hence the operating results and financials of the Company may be impacted due to volatility of the rupee against foreign currencies.

MANAGEMENT OF CREDIT RISK
"Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligations by a counterparty to the Company resulting in a financial loss to the Company. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (trade receivables) and foreign exchange transactions and financial instruments.
Credit risk from trade receivables is managed through the Companys policies, procedures and controls relating to customer credit risk management by establishing credit limits, credit approvals and monitoring creditworthiness of the customers to which the Company extends credit in the normal course of business. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. The Company has no concentration of credit risk as the customer base is widely distributed. The Companys historical experience of collecting receivables and the level of default indicate that credit risk is low and generally uniform across markets; consequently, trade receivables are considered to be a single class of financial assets. All overdue customer balances are evaluated taking into account the age of the dues, specific credit circumstances, the track record of the counterparty etc. Loss allowances and impairment is recognised, where considered appropriate by responsible management."
Cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits
Credit risk related to cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits is managed by only accepting highly rated banks and diversifying bank deposits and accounts in different banks.
Trade Receivables
Trade receivables are generally unsecured and non-interest bearing. There is no significant concentration of credit risk. The Companys credit risk management policy in relation to trade receivables involves periodically assessing the financial reliability of customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors. The utilization of credit limits regularly monitored. The Companys credit risks mainly confined to the risk of customers defaulting against credit sales made. Outstanding trade receivables are regularly monitored by credit monitoring Company. In respect of trade receivables, the Company recognises a provision for lifetime expected credit losses after evaluating the individual probabilities of default of its customers which are duly based on the inputs received from the marketing teams of the Company. Other financial assets measured at amortised cost loans and other financial assets are considered to have low credit risks since there is a low risk of default by the counter parties owing to their strong capacity to meet contractual cash flow obligations in the near term. Credit risk related to these other financial assets is managed by monitoring the recoverability of such amounts continuously, while at the same time internal control system in place ensure the amounts are within defined limits

Company provides for expected credit losses on loans other than trade receivables by assessing individual financial instruments for expectation of any credit losses. - For cash & cash equivalents, other bank balances and derivative financial instruments-Since the Company deals with only high-rated banks and financial institutions, credit risk in respect of cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments, other bank balances and bank deposits is evaluated as very low. - For loans comprising security deposits paid - Credit risk is considered low because the Company is in possession of the underlying asset. - For other financial assets Credit risk is evaluated based on Company knowledge of the credit worthiness of those parties and loss allowance is measured. For such financial assets, the Company policy is to provide for 12 month expected credit losses up on initial recognition and provide for lifetime expected credit losses upon significant increase in credit risk.

Fair value measurement
Fair value of the financial instruments is classified in various fair value hierarchies based on the following three levels: Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in an active market. Level 2: Directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices) observable market inputs, other than Level 1 inputs; and. Level 3: Inputs which are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part using a net asset value or valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.
