2. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANYS OPERATIONS DURING THE YEAR AND FUTURE OUTLOOK

Performance Summary for the Financial Year Ended March 31,2025:

During the year under review, the Company operated across three reportable segments: Textiles, Renewable Energy, and Financing & Investments. The Company recorded a consolidated revenue of ?60,757.57 Lakhs, marking a year-on-year growth of 10.82%. EBITDA stood at ?15,989.52 Lakhs, while Profit Before Tax reached ?5,247.14 Lakhs. Key financial metrics including EBITDA margin, net profit margin, and interest coverage ratio·showed

notable improvement compared to the previous fiscal year.

Segment-Wise Highlights

Textiles Division:

Despite this overall improvement, the Textile Division faced significant challenges. Revenue and margins remained under pressure due to rising input costs, oversupply of yarn, weak exports, muted demand, and inflationary trends. Additionally, global geopolitical disruptions including the Russia - Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas crisis led to supply chain issues, uncertainity and recessionary pressures. Increases in raw material, power, and fuel costs could not be fully passed on to customers, further affecting performance.

On the global front, growth remained stable at ~3.0% during the year. The International Monetary Fund (IMF), in its World Economic Outlook (WEO) July update stated that global inflation is expected to continue to decline, with headline inflation

falling to 4.2 percent in 2025 and 3.6 percent in 2026.While geopolitical risks remain elevated, the Indian textile industry is projected to grow at a 9-10% CAGR by 2030, supported by sustainability, circular economy initiatives, digital transformation, and favorable government policies, including enhanced budget allocations, the Five-Year Cotton Mission, and the PLI Scheme. These factors are expected to attract new investments and support longterm growth.

The Board remains confident of improving the Companys operational performance by leveraging its inherent strengths, strong brand equity in yarn and fabrics, and proactive strategies. Innovative initiatives are underway to enhance the topline through value- added products in the suiting and shirting segment, new business opportunities, and by anticipating improvement in domestic and export demand.

Renewable Energy Division:

The Companys Renewable Energy portfolio comprises a total installed capacity of

107.35 MW, including 32.35 MW of wind energy and 75 MW of solar energy projects located in Rajasthan and Maharashtra. This segment is primarily focused on power generation and sale to state utilities under long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). While power offtake remains secured through these agreements, operational efficiency and optimal generation remain critical to performance.

Financing and Investment Division:

This division is engaged in strategic investments across immovable properties, Shares & Securities, and structured financing. The Company identifies high-potential assets for medium- to long-term investments, realizing gains through timely divestments. Additionally, the Company extends loans and makes investments both within and outside its group entities.

Disclosure of financials performance of above mention reportable segments has been made in the note no. 48 of the Standalone Financial Statements and forms part of the Annual Report.
