MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Global Economic Overview

Globally, 2024 has been an eventful year. The year witnessed unprecedented electoral activity on the political front, with more than half of the global population voting in major elections across countries. Meanwhile, adverse developments like the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas conflict increased regional instability.

These events impacted energy and food security, leading to higher prices and rising inflation. Cyberattacks also became more frequent and severe, with growing human and financial consequences due to the increasing digitisation of critical infrastructure. Geopolitical tensions, have reshaped global trade. Geopolitical risks and policy uncertainty, especially around trade policies, have also contributed to increased volatility in global financial markets.

Nonetheless, global economic growth has remained fairly moderate. The global economy grew by 3.3 per cent in 2023. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has projected growth of 3.2 per cent and 3.3 per cent for 2024 and 2025, respectively. Over the next five years, global growth is expected to average around 3.2 per cent, which is modest by historical standards. While the overall global outlook remains steady, growth varies across different regions.

Geopolitical risks remain elevated due to ongoing conflicts, which pose significant risks to the global economic outlook. These risks can influence growth, inflation, financial markets, and supply chains. An intensification of the evolving conflicts in the Middle East, or the Russia-Ukraine conflict, could lead to market repricing of sovereign risk in the affected regions and disrupt global energy markets. The oil market is well-supplied for now. However, any damage to energy infrastructure could tighten supply, adding uncertainty to the global economic outlook.

The overall picture is encouraging. Aggregate GVA surpassed its pre-pandemic trend in Q1 FY25, and it now hovers above the trend in the H1 FY25. The agriculture sector remains strong, consistently operating well above trend levels. The industrial sector has also found its footing above the pre-pandemic trajectory. The robust rate of growth in the recent years has taken the services sector close to its trend levels (Source: Economic Survey 2024-25).

Emerging markets such as China and India are expected to show stronger growth in 2025 and in 2026 despite global uncertainties. Even so, economies are expected to stay resilient by adopting new technologies and implementing strategic policy measures.

Indian Economy Overview

Indias GDP at constant (2011-12) prices grew by 6.7 per cent and 5.4 per cent in Q1 and Q2 FY25, respectively. This implied a real GDP growth of 6.0 per cent in the first half of the current fiscal.

The moderation in real GDP growth can be traced to a softening of growth in Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) from 10.1 per cent in H1 FY24 to 6.4 per cent in H1 FY25. Q1 FY25 witnessed a slowdown in capital expenditure across different levels of government on account of the conduct of the general elections. Private sector investment growth may have remained subdued thus far in FY25 on account of the domestic political timetable, global uncertainties and overcapacities.

An additional reason for the slowdown in capital formation growth in Q2 FY25 may have emanated from the moderation in residential investment by households in this quarter, which is on the back of a sharp uptick over the last few quarters. The slowdown in investment activity is likely temporary.

Green shoots in capital formation are visible. Union government capex is up 8.2 per cent in July - November 2024 and is expected to pick up further pace. As Indias economy continues to expand, the growth process has been ably supported by stability on fronts such as inflation, fiscal health, and balance of payments.

In gauging the health of the global economy, understanding the trends in inflation is essential. While global inflation peaked in 2022 due to supply chain disruptions and geopolitical tensions, it has declined since then, aided by policy measures. In India, retail inflation eased in FY25 due to timely interventions by the government and the Reserve Bank of India. Core inflation reached its lowest point in a decade, while food inflation was affected by supply chain disruptions and adverse weather conditions.

Indias headline inflation, measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), has moderated in FY25 (April-December) compared to FY24. This decline is primarily due to a significant decrease in core inflation, which dropped by 0.9 percentage points between FY24 and FY25 (April-December). The RBI and the IMF have projected that Indias consumer price inflation will progressively align towards the inflation target in FY26.

To realise its economic aspirations of becoming Viksit Bharat by the time of the centenary of independence, India needs to achieve a growth rate of around 8 per cent at constant prices, on average, for about a decade or two. While the desirability of this growth rate is unquestionable, its important to recognise that the global environment- political and economic - will influence Indias growth outcomes. The projections for India from the lens of the World Economic Outlook (WEO) of the International Monetary Fund as recently as October of FY25 are sanguine. The IMF WEO projects India to become a USD 5 trillion economy by FY28 and reach a size of USD 6.307 trillion by FY30. This translates into an annual nominal growth rate of nearly 10.2 per cent in USD terms for FY25 to FY30.2. So, the IMF expects India to grow at a significantly higher rate of 10.2 per cent in dollar terms in the next five years.

It may be emphasised that India has made significant strides in promoting renewable energy and boosting domestic manufacturing of renewable energy equipment through initiatives such as the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme. The PLI scheme aims to enhance Indias manufacturing capabilities in key sectors, including solar panels, wind turbines, and battery storage, by offering incentives to domestic manufacturers. The domestic manufacturing efforts under the PLI scheme are expected to significantly support Indias renewable energy targets by reducing costs, improving energy security, and boosting employment. Domestic capacities are being built. For now, India sources 75 per cent of lithium-ion batteries from China, and it has near negligible production capacity for key components like

polysilicon, ingots, and wafers.

Viksit Bharat@2047 envisions India as a developed nation by 2047, the centenary of our independence. This would entail sustained economic growth of close to 8 per cent every year for at least a decade. To achieve this growth, the investment rate must rise to approximately 35 per cent of GDP, up from the current 31 per cent. Additionally, it will be essential to develop the manufacturing sector further and invest in emerging technologies such as AI, robotics, and biotechnology. India will also need to create 78.5 lakh new non-farm jobs annually till 2030, achieve 100 per cent literacy, develop the quality of our education institutions, and develop high-quality, future-ready infrastructure at scale and speed.

In the global manufacturing space, high-income countries have lost a significant part of their share during the last decade. This was largely gained by the upper middle income countries, mainly based on Chinas strength. The share of lower middle-income economies did not, in general, increase. Yet, India managed to improve its share in the pie and global presence. However, with 2.8 per cent of the global share in manufacturing, compared to Chinas 28.8 per cent, India has a large opportunity to climb up the ladder. India also has a substantial scope to improve the contribution of the industrial sector in GDP in relation to its comparator countries (Source: Economic Survey 2024-25).

Industry Structure and Developments

Recently, the global manufacturing is facing a range of challenges, including persistent supply chain disruptions, political instability, pressure to reduce emissions and move towards renewables, increased logistics costs and other effects of regional conflicts. As a result, the global manufacturing output rose modestly by 0.4 per cent only in the third quarter of 2024, compared to a stronger growth of nearly 1 per cent in the previous quarter. Hence, in a rather unsupportive global environment, it calls for lasting, coordinated efforts from all tiers of government, the private sector, the skilling ecosystem, academia and R&D institutions, as well as financial stakeholders to enable India to realise its ambition as a manufacturing powerhouse.

India holds a fair advantage in production and conversion costs in steel and alumina. Its strategic location enables export opportunities to develop as well as fast-developing Asian markets.

Minerals are precious natural resources that serve as essential raw materials for fundamental industries, so the growth of the mining industry is essential for the overall industrial development of a nation. The vast resources of numerous metallic and non-metallic minerals that India is endowed with serve as a foundation for the expansion and advancement of the nations mining industry. India is largely self-sufficient in metallic minerals including bauxite, chromite, iron ore, and lignite as well as mineral fuels like coal and lignite. The industry has the potential to significantly impact GDP growth, foreign exchange earnings, and give end-use industries like building, infrastructure, automotive, and electricity, among others, a competitive edge by obtaining essential raw materials at reasonable rates.

Rise in infrastructure development and automotive production are driving growth. Power and cement industries are also aiding growth for the sector. Demand for iron and steel is set to continue given the strong growth expectations for the residential and commercial building industry.

Between April 2000-December 2024, FDI inflows in the metallurgical industry stood at 1,10,062 crore (US$ 18.06 billion), followed by the mining 21,525 crore (US$ 3.50 billion), diamond & gold ornaments 8,905 crore (US$ 1.04 billion), and coal production 119 crore (US$ 27.73 million).

Indias iron ore production increased by 0.18% to 277.83 million metric tonnes (MMT) during FY25 compared to 275 MMT in the same period of FY24.

As per data from the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MOSPI), Indias mining GDP increased from 76,877 crore (US$ 9.25 billion) in the third quarter of FY23 to 82,680 crore (US$ 9.95 billion) in the third quarter of FY24.

In September 2022, exports of mica, coal & other ores and minerals including processed minerals stood at US$ 426.32 million exhibiting growth of 7.31% as compared to September 2021.

Iron and steel imports stood at US$ 14.17 billion during April-December 2023.

Indias domestic apparent copper demand is projected to reach 8.8 - 9.8 million tonnes by FY47, with per capita apparent

consumption anticipated to increase from ~1.2 kg in FY24 to 5.4 - 6 kg, reflecting a 4.5 - 5-fold growth over 23 years.

Currently, HCL is the only domestic copper miner in India. However, with new copper blocks being auctioned, long-term domestic copper ore production is projected to reach about 21 MT, meeting only 4.6% of domestic concentrate demand. This limited domestic supply underscores Indias heavy reliance on copper concentrate imports, making the nation vulnerable to external market fluctuations. Additionally, growing challenges such as resource nationalism, geopolitical tensions, declining ore grades, and a persistent lack of investment are likely to disrupt the global copper trade dynamic. These issues could leave India with few viable options to source copper, even from major exporters like Australia, Chile, Peru, and Zambia.

In FY24 (until January 2024), the combined index of eight core industries stood at 156.0 driven by the production of coal, refinery products, fertilizers, steel, electricity, and cement industries.

There is a significant scope for new mining capacities in iron ore, bauxite and coal and considerable opportunities for future discoveries of sub-surface deposits. Infrastructure projects continue to provide lucrative business opportunities for steel, zinc, and aluminium producers. Iron and steel make up a core component for the real estate sector. Demand for these metals is set to continue given strong growth expectations for the residential and commercial building industry.

The Government of India has also helped in the development of the metals and mining sector in India by launching key policy initiatives. The National Mineral Policy, which was approved by the government in February 2019, has ensured improved regulation and enforcement, more transparency, balanced social and economic growth, and sustainable mining techniques. The policy grants industry status to the mining activities and boost private sector funding.

Additionally, it aims to facilitate the merger and acquisition of mining companies, entice private sector involvement in exploration, and permit the transfer of mineral corridors created specifically for metals and mining leases. In the future, both increased domestic demand and exports are projected to play significant roles in driving the industrys expansion and its contribution to GDP growth in a post-covid environment (Source: Economic Survey 2024-25 and https://www.ibef.org/).

Opportunity & Threats

The metal industry is known for being cyclical and reflective of overall market conditions?demand increases during economic booms and plummets during global recessions. The metal industry went through a low demand phase from 2014 to 2016 due to production that exceeded demand. The longevity of steel/metal products could be attributed as one of the reasons for this low demand. The long life of steel/metal products, a minimum of 10 years depending on the product, pushes the industry to go through a cyclic phase once every 5 to 6 years. Chinas overproduction of steel worsened this situation, leading to the country dumping its excess inventories in other countries at low prices as a result of decreased domestic demand.

Anti-dumping tariffs are now being imposed by countries such as Europe and the United States to promote local steel/metal manufacturing. However, there are oppositions to such policies because they could disrupt global trade and relationships.

By 2050, global refined copper demand is expected to reach 53 million tonnes (MT) due to rapid urbanization, infrastructure expansion, and industrialization. In addition to traditional sectors, increased demand is anticipated from renewable energy, EVs, charging infrastructure, and AI. Despite this growing demand, supply is expected to tighten due to factors such as the recent closure of the Cobre Panama mine and Indonesias ban on copper concentrate exports. Additional challenges include declining ore grades, environmental oversight, resource nationalism, and escalated operational costs.

The Company believes that niche opportunities exist in the Global arena which we are targeting to exploit resulting in positive growth. The Company has accordingly built a business model tapping these opportunities and is also aligning its strategies to utilize opportunities in the domestic market. The demand of the Companys products is steadily increasing.

The Company is ready to take the challenges of increased demand by continuously adding capacities, investing in up gradation of its manufacturing capacities and also striving to achieve cost efficiencies. With expanding capacity of existing players and emergence of new entrants, competition is a sustained treat for the business of the Company.

Strategic initiatives to enhance the brand equity through enhanced marketing strategies along with the value add products and services have been the thrust areas of the Company.

Outlook

Looking ahead to 2025, manufacturers are expected to continue to face a challenging and uncertain business climate due to a combination of higher costs, potential policy changes following the US and global elections, and geopolitical uncertainty. Surveyed manufacturers in NAMs 2024 third-quarter outlook expect raw material and other input costs to grow by 2.7% over the next 12 months.

A study showed that 1.9 million manufacturing jobs could go unfilled over the next 10 years if talent challenges are not addressed. The study also found that roles that require higher-level skills could grow the fastest between 2022 and 2032, and that a combination of technical manufacturing, digital, and soft skills will likely be required. As the enthusiasm surrounding gen AI shifts from "...unbridled excitement" to "a more nuanced and critical evaluation of its real impact on business outcomes," manufacturers have already made significant investments in AI and gen AI, and this trend is expected to continue in 2025 and beyond.

Given the need to address elevated material and labor costs, an ongoing skills gap, and potential disruptions from geopolitical factors, investments in digital technologies across manufacturing organizations?in other words, the push toward smart operations?is likely to continue in 2025. Falling interest rates and the potential for growth could even accelerate investment. Manufacturers will likely continue to prioritize investments in their digital core and data foundation that can enable targeted, high-ROI use cases for cutting-edge technologies such as AI, gen AI, and extended reality (XR) (Source: 2025 Manufacturing Industry Outlook).

The profit margins in the industry are under pressure. The Company is confident to meet the challenges with its strength in marketing network, its strategic planning, Research & Development, productivity improvement and cost reduction exercise.

Internal Control System and their Adequecy

The Companys internal control systems are adequate, operating effectively and are commensurate with the size of business and the same is provided through competent management, implementation of standard policies and processes, maintenance of an appropriate audit program with internal control environment, effective risk monitoring and management information systems. Moreover, the Company continuously upgrades these systems in line with the best available practices.

The Board of the Company has constituted an Audit Committee, which is headed by a Non-Executive Independent Director. The Audit Committee periodically reviews internal audit reports and brings to the notice of the Board any significant process deviations.

This growth is attributed to our strategic initiatives / investments and market positioning.

The Company operates in a single segment i.e. manufacturing and trading of copper wire and copper wire rods by recycling of copper scrap and various type of metals, other metallic substances and other related products, the Companys main products are copper wire and copper wire rods and that are ideally suited for a wide array of applications.

Risk and Concern

Global economic uncertainties have affected Indias economy, Key risks synonymous to industry include the global recessionary trend, economic slowdown, increase in financial charges, non availability (or undue increase in cost) of raw materials, such as metal and labour etc., coupled with market fluctuations. The Company does not apprehend any inherent risk in the long run, with the exception of certain primary concerns that have afflicted the progress of our

industry in general, like:

• Shortage of Labour
