Our Company has presence in packing product segment (50 kg and 30kg). We also utilize the by-products and waste materials, such as wheat bran generated during our manufacturing process for cattle feed. This approach ensures that our processing unit operates with zero waste and zero discharge. We currently operate with a modern, integrated flour processing unit equipped with advanced milling and cleaning technology located at Plot No.5, Industrial Area, Apparel Cluster, Bijepur, Indore, Madhya Pradesh-452002 with an installed capacity of 56100 MTPA, where the production of our products is carried out.

We market and sell our products in B2B segment majorly in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka and Gujarat. Our products are sold to Super Stockiests who supplies to wholesalers and further the same is distributed among retailers and to customers who purchase our products in bulk quantity. This model allows us to cater to the needs of large scale buyers and establish long term business relationships.
Wheat, Chana Dal and Maize grains processing into flour involves several key steps. First, harvested grains are cleaned to remove impurities such as stones, chaff, and other foreign materials. The cleaned grains are then tempered with water to achieve the desired moisture content, making it easier to separate the bran and germ from the endosperm. Next, the grains are milled through a series of rollers that progressively break down the grain into finer particles. The endosperm is ground into flour, while the bran and germ are sifted out and collected as by-products. The resulting flour is then subjected to quality control checks to ensure it meets specified standards before packaging and distribution. The by-product of the aforesaid process, primarily wheat bran, is not wasted. Bran, rich in fiber, is often sold as a nutritional supplement for animal feed. The by-products are valuable commodities, generating additional revenue streams and contributing to waste minimization in the wheat processing.
Our Company is also engaged in the business of trading of vegetables such as potatoes and tomatoes. The supply and distribution of vegetables is carried out within the state of Madhya Pradesh. The Company sources these vegetables from suppliers, ensuring good quality and consistent supply. Our operations include procurement, quality control and distribution to meet the needs of market.

? The primary factor contributing to the increase in revenue was the strategic change in the Companys sales approach. Following the business conversion, the Company began conducting sales through super stockists, which has significantly driven the growth in sales during FY 2024-25. The introduction of super stockists allowed the Company to reach a larger and more diverse customer base, streamline distribution, and improve market scope. As a result, the Company experienced a marked increase in sales volumes from these super stockists during FY 2024-25. This contributed ?9,501.66 Lakhs of the total ?17,153.50 Lakhs sales in FY 2024-25, a significant increase from ?766.95 Lakhs in FY 2023-24 as mentioned below,
(? in lakhs)
| Particulars | FY 2024-25 - Amount | FY 2024-25 - % of total revenue from operations | FY 2023-24 - Amount | FY 2023-24 - % of total revenue from operations |
| Sale through Super Stockiest | ||||
| Global Mart | 3,702.40 | 21.58 | 383.10 | 4.34 |
| Metro Enterprises | 3,618.91 | 21.10 | 377.71 | 4.29 |
| Apex India | 2,180.35 | 12.71 | 6.14 | 0.07 |
| Total Sale through Super Stockiest (A) | 9,501.66 | 55.39 | 766.95 | 8.70 |
| Direct Sale to Customer (B) | 7,651.84 | 44.61 | 8,046.03 | 91.30 |
| Total (A+B) | 17,153.50 | 100.00 | 8,812.98 | 100.00 |
? Further, pursuant to the shift in the Companys sales strategy post business conversion, with increased focus on sales through super stockists, the quantum of direct cash sales has reduced. Accordingly, cash sales declined from ?5,139.78 lakhs across 3,685 invoices in FY 2023-24 to ? 3,922.45 lakhs across 2791 invoices in FY 2024-25.
? Further, the company witnessed additional fund infusion in FY 2024-25 by way of preferential issue of share amounting ?292.38 lakhs, additional sanction of an Axis Bank cash credit (CC) facility of ?500.00 lakhs over and above available Canara bank cash credit (CC) facility of ?800.00 and increase in internal accruals due to higher retained earnings. Due to this the company witnessed higher working capital funds during FY 2024-25 which aided meeting higher demand supported by rising profits into the business. The capacity utilization rose from 58.73% to 74.58% during this period.
? The Company commenced trading of vegetables in FY 2024-25, whereas no such activity was undertaken in FY 2023-24. This new line of business contributed ?2,355.08 lakhs to the increase in revenue from operations during the year.
