Towards the end for FY 2022-23 we have undergone the training program organized by Solidarid Regional Expertise Centre to optimize consumption of natural resources (Water & Energy), to further reduce consumption of hazardous chemicals in production activity and development of EMC (Environment Management Cell) which helped us to optimize our production processes which leads to optimum utilization of resources and optimization of cost of goods sold.
Additionally, we have undergone some more changes in our production process as follows:
We have installed following machineries and equipments which leads to improvement in performance of machineries. All these items were installed in our polishing and finishing machines. These items helped in increasing the speed of our finishing machines which reduced production lead time and It further helped us to reduce the power and fuel consumption. All this developments lead to reduction in production cost.
The details of equipments and machineries are as follows: a) Inovance 10 H.P. New Drive b) Ledger Blade c) Heater Rod 1700 Watt d) Washing Sensor e) Brushing Fillet Straight (94 meter) f) Brushing Fillet Angular (100 meter)
Also, we have requested for the chartered engineer certificate to analyze and certify the improved capacity due to installation of above machineries and equipments. Earlier 4 rolls of 100 meters each were sent for drying (dryer machine runs on fuel) in one lot. Now, 4 rolls of 134 meters each are sent for drying. We designed a trolley system that could accommodate these 4 rolls of 134 meters in one lot. Now, 528 meters of fabric is dried at the same cost as compared to 400 meters of fabric earlier. Following are the pictures of old and new trolleys:

Financial Market Risks
Market risk is the risk of loss related to adverse changes in market prices, including interest rate risk. We are exposed to interest rate risk, inflation and credit risk in the normal course of our business.
Interest Rate Risk
Our financial results are subject to changes in interest rates, which may affect our debt service obligations and our access to funds.
Effect of Inflation
We are affected by inflation as it has an impact on the raw material cost, wages, etc. In line with changing inflation rates, we rework our margins so as to absorb the inflationary impact.
Credit Risk
We are exposed to credit risk on monies owed to us by our customers. If our customers do not pay us promptly, or at all, we may have to make provisions for or write-off such amounts.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT THE RESULTS OF THE OPERATIONS
Unusual or infrequent events or transactions
There are no transactions or events, which in our best judgment, would be considered unusual or infrequent that have significantly affected operations of the Company.
Significant economic changes that materially affected or are likely to affect income from continuing operations
There are no significant economic changes that materially affected Companys operations or are likely to affect income from continuing operations. Any slowdown in the growth of Indian economy or future volatility in global commodity prices, could affect the business including the future financial performance, shareholders funds and ability to implement strategy and the price of the Equity Shares.
Known trends or uncertainties that have had or are expected to have a material adverse impact on sales, revenue or income from continuing operations
Other than as disclosed in the chapter titled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 34 of this Red Herring Prospectus to our knowledge, there are no known trends or uncertainties that have or had or are expected to have a material adverse impact on revenues or income of our Company from continuing operations.
Future changes in relationship between costs and revenues in case of events such as future increase in labour or material cost or prices that will cause material change
According to our knowledge, there are no future relationship between cost and income that would be expected to have a material adverse impact on our operations and revenues. However, increase in the cost of the goods in which the Company deals, will affect the profitability of the Company. Further, the Company may not be able to pass on the increase in prices of the services to the customers in full and this can be offset through cost reduction.
The extent to which material increases in net sales or revenue are due to increased sales volume, introduction of new products or services or increased prices
The increase in revenue is by and large linked to increase in volume of all the activities carried out by the Company.
Total turnover of each major industry segment in which the Issuer Company operates
Our Company is primarily engaged manufacturing and suppliers of bedding essentials, specializing in blankets, bed sheets, comforters, and more.
Relevant industry data, as available, has been included in the chapter titled "Industry Overview" beginning on page 107 of this Red Herring Prospectus.
Competitive Conditions
We have competition with domestic and international bedding essentials manufacturers who may vertically integrate their supply chains by acquiring or establishing their own distribution operation which reduces the need for independent distributors and create additional competition in the market. We expect competition to intensify due to possible new entrants in the market, existing competitors further expanding their operations and our entry into new markets where we may compete with well-established unorganized companies/ entities. This we believe may impact our financial condition and operations. For details, please refer to the chapter titled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 34 of this Red Herring Prospectus.
The extent to which business is seasonal:
The business of manufacturing blankets and comforters is highly seasonal, with demand peaking during the winter months. As temperatures drop, consumers actively seek warm bedding, leading to increased sales. Conversely, demand declines in warmer months when such products are less needed. This seasonality affects production planning, inventory management, and cash flow, necessitating strategic approaches to align with consumer purchasing behaviours.
Any significant dependence on a single or few suppliers or customers
We depend on external suppliers for all the raw materials required and typically purchase raw materials on a purchase order basis and place such orders with them in advance based on our projected requirements. As a result, the success of our business is significantly dependent on maintaining good relationships with our suppliers. The absence of long-term supply contracts subjects us to risks such as price volatility caused by various factors viz. commodity market fluctuations, currency fluctuations, climatic and environmental conditions, transportation cost, changes in domestic regulatory changes and trade sanctions. If we cannot fully offset the increase in raw material prices with an increase in the prices for our products, we will experience lower profit margins, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, and financial condition and ultimately lead to a liquidity crunch. In the absence of such contracts, we are also exposed to the risk of unavailability of raw materials in desired quantities and qualities, in a timely manner.
Increase in income
Increases in our income are due to the factors described above in in this chapter under "Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations" and chapter titled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 34 of this Red Herring Prospectus.
Status of any Publicly Announced New Business Segments
Except as disclosed elsewhere in the Red Herring Prospectus, we have not announced and do not expect to announce in the near future any new business segment
