Management Commentary & Growth Outlook
Why Losses Are Elevated: Revenue grew but reported loss is larger due to well-understood drivers that are largely one-time or plant related, not core demand issues
Manufacturing/Plant (₹3 Cr impact): In-house production currently carries higher cost than market, plant-level operating losses during transition year, legacy lines being phased out for leaner model
One-off & Non-cash Items (₹3 Cr impact): Clearance of old/slow-moving stock at discount, inventory and packaging write-offs (one-time clean-up), project development costs
