This performance reflects strong execution, improving operating leverage, and sustained demand across our businesses, resulting in our strongest-ever quarterly and full-year performance.
During the quarter, we commenced the development Program for nitrile female condoms, entering a premium segment which has historically been supplied by a single global manufacturer. Backed by our dual polymer manufacturing capability, we are uniquely positioned as the only manufacturer in India with the ability to produce both latex and nitrile condoms, with a planned capacity of ~1.25 billion male condoms and ~125 million female condoms annually.
We have also strengthened our global positioning through our ‘Made in India with Japanese Quality’ initiative, supported by our collaboration with one of Asia’s oldest condom manufacturers, reinforcing our focus on quality and technological excellence.
In diagnostics, we further strengthened our regulatory portfolio during FY26 with the receipt of CE EU IVDR certification for our HIV and Hepatitis B test kits, along with CE certification for our Syphilis and Pregnancy test kits. These approvals collectively enhance our access to regulated markets such as Europe while strengthening our participation in global public health programs.
On the domestic front, our strategic investment of₹331.53 Cr in Baazar Style Retail significantly strengthens our FMCG distribution. We have already deployed₹82.88 Cr, providing access to a retail network of over 260 stores, which is expected to scale beyond 500 stores over the next 2 to 3 years. This ecosystem is expected to generate ~₹150 Cr incremental revenue in FY27 and scale up to ~₹500 Cr annually over the medium term, while significantly improving our brand visibility and last mile reach.
Looking ahead, with strong export momentum, a favorable currency environment, and a well-secured raw material position, we are confident of sustaining this growth trajectory and achieving our FY27 revenue target of ₹600 Cr with net margins above 30%, as we continue to build a scalable and globally competitive business.”
