- Consistent ROE of 16-17% over the last 3-5 years on a nearly debt-free balance sheet reflects strong capital efficiency
- 5-year compounded sales CAGR of 16% (from ₹2,243 Cr in FY22 to ₹3,720 Cr in FY25) shows sustained top-line momentum in a structurally growing Indian dairy market projected at 14% CAGR through 2035
