- Consolidated FY25 revenue crossed ₹10,000 crore milestone at ₹10,697 crore, growing 8.9% YoY demonstrating top-line scale
- Q1 FY25 revenue grew 17% YoY to ₹2,588 crore and Q2 FY25 revenue hit a record ₹2,936 crore (up 16% YoY), showing strong demand momentum in the first half
- Management has articulated a long-term target of ₹15,000 crore revenue and 15-16% EBITDA margins by FY27, providing a clear growth roadmap
- Emerging businesses (branded portfolio, flooring) now contribute ~30% of revenue, reducing dependence on commodity export textiles

- TTM sales growth is negative at -11%, reversing the momentum seen in the first half of FY25

- Dividend payout is just 2.89% of profits over 3 years with a dividend yield of only 0.06%, offering negligible income return to shareholders
