Exports contribute 14% of revenue.

Other growth initiatives include a Sievert joint venture for construction chemicals, a Doffner JV and a newly incorporated Chinese trading subsidiary (Guizhou Twenty Microns). Materials are the dominant cost at 51.7% of revenue, followed by other operating expenses at 25.0% and employee costs at 8.9%. AR · MarketPing reader · 2026-08-02

This document is a statistical summary of publicly filed information and market data, prepared by software from primary sources: SEBI results XBRL filed with BSE and NSE, LODR disclosures, shareholding patterns, exchange price data. It contains no research recommendation, no price target and no opinion on the merits of any security, and is not a research report within the meaning of the SEBI (Research Analysts) Regulations, 2014, Regulation 2(1)(w)(vii). Financial statements are as filed (consolidated where the company files consolidated results). Ratios are computed over filed lines. Where a figure is unavailable the table shows a dash rather than an estimate. The business brief is written by MarketPing's reader from the annual report and checked against it; no figure in a table was generated by a model.
