Growth, segment performance, operations, customers and strategic signals across the UFlex platform — resin to retail shelf, in 9 plant countries.
Revenue of ₹15,401 Cr grew 2.4% through the films glut, and with net debt at 4.35× EBITDA the re-rate hinges on revenue quality: value-added & converting mix sits at 33% against the 40% target. Convert the ₹949 Cr weighted pipeline and ₹2,255 Cr of cross-line CPG whitespace into value-added (Asepto, holography, specialty) revenue.
7 of 8 headline metrics improving vs prior · still off target: Revenue from Operations ₹15,401 Cr vs ₹16,500 Cr, Revenue Growth (YoY) 2.4% vs 7.0%, EBITDA Margin (Reported) 12.8% vs 15.0%
