Management’s comment:

“This has been a steady and profitable quarter for the Company. Despite a marginal dip in topline, we improved our margins significantly, driven by better product mix, tighter cost controls, and rising share of higher-value children’s apparel. Our Q2 EBITDA grew nearly 30% YoY while Net Profit rose 29% YoY, reflecting strong operational efficiency.

FY26 continues to be a year of positive developments for us. We secured multiple sizable orders across India, expanded our presence in key children’s wear clusters, and strengthened engagement with our long-standing customer base that contributes over 90% of revenues. With increasing demand for quality kids garments and our asset-light, job-work-led manufacturing approach, we are well positioned for sustainable growth.

We remain focused on expanding production capabilities, deepening our design-driven offerings, and enhancing brand presence across domestic and export markets.”
