The Foil segment delivered exceptional revenue growth of 89% year-on-year in Q4FY25 and 44% for the full yearFY25, driven by strong demand across all product categories and consistent supply of foil stock from Hindalco,our key supplier.
Our brand, MMP, continues to gain strong traction among foil customers, reinforcing our position as a preferredvendor across diverse customer segments.
Margins have improved, supported by robust demand and the recent withdrawal of export incentives by the ChineseGovernment, which has increased the cost of imports and benefited domestic producers.
