Delighted to share an update on Krishca Strapping Solutions Limited’s financial performance during H1FY24. We are thrilled to announce that KRISHCA has achieved remarkable revenue of Rs. 4,849.42 Lakhs during H1FY24. Which is nearly 67% of the entire revenue of the FY23. 

We take immense pride in the robust growth achieved in this initial period of FY24. Looking forward to H2FY24, our commitment to delivering an even more impressive performance remains unwavering. We anticipate further enhancements in our financial performance and eagerly embrace the upcoming opportunities.

From an operational perspective, we have made significant strides in fortifying our collaborative relationships with multiple clients, leading to a substantial upsurge in sales volumes. This achievement has not only fueled our sales growth but has also facilitated the acquisition of new clients, reaffirming our dedication to sustained expansion over the course of this half-year.

Our margins have experienced a slight 1% dip in comparison to the previous financial year. This decrease can be attributed to our current phase of aggressive growth and expansion, a strategic move we believe will yield significant long-term benefits. We anticipate that our growth will continue to thrive, with expectations of a substantial 35% – 40% growth rate.
