1. State of the company's affair

During FY 24-25, the Indian economy is expected to demonstrate robust growth, continuing its recovery from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The GDP is projected to grow at a rate of approximately 7.0%, driven by a combination of strong domestic consumption, increased government spending on infrastructure, and a rebound in the services and manufacturing sectors. The agricultural sector is also anticipated to perform well, contributing to rural income growth and overall economic stability.

Additionally, the implementation of various economic reforms and digital initiatives is likely to enhance productivity and efficiency across industries. While challenges such as inflationary pressures and global economic uncertainties remain, India's diversified economic base and proactive policy measures are expected to sustain its growth trajectory, solidifying its position as one of the fastest-growing major economies in the world. The circular economy model, which focuses on minimizing waste and maximizing the reuse, recycling, and regeneration of materials, is gaining significant traction in India.

The country's market size for circular economy activities is substantial and rapidly expanding, driven by its large population and diverse industrial base. India's role in the global circular economy is pivotal, with major strides in sectors such as e-waste management, plastic recycling, and sustainable agricultural practices. Government initiatives, like the Swachh Bharat Mission and policies promoting Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), have accelerated the adoption of circular economy principles. The private sector is also increasingly embracing sustainable practices, with companies investing in advanced recycling technologies and innovative resource management strategies. As India continues to develop its circular economy, it not only addresses critical environmental challenges but also creates economic opportunities, fosters innovation, and enhances resource security, positioning itself as a key player in the global shift towards sustainable development. With these opportunities at hand, your Company is strategically positioned to take advantage of the upcoming prospects in the recycling industry. The Company has delivered a robust performance during the Financial Year 2023-24.
