Management Commentary

- Operational Milestones:
- Commencement of commercial deliveries from the Surat greenfield facility.
- Achievement of AEO‑T3 certification, enhancing export efficiency through faster customs clearance and improved working‑capital management.
- Brand Performance:
- Ashoka – robust diaspora demand and deeper market penetration.

Strategic & Regulatory Updates
- AEO‑T3 Certification: The new Authorized Economic Operator (AEO‑T3) status is a significant compliance milestone, expected to streamline export processes and reduce logistics costs.
