Management Comments
Mr. Pankaj Poddar
Group CEO, Cosmo First Ltd
For Film business, the Company’s focus remains on specialty film, expanding in international geographies, faster scaling up of new capacities and cost rationalization opportunities. Growth projects (BOPP Film line, CPP line and Sun-control Film) are expected to add to the topline and bottom-line from FY26. In Zigly, we have launched multiple Private labels and enhanced our Vet care services which favourably impacted topline and margins in Q3. The Rigid Packaging vertical shall start making positive EBIDTA from FY26.
