Dear Sir/Madam,
Yours truly,

Media Release
Solar Industries India Limited (SIIL), today announced its audited financial
results for the quarter & year ended March 31st,2024.
Commenting on the Quarter & Yearly results, Mr. Manish Nuwal, Managing
Director & CEO, Solar Industries India Limited said that “We are pleased to close
FY24 with the highest ever quarterly and yearly profits at ₹243 cr & ₹875 cr
respectively. The turnover of the company stands at ₹1611 cr & ₹6070 cr for the
quarter & year. In FY 2024, better performance in domestic business and increased
defence sales, helped us to expand our margins resulting in the highest ever EBITDA & PAT
in absolute terms for the year at ₹1414 cr & ₹875 cr. These results are being achieved
despite the losses from currency fluctuations and hyper inflationary conditions causing
revenue loss of around ₹300 cr+ in the quarter & ₹900 cr + in year and EBIDTA loss of
additional ₹40 cr in the quarter & ₹150 cr in the year as compared to previous year. This
kind of performance reflects the strength of the company & its management.”
He added, “We are further satisfied in sharing that defence annual revenue has crossed
₹500cr+ mark for the first time. Our Defence order book stands around ₹2600 cr+ and
we are expecting big orders in coming quarters. As a result of these orders, we are
expecting the defence revenue to grow Three-fold in FY25. Our business goals are well
aligned with country's ambition to make India Atamnirbhar in the field of ammunition and
emerge as a major export hub in coming years.”
He also added, “The domestic explosives volume in this quarter grew significantly by around
24% & 20% in the year, aided by strong growth from mining & Infra sector. The domestic
explosive orderbook of CIL & SCCL stands at around ₹2500 cr.”
He further added, “We are entering FY 2025 with an optimistic outlook on our business.
The continued momentum in the domestic market is likely to grow our volumes by 15%
and international business to do much better. We are expecting defence business to rise
significantly and reach to more than 20% of our total revenue for FY25 which is currently
at 9%. Based on this background we expect the topline to show growth of around 30% and
EBIDTA margins to improve further from current levels.”
The progress made by the company over the past two and half decades has put Solar in a
more sustainable position within the challenging economic and business environment.
Our development has been radical as we continue to explore growth opportunities. We
remain committed to a high-performance culture which helps the company to create
value for the stakeholders.
