During the year under consideration on Standalone basis your Company has achieved total Revenue of Rs. 2435.88 Lacs as against Rs. 1949.40 Lacs in the relevant previous financial year. There is a net profit of Rs. 65.41 Lacs as compared to net loss of Rs. 817.27 Lacs in the previous year.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK, KEY CHALLENGES AND RESPONSE

The industry’s performance is often closely tied to the overall global economic situation. Economic growth or recession can impact consumer spending on non-essential items like pet-bottles and kitchenware. India’s beverage and packaged food industries were experiencing robust growth, which was driving the demand for PET bottles and jars. The convenience and cost-effectiveness of PET packaging contributed to this trend.

The Indian government had initiated campaigns like “Make in India” and “Atmanirbhar Bharat” (self-reliant India) to boost domestic manufacturing, which could benefit the PET packaging industry. There was increasing pressure on industries to adopt more sustainable and eco-friendly practices due to concerns about plastic waste and pollution. This posed a challenge to PET manufacturers as PET is a type of plastic.

Innovations in materials, manufacturing processes, and distribution channels can significantly impact the industry’s competitiveness. There is a growing demand for sustainable and circular solutions in the plastic industry, such as the use of recycled materials, biodegradable plastics, increase recycling and up-cycling efforts, developing biodegradable or sustainable materials and closed-loop recycling systems. The PET industry is sensitive to fluctuations in the prices of raw materials, such as petrochemicals. Any substantial increase in these costs could affect profitability.

The PET packaging industry in India was highly competitive, with many players vying for market share. Maintaining competitiveness while meeting sustainability goals was a challenge. Manufacturers needed to invest in modern machinery and technology to enhance efficiency and reduce production costs.

India’s revival in consumer spending is likely to be driven by households that earn more than a million rupees a year. Consumer sentiments survey data suggest that while all income groups are worse off than they were earlier, richer households are doing better than the rest on the sentiments front. These are the least affected households and most likely with the best savings.

India is going digital and the pandemic has accelerated this shift. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, India’s e-commerce sector had begun to gain immense traction as people swayed from physical shopping and gravitated towards online shopping. The pandemic accelerated this adoption of e-commerce and India, today, is one of the fastest-growing e-commerce markets in the world with an estimated 330 million online shoppers.

Consumers are flocking online for almost all their needs - from groceries and essentials to clothing and accessories. Moreover, goods that will come in useful during long periods at home are seeing increased sales. Brands have been compelled to develop an online presence even if they had none before. This has led to a massive spurt in Direct to Consumer (D2C) brands.

The economy is now enabling people to cater to niche segments of consumers economically and there is also a rise in digital entrepreneurs. Brands are also realizing the need to approach consumers directly rather than going to marketplaces to build private labels. Moreover, payment infrastructure and integration with multiple payment options and the demand for niche products has led to the surge in the number of D2C brands.

We are proud to have bought a new thought process to the Indian kitchen by making the first safe, transparent, unbreakable, odorless plastic jars & bottles. We have been expanding our range to include trendy steel, glass, biodegradable and other products. Pearlpet is synonymous with quality and consumer satisfaction as the leading manufacturer of kitchen jars, containers, bottles, and other storage solutions. Pearlpet is the one-stop-shop for those seeking safe and durable storage solutions. We also produce durable products in rust-free materials and are the pioneers of primary food packaging in India. Constantly seeking to improvise and grow, Pearlpet is heavily focused on innovating through its thorough R&D department, accelerating Pearlpet towards the international market and garnered several awards nationally and internationally. Taking pride in our products’ utility to our consumers, Pearlpet has made conscious choices to develop and produce air-tight, highly durable, and 100% recyclable products.
