Key Points

• KPR Mill is expected to see steady growth due to apparel and sugar-ethanol businesses.
• Revenue growth is predicted at 12% in FY26, with consistent profit margins.
• European demand is rising, particularly in the UK and Germany, boosting garment sales.

KPR Mill, which makes fabrics and yarns, is likely to keep performing well. Experts predict this will be because its clothing and sugar-ethanol businesses are growing. This analysis comes from Antique Stock Broking after speaking with the company’s leaders.

The brokerage forecasts around 12% growth in revenue for the next financial year (FY26). They also believe the company will maintain its profit margins, meaning they won’t significantly decrease.

Several factors are supporting this view. Demand for KPR’s clothing is growing in Europe, especially in countries like the UK and Germany. This is good news because many people are buying clothes from KPR.

Additionally, KPR is producing a lot of sugar and ethanol. The sugarcane crops are unusually good this year, and rules about making these products are now easier. They expect to make 120 to 140 million litres of ethanol and about 0.2 million tonnes of sugar.

However, the company is reducing its business in the United States. There are problems with tariffs – like taxes – on goods going into the US. They’re also shifting their focus to selling clothes in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, where they already have a strong presence.

KPR is also planning to build a new factory in Odisha, India, which would increase their production capacity by 50-60 million pieces of clothing. This is a big step for the company, but they’re waiting for official approvals.

Despite these opportunities, the company anticipates some challenges. Yarn production, which is a part of their business, might see lower profits. Overall, Antique Stock Broking believes KPR Mill will have a stable year with steady growth, and they’ll be watching closely to see if the new factory and trade agreements will lead to further improvements.
