INDUSTRY OVERVIEW AND STATE OF COMPANY'S AFFAIRS
The global electronics market is growing at 5% CAGR and is expected to reach 6Tn by 2030 whereas the Indian electronics manufacturing is expected to reach $500 Bn including finished goods and components by FY 30 with 25% of production expected to be outsourced. India has witnessed a transformative expansion of its digital economy over the past decade, driven by a series of
strategic government initiatives that have reshaped governance, industry and global engagement. This transformation has significantly strengthened India's position in electronics manufacturing, digital services and global value chains. India's electronics manufacturing sector has also undergone a structural transformation, supported by targeted policy interventions and incentive schemes such as the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Schemes, the Semicon India Programme (SIP), the Scheme for Promotion of Manufacturing of Electronic
Components and Semiconductors (SPECS) and Electronics Manufacturing Clusters (EMC 2.0). Government interventions through these schemes have created a complete electronics manufacturing ecosystem in India. As a result, domestic value addition is steadily increasing, with greater localization of components and sub-assemblies. With the manufacturing expansion, India has emerged as the world's second largest manufacturer of mobile handsets by volume. To further consolidate its manufacturing ecosystem, the Government of India has also taken decisive steps towards building a diversified, resilient, and sustainable semiconductor and display manufacturing landscape.

India is also exporting more electronics and becoming part of global supply chain. Government policies and initiatives have helped strengthen domestic manufacturing and attract global companies and expand exports. The ECMS aims to further deepen the supply chain ecosystem and develop robust electronics component ecosystem in India. The larger goal is to create a $500 billion electronics manufacturing industry by 2030-31, making India a global technology leader while generating more jobs and opportunities at home.

During the year, we expanded our employee motivation strategy through a multi-dimensional approach that focused on recognition, growth, well-being and engagement. We enhanced our performance-linked incentive structure to ensure clear alignment between individual contributions and organisational outcomes, supported by periodic performance reviews and transparent appraisal mechanisms. To strengthen career progression, we invested in capability-building initiatives including frameworks that support succession planning.
In addition, we prioritised employee well-being by broadening access to health benefits, mental wellness resources that promote work-life integration. Regular town halls, feedback surveys and training sessions were conducted to reinforce open communication and ensure employee voices inform decision-making. We also advanced our diversity, equity and inclusion agenda to foster a respectful and collaborative workplace culture. Collectively, these measures have strengthened employee engagement, improved retention and cultivated a high- performance environment aligned with our long-term strategic priorities.
Your Company is also aiming to become more inclusive and therefore the promotion of gender diversity and succession planning has been the key features of our talent strategy. Your Company has a 'Zero Tolerance' policy towards any kind of discrimination and harassment at the workplace. We are an equal opportunity employer providing equal remuneration for women and men.
