This conference call may contain forward-looking statements about the company which are

statements are not the guarantees of the future performance and involve risks and uncertainties
that are difficult to predict.
I now hand the conference over to Mr. C. Bhaskar, Managing Director from Xpro India Limited.
Thank you and over to you, sir.
C. Bhaskar: Thank you, Vidhi. Good morning, friends. I extend a very warm welcome to all participants to
this Q2 and H1 financial year 2027 earnings call of Xpro India Limited. Many of us would have
interacted in the past. Nonetheless, I introduce myself once again as C. Bhaskar, Managing
Director of Xpro India Limited.
Today on this call, I have with me Shri Girish Behal, our Managing Director Designate and
Chief Executive Officer, Shri Vinay Kumar Agarwal, our President (Finance) and Chief
Financial Officer, Shri Himangshu Bakshi, our Group Technical Counsel, Shri Kamal Sewoda,
our Company Secretary. MUFG Intime, who many of you will remember as Orient Capital
earlier, is our Investment Relations Partner and is as always coordinating this session.
We are continuing the practice commenced a few years ago of hosting this conference call for
the benefit of our investor community and for keeping investors, analysts familiar and updated
about our results and key developments at our units. As many of you have already had the
opportunity to meet us on earlier calls, at the AGM or in occasional investor meets, I shall not
dwell on reintroducing our company.
I must add that we are transparent in our approach but must state that all discussions here will
be within boundaries reasonably imposed by our strategic and competitive position and of course
legal requirements as may be applicable. As you are all aware, Xpro India Limited is a
diversified multi-locational company primarily focused on polymer processing with extremely
strong governance standards. The company is family-led and is a professionally managed arm
of one of India's largest and most reputed industrial houses, the Birlas. Xpro itself currently has
manufacturing facilities at Greater Noida in UP, Ranjangaon in Maharashtra, and Barjora in
West Bengal, besides a subsidiary in the United Arab Emirates at Ras Al Khaimah.
Our operating units have built up special skills and competencies in the specialized field of co-
extrusion with application in the manufacture of oriented films, multilayer plastic sheets, and
multilayer cast plastic films. Thermoforming supports downstream processing of sheets. Xpro
specializes in advanced materials and is India's leading manufacturer of polypropylene dielectric
capacitor films.

These precision engineered ultra-thin films range from the ultra-film range of 2 micron and up
to 16 micron in thickness and form the core of capacitors used in EV inverters, solar systems,
wind turbines, and industrial drives. We are also India's largest supplier of sheets and liners to
the refrigerator industry.
Driven by technical precision, quality, and development strength besides customer qualification
cycles and support, Xpro has faced well the global competition without tariff protection to
become the premier supplier in this part of the world. Our results for the quarter and half year
ended September 30th, 2026 have already been uploaded on stock exchange portals and you
may have had the opportunity to also go through our press release and the presentation that we
have uploaded to the exchange site and also on our own websites.
With the new dielectric film line at Barjora operational, the company entered 26-27 with
materially expanded capacity and a stronger platform for volume and export growth. The new
line has doubled our nameplate capacity in India to 8,000 metric tons of dielectric films a year.
Commercial ramp-up of the line is now underway and its full impact will be reflected
commensurately as we go forward.
With regard to dielectric capacitor films, as most of you are aware, the company operates in a
product and process space that is fundamentally different from BOPP for conventional uses.
Polypropylene dielectric film, mainly for capacitor applications, is specification-intensive and
precision-driven, and the industry is limited globally amongst a select number of producers.
Building credible scale and reputation in this space requires technical capability and consistent
product quality attributes that our Biax operations have developed systematically, earning a
strong standing among discerning clients while maintaining a first-mover domestic producer
advantage. Interestingly, the demand backdrop here is structural, not cyclical.
Electrification, renewable energy build-out, grid modernization, data centers, electric mobility,
and traction systems, all place a direct and growing premium on film durability and dielectric
performance with long-term capital development cycles that consistently reinforce end-use
demand. Our films go into capacitors used in EV inverters, solar and wind installations, grid
equipment, railways, and data centers. So, all of these are good for us.
Product development is directed deliberately at the highest value end, ultra-thin, hazy, and semi-
raw films for power capacitors, EV systems, and railway applications. These are also high entry
barrier segments which are technically demanding, relation-driven, and margin-supported.
During the quarter, we strengthened our position and our recorded market share in both segments
of dielectric films, that is plain films and hazy films.
Dielectric film exports nearly doubled over last year. New customers and applications are being
onboarded fo
