Dachepalli Publishers Limited has announced the purchase of notebook manufacturing machines as part of its business expansion and backward integration initiative. The company informed the Bombay Stock Exchange on May 22, 2026, that it had acquired new equipment to commence in-house manufacturing of notebooks and exercise books.

The specific machinery purchased includes the Linomatic Automatic Reel to Sheet Super High Speed Ruling/Flexo Printing Machine – SHS 104 S and the Exercise Book Binding Machine – UNO B104. With the installation of these machines, the company will supply its existing customer schools directly, rather than procuring finished goods from external vendors.

This strategic move is designed to enhance the company's operational capabilities. By bringing production in-house, Dachepalli Publishers aims to improve operational efficiencies, strengthen quality control, and optimize production timelines. Additionally, the initiative is expected to yield better cost efficiencies for the company.

The development aligns with the company's long-term growth and operational strategy. The intimation was submitted under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
