Balance Sheet Strength & Key Ratios

MCMIL significantly strengthened its balance sheet during the year, achieving its targeted Net Debt to EBITDA ratio of close to 1x, reflecting strong cash flows and continued deleveraging. The debt-equity ratio improved to 1.13x from 1.81x in the previous year, and the interest coverage ratio rose to 2.85x from 1.63x.

Operational Highlights

FY26 was marked by strong operational momentum across MCMIL's business segments. Production of Galvanized / Alu-Zinc Steel reached 1,03,036 MT for FY26, a growth of +2.21% YoY, while Pre-Painted Steel production grew +12.78% YoY to 83,594 MT. The value-added product mix — Pre-Painted Steel as a share of total sales — rose to 80% in FY26 from 74% in FY25, reflecting the company's deliberate premiumisation strategy. On the exports front, export tonnage touched an all-time high of 66,172 MT in FY26, up 110% YoY from 31,453 MT in FY25. The share of exports as a percentage of total revenue expanded to 68.21% from 39.20% in FY25, a growth of 97% YoY.

Status of Key Strategic Projects

MCMIL continued to make progress on its expansion and sustainability initiatives during the year. The Alu-Zinc Coating Upgrade was commissioned in December 2025, increasing capacity from 1,32,000 TPA to 1,80,000 TPA, a 36% increase. The second colour coating line and a 7 MWp captive solar power plant at the Kutch facility are both targeted for commissioning in Q2 FY27. The captive solar plant is expected to reduce effective power costs by up to 40%, translating into annual savings of up to Rs. 7 Cr. against a capex of Rs. 30 Cr. Looking further ahead, a new Alu-Zinc Coating Line 2 (Phase 2) with an estimated capex of Rs. 150 Cr. and a Cold Rolling Mill (CRM) Complex with an estimated capex of Rs. 200 Cr. are both targeted for FY28. The CRM complex will enable the company to shift from Cold Rolled Coils (CRC) to Hot Rolled Coils (HRC) as the primary raw material, supporting backward integration and improved procurement flexibility.

FY29 Vision

MCMIL has outlined an ambitious FY29 vision targeting a 3x increase in total output, revenue, and profitability from FY26 levels, underpinned by continued investments in capacity expansion, backward integration, and operational efficiency improvements.

During the year, the company successfully commercialized its Aluminium-Zinc coating technology, strengthening its position in the premium coated steel segment. Despite temporary margin pressure in Q4 FY26 arising from elevated freight, energy, and input costs amid geopolitical disruptions, demand remained healthy and profitability continued to remain resilient. The company also made significant progress on its expansion and sustainability initiatives. From a balance sheet perspective, the company achieved its targeted Net Debt to EBITDA ratio of close to 1x, reflecting strong cash flows, disciplined capital allocation, and continued deleveraging. MCMIL remains focused on its strategic pillars of premiumisation, export growth, operational efficiency, and balance sheet deleveraging."

Scheme of Merger: Background and Rationale

The proposed Scheme of Merger involves the amalgamation of JPA Snacks Private Limited (Transferor Company) into Manaksia Coated Metals & Industries Limited (Transferee Company). JPA Snacks Private Limited was incorporated on February 1, 2017 as a private limited company and is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Transferee Company, with its registered office also situated at Bikaner Building, 8/1 Lal Bazar Street, 3rd Floor, Kolkata - 700001, West Bengal, India. The Transferee Company holds 100% of the issued, subscribed and paid-up equity share capital of the Transferor Company.

The management has stated that the amalgamation is aimed at consolidating business under a single entity and achieving a simplified corporate structure through group reorganisation. The stated benefits of the Scheme include:

• Streamlining the organisation structure and achieving administrative and operational convenience
• Strengthening of financial position with a wider capital base and increased leverage capacity
• Enhancement of net-worth of the combined entities, leading to better ability to leverage the business and reduction in cost of capital
• Consolidation of businesses into the Transferee Company, resulting in unlocking of value and creation of additional liquidity for shareholders
• Greater administrative efficiency, enhanced productivity, and reduction in multiplicity of legal and regulatory compliances and fixed costs

The Appointed Date under the Scheme is defined as the opening of business on April 1, 2025, or such other date as the NCLT, Kolkata Bench may direct. The Effective Date is defined as the date of sanction of the Scheme by the NCLT, Kolkata Bench.

Share Capital and Structural Details

The share capital details of both companies as on the date of the Notice are as follows:

Since the Transferor Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Transferee Company, no new equity shares will be issued by the Transferee Company as consideration for the amalgamation. All shares of the Transferor Company held by the Transferee Company and its nominees shall stand cancelled upon the Scheme becoming effective. Consequently, there will be no change in the shareholding pattern or capital structure of the Transferee Company pursuant to this Scheme.
