Backed by strong financial performance, the company has also declared its first interim dividend of Rs 25 per share for FY2021-22.
Pankaj Poddar, CEO, Cosmo Films, said, “With current capacity expected to produce primarily speciality films (80%+) in next two years and projected BOPP film demand growth in India, the company planned capacity expansion which will be world’s largest production line with annual rated capacity of 67,000-MT with lowest cost of production.”
The company has also recently launched ZIGLY, India’s first tech-enabled integrated pet-care platform, through the launch of its website Zigly.com and the opening of its flagship experience center in New Delhi.
