The company’s Managing Director stated that the healthy year-on-year revenue growth of over 26 percent in the quarter reflects the success of timely capacity expansions, strategic initiatives and the growing brand trust. This growth provides a strong foundation to achieve the near-term annual growth target of 18-20 percent.
During the quarter, DOMS Industries expanded its product portfolio with multiple launches across all segments. Significant additions were introduced in core categories, including scholastic stationery, scholastic art material, kits & combo packs, paper stationery, and office supplies. New offerings in the hobby & craft, baby hygiene, and back-to-school segments also received strong customer response.
Export markets continued to respond positively to the company’s own branded products, contributing meaningfully to growth. The partnership with FILA for international distribution showed promising early results, with encouraging feedback from select markets where DOMS-branded products are now distributed through FILA’s network and infrastructure.
Looking ahead, the ~44-acre expansion project remains on schedule, with construction progressing as planned. Possession of the first factory building is expected by the end of Q3 FY26, with commercial production set to commence by the close of Q4 FY26.

This acquisition added around 3,600 MTPA of production capacity, enhances regional presence and distribution capabilities, and aligns with the company’s strategy to grow market share in the paper stationery segment.
Ongoing brownfield capacity expansions across all product categories are progressing in phases, enabling gradual increases in production.
