2. State of Company's affairs, operations and outlook:

In line with the economy and industry sentiments, the revenue from operations for your Company increased by
approximate 9.56 per cent. The increase was noticed across all segments.

During the year under review, on a consolidated basis your Company recorded net revenue from operations (net of
taxes and incentives) of Rs. 1,19,861 lakhs as against Rs. 1,09,403 lakhs for the last fiscal. On consolidated basis,
the Company recorded profit (before tax & exceptional item) of Rs. 16,522 lakhs, an increase of 28.64 per cent over
Rs. 12,844 lakhs for the last fiscal. The exceptional item for Rs.5,512 lakhs, a one time payout for getting certain
premises in the Company's Corporate Office building, vacated and handed over in as-is condition and other undertakings
from the occupant, resulted in the Company, reporting a net profit of Rs. 8,232 lakhs, a decrease of 66 per cent over
Rs. 24,151 lakhs for the last fiscal.

On a standalone basis, your Company recorded net revenue from operations (net of taxes and incentives) of
Rs. 1,07,752 lakhs an increase of 5.36 per cent over Rs. 1,02,272 lakhs of the last fiscal. The profit (before tax &
exceptional item) of Rs.13,172 lakhs, an increase of 22.14% over Rs. 10,784 lakhs for the last fiscal and the net profit
of Rs. 5,868 lakhs, a decrease of 77 per cent over Rs 25,047 lakhs for the last fiscal as explained above.

The Company's revenue growth and the net operational profit (without exceptional items) were comparable with the
growth of other major industry players. Considering the long term growth story of the Indian economy, your Company
is confident of improved performance both on revenue and net profits fronts, in the current year.

Amidst a challenging global macroeconomic environment, India continues to demonstrate relative resilience. The
country's GDP growth is projected at 7.0% for FY 2023-24, with estimates indicating a moderation to 6.4% in FY 2024¬
25. At this growth rate, India will continue to be the fastest-growing economy in the world. Automobile contributes
nearly 6 per cent of India's GDP and 35 per cent of the manufacturing GDP. Globalizing has opened newer avenues
for the transportation industry, especially a shift towards electric, electronic and hybrid cars, which are deemed
more efficient, safe, and reliable modes of transportation. Over the next decade, this will lead to newer verticals and
opportunities for auto-component manufacturers, who would need to adapt to the change via systematic research and
development.

The Government of India's Automotive Mission Plan (AMP) has come a long way in ensuring growth for the sector.
Indian automobile industry is expected to achieve a turnover of USD 300 billion for the year 2026 and as per Automobile
Component Manufacturers Association (ACMA) forecasts, automobile component exports from India are expected to
reach USD 80 billion during FY 25-26. The Indian auto-components industry has become the third largest in the world
in 2025. Indian auto-component makers are well positioned to benefit from the globalization of the sector as exports
potential could increase exponentially in the next decade.

During the year under review, a Family Settlement Agreement (FSA) was entered into between members of the
NRB and NIBL Groups, pursuant to which both Groups will operate independently, without mutual restrictions on
their respective growth strategies. While the Company was not a party to the agreement, certain Board members
contributed to the resolution of specific conditions precedent outlined therein. These developments are expected to
benefit the Company.

The Management places on record its appreciation for such contribution in closing the outstanding issues, against a
one -time payment shown as exceptional item for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2025.

The Company is uniquely positioned in the high precision friction solutions industry ,with its enviable position based
on technology leadership, quality and innovative design, lower cost of production, low leverage and strong de-risked
customer relationships, giving the Company a unique competitive advantage in an uncertain world.

As the industry dynamics and the new product lines get redefined, the Company is preparing to:

• Focus on precision component categories, like new generation of light weight bearings that could provide higher
margins,

• Potential Growth Market - expansion of product range and penetration at Company's large Key Global Customers,
that span ICE/Hybrid EV and Agnostic (technology - driven common platforms that would not change in this
transition

• Expanding our portfolio to serve adjacent industries.

• Use its low leverage -D/E of under 0.20 to drive into the future

• Re-focusing capabilities and resources into market opportunities where the Company has low penetration
(Aftermarket, Industrial Mobility, Defence, etc)

• Thrust into OEM-driven Industrial Mobility Segments,

• Cost optimization strategy including focus on solar, logistics, process and material optimization

• The Company is working with Europe's largest application oriented research organization in order to become the
industry leader on cutting edge laser and additive technologies.
