    Q&A highlights

    8

    “Definitely. So last year, we have not got that much months. Like, we have raised the fund, which received after seven month of year ended. We have started experience centre in April. But by doing interviews and onboarding to them, giving them training, so entire year, we have not worked. So something we got for the month or one month, three month, and four months, six months. So considering those things, we did 18% growth in last year. And this momentum, I'm sure will be increased every year.”

    Analyst questioned the aggressive 10x target, and management explained the foundational investments made in FY25 that will yield results in future years.

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    FY25 Performance and Growth Momentum

    Marvel Decor Ltd achieved an 18% revenue growth in FY25, reaching ₹63 crores, up from ₹53 crores in FY24. This growth is seen as a positive step towards the company's ambitious 10x revenue journey, aiming for ₹500 crores by 2030-31. Gross sales for the year stood at ₹71.15 crores. Management expects this growth momentum to accelerate, targeting 20-30% revenue growth in FY26 and potentially 30-50% in FY27.

    02

    Strategic Investments and EBITDA Margin Impact

    Despite revenue growth, the EBITDA margin for FY25 decreased to 11.8% from 13.2% in FY24. This compression is attributed to significant investments in expanding sales and marketing infrastructure, including establishing a new Mumbai office and experience center, hiring over 20 salespeople, and increased marketing activities. Management views these as foundational investments for future growth and expects the EBITDA margin to recover to 12-13% in FY26.

    03

    International Expansion and Project Business

    The company is aggressively pursuing international markets, particularly the GCC region and the USA. In Dubai, Marvel Decor has seen strong traction in project business, securing a significant order for 900 Solis Motors in a hotel. The company has a project pipeline of ₹15 crores in Dubai and ₹10 crores in India. A dedicated ROW (Rest of World) team operates from the Mumbai office, focusing on markets like the USA, where a new subsidiary was established to streamline operations and invoicing.

    04

    New Product Launches and Category Expansion

    FY25 saw several new product introductions, including Solis Motors for blinds and curtains, and new curtain track systems. Marvel Decor also expanded into the new category of system integrators, targeting home and office automation businesses. These new offerings are expected to boost project business and increase average ticket sizes, with motorized blind installations potentially reaching ₹2 lakhs per home.

    05

    Working Capital and Inventory Management

    The company's inventory, primarily fabrics, is considered non-perishable and strategically maintained to support a wide product range and fight competition. While inventory levels are substantial, management noted that the inventory percentage against sales has reduced. An increase in receivables was observed, mainly from Dubai projects, which management expects to improve with the establishment of banking facilities in Dubai.

    06

    Market Penetration and Channel Strategy

    Marvel Decor is focusing on onboarding over 200 architects and interior designers across Mumbai and PAN India in FY26 to drive domestic growth. The company also plans to participate in over 20 exhibitions and events to enhance visibility and generate leads. The strategy involves a multi-channel approach, including dealer networks, inter-depository channels, project channels, and direct marketing to end-users.
