About Shlokka Dyes

Shlokka Dyes Limited (SDL) was incorporated on July 09, 2021 as 'Shlokka Dyes Private Limited' at Ahmedabad, Gujarat, and was converted into a public limited company on November 11, 2024 (CIN U24299GJ2021PLC124004). Though incorporated in 2021, its manufacturing operations began only in Fiscal 2022-23. The company operates a single manufacturing facility at Plot No. C/54, GIDC, Saykha, Dist. Bharuch, Gujarat (~5,000 sq. metre plot with a 5,731.81 sq. metre factory building), with an installed capacity of 9,000 MT per annum, certified to ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management) and ISO 45001:2018 (Occupational Health & Safety). It earns money by making and selling dyes — chiefly Reactive Dyes (Reactive Black being the largest contributor at 54.70% of revenue in the seven months ended October 31, 2024) plus Direct, Basic, Vat, Digital Printing, Paper and Acid dyes and intermediates like J Acid and K Acid — on a B2B basis, predominantly within India (85.89% of stub-period sales from Gujarat), with exports to Uzbekistan of ₹508.87 lakhs (8.30% of revenue) in Fiscal 2024; a small portion of revenue (2.83% in the stub period) comes from trading surplus raw material. Revenue from operations grew from ₹876.80 lakhs in Fiscal 2023 to ₹6,127.53 lakhs in Fiscal 2024 (PAT ₹491.79 lakhs), and stood at ₹5,745.54 lakhs with PAT of ₹551.59 lakhs for the seven months ended October 31, 2024. The business is promoted by Vaibhav Shah (Managing Director, 25+ years in the dyes industry, also proprietor of Equinox Impex) and Shivani Rajpurohit (Executive Director), who together hold 100% pre-issue capital. The company is raising a 100% fresh issue of up to 65,00,000 equity shares for listing on BSE SME.
