Industry overview

India is the world’s largest milk producer, with India’s share in overall production increasing from around 21% in CY17 to around 26% in CY25 outpacing its consumption, highlighting its potential as a major player in the global dairy production. The Indian dairy industry is characterized by regional dominance. This is largely due to the high proportion of liquid milk, demand for products with a short shelf life, and the logistical challenges associated with long-distance transportation. The short shelf life of liquid milk, coupled with low margins, makes it economically unviable for players to transport milk over long distances. Furthermore, the intricacies of manufacturing, processing, and maintaining a cold chain add to the complexity of operating on a national scale. Building strong procurement networks and gaining the trust of farmers in new regions also requires significant time and effort. Consequently, most players establish a strong regional presence before venturing into other markets.

The Indian dairy market has demonstrated robust growth, expanding at a CAGR of 9.8% from FY20-26 to reach Rs 12.0 trillion in FY26. This growth has been driven by a 5-6% increase in volumes of milk produced and a 4-5% rise in price realizations of dairy market. Milk, which remains the backbone of the dairy industry, is complemented by various value-added products such as paneer, curd, cheese, butter, ghee, khoa, skimmed milk powder, milkshake, ice cream, yogurt, and whey, which are growing at much faster pace than milk. Looking ahead, the Indian dairy market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.3% from FY26-31, to reach Rs 19.6 trillion by FY31, driven by the strong growth of value-added dairy products.

To support farmers, various value-added services such as loans, insurance, and training are provided by both government and private entities. The Indian government has introduced multiple schemes like the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) for crop insurance and the Kisan Credit Card (KCC) scheme for easy access to credit. These initiatives help farmers manage financial risks and invest in better farming practices. Additionally, training programs on modern dairy farming techniques, animal health, and nutrition are conducted by organizations like the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB). In FY26, the Indian dairy market is growing at a CAGR of 10.3% to reach Rs 19.6 trillion in FY31. Liquid milk contributes around 49% of the overall dairy market by value in FY26, with total market estimated at Rs 5.9 trillion. In FY26, value-added dairy products contributed around 51% to the overall dairy market.

This diversification serves as a testament of its product innovation and manufacturing capabilities and has been strategically implemented to leverage its logistics, maximize shelf space in retail outlets through visi-coolers and increase its share in the customer wallet. Its diversified product portfolio comprises 22 product categories with 640 stock keeping units, to address diverse consumer requirements. Its diversified product portfolio enables it to command larger shelf space.

Its inability to anticipate and adapt to evolving consumer tastes, preferences and demand for such products, or ensure product quality may adversely impact demand for such products and consequently its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Risks related to manufacturing facility: The company operates a manufacturing facility located in Perundurai, Erode District, Tamil Nadu.

Industry overview

The Indian printing and packaging industry is an integral part of the country’s manufacturing and consumption ecosystem, supporting a wide range of end-use sectors including FMCG, pharmaceuticals, food processing, ecommerce, and consumer goods. The industry is undergoing a gradual shift toward organized operations, higher value-added packaging formats, and compliance-driven production, driven by evolving consumer preferences, branding requirements, and regulatory standards.

The Indian printing segment is estimated at $56.80 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow to $86.15 billion by 2035, reflecting a CAGR of 4.25% over the decade. Growth is driven by rising demand for marketing materials, catalogues, brochures, and corporate communications, coupled with increased adoption of digital printing technologies that enable faster turnaround, customization, and cost efficiency. Additionally, expansion of organized retail, e-commerce, and corporate branding initiatives is expected to support steady demand for highquality printed materials in both domestic and export markets.

The Indian printing and packaging industry is expected to witness sustained growth and structural transformation over the medium to long term, supported by rising demand from FMCG, pharmaceuticals, food & beverages, ecommerce, and consumer goods sectors. Rapid urbanisation, changing consumption patterns, and increasing focus on branding and product differentiation are driving higher demand for printed packaging, labels, cartons, and flexible packaging solutions. The continued shift from unorganized to organized retail, coupled with the expansion of e-commerce and last-mile delivery networks, is further strengthening demand for durable, high-quality, and visually appealing packaging formats.

Pros and strengths

In-House operational structure: The company handles most activities internally, including design, pre-press preparation, printing, finishing, packaging, and final delivery. Managing these processes within the organization reduces dependence on third party vendors and provides greater control over production scheduling and workflow management. It also allows better coordination between different stages of production, helping reduce delays, communication gaps, and operational inefficiencies. Since activities are closely monitored at each stage, the company can maintain consistency in output quality, manage timelines more effectively, and respond to customer requirements in a more structured manner.

Presence across multiple industries: The company caters to multiple industries such as publishing, FMCG, pharmaceuticals, packaging, and other commercial sectors, which provides a diversified business base. Serving customers across different industries reduces dependence on any single customer segment or market category, thereby lowering concentration risk. Demand conditions often vary across industries, and this diversified presence helps the company maintain business continuity even if one particular sector experiences slower growth or reduced demand. It also allows the company to utilize its production capabilities across a wider range of products and customer requirements. In addition, working with clients from different industries helps the company maintain a broader market presence and creates opportunities to secure repeat and cross-sector business over time.

Relationships with clients and suppliers: The company has developed long-standing relationships with both clients and suppliers, which play an important role in supporting its day-to-day operations and overall business continuity. These relationships have been built through consistent business engagements, operational coordination, and repeat transactions over time. The promoters are actively involved in sales and marketing activities and continue to oversee and maintain these associations closely. Stable relationships with suppliers help ensure timely procurement of raw materials and smoother execution of production activities, while ongoing engagement with customers supports repeat business and operational visibility. Such business relationships contribute to continuity in operations and support the company’s future growth and market presence.

Risks and concerns

Significant revenue dependence on top 10 customers: A considerable portion of its revenue is derived from a limited number of key customers, making its business partially dependent on their continued association. Revenue generated from its top 10 customers accounted for 86.14%, 78.61%, and 81.56%, of its revenue from operations during the Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Any decline in orders, delays, cancellations, inability to negotiate favorable terms, or the loss of a major customer could have a material adverse impact on its financial condition, operational performance and future growth prospects. Additionally, it does not have firm commitment in the form of long-term supply agreements with its customers, and the company has not entered into any long-term agreements with any of its top 10 customers. 

Business is dependent on a limited number of key suppliers: The company is significantly dependent on a limited number of suppliers for the procurement of raw materials required for manufacturing printing, packaging & labelling products such as paper and paperboard, inks, adhesives, foils, films and other consumables from third-party suppliers. Purchases from its top 10 suppliers accounted for 65.59%, 55.47%, and 89.71% of its total purchases during the Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Any disruption, delay, or termination of business relationships with one or more of these key suppliers could adversely affect its ability to maintain inventory levels, fulfill customer demand, and operate efficiently. Factors such as changes in pricing terms, credit arrangements, supply chain disruptions, operational constraints, capacity limitations, quality issues, regulatory restrictions, logistical challenges, geopolitical developments, or other unforeseen circumstances beyond control from these suppliers could have a material adverse impact on its business operations, profitability, and financial condition

Business is geographically concentrated in Uttar Pradesh: The company derives a significant portion of its revenue from operations in one state i.e., Uttar Pradesh. Revenue generated from Uttar Pradesh constituted around 69.43% for FY 2025-26, 89.97% for FY 2024-25 and 89.41% for FY 2023- 24, while the remaining portion was derived from other states. Any adverse developments affecting this state, including changes in economic conditions, regulatory environment, political stability, or market demand, could have an adverse impact on the company’s revenue, results of operations, and financial condition.

Outlook

S. K. Offset, incorporated in 2007, is an India-based printing and packaging solutions company primarily engaged in offset printing and value-added print applications. The Company serves a diversified customer base spanning FMCG, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods, corporates, institutional clients, and the education segment, delivering high-quality printed products in line with customer specifications and applicable regulatory requirements. On the concern side, its operations are dependent on third-party transportation and logistics service providers for the transportation of raw material, import of printing machines or delivery of finished goods to its customers. Neither it owns or operates its transportation fleet nor it has any long-term agreements with any logistic service provider. It relies on external logistics providers, many of whom operate in the unorganized sector and are engaged on a non-exclusive and short-term basis. Any disruption in logistics operations or increase in freight costs could adversely affect its business.

The company is coming out with a maiden IPO of 23,25,000 equity shares of face value of Rs 10 each. The issue has been offered in a price band of Rs 119-125 per equity share.

Meanwhile, the company’s business strategy is focused on strengthening its position as an integrated mid-scale packaging and printing solutions provider. Over the years, the business has gradually evolved from conventional printing activities toward value-added packaging products, supported by investments in technology, process improvement, and customer diversification. The strategic direction of the company is aligned with broader industry trends, including the increasing shift from traditional print products to packaging applications, rising demand for premium and compliant packaging solutions, and growing opportunities in organised domestic and export markets.
