Optiemus Infracom expects to benefit significantly from mandated BIS standards and fog marking for mobile screen protectors starting in 2027, which will restrict imports that currently comprise 99.9% of the market. The company targets Rs 20bn in revenue from screen protectors in FY28 at its billing price, supported by its newly established factory. Management projects 20-25% margins in this own-product category, compared to roughly 3% in its core EMS business. Details on its Nothing CMF partnership will be finalized after definitive agreements and government scheme clarity.
