Side panel with built-in explosive reactive armor of late generation
That said, I have heard that it might be some sort of light composite plate, but I doubt it

This graphic on the -MS suggests that the side armor is indeed some sort of ERA:
The same design is present on the BMPT-72 and the -M.
The first pic of the side armor also looks like the tank has the "bagged" ERA that's come in vogue lately strapped on:
