The increase in revenue was primarily driven by higher sales volume in Lead and Plastic division.

The increase in production was due to higher capacity utilization at all the existing facilities and stabilization of new facilities situated in Ghana and Tanzania. Further, during the quarter the company has been able to procure 39,559 MT of scrap evidencing a growth of approx. 19% from the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

The EBlDTA margin of the company improved significantly due to higher sale of Lead Alloys and Value Added Products (V AP). The sales from Lead Alloys and V AP increased by 60% against the corresponding quarter of the previous year. The bottom line of the company improved due to the stabilization of 100% hedging policy of the company and economies of scale. The increase in production at overseas facilities helped in increasing the bottom line due to higher margins at these locations.

Over the next few quarters, the company will majorly focus to improve its capacity utilization at existing facilities, increasing the production and sales of high margin products like Lead Alloys and Value Added Products by strengthening its global scrap collection network and also by venturing into new territories. The company is also focusing on developing the export market for its Aluminium Alloys which will result in a reduced working capital cycle coupled with improved profit margins.
