Message
We have maintained topline growth in Q4, in line with the 5% growth recorded in the preceding quarter. This reflects our resilience and ability to navigate a further softening of demand in both domestic and export markets.
Despite sluggish market conditions leading to pricing pressure and lower capacity utilisation resulting in margin compression, however, our continued focus on operational efficiency has enabled us to largely sustain our operating margins.
As we enter the new fiscal year (which is likely to be supported by favorable macroeconomic and microeconomic indicators), expanding our product portfolio and strengthening our distribution network will be among the key growth drivers.
Private real estate consumption is looking positive furthermore government initiatives in housing, urbanisation, and sanitation are expected to support industry growth. Aided by the rationalisation of income tax which is likely to boost discretionary spending as the year progresses would have a favourable impact.
