Management Comment

Commenting on the result, Mr Shashank Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Salasar Techno Engineering Ltd. said,

“I am pleased to inform you that the company has delivered a strong performance during the quarter with a revenue of Rs 200.2 Crores and EBITDA of Rs 21.5 Crores which is 10.7% of the revenue. The operations of the company are back to normal post the Covid disruptions, which is reflected in the results. The stellar performance was driven by contribution from each of our business segments along with our approach to diversify and enter newer segments. All our business verticals offer significant headroom for growth and operating leverage as they scale up. Railways’ electrification continues to remain a key growth segment and focus area for us. Further our new vertical of Heavy Steel Structure Division has gained impetus with a steady flow of orders along with increasing our customer base with reputed brands.

“The entire team of Salasar Techno Engineering deserves special acknowledgement for their untiring efforts in contributing towards the Company’s performance as we continue to strive for growth opportunities in the future.”
