Highlights Overview Overview Ahead
Management’s Message
“
“We have commenced FY27 on a strong note, delivering healthy growth in production,
revenues and profitability. Our performance during the quarter was driven by sustained
demand across key customer segments, improved operating efficiencies and better realizations
following price hikes received from OEMs. Coupled with economies of scale, these factors
enabled us to deliver a healthy improvementin EBITDA and profitability.
The strategic investments undertaken over the past year continue to translate into tangible
operational benefits. The commissioning of Kocks Block and new reheating furnace in the last
financial year have started strengthening our manufacturing capabilities, improving product
quality and operational efficiency while expanding our finished rolling capacity to 2.7 Lacs
MTPA. In addition, the commissioning of our solar power plant is contributing to lower energy
costs and supporting our long-termsustainability objectives.
Looking ahead, we remain focused on executing our long-term growth strategy, including the
development of the 5 Lacs MTPA Greenfield special steel facility and the forging and
machining plant in collaboration with Aichi Steel Corporation. These initiatives, along with our
continued focus on operational excellence and business diversification, position us well to
create sustainable value forall ourstakeholders."
