-
The Company continues to engage with farmers to build crop resilience against extreme weather events through customised agronomy practices. The Climate Smart Agriculture programme covers over 28 lakh acres and about 7.5 lakh farmers in the country.
-
Paperboards, Paper and Packaging Segment remains impacted due to low priced Chinese supplies in global markets including India, soft domestic demand conditions and unprecedented surge in wood prices
-
Segment Revenue up 2.1% YoY driven by exports; up 7% QoQ
-
Subdued realisation, surge in domestic wood prices and ocean freight continue to weigh on margins. Unseasonal rains adversely impact wood availability, quality and procurement price
-
Strategic interventions, including sharp focus on portfolio augmentation, export customer/market development & structural cost management, continue to be made to mitigate near term challenges.
The Indian economy continues to demonstrate macro-economic stability even as high frequency indicators such as automobile sales, bank credit & personal loan growth, credit card transaction volumes, GST collections, merchandise exports growth, manufacturing PMI etc. pointed to a deceleration in the pace of economic activity during the quarter. The quarter also witnessed excessive rains in August and September and a resurgence in food inflation which led to CPI hitting a 9-month high. The combination of these factors along with inflationary trends in commodity prices weighed on consumption expenditure and the FMCG sector.
Amidst a challenging operating environment as stated above, the Company delivered a resilient performance during the quarter. Gross Revenue stood at Rs. 20,360 crores representing a robust growth of 16.0% YoY. PBT (before exceptional items) and PAT stood at Rs. 6,755 crores and Rs. 5,078 crores respectively. Earnings Per Share for the quarter stood at Rs. 4.06.
Despite the near-term headwinds, the Indian economy continues to be extremely resilient amidst a sluggish global economy on the back of multi-dimensional and purposeful policy interventions by the Government and its thrust on creating physical, digital, agri and rural infrastructure. India continues to be acknowledged as one of the fastest growing major economies in the world with significant headroom for growth over the medium and long-term. A favourable demographic profile, increasing affluence, rapid urbanisation and accelerated digital adoption represent some of the key structural drivers of growth of the Indian economy. Expectations of a good crop output, anticipated moderation in inflation, improving agri terms of trade, and the Government's thrust on public infrastructure & the rural sector augur well for a pick-up in consumption demand.
