  • Chairman's Message Financial Performance – Q3FY 23 Income Statement Shareholding Pattern
  • Subsidiaries

This quarter has been challenging in terms of performance. The overall volumes were impacted by the prolonged monsoon season and the festive period in the month of October 2022. However, there has been some recovery in demand during November and December, indicating a positive trend going forward.

The consolidated revenue for the quarter stood at ₹1091 crores, compared to ₹1068 crores from the corresponding period of the previous year, representing a 2% growth.

The EBITDA margin for Q3FY23 was 12.20%, a decline of 500 basis points compared to the same period in the previous year. The primary cause of this decline was disruption in natural gas supply and an unprecedented increase in gas prices. However, fuel cost has started to come down since December 2022, primarily due to the increased use of alternative fuels and some fall in gas prices. The full impact of these changes is expected to be visible by March 2023.

Overall, the company has seen decent growth in the first nine months, with a 12% increase in volume and a 22% increase in revenue. The company is dedicated to its growth strategy, which includes expanding market share and increasing the number of dealers across India, particularly in unrepresented territories. The company is confident that its strong foundation and commitment to excellence will continue to drive its success in the upcoming quarters, both in terms of sales and profitability.
