Commenting on the Results, Mr. Ashok Gupta, Managing Director, Shalimar Paints said,

"It has been challenging year and company has witnessed a disruption that had a devasting impact on the Company's performance. Despite the initial phase of reopening of the economy, the unforeseen challenges & crisis of 2°4 wave of COVID-19 hit the pause button again.

Commodity prices too witnessed an unprecedented surge. The company has felt the impact of increasing raw material cost over the past few quarters. Also there has been some disruption in transport facilities leading to increase in freight cost. These all factors have impacted our profitability.

Unlocks, and the big sentiment booster of vaccination rollout are expected to spur consumer spending and boost business confidence. The pandemic also brought about certain fundamental shifts in the industry. Home improvement and focus on health & hygiene are expected to remain key growth catalysts. With the uptake in the real estate sector on the back of consumers buying houses we expect volumes to pick up in the coming quarters.

We believe we are working in the right direction for a long-term sustainable growth".
