Commenting on the strong financial performance Mr. Ravi Goenka, Chairman & Managing Director, said, “I am happy to share that FY 22 has been a strong year despite the headwinds that we faced on many fronts. We recorded a strong performance in both our business segments – Acetyl Intermediates (AI) and Specialty Intermediates (SI), despite the Mahad plant being shut for 50 days between July and August 2021 on account of floods. This was also compounded by high volatility in raw material costs along with logistical challenges. However, our results this year highlight the true merits and strength of our business.

Our performance this quarter was largely driven by our SI business, which performed strongly on both fronts - volume and product mix. The volumes in this quarter which mirrored what we did in the last quarter saw a richer product mix. We made an entry into US which is a new market that opened for this in this quarter. Our SI revenue grew by 74% on annual basis and 5% on a sequential basis from Q3FY22. On the AI front, this quarter, while our volumes remain strong, margins were impacted due to price corrections. Our pricing in Europe for the AI segment remained robust, and it is expected to remain so in the near future as well. AI revenue grew by 98% in FY22 from FY21, and on a quarterly basis by around 1% from Q3FY22. I am happy to share that we have successfully brought into stream part of our SI Capex, the commercial production of which has started in Q1FY23, and the rest shall begin by Q3FY23. Our FI Capex, which is being undertaken in a phased manner, remains on track and is expected to be completed by Q3FY23.

Going forward, we will continue to drive operational efficiencies and maintain our leadership position in AI, through enhanced capacities and periodic debottlenecking. For our SI segment, we are confident that new capacities will further improve our product mix, while we focus on increasing the share of contractual sales and expand geographical presence. The opportunity in our FI segment is robust, we are preparing for a phased growth beginning with agrochemicals and progressing to pharmaceuticals and industrials later. The strategy of creating a strong foundation has worked for us in our SI segment, and we are confident that we can replicate that success in our FI area as well.”
