Revenues grew 31% YoY to Rs506.3 crores against our estimates of Rs475.8 crores with the main growth driver being better realizations from ATBS segment along with butyl phenols. Gross margins increased by 90bps YoY to 45.5% to Rs230.6 crores. OPM was down by 50bps YoY to 25.8% on account of sharp rise in power and fuel cost which increased by 67% YoY to Rs39.96 crores.

View: Strong ATBS growth along with decent performance from butyl phenols is likley to sustain growth momentum for the company. Sensing this, the company has already announced capex for both ATBS and butyl phenols recently.
