Profitability & Margins

Optimum plant utilization is around 70% to 75%, expected to be reached by FY28, with FY27 utilization slightly lower due to market conditions.
EBITDA per ton is expected to stabilize around Rs. 19,000, with potential improvement to Rs. 20,000–21,000 per ton if raw material cost stabilizes.
EBITDA margins may remain around 10% in FY27 due to ongoing geopolitical and supply chain challenges, slightly lower than FY26's 13%.
Return ratios (ROCE) might see some dilution initially due to new equity and capacity addition but expected to maintain 20%+ in coming years.
