(Page 23) - Specialty oil lubricant segment is growing at 8%, which is about 2.5-3 times the overall market growth of 2%-3%. (Page 34) - Domestic transformer oil business is growing faster than the Sharjah plant operations in oil business. (Page 34) - Solar cables business is substantially growing though margins may be under some pressure due to higher volumes.
