margin

Future growth expectations in earnings/operating earnings/profits/EPS?

- Volumes have been stable with no significant increase expected in the next quarter; capacity utilization is around 70% with some increase anticipated in FY'27, but details will be clearer by May-June 2026. - EBITDA margins are difficult to predict due to volatility in sulphur prices; EU trade deal is margin-neutral, while the US trade deal is expected to reduce discounting, potentially improving margins. - Current challenges include high sulphur prices offsetting benefits from anti-dumping duties; margins have remained stable but not improved due to raw material cost inflation. - The company’s strategy focuses on capturing market share, especially in the domestic market, supported by favorable policies and expected growth in the Indian tyre industry by 7-8% in FY'26. - Sulphur price trends and trade deal impacts remain key variables influencing operating profits and EPS growth outlook for FY'27.
