Full analysisRevenue guidance
Category 3- The company targets a revenue growth of 15-20% for the financial year, maintaining a growth trajectory of around 20% as a long-term expectation.
- Volume growth in carbon steel is expected to be significant, approximately 25-30%, due to declining prices, but stainless steel volume growth will be modest as the focus is on higher value-added products rather than tonnage.
- Utilization rates are expected to remain better supported by good monsoons and stable demand, with no major signs of demand destruction.
- Growth drivers include expansion in petrochemical plants, refinery capacity expansions, and demand from water projects in Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh.
- New opportunities in CGD (City Gas Distribution) projects and oil & gas sectors also contribute to growth prospects.
- The company prioritizes high-value and import-substitute stainless steel products to maintain margins despite moderate volume increases.
