Outlook
The business environment in recent years has been very complex for a variety of social and geopolitical reasons. DCM Shriram has not only been resilient during a tough operating environment but also its businesses have emerged stronger. This would have not been possible without the group's relentless efforts in increasing scale, multiple revenue streams, optimizing costs, building efficiencies & flexibilities in the businesses and more importantly the financial discipline.
The Chemicals is one of our largest businesses and has given us good returns over the period and is expected to continue as one of the key growth drivers for the Company. We are the second largest Caustic Soda producer in the country. We have and will continue to invest in order to increase scale, reduce costs and add multiple revenue streams to enable growth and add value to this business.
