Management Commentary

Commenting on the financial results, Mr Jayakumar Krishnaswamy, Managing Director, Nuvoco Vistas Corp said, As the industry faces continuous headwinds because of soaring fuel prices, we have increased prices to partially offset its impact; more hikes remain essential to offset the full impact. Despite a severe wallop on account of elevated energy prices in the industry, we managed our power and fuel cost effectively by leveraging internal levers and optimizing the fuel mix. In addition, our finance costs have been declining with debt repayments and effective reductions in the cost of debt over time. Moving forward, this should support profitability.”

He further added, “While the seasonally weak period and elevated fuel prices will weigh on near- term profitability, cement demand is expected to show a healthy increase in FY23 due to strong housing demand and government-led infrastructure development projects. Our focus remains on internal levers and operational efficiency while we remain committed to our expansion project at Bhiwani. We also continue to invest in de bottle-necking projects at Risda and Nimbol along with alternate fuel material handling facilities as part of our sustainability initiatives.”
