The EBITDA margin improved to 9.0% from 7.0% in the a year-ago quarter, driven by an improved business mix, margin expansion, cost discipline, and execution efficiency. 

 

The company reported a negative change in inventories of finished goods, stock-in-trade, work-in-progress and scrap at INR 1.69 billion during the quarter, significantly higher than the INR 615 million recorded in the corresponding quarter last year. The exports contributed 29% to the company's top line in the June quarter.

Segment margin improved by 232 basis points year-on-year, reflecting a better product mix, disciplined commodity management and operating efficiencies.
