Operating profit margin was up 5.8% YoY to 15.5% (estimate ~16%). Adjusted profit after tax stood at Rs 4.9 billion (+72% YoY; 4% above our estimates).
The management remains positive on industry outlook as higher budgetary allocation to infrastructure, government’s push for affordable housing, and pick up in construction activities are expected to drive cement demand. It targets to increase green energy share to 60% by FY28 from ~9% in FY24.
