Ahmedabad : GHCL, India’s leading Chemical Company, on Saturday announced its financial results for Q4 FY23.
Commenting on the financial performance, Mr. R S Jalan, MD, GHCL Limited said “In the last quarter, the global Soda Ash demand-supply situation was by and large balanced. We did take a cut in the Soda ash prices last month mostly attributable to a dip in global energy prices, making it possible to pass on the benefits to our customers. Going forward, the outlook for the business continues to remain positive due to improvements in economic activity and demand increase for a wider set of applications like solar glass and lithium ion batteries. As we move into the next fiscal, we shall continue our focus on enhancing operational excellence, executing expansion projects and implementing growth initiatives focused on digitalization, sustainable transformation and value creation for our stakeholders”.
