Pellet production is expected to be higher QoQ by 32% at ~3.4 lakh tonnes on the back of stabilization of new 1.2 mtpa pellet making facility. We expect merchant pellet sales volumes of ~1.7 lakh tonne.
- EBITDA is expected to be higher by ~62% YoY at Rs1.1bn driven by higher margin pellet business. We expect EBITDA margin of 15.7%.
