Despite this, we have managed to give satisfactory performance and are now focusing on strategies to take the Company to next leg of growth. The NGT ruling is past us and we have resumed most of our operations at almost full capacity."
He also said "We remain optimistic on the growth prospects of the Company and are confident of achieving improved performance going forward.A notable highlight is that our Engineered Stone project in Jaipur is completed and we are waiting for improvement in the global situation to start accepting orders. We believe this new asset will take the company to the next level of growth."
