Commenting on the Company's performance for Q1FY27, Mr. Sameer Gupta, Managing Director, Apollo Pipes (APL) said, "The PVC industry was impacted during Q1FY27 driven by sharp fluctuations in polymer prices. The steep price correction during April prompted channel partners to defer purchases and rationalize inventories, resulting in subdued demand across Home Plumbing and Bath Fittings industry.
As inventory levels across the distribution channel normalize and demand gradually revives, the Company expects business activity and volume growth to improve over the coming quarters. With PVC prices stabilizing, we are confident of delivering a significantly better performance in H2FY27.
The company has a robust pipeline of new and value-added products and is confident of delivering an improved performance in the coming year and creating long term value for all stakeholders. We are on track to expand our annual capacity to 288,000 Ton in the next 2 years from current 2,40,000 Ton. We remain committed to fund business expansion from internal cashflow generation without leveraging balance sheet."
