Commenting on the performance, Mr. Deepak C. Mehta, Chairman & Managing Director, said, "Deepak Nitrite has delivered a strong all-round performance during the quarter under review led by healthy demand in the domestic market. Amidst the backdrop of a challenging business environment characterised by rising trade tensions as well as volatile prices of crude price and related petrochemicals, we have delivered double digit growth of 22% in Revenues and 24% in Profit After Tax."
The 'Greenfield Project' to manufacture phenol and acetone under Deepak Phenolics will commence commercial production shortly and this will be a significant milestone in Deepak Nitrite's growth trajectory. It will also serve as a springboard for downstream products which are by themselves import substitutes. A growing domestic demand deserves a stable domestic supply."
