Thanking you, Yours faithfully, For BIRLA CORPORATION LIMITED (MANOJ KUMAR MEHTA) Company Secretary & Legal Head Encl: As above Registered Office: Birla Building, 9/1 R. N. Mukherjee Road, Kolkata-700001 | CIN: L01132WB1919PLC003334 | | www.birlacorporation.com| P: 033 6616 6745/6826; +91 33 2248 2872/7983 Birla Corporation Limited June quarter cement sales up 5%, revenue up 7%  Cement sales by volume at 5.05 mt, up 5% year-on-year  Premium cement sales by volume up 18%  Sales through trade channel up 11%  Capacity utilization at 98% Kolkata, 25 July: Maintaining high capacity utilization of 98%, Birla Corporation Limited scaled up cement sales in the June quarter to 5.05 million tons (mt), thanks to sustained gains in the trade segment in States such as Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Rajasthan. The Company’s revenue for the quarter at Rs2,669 crore represents a 7% growth over the same period last year, while net profit at Rs116 crore reflects subdued realization from cement sales and escalation in power and fuel cost. Q1/FY Q1/FY 25- 26-27 26 Change Revenue 2669 2486 7.4% Ebitda 365 379 -3.6% Cash Profit 298 308 -3.2% Net Profit 116 120 -3.3% Realisation per ton* 4947 4858 1.8% EBITDA per ton* 675 715 -5.6% *For Cement Division only Cement demand grew moderately in the June quarter, gaining momentum from the second-half of May, thanks largely to Government spending on infrastructure. But cement prices remained under pressure: price hikes introduced in April-May had to be rolled back in June amid intense competition for market share. Sales from Kundanganj and Mukutban units of RCCPL Private Limited, wholly- owned material subsidiary of the Company, rose 26% and 12%, respectively, compared to the same period last year. Under its sustained strategy, the Company continued to expand sales of its blended and premium products. Eco-friendly blended cement accounted for 88% of cement sales during the quarter, registering a volume growth of 5%. Sales of premium products grew 18% year-on-year (yoy), led by the flagship brand, Perfect Plus, which, on its own, grew 24%. Realization from cement sales for the quarter was at Rs 4,947 per ton, up almost 2% yoy, but EBITDA per ton was 6% lower at Rs 675. This was largely on account of a 5% increase in power and fuel cost. The Cement Division’s EBITDA margin for the quarter was at 13.6%, down 110 basis points from the same period last year. To offset the increase in power and fuel cost, the Company scaled up its consumption of green power to 33% for the quarter from 31% at the end of the last fiscal year. This is going to be further enhanced within the current financial year as the Company has commissioned a 5-MW solar power plant at Mukutban, which is expected to reduce carbon dioxide emission by an estimated 5,000 tons a year. Alongside, Birla Jute Mills is ramping up its solar power generation capacity to 2.6 MW from 2.1 MW. Q1/FY Q1/FY 25- 26-27 26 Change Sales (by volume) (Mn Ton) 5.05 4.79 5.4% Capacity utilisation 98% 99% -1.4% Blended cement 88% 89% -1.0% Trade channel 82% 78% 4.0% Premium cement 62% 59% 3.0% Going forward, cement demand is expected to remain muted until the end of the monsoons in August and recover from September, boosted by Government spending and construction activities in the private sector. Even with energy prices edging upward, further price hikes have been deferred till the end of monsoons, and it is expected that realization will remain weak in the near term. Given the capacity overhang and intense competition among manufacturers, meaningful recovery in cement prices could be expected only in the December quarter. Jute Division: Birla Jute Mills faced another challenging quarter with raw jute prices shooting to a record high. Coupled with acute shortage, disruption in supply of raw jute forced the division to rationalize production by reducing working days. Consequently, production during the quarter declined 27% yoy and 8% sequentially. Still, the division reported a cash profit of Rs 4.28 crore against Rs 6.41 crore in the same period last year, as domestic sales (by revenue) increased 18% yoy, and overseas sales, 13% yoy.
