Ajay Kumar Saraogi: Thank you, Vaibhav. Good afternoon, and welcome to Q2 and the six months ended 30th
September call. The Board of Directors met on 24th of October to review the company's
performance for the quarter ended 30th September as well as the half year ended 30th September.
The major highlights. The net sale during this quarter increased by 21% year-on-year to
INR3,561 crores as compared to INR2,932 crores. However, as compared to previous quarter,
it was down by 9%. Half year, it was higher by 21% at INR7,457 crores as compared to
INR6,167 crores.
This net -- the increase in net sale is primarily because of increase in the grey cement volumes.
For the half year, the grey cement volumes have increased by 19% -- 19.38% at 11.3 million

tons as compared to 9.49 million tons. Also, the white cement the volume has increased by 19%
at 10.32 lakh tons in the six-month period as compared to 8.62 lakh tons in the previous year.
The EBITDA standalone -- sorry, I read the consolidated numbers last time. The -- I would
repeat again. The standalone financial results quarter-on-quarter had actually increased by 28%
at INR3,516 crores as compared to INR2,754 crores. And for the half-year period, it is higher
by 25% at INR7,301 crores as compared to INR5,823 crores.
The EBITDA during this quarter was INR500 crores as compared to INR440 crores in the
previous year and INR639 crores in the previous quarter. For the six-month period, it is higher
by 2% at INR1,138 crores as compared to INR1,113 crores.
The Board while reviewing this also noted that during this period, we have commissioned the
wall putty plant at Nathdwara of 0.6 million tons. So that increases our total white cement and
putty capacity to 3.65 million tons. And they reviewed the working of the projects, basically at
Jaisalmer. So at the integrated site, the work is in advance stage and it is on schedule. And we
are confident to commission the plant in first half of FY28.
Similarly, at the grinding stations, at Bikaner, the work is also is progressing and we are
confident of commissioning in the first half of FY28. The Bathinda, we have received the
approvals, and the work should shortly start. And there also, I think within September -- we are
targeting within September 2027, we should commission the plant.
The Board also noted and approved the JK Maxx proposal, which was to put up a white cement
-- a paint plant of 75,000 KL and with the overall cost of INR130 crores, which is within the
overall limit sanctioned for the paint business of INR600 crores. So with this investment, we
would be just submitting the overall investment in the paint business.
And as the working with the paint business is already on course of break-even in this fiscal, we
do not see that going forward there would be any further requirement of any investment in the
paint business. So with this and the future investment can be made by the paint business on their
own.
As regards the balance sheet, the gross debt position as on 30th September is INR6,255 crores
as compared to INR5,136 crores. The cash available as on 30th September is INR1,684 crores
as compared to INR1,755 crores.
The net debt is INR4,571 crores as compared to INR3,370 crores. The net debt to equity is 0.63
and net debt to EBITDA is 1.95. These are the major highlights. If you have any question, I'll
now take up the questions and answers. Thank you.
