This resulted in a 331 bps QoQ expansion in EBITDA margin to 16.7%. Looking ahead, we are confident on continuing our momentum and improve our cost structure further. We are well on track to increase our capacity to 119 MTPA by the end of FY’27, with the commissioning of Dahej (1.2 MTPA), Salai Banwa (2.4 MTPA), Bathinda (1.2 MTPA) Jodhpur (2 MTPA), Kalamboli (1 MTPA) and Warisaliganj (2.4 MTPA).
