I shall now hand over the call to the management for the opening remarks. Over to you, sir. Siddartha Cherukuri: Good afternoon, everyone. And welcome to second quarter earnings conference call FY27. We are pleased to report another quarter of steady performance building on momentum established during the first quarter and reflecting the resilience of our business amid a challenging global operating environment. During the quarter, our consolidated operating revenue grew by approximately 7% Y-o-Y basis to INR430 crores, while EBITDA increased by 10% and profit after tax grew by 8% on a year-on-year basis. First half of FY27, we delivered a revenue growth of over 15%, accompanied by similar growth in profit after tax. Geopolitical situation, particularly in West Asia, continues to impact international shipping and freight market. During the quarter gone by, our shipping and forwarding expense increased to 8.8% of operating revenue compared to 5.9% in the preceding quarter of this financial year. We have been able to sustain our operating margins despite continued pressure from elevated logistics costs and uncertainty in the end-user market. Our ability to serve both domestic and international market also provides us with greater flexibility in responding to changing market dynamics. Coming to our individual chemistries, in our Chrome business, we continue to focus on improving our product mix through a shift towards higher-value-added specialty derivatives. This remains an important part of our long-term strategy, enabling us to strengthen our competitive positioning and improve margin profile in the coming years. We are also pleased to share an important strategic development in our chromium business. During the quarter, we entered into a joint venture agreement with DCX Chrome, France, to establish a manufacturing facility for high-purity chrome metal in Visakhapatnam, with a proposed annual capacity of 6,000 metric tons of chrome metal. This initiative represents a significant step in our strategy of moving further up the value chain and expanding into specialized chrome products. Our Barium business continues to remain an important and stable contributor to our operations, and we continue to achieve solid cash flow generations. We remain focused on Page 2 of 15 Vishnu Chemicals Limited November 06, 2026 strengthening its cost competitiveness through operational efficiencies, and further backward integration. And also looking at other value-added products which can be used in the MLCC and other battery applications in the related chemistry. In Strontium, continue to focus on scaled-up operations, expanding market opportunities, and improving contributions from this business. Strontium carbonate will progressively strengthen our diversified specialty chemical portfolio alongside these initiatives; we remain committed to improving our energy efficiency and reduce our dependency on conventional power sources. We plan to add approximately 20 MW of solar power capacity, which will increase our solar power generation capacity to nearly 6x from current levels. Our diversified product portfolio, balanced geography revenue mix, increased focus on value-added chemistries, and ongoing investments in forward integrations provide us with multiple avenues for future growth. With that, I will now hand over to Mr. Hanumant to take you through our financial performance for quarter in a greater detail. Thank you. Over to you.
