D. Ram Reddy, Managing Director, Balaji Amines, said, “During the first quarter of FY25, we achieved a 5% year-on-year increase in volume, however, our top line has been impacted by decrease in realisation led by decrease in Raw material pricing. We are actively managing these challenges and are confident in our ability to navigate through them while maintaining our profitability.

The Pharma market is showing encouraging signs of improvement, positioning us well for future growth. Although the Agro Chem market has been slow this quarter, we anticipate improvements in the upcoming quarters as market conditions stabilize.

Our capital expenditure projects are progressing as planned. The commissioning of our methylamine plant is on schedule for Q3, and the Dimethyl ether project is expected to be completed by the end of this financial year. These projects are advancing as per the scheduled timelines and are set to significantly enhance our portfolio.

Looking ahead, we maintain a positive outlook for long-term opportunities, anticipating growth and increased prospects in the fiscal year 2024-25. We remain dedicated to delivering value to our shareholders and stakeholders through strategic investments and a continued focus on operational excellence.”
