  • Industrial Essentials (Soda Ash): 884 Kts vs 828 Kts (PQ) vs 802 Kts (PY)

Key Performance Drivers

  • Higher Revenue YoY: Driven by higher sales volumes across products and geographies.
  • Lower EBITDA YoY: Primarily due to lower realizations in overseas subsidiaries, especially US exports to South East Asia.
  • Lower PAT YoY: Resulted from lower realizations, reduced other income, and lower joint venture income.
  • Net Debt Reduction: Attributable to the monetization of assets.

Market and Operational Highlights

  • Market Conditions: Bicarbonate demand from feed and food grades is expected to remain stable, while technical grade demand (textile sector) is likely subdued. Global soda ash demand growth is expected to remain broadly flat near-term due to weak macro conditions and excess capacity. The Middle East conflict has increased energy, raw material, and freight costs, raising production costs in Europe, Türkiye, and India.
  • Medium-to-Long-Term Outlook: Positive outlook supported by sustainability-driven demand from solar PV and EVs, coupled with potential synthetic capacity rationalization.
