The amalgamation between JTL and Chetan Industries Limited has been completed. This will aid us to become a stronger and dominant player in India by increasing our market share and penetration. This will double the number of dealers and distributors. This will enhance our manufacturing capabilities by 1,00,000 MTPA out of which 50% will be focused on producing value-added products. Now, all 4 plants have galvanizing facilities, hence the value-added product mix will further keep increasing as a trend. This is in line with our future growth target of reaching 20 lakh MTPA capacity.”
Dhruv Singla, Executive Director & CFO said, “During Q4 FY23 and FY23, we at JTL Industries Ltd. recorded our highest ever quarterly and yearly sales volume that aided us in healthy revenue growth and profitability. Revenue is expected to grow by 30-35% from FY23 to FY24 led by increasing sales volume, and greater contribution of value-added products in the sales mix. EBITDA for FY24 is expected to stay within similar lines as witnessed in FY23.”
