Managing Director’s Comments
Mr. Alok Krishna, Managing Director of Tata Metaliks said: “Pig Iron business was adversely affected by weak market sentiments of commodity prices.Domestic demand of Pig Iron is expected to firm up in the coming quarters as utilization levels in several segments like General Castings and Agriculture are likely to improve. Imported coal price is expected to remain range bound as indicated by trend of Coal futures.
The Company’s DIPipe business has a healthy order book for FY’24 executionbecause of robust demand for Government’s water infrastructure projects.The Company is geared up and well positioned to meet this high demand in the upcoming quarters through additional volumes from the new DI Pipe plant. The new DI Pipe plant has been ramping up well with volumes increasing Q-o-Q.”
