- The company has diversified beyond carbon chemistry into new fields, enhancing its capabilities and pioneering advanced solutions globally.
- The acquisition of Aroform, a specialty chemicals player, has provided access to an export-oriented platform, with expectations of strong improvement in operational and financial performance in FY26.
- Expansion projects are on track, with new facilities in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu expected to boost sales volume growth.
- The company is actively participating in the growing battery chemicals market, with a pilot plant for nano silicon under construction, expected to enhance battery performance and reduce emissions.
- FY25 was challenging for Aroform due to a weak business environment and corrections in yellow phosphorus prices, impacting performance.
- The domestic market for carbon black is expected to have muted demand, with growth largely in lower single digits.
- Russia's dumping of carbon black in Asia and India at low prices has pressured margins and required competitive pricing strategies.
