Commenting on the quarterly results, Dr. Chandra Kumar Jain, Chairman & Managing Director of Gulshan Polyols, said,

It is really appreciable that your Company is emerging stronger and healthier and is scaling new heights. During the quarter, we worked diligently by assuring employees safety while continiuing to serve our customers by running our operations successfully. The 9 months results demonstrate that our business strategy is working well which is evident by revenue growth of 50% in 9MFY22 . I am glad to say that we are setting new precedents and marking higher from our own performance and financial numbers and moving ahead quarter on quarter.

Among other segments; the Grain Processing business has grown significantly as it has contributed to a revenue growth by Rs 21220.82 lakh in 9MFY22 vs 9MFY11, up by 55% of comparative total revenue growth, due to good and continuous demand.

Furhther the ethanol and distillery segment is doing well in producing and supply of ethanol to oil marketing companies and other public sector companies. It has contributed into revenue growth by Rs 5833.64 lakhs in 9MFY22 vs 9MFY21 which is at 67%.

Growth continues accelerating in Q3 with resilient operating margins. Your company is combatting the global coal crisis which has led to increase in power and fuel cost by 70%, and in addition to this, a rise in raw material price by 33% in Q3FY22 (YOY) has affected the profitability and hence the bottomline. Despite that, Company is continuously focusing on achieving its targets by constantly improving its sales volumes, sales price realization and optimizing cost wherever possible.  A sequential growth in  revenues and a consistent demand in the Grain processing and Ethanol segment, is driving growth for  the Company.

Simultaneously, we continue to strengthen employees value proposition including health and wellness measures, re-skilling programs, appropriate compensation interventions, ESOPs and enhanced career growth opportunities. Our recent priority has been to vaccinate our employees with agility and we have been holding various vaccination drives at our plants across the country, towards this endeavor. I am happy to report that at  present  more  than 70%  of our employees are  vaccinated across the organization with at least one shot of the Vaccine.

I feel overjoyed to reiterate and announce that the Company has signed and executed a Long Term Offtake Agreement on January 8, 2022, for our upcoming Standalone dedicated ethanol plant of 500 KLPD at M P A K V N Industrial Area, Boregaon, Madhya Pradesh and 250 KLPD Ethanol Plant at Industrial Growth Centre, Matia, District Goalpara, Assam for supply of 8.91 Crores Liters and 3.96 Crores Liters per annum  "Indigenous Denatured Anhydrous Ethanol", respectively to Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) under Ethanol Blending Petroleum Program to meet ethanol requirements for 20 % blending by year 2025 by using corn/maize and rice combination. This is achievable due to constant conviction and faith of all Stakeholders in the Company.

We are proud, that our strengthened Boardroom and Executive team have demonstrated expert leadership, and our employees are demonstrating commitment in delivering higher volumes. We are setting up and expanding your company for its next phase of growth as construction is going on in full swing in Madhya Pradesh 500 KLPD Ethanol plant. The orders for major plant and machinery have already  been  placed.  Additional  land  has  been  purchased  around  surrounding  areas  to  fulfill operational requirements and to support expansion.  Company has also started the land and site development work at its Assam Location for setting up a 250 KLPD Ethanol plant.

The recovery in demand is getting better Quarter on Quarter, credible resumption of supply chain and logistics, cost & cash management and a vigorous boost in production has helped us to deliver strong performance. The three quarters or say 3/4 of FY22, already delivered desired results, reflecting a sequential growth, signaling an awe-inspiring year ahead for the company which would definitely built us in achieving our targeted vision

I wish to extend my gratitude to all employees, customers, suppliers, bankers, investors and other stakeholders who have equally contributed in the exceptional growth of your Company. 

Business/Future Outlook by company

 §  Construction and other related activities are at full swing for Madhya Pradesh 500 KLPD Ethanol Plant. The company believe to commence production soon in 2023.

 §  The company has also started the land and site development work at its Assam Location for setting up a 250 KLPD Ethanol plant.

 §  Recently, Finance minister, Nirmala Sitharaman said in her Budget speech that blended  fuel is a priority for government. To encourage the efforts for blending of fuel, unblended  fuel shall attract an additional differential excise duty with effect from 1st day of October  2022. Petrol not blended with ethanol will be costlier from October, which would prompt retailers, especially private oil companies, to switch to blended fuel across the country.

 §  The company is on track with its expansion plans at Grain Processing Units located at Muzaffarnagar and Bharuch.

 §  The company is seeing improvement in demand quarter by quarter including Q3 22. Overall, it expects strong and positive performance in all its segments in last quarter too.
