The moderation in the Chinese economy has had an impact across the commodities spectrum but we do not expect any further downside. Raising of chrome ore is on track to cross 0.6 million tonnes during the year for the first time with a further hike in FY25, and we are looking to tie up hybrid renewable power for our expansion project which will reduce our carbon footprint. We remain confident of superior performance on account of our fully integrated business model and long term debt free Balance Sheet, and shall increase smelting capacity to take advantage of the available resource base.”
