The company said that it expects 20% demand growth in Thailand from Q1 to Q2 based on existing market outlook.
Sunil Chordia, chairman & managing director, said, “After some quarters of sluggish offtake and a decline in financial performance, the company reported a marked improvement in Q1 FY25. This improvement was the result of demand exceeding supply for bead wire. This was influenced by an increased offtake of tyres (our direct sectorial customer) and a decline in imports. We expect sustained performance improvement in the subsequent quarters following the commercialization of our new Chennai plant coupled with maximized utilization of our Pithampur and Thailand manufacturing facilities. Based on existing realities, we expect improved performance visibility for the rest of the financial year."
Rajratan Global Wire is a tyre ancillary, manufacturing bead wire, a critical component used in the manufacture of tyres.
