    PERFORMANCE REVIEW

    Iron & Steel sector has seen positive results in the past financial year after many years of poor performance. This is mainly due to two reasons, first being higher budget allocation by Central Government on infrastructure expenditure and measures to stop cheap steel imports from China. Overall it has been a good year for your company. Our revenues have increased by 12.4% and EBIDTA increased by 16.7%. Earnings per share have also increased by 20%. The growth has been steady despite many other players entering the market. We have been able to show good performance due to our client’s trust in our product and their readiness to pay a premium for the same.
