Business Outlook:

Commenting on the company’s performance, Mr. Sajjan Bhajanka, Chairman, Century Plyboards (I) Ltd said “Q1FY23 (Q1 being a leanest quarter in a financial year) ended with the company achieving revenue which was just 1.5% lower compared to Q4FY22 sales (Q4 being a peak quarter in a financial year). Despite the sustained input cost pressure in core segments of plywood & laminate, we have been able to mitigate a large part of our gross margin pressure by taking corresponding price increases and also through operating leverage.”
