Commenting on the results, Mr. C.S. Nopany, Chairperson, Magadh Sugar & Energy Ltd said: “Indian Sugar Industry is at the midst of long term growth trajectory. Strong export demand and thrust towards ethanol is driving the domestic sugar market to deliver healthy growth. The current sugar season is expected to witness a healthy crop, thus enabling India to continue to cater to export demand. However, in the state of Bihar, unseasonal rainfall and high-water logging in the fields resulted in lower yield and dented recovery, during the current sugar season. The Government of India continues its thrust towards ethanol to reduce carbon emissions and move towards green energy. The recent focus on flexi fuel engines is envisaged to further add towards ethanol demand in India. The recently expanded Ethanol capacity will drive the growth for the company going forward. With focus towards strengthening balance sheet. Your company has reduced outside liabilities substantially and liquidated inventories during this fiscal. Current fiscal has given the company to adopt necessary steps and thus enable the future endeavors.”
