Sensitivities
5 verified
Raw material prices (imported inputs)
Direction: when import input prices rise, cost of production rises; when they fall, cost falls. The filing states the company has no control over raw material prices.
Exchange rate (INR vs foreign currency)
Direction: adverse currency moves increase import costs of raw materials. The company hedges through forward contracts within approved parameters.
Price margin between products and raw materials
Profitability is driven by the margin between output prices and raw material input prices. Direction: a widening margin lifts profit; a narrowing margin reduces it.
2 more statements
Rainfall and seasonal demand
