“We have demonstrated solid financial and operational performance during the quarter and reported around 30% top-line and earnings growth. This was mainly owing to strong volume off-take registered in the Home Textiles segment. Host of strategic initiatives and efforts undertaken in the past like strengthening our marketing team, expanding our global reach and widening our product offerings have started yielding desired results, and I am confident that this momentum would continue throughout the year.
Going forward, we remain focused on our marketing efforts and are well on track to optimally utilize our global scale capacities over the next two years.
