* Total revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.6% over FY20-23 to Rs. 2243 cr. EBITDA over the same period is expected to grow at 12.7% CAGR to Rs 570 cr with margin contraction of 130bps to 25.4% in FY23 and PAT is expected to grow at 76.0% to Rs 224 cr with margin expansion of 720bps to 10.0% over FY20-23.

* At Rs 258 cr the automotive – aluminum products segment had a 17.3% revenue share in FY20. Although the revenue growth was tepid at 5% CAGR over the last 3 years to Rs 258 cr, EBITDA margins expansion of 644 bps to 16.7% have more than made up for the slower revenue growth.
