Moldtek Packaging Limited, manufacturer of injection moulded rigid plastic packaging containers, has posted a net profit of ₹21.71 crore in the quarter ended June 30, 2022, as against ₹12 crore in the same quarter last year, showing a growth of 79.68 per cent.

It registered a revenue of ₹208 crore in the quarter, as against ₹134 crore in the comparable quarter last year, showing a growth of about 55 per cent.

“The volume and PAT [profit after tax] registered in the quarter are the highest in the history of the company.

He said the company would invest ₹125 crore on capacity expansion this financial year, including the addition of 4,700 tonnes a year at its Sultanpur and Daman units, and 2,600 tonnes a year at Daman, Visakhapatnam, Hyderabad and Kanpur units.
