These efforts will help us replicate and improve our strong performance, going forward.”

Tilanknagar Industries’ EBITDA grew 77 per cent to ₹38.4 crore (₹21.7 crore). Its EBITDA margins expanded over 300 basis points. 

In the quarter under review, the company achieved a year-on-year volume growth of 42 per cent against an overall IMFL industry growth of about 5 per cent. Tilaknagar Industries’ sales volumes increased to 25.1 lakh cases (17.7 lakh cases), said the company.

Refinancing debt

Tilaknagar Industries said that it is in the final stages of refinancing debt, owed to Edelweiss Asset Reconstruction Company (EARC). This strategic move will offer the company flexibility in managing cash flows in the immediate future and will provide an entry into regular banking channels, said the company.
