These investments in Speciality /Industrial Chemicals will further augment our endeavour to create long term value for our shareholders."
Commenting on the outlook, he said, "Looking ahead, we believe the global uncertainty will prevail and we will remain committed to drive growth in this challenging time through focussed and agile operational discipline."
