In the automotive battery business – both domestic and exports – saw considerable volumes from the OEM and aftermarket segments when compared to the last quarter. The boom in telecom sector acted as the major driver for the industrial battery volumes which witnessed strong growth. Under the New Energy business, we initiated the supply of battery packs to the telecom sector.

Additionally, we have strengthened our international operations by entering the North American market and securing a substantial order book.”
“I am happy to share that our pack and charger business continues to grow at a healthy click, with a good appreciation being shown for our localized chargers from a couple of our strategic customers.
