This acquisition is expected to facilitate access to a captive open-access energy model in Gujarat, helping the company to enhance renewable energy usage while lowering energy costs.

Commenting on the results, Mr. Himanshu K. Patel, Managing Director of HLE Glascoat, stated, “Despite global challenges over the past six quarters, that delayed capex decisions by chemical companies and other user industries, we are pleased to report a stable performance for the quarter and half-year. This performance was supported by a robust order book, which grew by approximately 27 per cent sequentially.”
