“Our focus on resource security, integrated operations and value-added products continues to strengthen our competitive position and support sustainable growth,” said the company’s Whole-Time Director and Chief Executive Officer, Rajesh Kumar in a statement.
The Board of Directors approved the company's first interim dividend of eight Indian rupees per equity share, bringing the cumulative dividend payout for the quarter to over 3,000 crore Indian rupees.
