“We are confident of sustaining the performance in the coming quarters and delivering a strong year,” he added.
According to the company, global demand is likely to remain muted and gradual improvement is expected in domestic demand during the rest of the year on account of continued investments in infrastructure, healthy monsoons, favourable macros and festive demand. Commodities are likely to remain range-bound.
