Mr. Ashish Bansal

Managing Director

I am pleased to report that POCL has begun FY26 with its strongest quarterly performance to date, driven by solid operational execution. Revenue, EBITDA, and PAT grew by 36%, 82%, and 90% YoY, respectively, supported by a rise in production and sales volumes across Lead and Copper. Crossing the 7% EBITDA margin is a significant milestone in our journey of sustained value creation. POCL remains well on course to achieve its Target 2030—centered on capacity expansion, 15%+ volume growth, 20%+ revenue CAGR, improved profitability, and a higher share of value-added products. With a clear strategic roadmap, strong financial health, operational discipline, favorable regulatory environment, experienced leadership, and strong stakeholder backing, POCL is well-positioned for long-term, consistent growth.
