During the period under review, the topline earnings of the company are expected to increase on an account of a significant increase in local dispatches.

While the gross profits of the company are predicted to recede in 1HFY20 due to severe price competition among players and the higher cost of production.

Moreover, the company is expected to bear an operating loss along with further damages expected from colossal finance cost, pertaining to excessive borrowing especially for newly installed plant coupled with high-interest rates.
