The expansion in company’s losses were mainly attributable to the improvement in Urea/Dap retention prices, tax reversal of Rs 184.5 million and jump in finance cost by 89% due to increase in interest rates and working capital requirements.

During the period, company also witnessed an increase in its income from other sources by 31.4%YoY, but it failed to provide an adequate buffer to the company’s bottom-line.
