Mr. Ashwin Muthiah, Chairman – Sicagen India and Founder Chairman, A M International, Singapore:
“I am happy to note that we have recorded exceptional growth in our profit during the quarter.

We hope to continue to keep up the positive momentum and create value for our stakeholders through the year.”

The Industrial Packaging Division  division has secured an order for 10,500 drums from Hindustan Organic Chemicals Limited (HOCL), Ernakulam. The engineering division secured an order for the construction of eight deep-sea fishing boats. It is expecting more orders over the next few quarters.
