“The company performance displayed strong momentum, anchored by domestic sugar and ethanol businesses despite the early closure of the crushing season. “Domestic demand growth, improved capacity utilisation and higher net realisation, especially in sugar and refinery businesses, resulted in stable Q4 performance,” said Shree Renuka Sugars executive chairman Atul Chaturvedi.
