MarginsMargins compressed globally by energy/freight; expanded in India on volume efficiencies.

Management confidenceBalanced: confident in India/Agri; cautious on global industrial soda ash pricing.

Growth

Outlook

Risks

Chinese soda ash inventory hits record highs; US/UK margin pressure from high logistics and energy costs.
