Sales volume for BOPP films has increased by 33.1% to 15,600 tons in Q2 FY 19 from 11,721 tons in Q2 FY 18 The increase in revenue from real estate is on account of sale recognition of additional units of luxury residential project, 222Rajpur in Max Estates. EBITDA has increased by 80% in Q2 FY19 compared to Q1 FY19 In spite of falling output prices we are able to remain in cash profit status Max Towers is currently under development, rentals are to start from Q4FY19 Lower PBT on account of accrual of depreciation and interest for new line for Line 5 in packaging films business Management Perspective Commenting on the Results, Mr. Sahil Vachani, Managing Director and CEO said, Q2 FY19 saw our flagship project Max Towers enter its final phase of construction. We expect construction completion and Occupation Certificate by the end of Q4FY19. So far, we have seen good traction for Max Towers from renowned domestic and global companies and are confident about converting them to tenants at marketleading rentals. We have also started the development of our second Grade A+ commercial project at Okhla and expect to complete it over the next months.

3 We had an impressive revenue growth in our Speciality Films business in Q2FY19. However, the profits were strained due to the sudden rise in the price of crude oil and increased competitiveness in the industry. With our focus primarily on innovative research, we expect our business to be more resilient in the long run with better profitability prospects. Overall, the ongoing development costs of Max Towers have created pressure on short-term profitability along with the Head Office costs which are expensed. Additionally, the depreciation and interest costs on the new manufacturing line (Line 5) of Max Speciality Films have also contributed to the strain on profits. With the imminent launch of Max Towers leading to rental income inflow as well as optimum utilization of increased Speciality Films capacity, we expect profitability pressures to ease out significantly.
