Commenting on the performance for the quarter, Dinesh Shahra, managing director, Ruchi Soya Industries, said, “Our margins would have been higher but for the impact of higher input cost of imported materials due to export duty regime changes by the Government of Indonesia relating to the palm segment. The industry is expecting that certain measures at macro level, likely to be taken by the Government of India in the near term, will be conducive for the domestic industry.
