Management comment:

Commenting on the results, Dr. Rajib K Mishra, Director (M&BD) & CMD Incharge, PTC India Ltd., said

"Overall, this quarter has been a mixed bag in terms of volume and margins. While volume grew by 5% for the quarter, the company traded over 70 Billion Units for the 9M ending Dec -2021. The growth has been driven by short term trades and the exchange traded segment. Due to seasonal variations, Q3 is a lean season in terms of volume and realisation is also tepid as govt. allocation to discoms flows majorly in Q4 of financial year.

During the quarter, long term including cross border volumes faced some scheduling issues resulting in less than expected growth in traded volumes. The same is also evident in the financial numbers. Our consultancy business continues to make deeper inroads with a 40% increase in consultancy income and winning orders in newer segments. As reported through form IV filing with CERC, PTC has scheduled around 87 Billion Units in FY 22.

PTC is committed to make continual investments in its people and processes to build capabilities and drive solutions. We are confident that these will drive our growth going forward. "
