1⃣ Right to WIN

"We are very focused on ensuring that what we invest in, it is something that is sustainable in the medium/long term & wherever possible we tie up with good anchor customers so that but we should be able to manage the biz. in the worst of times,."

2⃣ INTEGERATION - Like a tree with strong roots, Deepak has and is growing taller with fresh branches and new off-shoots to fulfill its growth aspirations.

So, integration in backward, forward, horizontal & vertical.

P1: Simple process
P2: Integrated process

3⃣ IMPORT Substitution: "Import substitution has always been an integral aspect of the Company’s business strategy. To take advantage of the positive demand landscape, it will continue to introduce value added downstream products that can replace imports."

So, let's explore the 'Basic Chemical' of Deepak Nitrite:
👉It is high volume & low/moderate margin across organic & inorganic chemicals.

👉Entry barrier due to the large scale & efficient operations

👉This segment not only entails limited margin, but is also exposed to crude price volatility, leading to unpredictable revenue
👉Act as a cashcow
👉The % share in overall revenue is on decreasing trend
👉New product additions/capacity expansion will drive value

Next segment is 'Fine and Specialty Chemicals (FSC)':
