Atul Ltd 2020-21

We have added this section for the last three years to give a better understanding to the investors about our Company. We have titled the components the same way as used conventionally and mentioned key strengths our Company has developed as well as improvements we are endeavouring so as to make its business model as robust as possible. We are working to formalise environmental, social and governance reporting. The graphs below may overall reflect a reasonable growth, but it may have been possible for our Company to do far better. We say this because, in some of the sub-segments, competitors have performed better than us. The idea to look at the past is not to regret, but learn, improve, and face the future with confidence.
