Commenting on the Performance, Sahil Vachani, MD & CEO of MaxVIL said, “It has been a solid start to FY20 as it marks the commencement of our flagship office project-Max Towers.

Our lease rentals are at 40% premium to the immediate micro market thus validating the superior building specifications & services as well as acceptance of the Max brand in the real estate space. The speed and quality of Max Towers delivery is providing a strong impetus to our growth prospects in the office development space. Our other office development Max House, Okhla which recently begun construction is expected to complete by the first quarter of FY 21.

Q1 FY20 for speciality films business has seen rising demand, which has reduced oversupply in the industry. This has led to improvement in realizations and margins for our packaging films business. We also achieved a better product mix which led to a higher contribution from value-added speciality films.

Our investments subsidiary Max I. partially exited Nykaa successfully, fetching a handsome return on our investment in a short period of time.

We believe that FY20 will be a transformational year for MaxVIL with better visibility in all our businesses, stable rental cash flows from Max Towers, new projects in the real estate business & recovery in the speciality films business.”
