Shobhan Mittal, managing director & CEO, Greenpanel Industries, said: MDF realisations and margins improved during the quarter. However, recurrence of Covid, State elections and inflation impacted MDF volumes. We are targeting to be net debt-free for our existing business by June 2022. Widening distribution reach and focus on small urban clusters is supporting sustained volume growth and reduced working capital outlay.?
