Essel Propack Ltd. expects its global revenue to grow 15 percent in the year ended March 2019 on account of an increase in demand.
“FY19 would be far superior to the previous year, as an uptick in demand is seen across the globe,” Chairman Ashok Goel told BloombergQuint in an interview.
The company's financials in the March quarter were affected mainly because of unexpectedly weak performance in the European market, Goel said, adding that it was a one-off as the manufacturer of packaging material failed to meet the required timeline for some businesses.
