Commenting on the results, Mr. Deepak Jalan, Managing Director, Linc Pen & Plastics Ltd. said:

“Despite the pandemic continuing to be a threat to the stationery and writing instruments industry, Linc grew revenues to near pre-Covid levels. The creditable factor was that the Company posted a profit before tax above the pre-Covid level despite a sharp increase in raw material (plastic granules and ball pen ink) prices. Linc moved product stockings from stationery shops to general stores, widening distribution coverage and the possibility of impulse purchase. The Company’s inventories and debtors witnessed a decline of Rs. 880 lakh and Rs. 400 lakh respectively. Borrowings of the Company declined by Rs. 500 lakh during the quarter under review. The Company continued to focus on increasing the proportion of value-added products.”
