“We are currently operating at 85-90 percent capacity and we are planning heavy capex. We are taking up our non-stick cookware production from 6 million to 12 million and pressure cooker production from 5 million to 9 million pieces. We are sitting at about Rs 600 crore of cash,” Jagannathan told CNBC-TV18.

On demand, he said, “The situation is very buoyant across product lines, across regions. In fact, both premium and mass segments are doing well. Therefore, demand environment remains healthy.”

We have increased prices by 5 percent as metal prices have increased, said Jagannathan.
