Management Discussion and Analysis (MDA)

Read carefully through this section and give details of three
most significant items mentioned therein
SRF maintained its momentum of growth during 2014-15 in spite of a
global economy thatremained sluggish. The year saw the Company reporting
marginal increase in its revenue from3402.10 crores in 2013-14 to 3520.21
crores in 2014-15. The increase in revenue numbers
must be seen in the context of softening crude oil prices which resulted in
lower realizations for
most of SRF products.
