Business Operations
Graphite India’s product range extends from electrodes to a wide range of products covering impervious graphite equipment, graphite speciality products, high-speed steel, glass-reinforced plastic pipes, calcined petroleum coke and hydel power generation.
The company’s graphite and carbon segment continued to be the primary source of revenue and profit, accounting for about 92% of the total revenue in FY23.
