Message from the Chairman

Dear Shareholders,

For many years, we have been talking about increasing volatility and unpredictability. The events of the last 24 months have heralded a new era of uncertainty where both the amplitude and frequency of shifts have vastly exceeded anything we have seen in recent decades.

The unprecedented pandemic was followed by supply chain whiplash, and further disruption was brought on by the Russia-Ukraine war. We are now staring at the spectre of a high-interest rate and high-inflation regime globally.

Message from the Managing Director

Dear Shareholders,

In a globalised marketplace, the industry is increasingly prone to extreme disruptions.In recent times, we have already witnessed the volatility associated with global pandemics, climate events and war. At Hindalco, and the Aditya Birla Group at large, the organisational ethos is built on resilience and willingness to take on all challenges. There is another credo equally at play – our ability to welcome change. To anticipate the rising of a new age, replete with new ideas. To embrace new paradigms and the opportunities that arise. That is the essence of sustain-ability at Hindalco.
