Jose Jacob, Chairman & Managing Director of Antony Waste Handling Cell, said: "In the quarter gone by, the Company delivered a strong performance, with operating revenue increasing by 13% YoY, reaching to Rs 224 crore. This growth was driven by enhanced operational efficiency, higher tipping fees, and steady contributions from fixed shifts, trips, and household fees. Favourable seasonal trends and the ramp-up of our CIDCO bio-mining site further strengthened performance. This reinforces our ongoing commitment to optimising throughput and enhancing material recovery rates, delivering both environmental and commercial value. Our Waste-to-Energy plant continued to operate at a healthy plant load factor of approximately 84%, not only meeting the expectations but setting the new benchmarks for the industry and showcasing our ability to reliably convert waste into clean energy. Resource recovery was a standout in this quarter, as we achieved our highest-ever sales in this segment. Compost sales reached around 6,600 tonnes, a 10% increase year-on-year, while refuse-derived fuel sales rose by a remarkable 62% to approximately 55,500 tonnes. These results highlight and reconfirm our progress that we are making towards promoting circularity, reducing landfill dependency, and contributing towards a greener and cleaner environment. One of the most significant strategic developments of the quarter was the commercial launch of our Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) initiative within the Waste-to-Energy division. With the PCMC WtE project now officially registered to qualify for EPR credits, we have already monetised 20% of the first-year allocation of over 94,400 metric tonnes. This initiative not only adds a new and sustainable revenue stream but also places us at the forefront of India’s transition towards a circular economy. It is a milestone that aligns perfectly with our vision of integrating environmental responsibility with profitable growth. This strong start to FY26 reaffirms the strength of our business model and the dedication of our teams. With a solid foundation in place, we are confident in our ability to sustain this momentum, capture new opportunities in the evolving waste management sector, and deliver long-term value to our stakeholders in the quarters ahead".
