"Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd’s (EKC) Q2FY09 results were in line with expectations as it reported a 73% YoY growth in net sales to Rs 2.2 billion on back of volume growth and full quarter contribution from CP Industries. OPM expanded by 72bps to 31.8% while net profits rose by 52% to Rs 432 million."
