"Overall demand for soda ash in India was stable, while some segments like container glass in Americas and Europe experienced muted demand.
"Unprecedented heavy rains in July and August impacted Mithapur operations leading to lower production as compared to the previous quarter, thus impacting margins," Tata Chemicals Managing Director and CEO R Mukundan said.
However, he said, the company's overall performance was better as compared to previous quarter due to higher sales volume, coupled with higher realisation of soda ash.
