According to an official spokesman, the company has taken various steps to increase its sales realisation and reduction in cost. It has enforced stringent cost cutting measures to bring down the cost in areas like power, raw materials, administrative costs and spares.

As a result of various steps taken by the company, PACL is likely to post a cash profit of Rs 6 lakh for the month of April alone against an average cash loss of Rs 110 lakh per month during the last six months. The caustic soda industry in general has also started looking up because of better offtake and international prices are also firm at the moment. The caustic chlor industry has also asked the Government to levy an anti-dumping duty on import of caustic soda which is likely to give a further boost to this industry. All these indications point towards a better future for PACL.
