Crude impact marginal on PET spreadsCrude impact marginal on PET spreads

Crude price increase absorbed in petrochemical chain

Petrochemical prices increased

Petrochemical spreads were higher on tight supply, low investments

Post-SE Asian crisis in 1997-98

Additional supply in year 2005-6 result in decline in spreads

PET prices move in line with raw material prices

Able to pass rising costs in past 2 years

Historically, PET spreads widen on lower raw material costs

Reversing petrochemical cycle will be beneficial (refer slide 12)
