P&L walk
Consolidated revenue increased to ₹7572.25 lakh, +14.9% YoY and +56.7% QoQ, while gross margin expanded to 64.7% YoY despite raw-material intensity rising to 36.9%; PAT growth to ₹2462.74 lakh, +64.1%, was amplified by the Investments segment result of ₹964.51 lakh, +228.8%.
Segments
Both segments lifted the group, but Investments was the disproportionate driver: revenue rose to ₹972.33 lakh from ₹297.38 lakh and result to ₹964.51 lakh from ₹293.26 lakh, versus Textile Business revenue growth of 15.2% and result growth of 34.2%.
