The read

P&L walk

Consolidated revenue of ₹28,508 lakh grew 39.4% YoY, direct-cost intensity fell to 88.5% from 91.4%, and PAT rose 52.6% to ₹693 lakh; however, the operating margin was 4.3%, down 41bps YoY as employee and other expenses also increased.

Segments

Trading was the main growth engine, with revenue up 44.5% YoY to ₹16,070 lakh and result up 42.5% to ₹755 lakh, while manufacturing revenue grew 34.2% to ₹12,526 lakh but its result declined 7.0% QoQ to ₹602 lakh; subsidiaries widened the consolidated PAT to ₹693 lakh versus standalone PAT of ₹548 lakh.

Key positives

• Consolidated revenue reached ₹28,508 lakh, up 39.4% YoY, led by trading revenue growth of 44.5% to ₹16,070 lakh.

• Consolidated operating margin was approximately 4.3%, down 41bps YoY despite gross-margin expansion, as employee and other expenses rose 20.6% YoY to ₹2,030 lakh.
• Manufacturing segment result declined 7.0% QoQ to ₹602 lakh even though quarterly revenue was broadly flat.
