Key takeaways
- Consolidated operating profit was Rs 0.96 cr on revenue of Rs 28.24 cr, a 3.39% operating margin.
- Interest of Rs 0.58 cr and depreciation of Rs 0.87 cr absorbed most of operating profit, leaving profit before tax at Rs 0.18 cr.
- Other income of Rs 0.68 cr exceeded profit before tax, while a 53.66% tax rate reduced net profit to Rs 0.08 cr.
Q1 operating profit stayed thin
Consolidated revenue of Rs 28.24 cr produced operating profit of only Rs 0.96 cr, equivalent to a 3.39% operating margin. That leaves limited room for financing and non-cash charges to be absorbed below the operating line.
Below the operating line shaped the result
Interest of Rs 0.58 cr and depreciation of Rs 0.87 cr together exceeded operating profit, leaving profit before tax at Rs 0.18 cr. Other income of Rs 0.68 cr was larger than pre-tax profit, making reported earnings dependent on a non-operating contribution. The 53.66% tax rate further reduced net profit to Rs 0.08 cr and EPS to Rs 0.03.
