Price around the results
Net profit benefited from a low tax charge
Profit before tax was Rs 15.72 cr and net profit was Rs 14.42 cr. The Rs 1.3 cr tax charge reflected an 8.29% tax rate, supporting the conversion from pre-tax profit to net profit. Other income of Rs 1.92 cr also contributed to reported earnings, so profit was not generated entirely by operations.
Operating margin was in line with reported Industrials peers
Operating profit was Rs 23.9 cr on revenue of Rs 138.09 cr, resulting in a 17.3% operating margin. That matched the 17.3% median margin among 7 Industrials peers that had reported the quarter. Sejal Glass ranked fourth from the bottom in that peer set.
