Revenue from operations rose 13.8% year-on-year to ₹1,183.5 crore, driven by growth in transportation and trading segments. However, net profit from continuing operations declined 16.5% to ₹24.1 crore as higher operational and administrative expenses compressed margins.

Financial Performance

The company reported total income of ₹1,217.7 crore against total expenses of ₹1,187.0 crore. Other income fell to ₹34.2 crore from ₹43.7 crore in the previous year. Profit before tax stood at ₹30.7 crore, down from ₹35.8 crore.

Segment Highlights

Transportation revenue surged 37.0% to ₹292.2 crore, while automotive parts trading grew 9.5% to ₹508.6 crore. Wind energy revenue increased 8.2% to ₹19.1 crore. Petrol pump operations saw a 6.1% rise in revenue to ₹336.3 crore.

What the Numbers Show

Despite robust top-line growth, the company’s profitability was weighed down by rising costs. Total expenses grew at a faster rate (13.3%) than revenue (13.8%), leading to a contraction in net profit. This divergence suggests margin pressure in key operating segments, particularly given the significant increase in freight and diesel expenses within operational costs.

Governance and Litigation

Directors Ram Prasad Agarwal and Saurabh Jhunjhunwala are seeking re-appointment by rotation. The statutory auditors issued a qualified opinion citing non-provision of interest on non-performing assets and unassessed impairment on assets under legal dispute. The company faces ongoing litigation regarding property possession by lenders and corporate guarantees extended to Fairdeal Supplies Limited, which is under corporate insolvency resolution.
