What the Numbers Show
While absolute EBITDA improved to ₹227.97 million from ₹213.53 million year-on-year, the EBITDA margin contraction from 6.61% to 6.32% indicates that revenue growth has outpaced operating profit expansion, pointing to rising input or operational costs. The divergence between consolidated and standalone profitability further highlights the impact of subsidiary performance, with standalone net profit surging 21.2% year-on-year compared to consolidated net profit growth of 6.30%. The acquisition of Citelum India Private Limited on June 29, 2026, had no financial impact on the quarter due to the lack of business transactions post-acquisition.
