STAND ALONE RESULTS

Sales for the quarter were up by 17% at Rs. 875 Cr. as against Rs.749 Cr. for the same period last year.

The profit before depreciation, interest and tax for the quarter was at Rs. 80 Cr. against Rs. 87 Cr. last year, a decline of 7%.

The profit before tax and exceptional items for the quarter was Rs. 44 Cr. as compared to Rs. 54 Cr. for the corresponding period in the previous year.

Mr. L. Ramkumar, Managing Director said, “The bicycles division has registered a growth in volume and in revenue over corresponding period last year. However growth in the auto sector dropped for the second consecutive quarter particularly in the passenger car segment which registered a negative growth of 6%. Due to delay in release of orders by Indian Railways for wagons, the Company’s revenue from this segment was only 24% of the same quarter last year. These impacted the turnover of engineering and metal formed product segments. The margins were under pressure across all segments due to increased material cost, inflation in fuel costs and rupee depreciation.”
