On the reaction day the stock moved 0.7 pts more than Nifty Smallcap 250 and 0.5 pts more than its Hospital peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Consolidated September-quarter revenue was INR 1,197.21 crore, up 10.2% year on year, and profit after tax was INR 121.31 crore, up 14.7%. First-half operating cash flow was INR 319.20 crore and the review was unmodified. First-half exceptional merger and acquisition costs were INR 4.75 crore. Non-executive director Anoop Moopen resigned, and an office space arrangement in Hyderabad was agreed with a wholly owned subsidiary.
Profit growth and strong cash flow are supportive, but exceptional costs and the director's departure may weigh on sentiment.
