Chandrima Mercantiles reported audited results for FY25, with annual revenue from operations rising to Rs. 2,919.38 lakhs from Rs. 1,943.66 lakhs in FY24 (up about 50%). Net profit for the full year improved to Rs. 72.94 lakhs from Rs. 26.30 lakhs last year. However, the March quarter (Q4 FY25) was weak — revenue fell to Rs. 876.48 lakhs from Rs. 1,054.30 lakhs a year ago and the company slipped into a net loss of Rs. 98.87 lakhs compared to a profit of Rs. 236.09 lakhs in Q4 FY24. The company also announced a stock split in the ratio of 1:10 (face value from Rs. 10 to Re. 1), subject to shareholder approval, to improve liquidity. Operating cash flow turned sharply negative at Rs. (3,826.28) lakhs versus a positive Rs. 416.53 lakhs last year, largely funded by a Rs. 3,150 lakh preferential issue during the year. The statutory auditor (VSSB & Associates) gave an unmodified (clean) opinion.
For shareholders: The stock split may make shares more affordable and improve trading liquidity, but the negative operating cash flow and Q4 loss raise concerns about core business cash generation despite headline profit growth. Watch inventory and receivables buildup closely in coming quarters.
