On the reaction day the stock moved 0.7 pts less than Nifty Microcap 250 and 1.8 pts less than its Trading & Distributors 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.
Chandrima Mercantiles Ltd, a small trading company dealing in agriculture products, reported FY25 revenue from operations of Rs 2,919.30 lacs, up about 51% from Rs 1,938.95 lacs in FY24. Net profit for the full year rose to Rs 72.94 lacs from Rs 26.30 lacs, while EPS fell to Rs 0.57 from Rs 1.19 due to a Rs 20 crore preferential issue of equity shares during the year. However, Q4 FY25 standalone swung to a loss of Rs 98.87 lacs versus a profit of Rs 236.09 lacs in Q4 FY24, and operating cash flow turned sharply negative at Rs (3,826.28) lacs, driven by a large build-up in inventory and a steep fall in trade payables. The statutory auditor issued an unmodified (clean) opinion, and reserves strengthened to Rs 7,921.10 lacs with negligible debt.
Full-year numbers look healthy on the surface with strong revenue and profit growth, but the negative operating cash flow and a loss-making Q4 suggest working capital strain and weak cash quality of earnings; shareholders should watch inventory levels and trade payables closely, while the clean audit opinion and zero-debt balance sheet provide some comfort.
