Profit before tax slipped to ₹441.31 lakhs from ₹691.12 lakhs, and net profit declined to ₹342.99 lakhs (₹525.01 lakhs earlier), pushing EPS down to ₹3.16 from ₹4.83.

Likely market impact

Shareholders should note a clear slowdown in both top line and bottom line compared with the year-ago period, with margins under pressure. The positive flip in operating cash flow and full deployment of IPO funds for plant and working capital are encouraging signs, but near-term earnings momentum looks soft.
