Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Standalone revenue for the September 2025 quarter fell 46% year on year to Rs 91.42 crore, while net profit rose to Rs 30.05 crore from Rs 13.56 crore. Half-year revenue fell 45% to Rs 189.83 crore, but net profit jumped to Rs 251.32 crore as other income reached Rs 299.67 crore. Group half-year sales rose 4%; net profit was Rs 310.51 crore, but operating cash outflow was Rs 279.92 crore. The auditor's limited review raised no material concern.
Profit looks less sustainable because other income drove earnings while sales fell and cash was used. The rights issue may dilute existing holders.
