On the reaction day the stock moved 4.5 pts less than its Specialty Chemicals 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.
Revenue rose 33.2% year on year to Rs 426.89 crore in the September quarter and 26.4% to Rs 829.91 crore for the half-year. Standalone profit after tax rose 38.1% to Rs 23.84 crore and 51.2% to Rs 51.16 crore. Consolidated profit was Rs 24.05 crore and Rs 51.81 crore. Half-year operating cash flow turned negative at Rs 52.38 crore standalone and Rs 53.08 crore consolidated, as inventory and receivables rose. The limited review found no material issue.
Strong revenue and profit growth should support sentiment, but negative operating cash flow from higher stock and customer dues is a concern.
