The sharp economic headwinds, particularly steep rise in input costs due to devaluation of Rupee and rising interest rate are some of the factors responsible for the company’s losses.

Despite these, the company witnessed a growth of 14% YoY in topline earnings backed by volumetric growth.

The other factors which dragged company’s net income into negative territory include; distribution cost which rose by 8% YoY, 63% YoY surged in finance cost on account of higher interest rate and a considerable decline in its other income by 65% YoY.

 Moreover, the company enjoyed a tax rebate of Rs 51,728, which helped in containing the company’s losses.
