Consolidated Profit After Tax for the quarter was ₹104 crore against ₹112 crore in Q4 FY25.

During the quarter, the company recognised an exceptional item amounting to ₹25.8 crore on a consolidated basis related to the implementation impact of the new labour codes notified by the Government of India.
