Vedanta Q4 Result: Profit slides 27% due to falling metal prices, subdued oil & gas segment

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

 Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

Summary

The Anil Agarwal-led company’s net profit for the January-March quarter stood at ₹2,273 crore against ₹3,132 crore in the year-ago period. Shares of Vedanta Ltd ended 1.16% lower at ₹379 apiece on Thursday, April 25.

Mining major Vedanta Ltd posted a 27% drop in net profit for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year 2023-24 amid declining prices of metals like zinc, copper, and aluminium, and a subdued performance in the oil and gas segment.

The Anil Agarwal-led company’s net profit for the January-March quarter stood at 2,273 crore against 3,132 crore in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year. This is also a drop from the 2,868-crore profit reported in the third quarter.

Revenue from operations fell 6.4% to 35,509 crore during the quarter under review, down from ₹37,930 crore in the year-ago period.

The global economic slowdown, exacerbated by geopolitical tensions and supply chain disruptions, has contributed to the fall in metal prices which has affected Vedanta’s profitability. Metals such as zinc, copper, and aluminium are significant revenue drivers for the company. Challenges in the oil and gas segment have also added to the company’s financial woes.

The earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) slipped 7.3% to ₹8,768 crore against ₹9,459 crore reported in the corresponding period in the previous year. The EBITDA margin stood at 24.7%  against 24.9% in the preceding fiscal.

Shares of Vedanta ended 1.16% lower at ₹379 apiece on Thursday, April 25.

Tech Mahindra Q4 Results: CEO Mohit Joshi hopeful of growth returning by second half of FY25

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

 Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

Summary

Tech Mahindra’s shares had declined 5% in the one month ahead of earnings. For 2024, the stock is down 8.2%.

Tech Mahindra’s new CEO Mohit Joshi said in a post earnings address that financial year 2025 will be a better year compared to financial year 2024.

For the March quarter, Tech Mahindra reported a net profit of ₹661 crore, which was lower than the CNBC-TV18 poll of ₹749 crore. On a sequential basis, net profit increased by 29%.

Revenue in US Dollar terms stood at $1,548 million, which was in-line with expectations of $1,554.5 million. In rupee terms, revenue stood at ₹12,871.3 crore, largely in-line with the ₹12,923 crore estimate. When compared to the December quarter, Tech Mahindra’s revenue declined by 1.8%.

In constant currency terms, revenue dropped by 0.8% quarter-on-quarter. Constant currency revenue for Tech Mahindra has declined in three out of the last four quarters.

CEO Joshi told CNBC-TV18 that the March quarter marked the low point for Tech Mahindra’s growth trajectory and that the company will be fully back on the growth path by the second half of financial year 2025.

Joshi also said that the volatility in discretionary spends remains quite high with limited visibility. That volatility is compounded given the company’s very high exposure to the telecom vertical.

For the quarter, the Communications, Media and Entertainment (CME) business contributed to 36% of the overall topline and saw a decline of 2.8% on a sequential basis. Joshi also asserted that the telecom business remains the heart of Tech Mahindra and that there is no plan to marginalise that business.

EBIT or Earnings Before Interest and Tax fell 9.3% from the previous quarter to ₹637.7 crore, while a CNBC-TV18 poll had projected the figure to be ₹960 crore. EBIT margin stood at 7.4%.

Tech Mahindra won deals worth $500 million during the quarter. The company plans to grow selectively in certain markets with focus on US and Europe. Together, both US and Europe contributed to three-quarters of the company’s topline during the quarter.

Shares of Tech Mahindra ended 0.4% higher on Thursday at ₹1,190.75.

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

 Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

Summary

Macrotech Developers expects 20% growth in pre-sales to about ₹17,500 crore during the financial year (FY25).

Abhishek Lodha, MD and CEO of realty firm Macrotech Developers expects property prices to increase by around 5-6% in the current financial year (FY25).

The total volume growth in FY25 is expected to be 14%.

Lodha believes volume growth from existing locations will be around 4-5% and the balance 10% will come from new locations.

In the March quarter, the company’s consolidated net profit dropped by 11% to 666 crore. However, for the entire year (FY24(, the company saw a significant increase, with its profit soaring threefold to 1,549 crore.

The company closed FY24 in line with its projection of a 20% growth, at pre-sales of 14,500 crore.

“For fiscal 2025, our guidance is approximately 20% growth in pre-sales bringing us to about 17,500 crore of pre-sales and an embedded EBITDA margin of about 31%,” he said.

Lodha said the company wants to continue to have more presence in the three cities it currently operates in–Mumbai, Pune and Bengaluru.

The two launches in Bengaluru last year were very successful, he said.

The current market capitalisation of the company is 1,19,469 crore.
