Mumbai: AWL Agri’s consolidated Q3 revenue rose to Rupees 18,603 crore from Rupees 17,605 crore in Q2 and Rupees 16,839 crore in Q3 FY25. Net profit climbed to Rupees 269 crore versus Rupees 245 crore in Q2 and Rupees 411
crore a year earlier. Revenue growth was led by the Edible Oils and Industry Essentials segments, offsetting a decline in YoY profitability due to elevated input costs and an exceptional expense of Rupees 25.83 crore tied to labour code transitions.
Sequential Growth Builds Despite Exceptional Charges
The company posted a Rupees 56 crore increase in QoQ profit despite higher material costs and a notable one-time charge. Expenses rose to Rupees 18,346 crore in Q3 from Rupees 17,213 crore in Q2, driven by raw material and inventory fluctuations. EPS improved to Rupees 2.08 in Q3 from Rupees 1.89 in Q2. The exceptional cost related to labour compliance was Rupees 25.83 crore, disclosed under “Exceptional Items,” impacting bottom line comparability.
