Net profit for the period was reported at a loss of ₹185.9 crore, contrasting with a profit of ₹386.01 crore in the prior year.

The Earnings Per Share (EPS) stood at (₹0.27), reflecting the current challenges the company is facing.

Operational costs escalated to ₹746.43 crore, up from ₹90.36 crore year-over-year, marking a substantial increase.

The strategic outlook suggests a focus on stabilizing operational efficiency and navigating the fluctuations in the market. Given the current performance and cost structures, an investor might consider a hold strategy, monitoring how the company adapts to cost control and revenue growth in the coming periods.
