MUMBAI – Aditya Birla Capital's net profit for the Oct-Dec quarter plummeted 97% on quarter to INR 135.10 million from INR 4.03 billion in Jul-Sept. The sharp decline was attributed to a slowdown in gains from sale of investments and no dividend income.
On a year-on-year basis, the company's net profit after tax fell 47.20% as the profit for the year-ago period was INR 256 million. The company reported a significant drop in revenue from gains on sale of investments in Oct-Dec at INR 109 million, against INR 2.52 billion in the Jul-Sept quarter.
The fall in the company's gains on investments and no dividend for the quarter resulted in a 93% drop in total revenue from operations at INR 328 million, compared to INR 5.22 billion in Jul-Sept. It further dragged down the total income to INR 330 million from INR 5.24 billion in the previous quarter. In the same period last year, the company had reported total income of INR 486 million.
The company's consolidated profit for Oct-Dec was at INR 7.08 billion compared to INR 7.36 billion a year ago and INR 10.00 billion in Jul-Sept.
The company's total expenses declined 14% year-on-year and 50% quarter-on-quarter to INR 128.00 million. Tax expenses fell to INR 68.00 million from INR 959.00 million the previous quarter.
Aditya Birla Capital's overall lending portfolio grew 27% year-on-year and 6% sequentially to INR 1.46 trillion as of Dec. 31. This includes advances by subsidiaries Aditya Birla Finance and Aditya Birla Housing Finance.
The company's total assets under management, including subsidiaries – Aditya Birla Sun Life AMC, Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance, Aditya Birla Health Insurance -, rose 23% to INR 5.03 trillion as of Dec. 31. The gross premium for life insurance and health insurance subsidiaries grew 27% year-on-year to INR 169.42 billion for Apr-Dec.
For the first nine months of the financial year, Aditya Birla Capital's standalone total profit stood at INR 4.54 billion, up almost fourfold from INR 1.17 billion in the same period last year.
