MUMBAI – Aditya Birla Capital Ltd.'s net profit saw double-digit on-year growth in the December quarter as growth in revenue outpaced the rise in total expenses. The revenue growth is primarily attributed to earnings from housing finance and life insurance segments.

 

The company's December quarter bottom line at INR 9.45 billion was up over 33% on year and nearly 11% on quarter, despite the company making provisions for the cost arising due to new labour laws which came into force last November. The company has incurred an incremental impact of INR 675.9 million for the quarter due to the implementation of the labour codes.

 

The lender's total revenue from operations was INR 119.52 billion, up over 27% on year and nearly 13% on a sequential basis. The revenue from the housing finance segment rose over 56% to INR 10.71 billion and life insurance segment rose nearly 34% to INR 64.12 billion for the December quarter.
