NEW DELHI – Container Corp. of India Ltd. on Monday posted a double-digit year-on-year fall in its net profit for the March quarter, as the company's total expenses declined at a slower pace than revenue. The company's net profit and revenue fell short of analysts' estimates. The state-owned company's bottom line fell year-on-year for a second consecutive quarter in Jan-Mar, while the revenue from operations declined after three quarters of growth.

 

The company's net profit for the March quarter fell nearly 15% on year to INR 2.58 billion. Sequentially, the net profit declined by almost 22%. Analysts had pegged the company's bottom line for the quarter at INR 3.17 billion.

 

The company's revenue from operations declined 1.1% on year and 2% sequentially to INR 22.57 billion in Jan-Mar. Analysts had expected the company to report revenue of INR 23.27 billion during the quarter.

 

Total expenses of the Navratna company declined 0.7% on year to INR 20.06 billion for the reporting quarter. Rail freight expenses, which account for the largest share in the company's expenditure pie, fell 0.9% on year to INR 12.86 billion in Jan-Mar, while other operating expenses fell almost 6% on year to INR 2.98 billion. Depreciation and amortisation expenses of the state-run entity fell by over 4% on year to INR 1.49 billion for the three months. Expenses tied to employee benefits stood at INR 1.33 billion for the quarter under review, down 0.4% year-on-year.

 

Revenue from the company's export-import segment rose slightly to INR 14.97 billion in the reporting quarter from INR 14.91 billion a year ago. This gain was eclipsed by a decline in the smaller domestic segment, with the contribution falling to INR 7.60 billion in Jan-Mar from INR 7.91 billion in the same period last year.

 

For the full year 2025-26 (Jan-Mar), the logistics company posted a net profit of INR 12.22 billion, down nearly 4% on year. Its revenue for the year rose over 2% on year to INR 90.59 billion.
