MUMBAI – A rise in other expenses and employee benefits expenses pulled down the profit of Religare Enterprises Ltd. for the quarter ended March. The company posted a consolidated net profit of INR 822.09 million for the quarter, against a net profit of INR 984.84 million a year ago.

 

The fall in net profit was despite a significant increase in revenue. Revenue from operations for the quarter rose almost 21% from a year ago to INR 24.67 billion and rose 20% sequentially.

 

For the March quarter, the company's other expenses rose to INR 14.42 billion, up over 24% on year. Meanwhile, its employee benefits expenses rose to INR 3.42 billion from INR 2.56 billion a year ago. The total expenses for the reporting quarter rose 28.36% on year to INR 23.46 billion; sequentially, they rose 8.07%. 

 

A rise in net loss on fair value changes also weighed on the company's bottomline. Net loss on fair value changes skyrocketed to INR 716.5 million from just INR 6.3 million a year ago. 

 

The bottom line was supported by a sharp increase in income from insurance premiums, which rose 19% to INR 21.32 billion in the March quarter. A rise in intererst income, which rose 40% to INR 2.61 billion, also supported the net profit. 

 

For the year ended March, the company's consolidated net profit was INR 859.58 million, down from INR 1.25 billion a year ago. Revenue from operations for the period rose to INR 84.59 billion from INR 73.78 billion a year ago.

 

On Tuesday, shares of Religare Enterprises closed almost 3% lower at INR 222.30 on the National Stock Exchange.  End
