Net profit after tax decreased to ' 925.17 lakhs from ' 2,086.08 lakhs of the previous year, representing a decline of 55.65% primarily due to sharp inflation in palm oil prices and packaging material prices and loss incurred due to fire at the Kolkata unit. The effects of inflation in inputs were largely offset by the various cost optimisation initiatives, gradual implementation of the direct distribution model, grammage rationalisation and higher price realisation. The consolidated revenue from operations of the Company increased to ' 1,39,661.93 lakhs compared to ' 1,17,108.88 lakhs in the previous year, registering a growth of 19.26%.
