CROMPTON · Consumer Durables
Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd. reported revenue of ₹1,632 cr for July to September 2025, −0.8% on the year and −10.3% on the quarter. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹6,874 cr, +0.2% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹130 cr, a margin of 8.0%, −298 bps on the year and −182 bps on the quarter. It is the narrowest margin of the last 8 quarters (range 8.0% to 13.2%). Operating costs grew +2.5%, faster than revenue at −0.8%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹70.0 cr, −43.1% on the year and −44.0% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹1.09. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew faster, at −34.2%; other income, one-offs or tax held the headline back. The tax rate of 25% is in line with its recent average. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹478 cr, −11.0% on the four before.
Retail growth comes from new stores and from sales at existing stores; the statements show the total, the filing shows how much each contributed. The quarterly statements do not carry same-store sales, stores added and revenue per square foot; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹7.42 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹218.90 trades at 29.5 times trailing earnings.
