Cube Highways Trust InvIT reported revenue of ₹846 cr for January to March 2025, +6.0% on the year and −0.5% on the quarter. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹3,308 cr, +8.1% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹540 cr, a margin of 63.8%, −1,950 bps on the year and −758 bps on the quarter. Over the last 8 quarters the margin has ranged from −34.7% to 83.3%, averaging 55.3%. Operating costs grew +130.1%, faster than revenue at +6.0%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
The company swung to a net loss of ₹62.0 cr from a profit of ₹122 cr a year earlier, with earnings per share of −₹0.46. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax fell 175.4%, so 25 points of the headline growth came from outside the core business.
