The full read
Anjani Portland Cement ended the year with a consolidated net loss of ₹26.31 crore, a marked improvement from the ₹81.22 crore loss reported in the prior year. Revenue grew by 5.8% to ₹455.21 crore. The standalone results were distorted by a one-time ₹79.96 crore loss from the sale of Bhavya Cements, which pushed the standalone yearly loss to ₹103.96 crore. Despite this, the company reached a turning point in the fourth quarter, posting a consolidated net profit of ₹1.65 crore. For a company with a market capitalization of just ₹360 crore, this shift to quarterly profitability is the most important takeaway from the filing. The re-appointment of M. Bhaskara Rao & Co. as internal auditors remains a routine governance matter. The core story is the narrowing of losses and the return to positive territory in the final quarter.
