For Q3, Century Ply posted a net profit of ₹64 crore, marking a 9.4% increase compared with ₹58.4 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. The steady rise in profit came despite a challenging operating environment, indicating effective cost management and better product mix during the quarter.
Revenue performance remained robust, with total income rising 18.4% year-on-year to ₹1,350 crore from ₹1,140 crore. The growth was supported by healthy volumes across plywood, laminates and MDF segments, along with sustained demand from the housing and real estate markets.
Operating performance showed a sharper improvement. EBITDA surged 32% year-on-year to ₹170.5 crore, compared with ₹129.2 crore in Q3 of the previous financial year. The strong expansion in EBITDA highlights better operating leverage, controlled input costs and improved efficiencies across manufacturing operations.
