Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd (NSE: CROMPTON) announced its financial results for the second quarter of FY2025, reporting a sharp decline in profitability even as revenue remained largely stable on a year-on-year basis.

The company’s net profit dropped 43% year-on-year to ₹71.2 crore, compared to ₹125 crore in the same quarter last year. The decline was mainly driven by weaker operating performance and lower margins.

Revenue from operations stood at ₹1,916 crore, a marginal rise of 1% from ₹1,896 crore reported in Q2 FY2024, indicating steady sales across its product segments.

However, operating performance took a hit. EBITDA fell 22% year-on-year to ₹158 crore, down from ₹203 crore in the previous year. Consequently, the EBITDA margin slipped sharply to 8.27% from 10.74% a year ago.
