Clean Science & Technology has reported a weak financial performance for the third quarter, with declines across profit, revenue, and operating margins on a year-on-year basis. The results highlight pressure on demand and profitability amid a challenging operating environment.
Clean Science & Technology posted a net profit of ₹45.8 cr in Q3, marking a sharp decline of 30% compared with ₹65.6 cr recorded in the same quarter last year. The drop in profitability reflects lower operating leverage and a contraction in margins during the quarter.
Revenue for the quarter stood at ₹220 cr, down 8.7% from ₹241 cr in the corresponding period last year. The fall in topline indicates subdued volumes and pricing pressures across key product segments, which impacted overall business momentum during the quarter.
At the operating level, EBITDA declined 26.5% year-on-year to ₹72.3 cr from ₹98.4 cr. As a result, the EBITDA margin narrowed significantly to 32.9%, compared with a strong 40.9% margin reported in Q3 of the previous financial year.
