Shares of Deepak Builders & Engineers India Ltd plunged 9.61% to ₹141.26 in Monday’s trade after the company posted a weak Q4FY25 performance. The net profit fell sharply to ₹11.2 crore in Q4FY25 compared to ₹33.8 crore in the same quarter last year, marking a 67% year-on-year decline.
Revenue from operations, however, rose significantly by 18.8% to ₹224.3 crore during the March quarter, up from ₹189 crore a year ago. The total expenses surged to ₹209.4 crore, largely led by a spike in material costs and employee expenses, thereby weighing down profitability.
EBITDA for the quarter stood at ₹17.8 crore, declining from ₹48 crore in Q4FY24. EBITDA margin also compressed to 7.9% from 25.4% YoY, reflecting cost pressure and operational inefficiencies.
The company reported a full-year revenue of ₹586.7 crore for FY25, up from ₹516.7 crore in FY24. However, profit after tax declined marginally to ₹56.7 crore versus ₹60.4 crore last year.
The stock has declined nearly 10% today as investors reacted negatively to the drop in quarterly profitability and margin pressures.
