Just Dial Q4 Results: Just Dial Ltd reported a mixed financial performance for the fourth quarter, with a sharp decline in profitability even as revenue and operating metrics showed modest growth.
The company posted a 36.5% year-on-year (YoY) fall in net profit, which stood at Rs 100 crore, compared to Rs 158 crore in the same quarter last year. The decline in bottom-line performance comes despite steady improvements in topline growth.
On the revenue front, Just Dial recorded a 6.2% YoY increase, with total revenue reaching Rs 307 crore, up from Rs 289 crore in the corresponding period last year. The growth indicates continued traction in its core local search and digital services business.
Operationally, the company saw a marginal uptick in earnings. EBITDA rose 3.1% YoY to Rs 88.8 crore, compared to Rs 86.1 crore in Q4 of the previous fiscal. However, profitability margins came under slight pressure.
The EBITDA margin stood at 28.9%, slipping from 29.7% a year ago, reflecting increased costs or investments impacting overall efficiency.
