Emami Q1 cons net up 18% to Rs 41.50 crore

FMCG company Emami’s first quarter consolidated net profit rose 18% year-on-year to Rs 41.50 crore as a higher other income and lower tax expense offset a surge in cost of raw materials.Emami’s consolidated income from operations in April-June was up 24% year-on-year to Rs 299.91 crore helped by strong sales growth in some of its brands like Navratna oil, Zandu Balm and Fair & Handsome cream.

During the three-month period, the company’s other income rose to Rs 3.11 crore from Rs 89 lakh and tax expense was lower at Rs 1.33 crore, compared with Rs 3.75 crore a year ago.

However, Emami’s profit from operations before other income, interest and exceptional items fell 1.2% in the first quarter to Rs 36.40 crore as input costs soared 60% from a year ago to Rs 91.68 crore.

Emami shares Friday closed down 3.9% at Rs 480 on NSE.
