Birla Corporation's December Quarter Net Profit Surges 71%, Despite Challenging Market Conditions

Birla Corporation Limited reported a consolidated net profit of Rs 53 crore in the December quarter, up 71% over the same period last year, while consolidated EBITDA grew 18% to Rs 312 crore. The company registered volume growth in cement sales in West Bengal and Maharashtra. Despite subdued demand in October and November, demand recovered strongly in December, led by the B2B segment, resulting in an estimated overall year-on-year (yoy) growth of 7-8% for the quarter. The company made a provision of Rs 34 crore on account of the estimated impact of labour codes introduced by the Union Government in November 2025. The Jute Division turned in a cash loss of Rs 2.14 crore for the December quarter due to shortage of raw jute and a sharp rise in the price of raw jute.
