JSW Holdings Q4 Results: Profit Drops 71% YoY To Rs 9.72 Crore Despite Revenue Growth
JSW Holdings Limited, the investment arm of the diversified JSW Group, reported a significant decline in its consolidated net profit for the fourth quarter (Q4) of FY25. The company posted a profit of Rs 9.72 crore, marking a steep 71 per cent year-on-year (YoY) drop compared to Rs 33.29 crore in the same period of the previous fiscal.
This sharp decline in earnings came despite a modest increase in the company’s revenue from operations. For Q4 FY25, JSW Holdings reported revenue of Rs 29.46 crore, up 9.19 per cent from Rs 26.98 crore in Q4 FY24. The company primarily generates income through dividends, interest from loans, and fees charged for share pledging.
JSW Holdings Revenue
However, the gains in revenue were offset by a rise in total expenses, which grew 13.19 per cent to Rs 3.86 crore in Q4 FY25, compared to Rs 3.41 crore a year earlier. A significant contributor to this increase was employee benefits expense, which surged nearly 39 per cent to Rs 3.03 crore from Rs 2.18 crore in the same quarter last year.
Despite the decline in quarterly profit, market sentiment appeared unaffected. JSW Holdings' shares closed at Rs 23,745 on the National Stock Exchange (NSE), up Rs 255 or 1.09 per cent, following the earnings announcement.
