what happened
Fertilisers and Chemicals Travancore (FACT) saw its stock rise by up to 3% on Friday, after the firm disclosed that its September-quarter net profit had grown 88% from a year earlier, TradingView reported. Part of that advance was given back as traders booked gains at elevated levels. Around 2 pm the shares changed hands at Rs 811.45, 1.19% higher.
Net profit reached Rs 39.28 crore, versus Rs 20.9 crore a year earlier, an increase of 87.9%. Sales, however, slid 10.2% annually, landing at Rs 1,463.7 crore against Rs 1,629.3 crore before. Operating profit before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation jumped from Rs 39.5 crore to Rs 98.4 crore, lifting the EBITDA margin to 6.7% from 2.4%.
why it matters
Profit growth came alongside lower revenue, so the improvement reflects margin recovery rather than bigger sales. For investors tracking Indian fertiliser and chemical names, the quarter signals better operating efficiency, though the stock's reaction was muted and its gains partly faded.
