what happened

Grasim Industries reported that its standalone net profit for the second quarter almost tripled, reaching 2,306 crore. Revenue climbed 33% year on year to an all-time quarterly high of 12,747 crore, covering the period through September 30. Much of the earnings jump came from a 3,968 crore dividend received from UltraTech Cement, which the company books as cash income in its standalone accounts.

On a consolidated basis, the company posted a loss of 234.08 crore, compared with a profit of 594.52 crore a year earlier. The result was weighed down by a 767 crore exceptional charge for impairment and estimated exposure linked to AV Group NB, a pulp joint venture in Canada. Consolidated revenue rose 26% to 50,105 crore, and consolidated EBITDA grew 25% to 6,513 crore. Source: Moody's.

why it matters

The gap between the two sets of numbers matters for investors. Because the UltraTech dividend is eliminated on consolidation, standalone profit paints a rosier picture than the group-level loss. In cellulosic fibres, revenue rose 29% to 5,344 crore and EBITDA climbed 49% to 522 crore.
