Net profit declined to Rs 57.83 crore in October-December 2024 - the third quarter of April 2024 to March 2025 fiscal (FY25) - from Rs 1,888.45 crore earnings a year back, the company said in a statement.

Revenue from operations declined 9 per cent to Rs 22,848.42 crore.

Pre-tax profit (EBITDA) from the coal trading segment, which contributes more than a third of overall revenue, halved to Rs 745 crore as volumes fell.

The volume drop was primarily because of lower demand from the power sector where the share of renewable energy sources has risen.

Third quarter profit was also impacted due to "high notional forex loss in finance cost of Australia mining due to depreciation of Australian dollar," it said.
