Voltas net loss shrinks to Rs 27.60 crore in Q3, sales rise 32%

Total expenses increased 34.77% to Rs 2,623.67 crore in the December quarter of FY24

New Delhi: Air-conditioner maker and engineering services provider Voltas Ltd on Tuesday reported a narrowing of its consolidated net loss to Rs 27.60 crore in the third quarter of the current fiscal, boosted by festive season sales.

The Tata Group firm had witnessed a consolidated net loss of Rs 110.49 crore in the October-December period a year ago, the company said in a regulatory filing.

Voltas sales grew 31.78% to Rs 2,612.29 crore during the period under review. It was Rs 1,982.27 crore a year ago.

Total expenses increased 34.77% to Rs 2,623.67 crore in the December quarter of FY24. Voltas’ total income in the December quarter went up 31.8% to Rs 2,683.61 crore.

Revenue from “unitary cooling products for comfort and commercial use” was up 21.35% to Rs 1,475.61 crore during the period.

“The Unitary Cooling Products business continued to outperform the market and maintain its growth momentum in a relatively lean quarter,” the company said in an earnings statement.

While its overall volumes grew by 22%, the year-on-year growth for room air-conditioners was even higher at 27%, it said.

Revenue from “electro-mechanical projects and services”, which comprises domestic and international projects businesses, rose 51.43% in the December quarter to Rs 981.88 crore.

“Timely execution, focus on certification and other related project management initiatives have resulted in a robust bottom-line growth over the previous year. The domestic projects continue to grow its order pad and retain a positive outlook, given the increased infrastructure spending in the country,” it said.

Similarly, its “engineering products and services” revenue was 31.28% higher at Rs 154.80 crore in the reporting quarter.

“The segment continued to show improved performance on the back of a strong order backlog and disciplined execution efforts,” it said.

Shares of Voltas Ltd on Tuesday settled 2.50% down at Rs 1,014.80 apiece on the BSE.

Eagle Labs launches impirica CBD brand

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Eagle Labs has launched impirica, a new brand of CBD intended to eliminate consumer fear, and increase confidence, in trying the exciting new cannabidiol category. Michael Law Although most Americans have now heard about CBD, many are very confused and concerned about product quality. This is inhibiting trial in the category and holding back conversion into sales. In fact, a 2017 study by Johns Hopkins University found that two out of three CBD products on the shelf did not contain the amount of CBD reflected on the label. Furthermore, in 2018 and 2019, the FDA sent notices to a substantial number of CBD manufacturers advising them of serious concerns about product quality or egregious medical claims. The impirica brand looks different than most CBD brands — the brand name itself connotes testing and trust, says Eagle Labs chief commercial officer Michael Law. “It doesn’t use the traditional category colors of browns and greens, and you won’t find a hemp...
