Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Ltd. shares plunged over 8% during early trade on Monday after it swung into a net loss in the first quarter of this financial year.
The company posted a standalone loss of Rs 271.97 crore in the quarter ended June, compared to a profit of Rs 363.4 crore in the previous quarter. It had reported a profit of Rs 65.57 crore in the year-ago period.
The results came after market hours on Friday.
Revenue from operations fell 29% to Rs 17,356 crore. Operating income, denoted under earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, sank 84% to Rs 180 crore. Margin contracted to 1% from 4.6% in the March quarter.
The first quarter earnings were impacted due to a longer-than-planned shutdown at the phase-II refinery (6-7 Million Tonnes Per Annum capacity, which produces high-value products) in May and June. Exports, which contribute 23% of revenue, also declined as a result of lower plant utilisation and the non-availability of the feedstock.
MRPL is majority owned by Oil and Natural Gas Corp.
