Shares of Dixon Technologies (India) Ltd. fell as much as 4% on Friday after the electronics manufacturing services (EMS) company reported June-quarter earnings that were flattered by a sharp jump in one-time other income, while its core operating performance weakened.

The company reported a consolidated net profit of Rs 663 crore for the quarter ended June, nearly three times the Rs 225 crore posted a year ago. However, the surge was largely driven by a spike in other income, which jumped to Rs 528 crore from Rs 2 crore in the year-ago period.
