However, operating performance remained under pressure during the quarter. EBITDA declined 14.5% to Rs 555 crore, compared with Rs 649 crore in the same period last year.
As a result, the EBITDA margin contracted sharply to 13% from 17.5% a year earlier, reflecting higher costs and lower operating efficiency.
The earnings show that while Tata Chemicals managed to deliver double-digit revenue growth, profitability came under strain, with the decline in operating margins ultimately pushing the company into a quarterly loss.
The weaker margin performance suggests that cost pressures and an unfavourable operating environment offset the benefits of higher sales during the reporting period.
Investors are likely to monitor management commentary for indications on demand trends, pricing, input costs and the outlook for margins over the coming quarters.
Despite delivering strong double-digit revenue growth in the June quarter, Tata Chemicals saw its earnings come under pressure as a sharp decline in operating profitability prevented the higher top line from translating into bottom-line growth.
