The company had posted a consolidated loss after tax of Rs 16 crore in the corresponding quarter last fiscal, Wockhardt Ltd said in a regulatory filing.
Consolidated revenue from operations in the quarter was marginally down at Rs 738 crore against Rs 739 crore in the year-ago period, it added.
Total expenses in the quarter under review were lower at Rs 770 crore compared to Rs 775 crore in the same period a year ago, the company said.
