Are National Standar latest results good or bad?

National Standard (India) has reported its financial results for the quarter ending June 2025, which indicate significant challenges in its operational performance. The company experienced a notable decline in key financial metrics, with Profit Before Tax less Other Income (PBT) reported at Rs -2.85 crore, a drastic shift from the previous average PBT of Rs 0.03 crore over the last four quarters. This reflects a substantial negative trend in profitability.
The Profit After Tax (PAT) also saw a reduction, falling to Rs 0.99 crore, which is a decrease from an average of Rs 3.30 crore in the prior four quarters. This indicates a decline in profitability and earnings for shareholders. Additionally, Operating Profit (PBDIT) reached its lowest level in five quarters at Rs -2.85 crore, highlighting ongoing operational difficulties.

The company's net sales showed a complete decline of 100% compared to the previous quarter, while the standalone net profit experienced a decrease of 72.50%. Furthermore, the operating profit margin, excluding other income, was reported at 0.00%, reflecting further challenges in maintaining operational efficiency.

Concerns have also been raised regarding the sustainability of the business model, as non-operating income constituted a significant portion of the PBT. In light of these results, the company saw an adjustment in its evaluation. Overall, the financial data suggests a period of considerable operational strain for National Standard (India).
