According to the financials, Ram Ratna Wires has shown positive performance in the second quarter of FY24-25, with a score improvement from 7 to 11 in the last three months. The company's Profit After Tax (PAT) for the half-yearly period has grown by 32.47% year on year, and the trend for PAT in the near term is positive.

This suggests that the company has taken on more borrowings. Moreover, the Operating Profit Margin (OPM) and Net Profit Margin (NPM) for the quarter are at their lowest in the last five quarters, indicating a decline in profitability in the near term.
