Rajapalayam Mills Faces Financial Challenges Amid Mixed Performance Indicators

Rajapalayam Mills, a microcap player in the Garments & Apparels industry, has recently undergone a financial trend adjustment, reflecting a flat performance for the quarter ending March 2025. The company's score has notably shifted, indicating challenges in its financial metrics over the past three months.
On a positive note, the company reported a higher profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 28.67 crore over the latest six months.

Additionally, the quarterly PAT fell sharply to Rs -5.38 crore, a staggering decrease of 167.6%.

Year-to-date, the stock has declined by 17.88%, in stark contrast to the Sensex's 4.06% increase. Despite a strong performance over the longer term, with a 231.22% return over the last decade, recent trends highlight the need for the company to address its current financial challenges.
