Sanghi Industries Faces Profit Decline Amidst Stable Sales Performance and Rising Costs

Sanghi Industries, a small-cap player in the cement industry, has recently undergone a financial trend adjustment, reflecting a flat performance for the quarter ending March 2025. The company's net sales reached a notable Rs 335.25 crore, marking a strong point in its financial metrics. However, challenges persist, particularly with a significant decline in profit after tax (PAT), which fell to Rs -116.91 crore, a drop of 76.1% compared to the previous four-quarter average. Additionally, interest expenses peaked at Rs 66.48 crore, and the profit before tax, less other income, recorded its lowest at Rs -127.65 crore.
In terms of stock performance, Sanghi Industries has faced a mixed trajectory when compared to the Sensex. Over the past week, the stock has declined by 6.10%, while it has shown a modest gain of 2.58% over the past month. Year-to-date, the stock has remained relatively flat, with a slight increase of 0.10%. However, over the longer term, the company has demonstrated resilience, with a remarkable 216.82% increase over the past five years, outpacing the Sensex's growth during the same period. This juxtaposition highlights the ongoing challenges and opportunities for Sanghi Industries in the competitive cement market.
