Profit after tax for Q2 FY25 stood at Rs 45.1 million, down from Rs 64.1 million in the same period last year, according to a BSE filing.

During this period, we also acquired an additional 3.84 acres of land, expanding our total land aggregation for new township projects to 65 acres. We plan to seek approvals for about 45 acres soon, with potential revenue exceeding Rs 6 billion. We anticipate launching this project early next year."
