The company recognized an exceptional item of ₹1.77 crore in standalone results and ₹4.56 crore in consolidated results due to the revised definition of wages under the New Labour Code, effective November 2025. The Guinea business recorded improved profitability in Q3 FY26, driven by reduced demurrage charges and operational efficiencies. However, a moderation in EBITDA is expected due to softening bauxite prices. The Iron Ore business is in a trial phase with limited volumes executed in Q3. India businesses (Divisions b, c, and d) saw a moderation in profitability. Division b margins were impacted by rising input costs and a higher proportion of lower-margin products. Division c profitability was affected by increased sulphuric acid prices. Division d performance remained stable.
