The company, for Q4FY22, posted a consolidated net profit at Rs.35 crore, down from Rs.251 crore posted in Q4FY21 (YoY). This drop in net profit was after it charged a non-recurring expense of Rs.188 crore in Q4Fy22. And even if this expense was not charged off, the net profit was down 11%.

The stock is in the red after the market gave these numbers a thumbs down, saying that they came in way below expectations.
