The Dharamsi Morarji Chemical Co. Ltd reported a decline in its revenues as well as profits during first quarter of the current fiscal.

Net profit dropped by 20% yoy and reached Rs 5.42 crore as against profit of Rs 6.82 crore last year.

 

The nationwide lockdown impacted the operations of the company with capacity utilization at manufacturing plants at their lowest levels said the company in its filing to the exchanges.

Low customer demand coupled with supply chain disruptions adversely impacted the overall earnings in the first quarter.
