Multi-brand retail chain V-Mart on Monday reported 46.79 percent increase in its net profit to Rs 1.60 crore for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2015. The company had posted a net profit of Rs 1.09 crore during the January-March period of previous financial year.

"During this quarter, the focus was on inventory rationalisation whereby the quantity and quality was to be optimised. To achieve this objective of clearing seasonal stock the company resorted to clearance sales and promotions. This has helped us achieve our objective even though we may have lost on some margins," said V-Mart Retail Chairman & Managing Director Lalit Agarwal.

Over the future outlook of the company, he said: "The retail chain is looking at IT to help drive efficiencies across various domains and also facilitate better process and controls".
