Sharekhan's research report on Atul
Topline rose 17% y-o-y and 5% q-o-q, with operating Profit of Rs. 243 crore and adjusted PAT of Rs. 112 Crore surpassing our estimates, attributed to margin enhancements in LSC and POC.

Stable operations at Atul Products Ltd and higher sales from other Group companies such as Amal Ltd, Rudolf Atul Chemicals Ltd, and DPD Ltd, contributed to the increase in volume. Although selling prices were lower, reduced input costs led to a rise in profit.
