New Delhi, 2 June (IANS). The corporate world performance in India in the fourth quarter of FY 2025 was satisfactory. At the same time, there is scope for further increase after consumption in FY 2026. This information was given in the report released on Monday.
According to the Bank of Baroda (BOB) report, the total net sales of samples of 1,893 companies recorded 5.4 percent in the fourth quarter, while the net profit increased by 7.6 percent.
Economist Aditi Gupta said, “There are many areas that are expected to improve. The infrastructure -linked areas continue to have a steady growth despite the negative base effect. For consumer -associated areas such as FMCG and consumer durables, strong rural and seasonal demand assists stable improvement.”
The service sector industries also continued to register a steady increase amidst the speed of continuous demand.
The important thing is that despite the challenging global environment, companies remain positive about future development prospects.
“Stable commodity prices, low domestic inflation, favorable monsoon, trade deal, government capital expenditure and tax incentive can promote increase and demand,” he said.
In the fourth quarter, expenditure and interest costs low, which improved companies’ loans to repay loans.
Some large areas such as oil and gas, textile and iron and steel saw some softening in sales, which affected the overall sample.
The report states that it seems to be a one -time incident. Similarly, the BFSI segment saw some slow pace after a strong performance last year and it can be added to a slow pace in debt.
The performance seems quite stable, considering the reference to the turbulent global trade environment as well as the high basis of the previous year.
Last year, on a high basis of 20.7 percent and 14.3 percent, operations and net profit increased by 8.2 percent and 7.6 percent respectively in the fourth quarter of FY 2025.
The report said, “A total of 24 sectors have recorded a higher growth rate in net sales compared to comparative net sales for total samples (5.4 percent). For PAT (Profit after tax), 16 sector recorded a higher increase than sample averages (7.6 percent).”
