Revenue from operations was down 21.20 per cent at Rs 1,853.27 crore during the quarter, as against Rs 2,352.12 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal.

"EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation) margin of the overall business increased 30 basis points on a year-on-year basis. This is on account of softening raw material prices and improved performance of advanced materials business," stated an earnings statement from Arvind.

"Advanced materials clocked 22.4 per cent growth on a year-on-year basis, resulting from both volume growth as well as better realisation," it said. Total income in the quarter was down 20.98 per cent to Rs 1,865.13 crore.

Arvind is one of the largest textile companies in India and is an end-to-end supply chain partner to the world's leading fashion brands. The company's shares settled at Rs 125.90 apiece on the BSE on Thursday, down 7.26 per cent.
