Real estate major DLF on Tuesday reported a 46 per cent fall in its consolidated net profit for the quarter ended December at Rs 98.14 crore on lower sales and higher finance costs. The company had posted a net profit of Rs 182.11 crore in the same quarter a year ago. "The performance in the last quarter was subdued as markets adjusted itself to new paradigm initiated by the demonetization move," DLF said in a stock exchange filing. "While demonetization is extremely positive for the company and the industry, it has had a short-term negative impact on secondary sales, which in turn has impacted primary off-take.
The company expects this period of adjustment may continue for next few quarters till the time secondary market stabilizes and customers start to purchase new products," it added. DLF's income from operations fell 30 per cent to Rs 2,057.92 crore in the quarter in consideration, from Rs 2,949.54 crore in the corresponding period of the last fiscal. Finance costs rose to Rs 758.64 crore during the period in question, from Rs 670.6 crore in the third quarter of last year. Instead, tax expenses in the December quarter fell sharply to Rs 51.58 crore from Rs 238.88 crore.
