SUMMARY

Shares of PCBL were trading 8.21% lower at ₹359 apiece on the NSE. The company's net profit dropped 37% on-year to ₹93 crore in the October-December quarter, sharply lower than the ₹148 crore that it clocked in the same period last year. The decline in the company's bottom line was largely driven by a spike in operating costs.
