For Q2 FY2024, DBL reported a 93.6 per cent year-on-year increase in consolidated net profit, reaching Rs 2.7 billion, driven by an exceptional gain. EBITDA grew by 8.7 per cent to Rs 5.2 billion, with a margin improvement to 19.8 per cent. However, revenue declined by 16.4 per cent to Rs 26.2 billion, mainly due to slower EPC ordering activity.
