The company's net profit increased to Rs 6.45 crore, indicating an increase in profit compared to previous quarters, a jump of 136% on a sequential basis. The net profit of the company in Q2FY24 was 2.73 crore.

However, the profit has dipped on a YoY basis as the company reported a net profit of Rs 7.08 crore in Q3FY23.

Earlier, the agro-commodities company said that it would commence direct procurement from farmers with a specific focus on seizing emerging market potential in Eastern India. 

"By venturing into maize procurement, the company aims to tap into various industries, including ethanol and ethanol-based products production, thereby contributing significantly to sustainable development and economic prosperity," the company said in a release. 

The announcement holds significance as it comes at a time when trade estimates suggest that maize prices increased by 20 per cent in the first two weeks of January when compared to the prices in October.
