VIP Clothing Ltd faced a setback in Q2 FY24, reporting a net loss of Rs 2 crore ($2,40,658), compared to Rs 1.5 crore in the same period last year. The company's revenue dipped by one percent to Rs 52 crore, attributing the decline to softened demand in the industry during the quarter.
EBITDA margins plummeted from 5.21% in Q2 FY23 to 1.29% in Q2 FY24, primarily due to a 35-person increase in the employee count, aimed at bolstering capabilities for growth programs and promotions.
