Rupa & Co Ltd, a prominent knitwear brand in India, reported a significant decline in net profit for the fourth quarter, reaching Rs 18 crore ($2.2 million). This represents a 61% drop compared to the previous year's figure of Rs 49 crore.
The company's total income during the quarter also decreased by 10%, amounting to Rs 411 crore, in contrast to Rs 460 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year.

Despite these challenges, the company remains dedicated to enhancing operational efficiency, expanding its market reach, and seizing emerging opportunities for sustainable growth and long-term value creation.
