Godrej Industries on Thursday reported a consolidated net profit of Rs 63.76 crore for the first quarter ended June 30.

The company had posted a net profit of Rs 62.73 crore in the April-June quarter a year-ago, Godrej Industries said in a Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) filing.

"I am pleased to share that in Q1FY17 Godrej Industries Limited recorded a healthy growth of 33 per cent in consolidated total income," Godrej Industries chairman A B Godrej said.

Meanwhile, Godrej Industries said its results were not comparable due to changes in the shareholdings of its subsidiaries.

"In view of changes in the Company's shareholdings during the period in some of the subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, the consolidated results for the period are not strictly comparable with those of the previous periods," the company said.

Over the outlook, he said:"We are hopeful that the good monsoons in India should lead to a pick up in rural demand later this year. We should also see a boost to consumption in India, following the implementation of 7th Pay Commission and the passing of the Goods & Services Tax".
