Fruit drinks manufacturer Manpasand Beverages today reported 1.30 per cent rise in net profit at Rs 36.37 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
The company had posted a net profit of Rs 35.9 crore during the year-ago period.
Total revenue stood at Rs 340.06 crore in the reported quarter. It was Rs 392.94 crore in April-June 2017, the company said in a BSE filing.
It said revenue from operations is not comparable with the corresponding year-ago quarter due to implementation of GST from July 1, 2017.
"Issues unrelated to operations caused some spill-over and impacted our business in June. Despite this challenge, we managed to perform relatively well and kept ourselves focussed on expansion and product development. Operations are now back to normal and we continue to be confident about our growth plans," Chairman and MD Dhirendra Singh said.
In May this year, the company's statutory auditor Deloitte Haskins & Sells resigned ahead of a board meeting scheduled for May 30 for consideration of financial results.
