Leading tyre manufacturer MRF Ltd. standalone net profit for the third quarter ended December contracted by 71.49% to ₹145.85 crore, due to higher raw material prices and changes in inventories of finished goods.
During the period under review, revenue from operations rose 6% to ₹4,830 crore. Total expenditure grew by ₹751 crore to ₹4,701.55 crore.
Cost of materials consumed increased by 14% to ₹2,989 crore. Changes in inventories of finished goods saw a loss of ₹106 crore against a gain of ₹224 crore, it said in a regulatory filing.

The U.S. has launched two investigations under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 against India and other economies to examine practices that may be ‘unreasonable or discriminatory and burden or restrict U.S. commerce’. One probe examines whether countries, including India, are using excess manufacturing capacity to export to the U.S. in a manner that hurts American businesses, while another looks at whether countries have taken ‘sufficient steps’ to prohibit imports of goods produced with forced labour.
