IRCTC posted its quarterly results for Q3 FY22 late on February 8, 2022. The Government company reported a 168% year on year (YoY) jump in its consolidated PAT which came in at Rs 208 crore for the quarter under review from Rs 78 crore in the year-ago period. On a sequential basis, the PAT jumped by 31% QoQ to Rs 158 crore in the previous quarter.

IRCTC’s revenue from operations clocked a 122% YoY increase at Rs 540 crore against Rs 225 crore in Q3 FY21. On a sequential basis, the revenue from operations was up 33% quarter on quarter (QoQ) from Rs 404 crore in Q2 FY22. The revenues from IRCTC’s entire spectrum of segments grew multi-fold and reported remarkable increases. The continuing stringent rules for flight travel seem to have given the railways an impetus in the quarter. 

However, the company’s total expenses saw a significant jump, particularly on the back of high catering and tourism services which make up the bulk of IRCTC’s business. The total expenses were up around 95% YoY to Rs 274 crore in the quarter under review from Rs 140 crore in the year ago period.

IRCTC also announced an interim dividend of Rs 2 per share that will be released to the shareholders on February 18, 2022.
