India’s largest iron-ore manufacturer NMDC today announced its quarterly results and termed the Q1 FY22 results as one of its best Q1 performances since the inception of the enterprise. NMDC reported a whopping 500% y-o-y increase in the consolidated net profit at Rs 3,191.45 crore.

The state-owned mineral-producing company also reported a 423% EBITDA rise at Rs 4,322 crore. NMDC had last week announced that the prices of lump iron ore will be cut by Rs 300/tonne. Although iron ore rates in the international market remain volatile and jittery, NMDC reported a 236% increase in its revenue from operations at Rs 6,512.21 crore.

NMDC’s stock closed in the green at Rs 174.25 after rising by 1.43% at the end of the intra-day trading session ahead of its Q1 FY22 results.

NMDC Ltd. Demerger

Govt-owned NMDC Ltd. last month initiated the process of separating its steel unit in a demerger. NMDC Steel Ltd has been a subsidiary of NMDC Ltd and currently does not have any business operations. Although the demerger has been given a green signal by NMDC Ltd board of directors, the move still awaits the nod of investors, SEBI, and the Union ministry of corporate affairs.  

What does this mean for the investor?

NMDC has reported a consistent rise in net profit and revenue amid a wobbly iron ore international market. There were reports of NMDC Steel Ltd demerger. A nod for a demerger could point towards divestment of the steel plant. With the NMDC setting up a 3 MTPA integrated steel plant in Chhattisgarh’s Nagamar, analysts expect the demerger to pave the way for value unlocking since the market has not ascribed a value to the steel plant yet.
