🔨 Ramkrishna Forgings Posted ₹408 Cr Profit — But There’s a ₹2,200 Cr Inventory Hole?
🟢 At a Glance:
Ramkrishna Forgings Ltd (RKFORGE) reported a strong ₹408 crore standalone net profit in FY25, announced a ₹1 dividend, and even approved ₹204.75 crore preferential warrants for promoters. Sounds bullish? Not so fast. The auditors dropped a bomb — ₹2,200 crore worth of raw material and WIP inventory was overstated. Yes. That’s not a typo.
