🧪 Godavari Biorefineries Q4 Results: ₹7,180 Cr PAT, 18% Revenue Growth — But Why Is the CMP Still Only ₹192?
Godavari Biorefineries Ltd posted a net profit of ₹7,180 lakh in FY25, up from ₹6,478 lakh last year. Revenue rose 11.7% YoY to ₹1,87,055 lakh. EPS stood at ₹14.05 — and yet the stock is sulking at just ₹192. Is this undervaluation or is the market smelling something fishy in the fermentation tank?
