United Breweries Q1 profit up 6% to Rs 184 cr
Net revenue rose 16% to Rs 5,380.78 crore, supported by higher demand, price realisations and continued premiumisation.
Earnings per share for the quarter stood at Rs 6.95, compared to Rs 6.56 a year earlier.
The company said its volume growth, achieved despite election-related disruption in the base quarter, translated into estimated market share gains, both overall and in the premium segment. Flagship brands including Kingfisher Ultra, Amstel Grande and Heineken Silver were key contributors.
Amstel Grande was introduced in Karnataka during the quarter, after earlier rollouts in Maharashtra, West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh.
Gross profit rose 14% year-on-year, although margins narrowed 50 basis points to 42.5%. Operating profit (EBIT) grew 10% to Rs 247.88 crore, even as UBL increased investments in branding, organisational capability and supply chain infrastructure.
Capital expenditure for the quarter stood at Rs 136 crore, nearly Rs 89 crore higher than the same period last year.

Footfall in RTO office reduces by 60%, says RTO
Mangaluru: The office of the Mangaluru RTO has witnessed a drastic decline in footfall, thanks to the online facilities in the Parivahan portal, said RTO Shridhar K Mallad. At a transport adalat held on Monday, the RTO stated that the Mangaluru RTO office issues an average of 500-600 Registration Certificate (RC) smart cards and 300-400 driving licences (DL) per day. In the past year, 1.4 lakh smart cards were delivered to applicants' addresses. Since the Parivahan portal offers options to apply for or renew licences and several other features, the majority of people have stopped visiting the RTO office. He requested people to update their mobile numbers in their RC and DL by logging on to the Parivahan portal so that all messages pertaining to various information will be delivered to the users' mobile phones. With e-challan systems implemented through the Command and Control Centre, owners now receive real-time notifications on traffic violations, vehicle fitness expiry, DL expiry, and other updates, he added. In response to a complaint raised by a participant, the RTO said the office premises are free from crowds. "People need to go to different counters at the RTO office to get their work done. They can apply for everything online through Parivahan. The RC and DL are sent to the applicant's address by speed post. There is no mess at the RTO office now as more than 60% of the applications are processed online. People need not come to the RTO office," he said. The govt has sanctioned Rs 1.5 crore for the renovation of the RTO office. The public works department will commence the work soon, he said. On a proposal to open pre-paid autorickshaw counters at railway stations in Mangaluru, the RTO mentioned that a team of officials has already conducted a study in Palakkad and Mysuru. A confusion regarding the rent for the pre-paid parking counters will be resolved soon to commence the system, he said. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
