The brokerage firm has also revised its FY25/26E EPS estimates of Voltamp Transformers by -2.5%/-3.6%, factoring in expected margin normalization driven by a moderation in realizations against high base. 'The company's outlook remains positive, supported by strong demand from sectors such as data centers, steel, cement, and green energy, while commercial and industrial projects are expected to boost demand for IDT transformers. However, margins are expected to normalize going ahead due to a high base and rising competition,' it added.

Operating profit rose 18% year-on-year to ₹ 114.01 crores, up from ₹ 96.99 crores.

Voltamp Transformers also declared a record-breaking dividend of ₹ 100 per share (equivalent to 1000% of the ₹ 10 face value), marking the highest payout in the company's history. This results in a total distribution of ₹ 101.17 crore, which represents 43% of its net profit after accounting for capital expenditures and book profits.

‘NYT Mini' Clues And Answers For Monday, April 28
Mini Crossword NYT If you're looking for the answers for the NYT Mini Saturday, April 26 puzzle, those are here: The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper's larger and long-running crossword. Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays. Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you'll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives. The NYT Mini is a fun daily distraction that usually takes no time at all. I try to beat the standard weekday grid in less than a minute. But sometimes I can't quite figure out one or two clues and need to reveal the answer. To help you avoid doing that, here are the NYT Mini Crossword answers (spoilers lie ahead, of course): ACROSS 1) Chef's creation - DISH5) Iconic Madonna hit of 1990 - VOGUE6) Section of a tennis court used when playing doubles - ALLEY7) State of mind - MOOD8) Not amateur - PRO DOWN 1) Rarely-used word meaning "sadness" - DOLOR2) Snow place like home? - IGLOO3) Went after in court - SUED4) "Yo" - HEY5) Fill time on stage - VAMP Mini NYT Decently tough puzzle today with probably the most random word I've ever heard, Dolor, to the point where I had to look up the exact definition which is: A state of great sorrow or distress. "they squatted, hunched in their habitual dolor." That's some Dostoevsky stuff right there. Nothing else compares to that in this puzzle as you're going to know one of Madonna's biggest hits because 'Like a Virgin' sure doesn't fit in these spaces. Follow me on Twitter, YouTube, Bluesky and Instagram. Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.
