Sequentially, however, the profit was down 32 per cent as the miner had recorded a profit of Rs 8,834 crore in the first quarter of the fiscal.

Its consolidated revenue from operations also surged 28.11 per cent year-on-year (YoY) to Rs 29,839 crore compared to Rs 23,291 crore in the same quarter last year.

Sequentially, the revenue took a hit as monsoon rains affected dispatches and production.

The Board of Directors also announced the first interim dividend for FY23 at Rs 15 per share of the face value of Rs 10 each.
