KARACHI: Engro Ferti­lisers Ltd posted earnings of Rs6.4 billion in October-December 2022, up 3.8 per cent from a year ago, a stock notice said on Thursday.

The fourth-quarter res­ult took the full-calendar year income to Rs16bn, down 24pc from the preceding 12-month period.

According to Alfalah CLSA Securities Ltd, a tax reversal of Rs0.89bn led to the rise of 53pc in the quarterly earnings on a sequential basis.
