The company had a consolidated loss after tax of Rs 1,126.82 crore in the same period a year ago, GMR Infrastructure said in a filing to the BSE. 

Its consolidated total income during the January-March period dropped marginally to Rs 2,519.25 crore from Rs 2,554.31 crore a year ago. 

''The group has incurred losses primarily on account of losses in the energy and highway sector...with a consequent impact on net worth, delay in debt and interest servicing and lower credit ratings for some of its borrowings,'' the filing said.

The group has received certain favourable orders on various ongoing matters in energy, highway and DFCC which involve significant value of claims. The management is optimistic of such favourable orders and believes that such claims will further improve its cash flows and profitability, it added.
