Hyderabad: Hyderabad-based Mold-Tek Packaging Limited reported 30.32 per cent upswing in net profit to Rs 17.59 crore in the quarter (Q2) ended September in financial year 2021-22 as compared to Rs 13.50 crore in the previous corresponding period.

In spite of Covid, we continue to invest in new technologies and products."
