Ascent Bridge has guided for a loss in 1HFY2025 ended September, according to a Nov 6 bourse filing.

Currently, the group has established presence in 15 countries and markets and formed partnerships with 16 international airlines in duty free channels. That said, with manpower and cash constraints, the group could not carry on with marketing and promotional activities to boost sales, adds Ascent Bridge AWG .
