    Feb 15 (Reuters) - JB Hi-Fi Ltd (JBH) posted an 86.2% rise in half-year profit, driven by a sharp uptick in online sales as consumers flocked towards electronics and household goods amid COVID-19 lockdowns.

    The retailer said on Monday that net profit after tax grew to A$317.7 million ($246.6 million) for the half year ending Dec. 31, while online sales more than doubled to A$678.8 million.

    The Melbourne-based firm declared an interim dividend of A$1.80 per share.
