Key takeaways
- Standalone Q4FY26 net profit was Rs 1.32 cr after tax of Rs 0.84 cr.
- Negative other income of Rs 0.63 cr reduced profit before tax to Rs 2.16 cr.
- Operating margin was 20.54% on revenue of Rs 13.94 cr, with expenses at Rs 11.08 cr.
Negative other income weakened the profit conversion
The standalone quarter generated Rs 2.86 cr of operating profit on revenue of Rs 13.94 cr. Other income was negative at Rs 0.63 cr, so the non-operating line reduced profit before tax rather than adding to it.
Tax took 38.79% of pre-tax profit
Tax of Rs 0.84 cr absorbed 38.79% of profit before tax, leaving Rs 1.32 cr of net profit. Interest was Rs 0.09 cr, while depreciation was negative at Rs 0.01 cr, making the negative other-income line the clearest drag below operating profit.
After-close filing leaves the market reaction open
The standalone results were filed after market close on 16 Sep 2026. The next trading session will provide the first market read-through to the Rs 0.29 EPS and the 20.54% operating margin.
