Revenue growth reduced the quarterly loss

Operating margin improved but stayed below zero
Expenses grew slower than revenue sequentially, improving operating margin by 25.96 percentage points to -15.30%. The company still spent more than it earned from operations, leaving operating profit at a loss of Rs 0.08 cr. There was no interest charge, depreciation charge, or tax benefit affecting the reported loss.
Sequential momentum improved from Q1FY27
Operating profit and profit before tax both improved 57.89% sequentially, while EPS improved 55.56% to a loss of Rs 0.08. The available trend shows one prior quarter, so it supports a quarter-on-quarter recovery but not a multi-quarter direction. The key change was the shift from a -41.26% operating margin in Q1FY27 to -15.30%.
