Classic Leasing and Finance posted FY26 total income of Rs. 150.71 lakhs, up 70% year on year. Profit after tax jumped to Rs. 111.68 lakhs from Rs. 26.17 lakhs, with EPS at Rs. 2.22. The company raised Rs. 1,063.75 lakhs via a preferential share issue in January 2026 for working capital, turning net worth positive at Rs. 757.15 lakhs. However, the auditor issued a qualified opinion, flagging inability to value certain investments and non-provisioning of a Rs. 316.31 crore contingent liability tied to a corporate guarantee given for Kohinoor Steel, which is under insolvency proceedings.
Strong profit growth is positive, but the qualified auditor opinion and Rs. 316.31 crore unprovided contingent liability raise serious risk concerns.
