Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Creative Newtech reported strong revenue growth in FY26 with total income doubling year-on-year to Rs. 718.36 crore in Q4 and reaching Rs. 2,568.90 crore for the full year, up 54%. However, profitability margins compressed: EBITDA margin held flat at 3.32% in Q4 (up just 3bps) but fell to 2.63% for the full year (down 8bps YoY), while PAT margin dropped to 1.34% in FY26 from 1.53% in FY25. The company attributed growth to new distribution partnerships (Kaspersky, PDRL) and major government orders including body-worn cameras for RTOs and disaster management kits. Chairman cited expanding presence in surveillance, IoT, AI, cybersecurity, and drone segments as positioning the company for digital transformation demand.
Top-line growth is impressive at over 50%, but margin compression despite higher absolute EBITDA and PAT numbers signals pricing pressure or cost scaling challenges, which cautious investors may focus on alongside the strong order pipeline.
