AI summary

Crest Ventures, an RBI-registered NBFC, reported weaker numbers for Q3 FY26 on a YoY basis. Standalone revenue from operations fell to ₹2,559.49 lakhs from ₹3,521.17 lakhs a year ago (down ~27%), while 9M revenue declined to ₹9,544.03 lakhs from ₹12,767.90 lakhs. Standalone net profit after tax for Q3 was ₹949.76 lakhs (vs ₹1,125.38 lakhs) and for 9M was ₹3,442.51 lakhs (vs ₹7,394.41 lakhs), a drop of over 50% for the nine-month period. Consolidated 9M PAT fell to ₹4,078.47 lakhs from ₹8,225.28 lakhs. Net profit margin compressed sharply from 57.91% to 36.07% on a standalone 9M basis. The company redeemed old NCDs (₹93 crore) and issued fresh NCDs of ₹100 crore on Dec 23, 2025, of which ₹75 crore is unutilized. The Board also approved a demerger scheme moving part of the business into Crest Capital and Investment Limited, subject to approvals. The auditor issued an unmodified limited review but flagged an emphasis of matter on ₹15,529.75 lakhs in unsecured deposits with counterparties for joint development, secured by mortgage on properties.

Likely market impact

Sharp decline in profits and revenue YoY, coupled with margin compression, is negative for near-term sentiment; however, the demerger scheme, fresh NCD raise, and high capital adequacy (77.12%) provide structural support. Shareholders should watch for demerger approvals and clarity on the recovery of the ₹155+ crore deposits.
