AI summary

The Board approved unaudited Q2 and half-year results for September 2026. Q2 revenue was Rs 82.99 crore, up 12.6 percent, while profit after tax rose to Rs 4.57 crore from Rs 1.74 crore. Half-year profit after tax nearly doubled to Rs 5.93 crore. However, operating cash flow was negative Rs 5.43 crore. The auditor reported no material misstatement.

Likely market impact

Strong profit growth supports sentiment, but negative operating cash flow signals weaker cash conversion and may weigh on the stock near term.
