Consolidated revenue from operations was Rs 75.05 crore for the six months ended 30 September 2026 versus Rs 42.04 crore a year earlier, up 78.5%; PAT was Rs 9.44 crore versus Rs 6.17 crore, and EPS was Rs 12.31 versus Rs 8.04. No separate latest-quarter figures are provided. Operating cash flow was negative Rs 14.36 crore, while borrowings were 0.22 times equity. Standalone half-year revenue and PAT were Rs 75.05 crore and Rs 9.50 crore.
Profit growth supports sentiment, but negative operating cash flow may weigh on the stock despite borrowings being low relative to equity.
