Dharani Finance Limited, an NBFC, reported a strong turnaround for FY25 with total revenue from operations rising to Rs. 142.43 lakhs from Rs. 79.28 lakhs in FY24, and a net profit of Rs. 84.54 lakhs compared to a loss of Rs. 30.40 lakhs in the previous year. Q4 FY25 standalone profit stood at Rs. 18.89 lakhs versus Rs. 23.03 lakhs in Q4 FY24. Total assets grew to Rs. 1,018.78 lakhs and net worth rose to Rs. 948.35 lakhs. However, the statutory auditors issued a Qualified Opinion with a Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern, flagging that an inter-corporate deposit of Rs. 200 lakhs given to M/s. Aryav Exports Private Limited in July 2017 has not received any interest and remains unrecovered. If provisions were made, net owned funds would fall below the RBI's Section 45-IA threshold for NBFCs, raising doubts about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. This is the 8th consecutive year of this qualification. The board also appointed a new Internal Auditor and a new Secretarial Auditor for 5 years.
While the return to profitability and strong revenue growth are positives, the repeated qualified audit opinion and going concern warning from the auditor is a significant red flag for shareholders. The unresolved Rs. 200 lakhs ICD to Aryav Exports and its potential impact on RBI's NBFC capital adequacy norms could weigh on the stock and investor confidence. Shareholders should watch for any capital infusion plans or recovery of stuck dues.
