El Forge Limited submitted audited standalone financial results for Q4 and the year ended March 31, 2025, along with key auditor appointments. Full-year revenue from operations rose about 11.4% year-on-year to roughly Rs. 76.13 crore, up from Rs. 68.32 crore in FY24. However, net profit for FY25 came in at just Rs. 25.78 lakhs versus Rs. 711.20 lakhs in FY24, with the prior year boosted by a one-time extraordinary gain of about Rs. 59.56 crore. Stripping out exceptional and extraordinary items, profit before tax dropped from Rs. 156.35 lakhs in FY24 to Rs. 25.78 lakhs in FY25, pointing to clear margin compression. Statutory auditor D. Venkatesan issued an unmodified opinion on the results. The Board also appointed Mrs. Satyadevi Alamuri as Secretarial Auditor and VRKSPJ & Co as Internal Auditor for FY26, and fixed the 89th AGM for June 20, 2025.
The picture for shareholders is mixed: revenue is growing but profitability has sharply weakened on a like-for-like basis, with core earnings power materially lower than last year. The company carries no borrowings and generated positive operating cash flow of around Rs. 2.4 crore, which provides some comfort, but the steep drop in bottom-line profit warrants caution.
