On the reaction day the stock moved 4.7 pts less than its Specialty Chemicals peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
For the consolidated quarter ended 30 September 2026, revenue was Rs 7,592.83 lakh, up 16.7% from Rs 6,506.03 lakh in Q2 FY26; profit after tax was Rs 28.49 lakh, down 91.9% from Rs 353.37 lakh. Operating margin before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation fell from 9.8% to 3.9%. Consolidated half year: net loss Rs 62.07 lakh; operating cash flow was negative Rs 1,677.55 lakh. Prior figures were regrouped without material effect.
Revenue growth helps, but the 92% profit drop, half-year net loss and negative cash flow may pressure earnings and stock sentiment.
