Lakshmi Electrical Control Systems reported Q3 FY26 revenue from operations of ₹5,839.01 lakhs, up about 18% from ₹4,936.81 lakhs in Q3 FY25. For the nine months ended December 2025, revenue rose to ₹16,910.93 lakhs from ₹15,420.87 lakhs, a growth of nearly 10%. However, the company slipped into a loss, posting a Q3 loss after tax of ₹105.33 lakhs against a profit of ₹13.09 lakhs a year ago, and a marginal nine-month loss of ₹0.03 lakhs versus a profit of ₹76.87 lakhs last year. The Electricals segment grew but turned loss-making, while the Plastics segment loss widened sharply despite strong revenue growth of over 45%. Costs surged, with employee expenses up roughly 30% and other expenses up over 50% year-on-year, squeezing margins. The results include a small exceptional item of ₹1.74 lakhs related to the new Labour Codes impact on gratuity.
Despite solid top-line growth, the sharp rise in operating costs pushed the company into a quarterly loss, signalling margin pressure and weak operating leverage. Shareholders should note the deterioration in profitability despite revenue growth, which may weigh on the stock in the near term.
