Lotus Chocolate reported unaudited results for Q3 FY26 (Dec'25) and 9M FY26, which were reviewed by Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP with a clean (unqualified) limited review report. Revenue from operations for Q3 stood at Rs 13,363 lakh, down from Rs 16,044 lakh in Q2 FY26 and Rs 14,669 lakh in Q3 FY25, while 9M FY26 revenue rose about 9% to Rs 45,278 lakh from Rs 41,630 lakh a year ago. Profit after tax collapsed to just Rs 14 lakh in Q3 (vs Rs 144 lakh in Q2 and Rs 372 lakh in Q3 FY25), and 9M FY26 PAT fell sharply to Rs 457 lakh from Rs 1,581 lakh in the year-ago period, a drop of roughly 71%. EPS for 9M FY26 stood at Rs 3.56 vs Rs 12.31 earlier. Note 6 disclosed that the 51% promoter stake earlier held by Reliance Consumer Products Limited was transferred to Reliance Consumer Products Limited (formerly Tira Beauty Limited) effective Dec 1, 2025, making it the new promoter and holding company.
Sharp profit compression in Q3 and across 9M FY26 despite modest revenue growth signals significant cost pressure and weak operating leverage, which is negative for near-term shareholder returns. The promoter reshuffle within the Reliance group is a structural change and may not alter ultimate ownership, but it warrants attention for any group-level strategic decisions.
