Munoth Capital Markets, a small stock broker and depository participant, reported a loss of Rs. 10.61 lakhs for Q1 FY26 versus a profit of Rs. 8.85 lakhs in the same quarter last year. Total income fell sharply to Rs. 11.34 lakhs from Rs. 20.78 lakhs year-on-year, weighed down by a Rs. 3.55 lakh loss on sale of derivatives. Total expenditure more than doubled to Rs. 21.95 lakhs, driven mainly by a jump in employee costs (Rs. 5.84 lakhs vs Rs. 0.28 lakhs) and other expenses (Rs. 12.40 lakhs vs Rs. 8.07 lakhs). EPS turned negative at -Rs. 0.12, compared to Rs. 0.10 in Q1 FY25. The auditor issued an unmodified limited review report, and prior-period figures were restated under Ind-AS for comparability.
The swing to a quarterly loss and sharp cost inflation may concern shareholders, though the absolute numbers are small for a company with Rs. 458.30 lakhs paid-up capital. Expect short-term weakness in sentiment given the cost overruns and derivative loss.
