Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Standalone Q2 revenue rose 8.7 percent YoY to Rs 4,458 lakhs; standalone PAT jumped 205 percent to Rs 281 lakhs. H1 standalone PAT up 124 percent to Rs 533 lakhs. However consolidated Q2 PAT swung to a loss of Rs 699 lakhs versus loss of Rs 61 lakhs YoY, hurt by subsidiary Natural Biogenex which began commercial operations in March 2025 with costs outpacing early revenue. Board declined to subscribe to subsidiary Rights Issue citing cash flow commitments for ongoing projects. Auditors issued an unmodified limited review conclusion.
Standalone earnings look strong, but consolidated losses from new subsidiary raise caution. Cash flow needs may limit further support to the unit.
