Paushak Ltd reported Q2 FY26 revenue from operations of Rs 5,878 lakhs, up about 2.6% from Rs 5,731 lakhs in Q2 FY25; H1 revenue grew roughly 4.9% to Rs 11,466 lakhs. However, total expenses rose faster (up about 10% YoY in Q2), pulling profit before tax down 33% YoY to Rs 1,134 lakhs in Q2 and 8% to Rs 2,697 lakhs in H1. Profit after tax fell to Rs 861 lakhs in Q2 (down 39% YoY) and Rs 2,065 lakhs in H1 (down ~16% YoY), with EPS dropping to Rs 27.94 for the quarter. Other income also fell sharply (H1: Rs 293 lakhs vs Rs 783 lakhs). The board approved a stock split (Rs 10 to Rs 5 face value) and a 3:1 bonus issue during the period, and the limited review was done by a new auditor, CNK & Associates LLP, replacing the predecessor auditor.
Despite modest revenue growth, shareholders should note a clear margin squeeze and a sharp drop in bottom-line profits, partly cushioned by a bonus issue and stock split. The change of statutory auditor in mid-year is an additional governance point worth tracking; near-term stock reaction may be mixed given weaker earnings offset by capital structure actions.
