On the reaction day the stock moved 3.1 pts less than Nifty Microcap 250 and 4.5 pts less than its Gems Jewellery And Watches peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
The board approved Q1 FY26 (quarter ended June 30, 2025) results with standalone revenue from operations of ₹724.91 crore, up about 81% year-on-year from ₹400.54 crore. Net profit stood at ₹164.15 crore versus ₹154.80 crore in the same quarter last year, while profit before tax nearly doubled to ₹163.75 crore from ₹83.41 crore. The statutory auditor, however, issued a qualified (modified) review conclusion flagging three unresolved legacy issues: ₹183.16 crore in export customer discounts from FY19 still awaiting RBI/AD bank approvals, ₹592.33 crore in export trade receivables overdue for over 9 months (with ECL provision of ₹184.03 crore), and inventory stuck under DRT/DRAT court custody since January 2023 pending a one-time settlement. The board also appointed M/s R S Sharma & Associates as Secretarial Auditor for a 5-year term (FY26–FY30) and approved a corrigendum to the July 10, 2025 postal ballot notice for the preferential issue of warrants and equity shares. EPS has been restated for the face value change from ₹10 to ₹1.
Strong revenue growth and a healthy profit print are positive, but the auditor's qualified opinion and the persistence of export-related regulatory gaps and court-custody inventory keep governance and asset-quality concerns alive. Shareholders should track progress on RBI approvals, recovery of overseas receivables, and release of locked inventory, as these remain key overhangs on the stock.
