Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
S Chand and Company reported wider Q1 FY27 losses. Standalone revenue fell to Rs 416.78M from Rs 426.86M YoY, with loss deepening to Rs 90.23M from Rs 27.78M. Consolidated revenue rose to Rs 1145.48M from Rs 1026.21M, but loss widened to Rs 187.30M from Rs 140.66M. The company cites seasonality, with book sales peaking in Jan-March before academic sessions. Board re-appointed Walker Chandiok as statutory auditor for 5 years; AGM set for September 23.
Loss widened at both levels despite consolidated revenue growth, raising concerns on profitability; auditor continuity offers some stability.
