Shyamkamal Investments, an RBI-registered non-banking finance company focused on trading and investments in securities, reported a strong turnaround for FY25. Net sales/operating income surged to Rs. 158.15 lakh from just Rs. 0.91 lakh in FY24, while total income jumped to Rs. 186.32 lakh. Profit after tax flipped from a loss of Rs. 21.06 lakh to a profit of Rs. 50.32 lakh, with basic EPS of Rs. 0.37. Q4 FY25 was particularly strong, with a standalone PAT of Rs. 104.80 lakh versus a loss of Rs. 28 lakh in Q4 FY24. The Board also declared an interim dividend of Rs. 0.20 per equity share (face value Rs. 10). However, the auditor issued a qualified opinion citing (i) absence of an audit trail as the company migrates to a new ERP system, and (ii) inability to independently verify recovery of Rs. 80 lakh outstanding from a joint-venture counterparty. Total assets expanded sharply to Rs. 1,964.69 lakh (from Rs. 425.20 lakh), but this was funded largely through short-term borrowings that rose to Rs. 1,207.57 lakh, pushing the debt-to-equity ratio to 1.61 (from 0.09) and operating cash flow remained negative at Rs. (25.87) lakh.
Investors should note the positive earnings turnaround and dividend, but exercise caution due to the qualified audit opinion, the unsecured Rs. 80 lakh joint-venture receivable, a sharply higher leverage profile (debt/equity of 1.61), and persistently negative operating cash flow indicating the business is still reliant on external funding.
