On the reaction day the stock moved 3.2 pts less than Nifty Microcap 250 and 3.0 pts less than its Other Agricultural Products 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.
Universal Starch-Chem Allied Ltd reported a turnaround in Q2 FY26 with a profit after tax of Rs 76.46 lacs versus a loss of Rs 821.78 lacs in Q2 FY25. Revenue from operations rose about 6.8% to Rs 9,713.69 lacs from Rs 9,093.12 lacs a year ago. For the half year (H1 FY26), the company is still in the red with a loss after tax of Rs 174.15 lacs, though sharply narrower than the Rs 675.33 lacs loss in H1 FY25; H1 revenue slipped marginally to Rs 21,857.88 lacs from Rs 22,419.87 lacs. Basic EPS for the quarter turned positive at Rs 1.82 against Rs (19.57) earlier. Operating cash flow remained healthy at Rs 1,149.97 lacs for the half year. The statutory auditor (M B Agrawal & Co) issued an unqualified limited review report with no qualifications or emphasis matters.
The Q2 swing back to profit and the sharp narrowing of half-year losses signal improving operating performance, which is a positive for shareholders. However, the half-year is still loss-making and revenue has softened slightly, so the recovery is early-stage and should be watched over coming quarters.
