AI · written from filings

The company operates across three reported segments — Trading, Investments, and Leasing — with FY26 revenue from operations of ₹10.61 crore and net profit of ₹4.93 crore. For the year ended 31 March 2026, the Leasing segment generated ₹1.65 crore, Trading ₹1.07 crore and Investments ₹0.64 crore of segment revenue, while the segment-disclosure total for the period was ₹4.45 crore, pointing to additional unnamed revenue lines within the segment reporting. Materials cost is 0% of revenue and capex was 0% in FY26, indicating the company does not undertake manufacturing despite its specialty chemicals classification. Its main cost lines are other operating expenses (17.8% of revenue), depreciation (7.4%) and employee cost (6.4%). Active real estate management is visible in two FY26 transactions involving units at Sagar Estate, Kolkata — the sale of Unit 7B to a promoter-group company for ₹1.11 crore in March 2026 and board approval to sell Unit 7A in the same building in May 2026.
