| Metric | Q1FY26 | Q4FY26 | Q1FY25 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue from operations | ₹0.00 lakh | ₹6.01 lakh | ₹13.98 lakh |
| Other income | ₹10.11 lakh | ₹3.00 lakh | ₹1.25 lakh |
| Total Income | ₹10.11 lakh | ₹9.01 lakh | ₹15.23 lakh |
| Total Expenses | ₹9.48 lakh | ₹43.70 lakh | ₹13.94 lakh |
| Profit Before Tax | ₹0.63 lakh | (₹34.69) lakh | ₹1.29 lakh |
| Net Profit / (Loss) | ₹0.47 lakh | (₹32.84) lakh | ₹0.96 lakh |
Expenses for the quarter totaled ₹9.48 lakh, a significant decrease from ₹43.70 lakh in the prior quarter. Key expense components included employee benefits of ₹1.86 lakh, depreciation and amortization of ₹3.15 lakh, and other expenses of ₹4.00 lakh. Finance costs were recorded at ₹0.47 lakh.
What the Numbers Show
The return to profitability in Q1FY26 was not driven by core operating activities, as revenue from operations remained at zero. Instead, the profit was sustained by a sharp rise in other income, which jumped from ₹3.00 lakh in Q4FY26 to ₹10.11 lakh in the current quarter. This indicates that the bottom-line improvement is contingent on non-operating inflows rather than business volume or sales generation.
The company’s paid-up equity share capital remains unchanged at ₹959.40 lakh. Earnings per share stood at ₹0.00 for the quarter, compared to a loss of ₹0.03 per share in both the previous quarter and the same period last year.
