Anand Projects Limited reported a standalone net loss of ₹6.45 lakh for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026, marking a significant contraction from the ₹305.71 lakh loss posted in the preceding quarter. The improvement was primarily driven by a substantial reduction in other expenses, which fell to ₹14.32 lakh from ₹443.39 lakh in the previous period. Revenue from operations remained stable at ₹25.00 lakh, matching the immediate prior quarter but declining from ₹30.00 lakh in the corresponding quarter of FY26. This development signals improved cost control within the company’s core engineering, procurement, and construction segment, although revenue generation remains below year-ago levels.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results on July 28, 2026, in compliance with Regulation 33 and Regulation 47 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and subjected to a limited review by Chopra Vimal & Co., the company’s statutory auditors. The financial results were published in Financial Express (English) and Jansatta (Hindi) on July 29, 2026, as required under regulatory guidelines.

Financial Performance

Total income for the quarter stood at ₹25.26 lakh, comprising ₹25.00 lakh from operations and ₹0.26 lakh from other income. This compares to total income of ₹49.16 lakh in the previous quarter, which included a one-time other income component of ₹19.16 lakh. Total expenses decreased significantly to ₹32.39 lakh from ₹457.69 lakh in the prior quarter. Employee benefits expense rose to ₹18.01 lakh from ₹14.21 lakh, while depreciation and amortization expenses remained negligible at ₹0.06 lakh. The profit before tax stood at ₹(7.13) lakh, compared to ₹(408.53) lakh in the previous quarter.

Consolidated Results and Associate Impact

The consolidated financial results were identical to the standalone figures, reflecting nil contribution from the company’s associate, Ojas Industries Private Limited, in which Anand Projects holds a 49.50% stake. The auditor’s report noted that the associate’s interim financial results were not material to the company and had not been reviewed by their auditors. The company’s share of profit from the associate was offset against earlier period unrecognised losses and cost of investments. Equity share capital remained unchanged at ₹93.43 lakh.

What the Numbers Show

The primary driver for the narrowed loss in Q1FY27 was the normalization of other expenses. The previous quarter’s expense figure of ₹443.39 lakh appears anomalous compared to the current quarter’s ₹14.32 lakh and the same quarter last year’s ₹15.72 lakh. This suggests that the prior period’s loss was heavily influenced by non-recurring or exceptional costs rather than operational inefficiencies. With operating expenses stabilizing, the company shows improved cost control, although revenue generation remains below year-ago levels, indicating a need for growth in core business activities.

Anand Projects Limited has changed the designation of Omparkash Verma from Non-Executive, Independent Director to Non-Executive, Non-Independent Director. The Board of Directors approved the change during a meeting held on July 28, 2026, with the new designation effective from the same date. This structural adjustment alters the composition of the Board’s independent member segment.

The company notified the Bombay Stock Exchange Limited of the change pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The designation shift aligns with Section 149(1) of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Appointment and Qualifications of Directors) Rules, 2014. Pranjali Gupta, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer (M.No-A67377), signed the intimation on July 28, 2026.

Board Composition Change

Omparkash Verma, holding DIN 07411027, previously served as a Non-Executive, Independent Director. Under the revised structure, he continues in a non-executive capacity but loses his independent status. This change reduces the count of independent directors on the Board, which may have implications for compliance with mandatory independent director ratios under the Companies Act.

Regulatory Compliance

The intimation was filed with the Corporate Relations Department of the Bombay Stock Exchange Limited, located at Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers, Dalal Street, Mumbai. The filing references BSE Scrip Code 501630. The company’s registered office is located at 304, Ajadpura, Lalitpur-284403, Uttar Pradesh, while its Noida office operates from Sector-18, Gautam Budh Nagar.
