Anka India Limited reported a consolidated net profit of ₹5.20 lakh for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, reversing a net loss of ₹51.63 lakh recorded in the previous quarter. The company’s revenue from operations rose 4.4% quarter-on-quarter to ₹276.46 lakh, up from ₹264.69 lakh in the three months ended March 31, 2026. This improvement in profitability comes after the company completed the acquisition of Futech Internet Private Limited through a share swap arrangement, which was effectively allotted on June 11, 2025, resulting in a reverse merger situation under Ind AS 103.
The Board of Directors approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results on July 30, 2026, in compliance with Regulation 30 and Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The results were reviewed by the audit committee and subsequently approved by the Board. Statutory auditors R.S. Prabhu & Associates issued a limited review report on both the standalone and consolidated financial statements.
Financial Performance Highlights
The consolidated results show a total revenue of ₹283.54 lakh for the quarter, compared to ₹295.92 lakh in the previous quarter. Total expenses decreased significantly to ₹275.31 lakh from ₹342.15 lakh in the prior period, primarily due to a sharp reduction in employee benefits expense, which fell to ₹78.15 lakh from ₹263.24 lakh. Other expenses, however, saw an increase to ₹149.17 lakh from ₹33.31 lakh in the previous quarter.

On a standalone basis, Anka India Limited reported a net profit of ₹0.40 lakh for the quarter, compared to a net profit of ₹2.32 lakh in the previous quarter. Standalone revenue from operations stood at ₹105.00 lakh, a significant increase from ₹18.00 lakh in the prior quarter. The standalone results were also qualified by the statutory auditors.
Auditor Qualifications
R.S. Prabhu & Associates qualified the consolidated financial results citing two primary issues. First, the consolidation resulted in the recognition of goodwill amounting to ₹18,96,38,548, which has not been tested for impairment as of June 30, 2026. Second, the company continues to recognize minimum alternative tax paid in previous years, amounting to ₹35.38 lakh, as an asset, expecting it to be adjusted against future tax payments. The auditors noted that considering the history of losses, recognizing this amount as an asset may not be prudent.
For the standalone results, the auditors raised a similar qualification regarding the recognition of the minimum alternative tax credit of ₹35.38 lakh as an asset. They stated this recognition is not in consonance with the Guidance Note on accounting for credit available in respect of Minimum Alternative Tax under the Income Tax Act, 1961, given the company's overall financial position and history of losses.
What the Numbers Show
The turnaround in consolidated profitability is largely attributable to cost containment rather than top-line growth. While revenue increased modestly by 4.4% quarter-on-quarter, employee benefit expenses dropped by nearly 70%, falling from ₹263.24 lakh to ₹78.15 lakh. This drastic reduction in operating costs allowed the company to move from a pre-tax loss of ₹46.23 lakh to a pre-tax profit of ₹8.23 lakh. However, the increase in other expenses to ₹149.17 lakh warrants monitoring in subsequent quarters to ensure sustainable margin improvement.
