Dhanvantri Jeevan Rekha Limited reported a 14.17% rise in operating income for FY26, but net profit fell 23% year-on-year as higher costs offset top-line growth. The healthcare provider will convene its 33rd Annual General Meeting on Tuesday, September 29, 2026.

The company’s standalone financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, show continued expansion in hospital services despite margin compression. Profit after tax stood at ₹39.07 lakh compared to ₹50.61 lakh in FY25.

Financial Performance

Operating income increased to ₹258.58 crore from ₹226.50 crore in the previous year. However, other income declined from ₹41.40 lakh to ₹32.93 lakh. Total expenses rose sharply to ₹257.88 crore from ₹225.08 crore, driven by higher professional fees to doctors and medical consumables costs.

Earnings per share (basic) dropped to ₹0.94 from ₹1.60 in FY25. The company remained debt-free during the period, with no long-term borrowings secured.

What the Numbers Show

While revenue growth indicates strong patient inflow or service utilization, the divergence between top-line growth and bottom-line contraction highlights cost pressures. Professional fees to doctors rose 10.8% to ₹80.87 crore, and employee benefit expenses increased 10.4% to ₹52.98 crore. These operational costs outpaced revenue growth, compressing the net profit ratio from 2.90% in FY25 to 1.49% in FY26.

Director Reappointments

The Board recommends the reappointment of Mr. Tulsi Prasad Sharma and Mrs. Rowena Sharma, both retiring by rotation. They are eligible under the Companies Act, 2013.

Mr. Sharma has experience in administrative support, while Mrs. Sharma holds a B.Com degree. Neither director nor their relatives have financial interests in the resolutions beyond their shareholdings.
