Dhatre Udyog Limited reported a net loss of ₹182.09 lakh for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, a sharp decline from the net profit of ₹169.77 lakh recorded in the previous year. Revenue from operations fell significantly to ₹912.18 lakh in FY26 from ₹14,429.31 lakh in FY25. The company's board approved the audited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026, during a meeting held on May 29, 2026. The statutory auditor, M/s. P. D. Rungta & Co., issued a qualified opinion on the financial statements, highlighting a material uncertainty related to the company's status as a going concern due to the shutdown of its manufacturing operations.
Financial Performance and Operational Shutdown
The company's total income for FY26 stood at ₹1,141.47 lakh, down from ₹14,459.79 lakh in the previous year. For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the company reported a net profit of ₹7.90 lakh, compared to a net profit of ₹34.43 lakh in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. The financial results indicate that the company has ceased manufacturing operations at its plant in Vizianagaram due to ageing machinery and technology obsolescence. The board decided to dispose of the plant and machinery as scrap and the factory land separately. The company is currently exploring the possibility of venturing into real estate development at its land in Jamshedpur.
Auditor's Qualified Opinion and Going Concern Risk
M/s. P. D. Rungta & Co., the Statutory Auditor, expressed a qualified opinion on the standalone and consolidated financial results. The qualification arises because balances under trade receivables, advances, and trade payables are subject to confirmations and adjustments, the impact of which could not be ascertained in the absence of pending reconciliations. Furthermore, the auditor drew attention to a material uncertainty regarding the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Despite the operational shutdown and disposal of assets, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
