Filtra Consultants reported a 27.9% year-on-year increase in net profit after tax (PAT) to ₹3.73 crore for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, supported by robust revenue growth and operational efficiency.

The water treatment solutions provider saw its total income rise 12.4% to ₹981.2 crore, up from ₹873.0 crore in the previous fiscal. The company declared a final dividend of ₹2 per equity share, subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming annual general meeting.

Financial Performance

Revenue from operations grew to ₹976.8 crore from ₹869.3 crore in FY25. The improvement in the bottom line was aided by better cost management, with total expenses rising at a slower pace than income.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between revenue growth and profit expansion highlights improved operational leverage. While revenue grew by 12.4%, net profit surged by nearly 28%, indicating that fixed costs were spread over a larger sales base. Additionally, other income contributed ₹44.7 lakh to the total income, reflecting gains from investment profits and interest receipts.
