The infrastructure firm posted a net loss of ₹22.36 crore for the year, a significant shift from the net profit of ₹169.60 crore recorded in FY25, which was largely influenced by exceptional items.
The company’s operational performance showed marked improvement in profitability margins. Consolidated EBITDA surged to ₹106.02 crore in FY26, compared to ₹11.54 crore in FY25. This expansion drove the EBITDA margin up to 39.04% from 4.64% in the preceding year. However, finance costs remained elevated at ₹38.47 crore, down slightly from ₹60.61 crore in FY25, while depreciation stood at ₹54.29 crore.
Financial Performance
The consolidated profit and loss statement highlights the divergence between operational gains and bottom-line results due to tax provisions and exceptional items.
| Metric: | FY26 | FY25 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue: | ₹271.59 crore | ₹248.35 crore | +9.4% |
| EBITDA: | ₹106.02 crore | ₹11.54 crore | +819.5% |
| EBITDA Margin: | 39.04% | 4.64% | +3440 bps |
| Finance Cost: | ₹38.47 crore | ₹60.61 crore | -36.5% |
| Profit Before Tax: | ₹29.81 crore | ₹168.83 crore | -82.3% |
| Net Profit/Loss: | (₹22.36) crore | ₹169.60 crore | -113.2% |
In FY25, the company benefited from an exceptional income of ₹278.42 crore, contributing to the high profit before tax figure. In FY26, exceptional items contributed ₹16.55 crore. The substantial deferred tax provision of ₹52.22 crore in FY26 turned the pre-tax profit into a post-tax loss.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As on March 31, 2026, total assets stood at ₹2,949.61 crore, down from ₹2,999.53 crore in FY25. Total borrowings decreased to ₹988.33 crore (combining non-current and current liabilities), compared to ₹954.84 crore in FY25. Trade receivables increased to ₹2,104.88 crore (non-current plus current), up from ₹1,996.01 crore in FY25, indicating higher outstanding dues from clients.
Cash and cash equivalents declined to ₹11.20 crore from ₹18.44 crore in FY25. Other bank balances saw a significant rise to ₹40.67 crore from ₹0.41 crore, suggesting potential liquidity management adjustments or restricted funds.
What the Numbers Show
The most striking feature of the FY26 results is the divergence between operational profitability and net earnings. While EBITDA margin expanded dramatically to 39.04%, signaling strong core business performance likely driven by project completions or cost efficiencies, the net result was a loss. This disconnect is primarily attributable to a deferred tax provision of ₹52.22 crore, which consumed nearly all of the ₹29.81 crore profit before tax. Investors should note that the prior year’s profit was heavily skewed by a one-time exceptional gain of ₹278.42 crore, making FY26 a more representative period for ongoing operations despite the headline loss.
