Modulex Construction reported a standalone net profit of ₹40.62 lakhs for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, marking a reversal from the ₹32.37 lakh loss posted in the corresponding period of FY25. The turnaround was primarily driven by a reduction in other expenses, which fell to ₹13.56 lakhs from ₹44.87 lakhs year-on-year, while other income rose to ₹93.30 lakhs from ₹41.50 lakhs. However, the consolidated group continued to face operational headwinds, reporting a net loss of ₹480.22 lakhs for the quarter, widening from the ₹418.13 lakh loss in Q1FY25.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results on August 5, 2026, pursuant to Regulation 30 and Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The meeting also addressed a statement on deviation or variation for proceeds of a preferential issue, confirming no deviation in the utilization of funds raised. Statutory auditors Dhadda & Associates provided a limited review report with an emphasis of matter regarding material uncertainties related to the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The consolidated loss was significantly impacted by employee benefits expense of ₹205.25 lakhs and depreciation charges of ₹180.57 lakhs. Finance costs stood at ₹38.00 lakhs. The company operates in a single business segment, civil construction, and has not generated operating revenue from operations in the current quarter. The holding company’s investment in its subsidiary, Modulex Modular Buildings Private Limited (MMBPL), remains unimpaired based on an independent valuation conducted as of March 31, 2026, which indicated that the fair value covers the carrying amount.

Auditor Concerns and Compliance Issues

Dhadda & Associates highlighted several critical issues in their review report. The auditors noted that MMBPL has faced significant delays in implementing its Pune project, leading to accumulated negative retained earnings of ₹813.33 lakhs as of June 30, 2026. This situation casts significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, although management asserts that promoter support and the completion of Phase-I construction activities mitigate this risk.

Furthermore, the auditors pointed out unpaid tax liabilities. Modulex Construction Technologies Limited has outstanding Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) liabilities of ₹30.22 lakhs, including ₹8.05 lakhs in interest provisions. Additionally, Goods and Services Tax (GST) under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) amounting to ₹28.86 lakhs, along with ₹5.42 lakhs in interest provisions, remains unpaid. The subsidiary, MMBPL, also has undisclosed TDS liabilities of ₹198.38 lakhs and RCM GST dues of ₹6.44 lakhs. The company is seeking legal opinions to resolve these matters.

Capital Raise and Warrant Forfeiture

During the quarter, the company received ₹1,525.96 lakhs towards final call money for convertible warrants issued earlier. The Board allotted 3,38,95,810 equity shares of ₹10 each at a premium of ₹8 per share. However, three warrant holders failed to pay the outstanding final call money within the stipulated period. Consequently, these warrants are liable to be forfeited, and the aggregate amount of ₹147.81 lakhs received against them is liable to be transferred to Capital Reserve. The company is currently in the process of obtaining board approval for this forfeiture.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between the standalone profit and consolidated loss underscores the heavy cost burden associated with the subsidiary’s ongoing project delays. While the holding company managed to reduce its own operational expenses, the consolidated figures reveal that employee costs and depreciation—likely tied to the Pune facility—continue to erode value. The absence of operating revenue indicates that commercial production has not yet commenced, despite the completion of Phase-I internal construction. Investors should monitor the resolution of tax liabilities and the timeline for commercial operations, as these factors directly impact the sustainability of the going concern assumption.
