Newtrac Foods & Beverages Limited reported a net loss of ₹636.95 lakh for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, a significant decline from the profit of ₹179.72 lakh recorded in the previous year. Revenue from operations for the year stood at ₹1,632.01 lakh, down from ₹6,407.78 lakh in FY25. The company’s total assets decreased to ₹1,834.66 lakh as of March 31, 2026, from ₹2,740.41 lakh a year earlier.
The Board of Directors approved the audited financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026, during a meeting held on May 30, 2026. The meeting also addressed the resignation of the statutory auditor, NKSC & Co., and the subsequent appointment of M/s Sarang Shivajirao Chavan and Associates as the new statutory auditor effective June 1, 2026. The outgoing auditor cited an inability to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence as the reason for the disclaimer of opinion on the financial statements.
The company’s financial statements revealed that the management had not made available necessary records and supporting documents, including loan agreements and trade confirmations, required for the audit. Consequently, the auditors were unable to verify the state of affairs, loss, and cash flows for the year. The notes to the accounts also highlighted that the company did not have a Company Secretary as of the date of approval, a non-compliance under Section 203 of the Companies Act, 2013, though it was not expected to have a material impact on the results.
