Nidhi Granites Q1FY26 net profit up 29% to ₹289.56 lakh as costs fall
Nidhi Granites Ltd delivered a 29% YoY increase in consolidated net profit to ₹289.56 lakh for Q1FY26, despite a 20% decline in revenue to ₹1,583.80 lakh. The profit growth was driven by a 28% fall in total expenses, particularly lower material costs. The standalone entity turned profitable with a net profit of ₹27.11 lakh, reversing a prior-year loss, aided significantly by other income. The financial technology segment remains the primary profit driver for the group.

Nidhi Granites reported a consolidated net profit of ₹289.56 lakh for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, rising 29% from ₹224.03 lakh in the same period of FY25. The company’s total revenue from operations declined 20% year-on-year to ₹1,583.80 lakh from ₹1,981.05 lakh (restated from ₹1,672.95 lakh in earlier filings), driven primarily by a contraction in its construction materials segment.
On a standalone basis, the parent company turned profitable, reporting a net profit of ₹27.11 lakh compared to a loss of ₹33.27 lakh in Q1FY25. This turnaround was largely fueled by other income of ₹19.13 lakh, which significantly offset minimal operating revenues of ₹13.97 lakh and low operating expenses. Standalone income from operations rose to ₹33.10 lakh from ₹7.30 lakh in the previous year quarter.
The Board of Directors approved the unaudited financial results at a meeting held on August 13, 2026. The results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and subjected to a limited review by statutory auditors Jogin Raval & Associates.
Consolidated Financial Performance
The group’s top-line revenue contracted as the construction materials segment saw sales drop to ₹1,062.25 lakh from ₹1,505.37 lakh in the prior year quarter. However, the garments segment contributed ₹507.58 lakh, up from ₹465.52 lakh, providing some offset to the decline.
| Metric | Q1FY26 | Q1FY25 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue from Operations | ₹1,583.80 lakh | ₹1,981.05 lakh | -20% |
| Total Expenses | ₹1,218.10 lakh | ₹1,683.52 lakh | -28% |
| Profit Before Tax | ₹385.46 lakh | ₹304.95 lakh | +26% |
| Net Profit After Tax | ₹289.56 lakh | ₹224.03 lakh | +29% |
Total expenses fell sharply by 28% to ₹1,218.10 lakh, aided by lower cost of materials consumed (₹337.58 lakh vs ₹726.20 lakh) and reduced direct expenses. Earnings per share (basic and diluted) stood at ₹3.62, up from ₹2.80 in the previous year.
What the Numbers Show
The financial data reveals a distinct divergence between the parent company and its subsidiaries. While the standalone Nidhi Granites generated negligible operating revenue (₹13.97 lakh), it recorded a profit due to non-operating income. In contrast, the consolidated profit is driven entirely by subsidiaries, particularly in the Financial Technology and related services segment, which reported a segment result before tax of ₹262.97 lakh—accounting for approximately 71% of the total pre-tax segment results of ₹368.97 lakh. This highlights a heavy dependency on the fintech subsidiary for the group’s profitability, despite the absence of direct revenue recognition at the consolidated level for this specific segment line item in the primary income statement view.
