Nirav Commercials Q1 Results: Net profit turns positive to ₹0.11 crore
Nirav Commercials posted a Q1FY26 net profit of ₹0.11 crore, reversing a prior-year loss. The gain was driven by a ₹0.09 crore deferred tax benefit rather than operational growth, with net sales at ₹0.03 crore. Auditors qualified the report due to non-actuarial employee benefit provisions.

What the Numbers Show
The profit turnaround was not driven by operational efficiency but by tax accounting adjustments. While the company generated an operating profit of just ₹0.02 crore, it benefited from a deferred tax credit of ₹0.09 crore. This single item accounted for the entire shift from loss to profit, as the pre-tax profit from ordinary activities remained flat at ₹0.02 crore compared to the previous quarter’s pre-tax profit of ₹0.79 crore (which included exceptional items). Without this tax benefit, the company would have reported a negligible profit, highlighting the non-operational nature of the bottom-line improvement.
Auditor Qualification
Suryaprakash Maurya & Co LLP, the statutory auditors, issued a qualified review report. They noted that the provision for gratuity and leave encashment had not been calculated based on actuarial valuation as required under Ind AS 19 "Employee Benefits." Instead, the company made provisions on an estimated basis, making the consequent impact on profit and loss unascertainable. The auditors stated that except for this observation, the financial statements disclosed the information required under SEBI Listing Regulations.
The company operates in a single business segment: the manufacturing and trading of aluminium products. Earnings per share (basic and diluted) stood at ₹2.76 for the quarter.
