Financial Performance

Standalone revenue from operations increased significantly to ₹169.27 lakh in Q1FY26 compared to ₹51.98 lakh in Q1FY25.

Total expenses were ₹145.88 lakh, including cost of materials consumed and operating expenses of ₹97.17 lakh. Employee benefit expenses rose to ₹29.14 lakh from ₹24.10 lakh in the previous year quarter.

Profit before tax was ₹33.43 lakh, compared to a loss before tax of ₹35.42 lakh in Q1FY25. Tax expense was ₹3.99 lakh, primarily due to deferred tax charges. Consolidated results mirrored the standalone figures, with consolidated revenue from operations at ₹169.27 lakh and net profit attributable to owners at ₹29.44 lakh. Deep Energy LLC, USA, the only subsidiary included in consolidation, reported nil revenue and nil net profit for the quarter.

Capital Raise and Director Re-appointments

The Board approved raising funds through one or more Qualified Institutional Placements (QIPs) of equity shares with a face value of ₹1 each, for an aggregate amount not exceeding ₹150 crore. This includes any permitted discount or premium to market price. The issuance is subject to regulatory approvals and shareholder consent at the ensuing Annual General Meeting (AGM). The proposal aligns with Chapter VI of the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018, and Section 42 of the Companies Act, 2013.

Prem Singh Sawhney was reappointed as Executive Director for three years, effective February 20, 2027, to February 19, 2030. Sawhney holds a B.Tech in Chemical Engineering from NIT Warangal and an M.Tech from IIT Mumbai, with over 42 years of experience in hydrocarbon exploration and production.

Dedhia is a qualified Company Secretary with over 17 years of experience in legal and secretarial matters.

What the Numbers Show

The significant rise in revenue from operations—from ₹51.98 lakh to ₹169.27 lakh—drives the return to profitability. However, total expenses also increased sharply to ₹145.88 lakh from ₹97.50 lakh, indicating higher operational activity alongside revenue growth. The capitalization of expenditure on wells in the NK block under Ind AS 106, while recognizing sales during the testing phase as revenue, reflects the early-stage production dynamics impacting current period margins.

Prabha Energy Limited has called for a Second and Final Call payment of ₹47.52 per share on its partly paid-up equity shares. The amount comprises ₹0.33 towards paid-up value and ₹47.19 towards premium, representing 33% of the issue price of ₹144.00 per Rights Equity Share. This follows the Rights Issue Committee's approval of a record date of July 09, 2026, to determine eligible shareholders.

The payment window is open from Tuesday, July 28, 2026, to Tuesday, August 11, 2026.
