|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue from Operations | 2299.47 | 749.71 | -68.0% |
| Other Income | 12.75 | 0.00 | New |

Revenue from operations in Q1FY27 was ₹2299.5 lakh, compared to ₹749.7 lakh in Q1FY25. However, total expenses rose to ₹2319.5 lakh from ₹709.3 lakh in the prior year period. Key expense drivers included purchases of stock-in-trade at ₹1172.0 lakh and changes in inventories amounting to ₹1116.3 lakh. Depreciation and amortisation expenses were ₹16.7 lakh, while employee benefits cost ₹1.2 lakh.
What the Numbers Show
The shift from profit to loss was driven by a significant increase in inventory-related costs despite lower operational revenue. Changes in inventories of finished goods, work-in-progress, and stock-in-trade accounted for ₹1116.3 lakh of the total expenses in Q1FY27, whereas this figure was zero in Q1FY25. This suggests a buildup in inventory levels that has not yet translated into sales revenue, impacting the bottom line. Meanwhile, other income contributed ₹12.8 lakh in the current quarter, compared to nil in the previous year.
The company’s paid-up equity share capital remains at ₹4283.4 lakh. Basic earnings per share were flat at ₹0.00, compared to ₹0.06 in Q1FY25. The trading window for insiders remains closed until 48 hours after the public release of these results.
