RTCL Limited reported a standalone net profit of ₹17.96 lakh for the first quarter of FY27, an increase from ₹12.41 lakh in the corresponding period of FY26. The company’s consolidated net profit rose to ₹21.16 lakh from ₹12.49 lakh in the previous year’s quarter. The improvement in profitability was primarily driven by higher other income, which stood at ₹45.46 lakh, offsetting a decline in operational revenue from its real estate development segment.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, during a meeting held on August 11, 2026. The results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and accompanied by a limited review report from statutory auditors V V G & Co. The filing was made pursuant to Regulation 30 and Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

Financial Performance

Revenue from operations for the standalone entity was nil for the current quarter, compared to nil in the prior quarter and ₹104.88 lakh in Q1FY25. However, total income reached ₹45.46 lakh, largely due to other income. Total expenses decreased to ₹22.01 lakh from ₹27.20 lakh in the preceding quarter. Profit before tax stood at ₹23.45 lakh, down from ₹24.50 lakh in the previous quarter but significantly higher than the ₹123.04 lakh reported in Q1FY25, which included substantial operational revenue.

Earnings per share (EPS) for continuing operations were ₹0.15 basic and diluted for the standalone results, compared to ₹0.10 in the previous quarter. Consolidated EPS stood at ₹0.18 basic.

Segment Analysis

The company operates in multiple segments, with Real Estate Development being the primary reporting segment. Standalone segment revenue from real estate development was ₹15.20 lakh, a slight increase from ₹15.06 lakh in the previous quarter but a sharp decline from ₹119.94 lakh in Q1FY25. The segment reported a loss of ₹2.03 lakh, improving from a loss of ₹7.49 lakh in the prior quarter and contrasting with a profit of ₹98.91 lakh in Q1FY25.

Interest income contributed significantly to the bottom line, totaling ₹30.27 lakh in the standalone statement. Capital employed in the real estate segment remained stable at ₹440.32 lakh. The consolidated capital employed increased to ₹4,533.27 lakh from ₹4,512.11 lakh in the previous quarter.

Auditor Observations

Statutory auditors V V G & Co noted a departure from Ind AS 109 "Financial Instruments." The company recognized non-current investments in equity shares at cost rather than fair value through profit and loss or other comprehensive income. Consequently, the impact on deferred tax and other comprehensive income could not be ascertained. The auditors also highlighted that two associates, Raghunath Builders Private Limited and P.J. Software Private Limited, were included in the consolidated results based on management-furnished data, as their interim statements were not audited. These associates contributed ₹3.20 lakh to the consolidated profit.

RTCL Ltd has closed its trading window for designated persons and their immediate relatives effective July 1, 2026, to prevent potential insider trading ahead of its quarterly financial announcement. The restriction will remain in force until the expiry of 48 hours after the company announces its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, to the stock exchanges.

The closure of the trading window is a standard regulatory compliance measure implemented ahead of the declaration of financial results. This ensures that no insider trades occur while sensitive financial information is unpublished. The company stated that the specific date for the Board of Directors' meeting to approve the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, will be communicated separately in due course.

Trading Window Schedule

The communication was addressed to the Bombay Stock Exchange Limited, where the company is listed with Scrip Code 531552. The intimation was signed by Ajay Kumar Jain, Whole Time Director and Authorized Signatory, on behalf of RTCL Ltd (formerly known as Ragunath Tobacco Company Limited).
