stel holdings reported a standalone net loss of ₹12.95 lakh for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026, widening significantly from the net profit of ₹35.15 lakh recorded in Q1FY26. The core investment company saw its revenue from operations plummet to ₹9.79 lakh, an 86% decline from ₹70.74 lakh in the prior year’s corresponding period.

The results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and subjected to a limited review by the statutory auditors, G.

The consolidated net loss stood at ₹13.06 lakh, slightly higher than the standalone figure.
