IC Electricals reported negative cash flows from operations across all three years. The consolidated operating cash outflow widened to ₹(11.10) crore in FY26 from ₹(1.47) crore in FY24. Additionally, the company has outstanding borrowings of ₹7,542.45 lakhs as of March 31, 2026, with interest rates ranging from 7.55% to 18.75%.
