P&L walk
Standalone revenue declined 5.0% YoY and 14.5% QoQ to ₹12.77 million; raw-material intensity rose to 96.5% of revenue from 32.3% a year earlier, driving gross margin down to 3.5% and EBITDA to -₹5.35 million, while the ₹6.89 million PAT loss remained operational rather than other-income driven.
Key positives
- Cash loss improved to ₹66.68 million from ₹136.83 million in the year-ago quarter, a 51.3% reduction, although it remained substantial.
- Finance cost declined 43.1% YoY to ₹7.62 million and depreciation declined 30.1% YoY to ₹7.43 million.
Key concerns
- Gross margin collapsed to 3.5% from 67.7% in Q1FY26 as raw-material cost rose to 96.5% of revenue from 32.3%; the filing does not disclose the cause, and the company appears to have absorbed the cost pressure.
- Revenue declined 5.0% YoY and 14.5% QoQ to ₹12.77 million, with no volume, pricing, order-book or capacity-utilisation disclosure to establish a recovery path.
- EBITDA was -₹5.35 million and PAT was -₹6.89 million, leaving the business loss-making at both operating and net levels.
