Profitability
The company's profit before tax (PBT) for Q3FY26 stood at ₹4.31 crores, showing a slight decrease of 1.4% from the ₹4.37 crores reported in Q2FY26. However, this reflects a YoY increase of 2.4% compared to the PBT of ₹4.21 crores in Q3FY25. The tax expense for the quarter was ₹1.29 crores, contrasting significantly with the tax credits reported in previous periods, which were negative in both Q2FY26 and Q3FY25. The profit after tax (PAT) for Q3FY26 was a loss of ₹23.89 crores, an improvement from a loss of ₹25.96 crores in Q2FY26 and a substantial improvement from a loss of ₹88.98 crores in Q3FY25.

However, despite the reduction in expenses, the company continues to face challenges in achieving profitability, as indicated by the negative PAT and EPS metrics. The operating performance, therefore, suggests a focus on cost management while navigating the pressures on revenue and profitability.
