The company reported a steady performance, though overall profitability saw a decline compared to the previous financial year due to higher operational expenses.
Annual Financial Performance (FY26 vs. FY25)

Total Expenses: Increased to ₹2,667.84 Lakhs, up from ₹2,219.34 Lakhs in the previous year. This was primarily driven by a significant jump in "Other Expenses," which reached ₹634.91 Lakhs.

The fourth quarter was characterized by a shift in income composition, with "Other Income" making up the entirety of the quarterly total.
Quarterly Income: Total income for Q4 FY26 was ₹464.36 Lakhs, all of which was derived from "Other Income," as there was no revenue from operations recorded during the quarter.

Sequential Trends: Profitability declined from ₹325.24 Lakhs in the December 2025 quarter to ₹116.31 Lakhs in March 2026, largely due to a sharp increase in quarterly other expenses (₹296.53 Lakhs).
