Bonus Ratio: 1:1 — 1 bonus equity share of Rs. 10/- each for every 1 share held by public shareholders (except Promoter and Promoter Group)
EGM Date: 06 November 2026
Audit Opinion: Audited standalone results for the quarter and half year ended 30 September 2026, with an unmodified audit opinion

What was shared

The company has shared the outcome of the fourth board meeting of FY 2026-2027, held on Tuesday, 13th October, 2026, as a revised update stated to be on account of a typographical error. It covers the audited standalone financial results for the quarter and half year ended 30th September, 2026, along with other decisions taken by the board.

Audited standalone results (Rs. in lakhs)

Revenue from operations for the quarter ended 30/09/2026: 285.13
Other income for the quarter: 314.50
Profit before tax for the quarter: 441.35
Profit for the period: 337.24 for the quarter and 322.96 for the six months ended 30/09/2026
Basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter: 67.45
The statutory auditors have issued an unmodified opinion on these results.

The auditor's Key Audit Matter

The auditors flagged as a Key Audit Matter — a matter of most significance in the audit — that during the period under review the company received a waiver of an unsecured loan amounting to Rs. 314.50 lakhs from its Managing Director, who had advanced that loan to the company. The company recognised the waived amount as other income in the statement of profit and loss for the period. The auditors considered the matter significant due to the material amount involved, the related-party nature of the transaction and its impact on the reported financial performance, and stated that their opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. This matters for reading the quarter: other income of 314.50 (Rs. in lakhs) sits above revenue from operations of 285.13 (Rs. in lakhs) for the same quarter.

Bonus issue recommended

The board has recommended an issue of bonus equity shares in the proportion of 1:1 — that is 1 (One) bonus equity share of Rs. 10/- each for every 1 (One) fully paid-up equity share held by public shareholders (except Promoter and Promoter Group), as on the record date.
The stated aim is to achieve compliance with the minimum public shareholding requirement mandated under rule 19A of the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Rules, 1957, read with regulation 38 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
This is a recommendation and is subject to approval of the Members of the company.
An Extra-Ordinary General Meeting of the members is being called on Friday, the 06th day of November, 2026, through video conferencing and/or other audio-visual means, to seek shareholders' approval for the bonus issue.

Other board decisions

Appointment of M/S J M Patel & Bros, Chartered Accountants, as Tax Auditor of the company for the Financial Year 2026-27, to conduct the tax audit and furnish the Tax Audit Report in the prescribed form.
Change in Registrar & Transfer Agent from System Support Services to Bigshare Services Private Limited. System Support Services will continue as the company's RTA until data transition, shifting of electronic connectivity and other related procedures are completed, along with receipt of necessary confirmations/approval from NSDL, CDSL and other authority.
Bigshare Services Private Limited appointed as Remote E-Voting Agency, and M/s. Dharti Patel & Associates, Practicing Company Secretaries, appointed as Scrutinizer for conducting the e-voting process for the resolutions proposed at the Extra-Ordinary General Meeting.

What this means for a shareholder

The bonus issue now moves to the members' vote at the Extra-Ordinary General Meeting, and the record date will decide which public shareholders are eligible. Because the bonus is proposed for public shareholders while excluding the Promoter and Promoter Group, the company has tied it to the minimum public shareholding requirement. The audited results come with an unmodified audit opinion, while the loan waiver from the Managing Director is the point the auditors have asked readers to note when viewing the reported profit.
