Topline
- Revenue from operations grew 19.9% YoY (₹80,707L → ₹96,791L), driven predominantly by the Services segment (₹61,800L → ₹75,614L, +22.3% YoY).
- Q4FY26 revenue hit ₹26,777L, up 31.0% YoY vs Q4FY25’s ₹20,435L — strongest quarterly print of the year.
- Solutions segment contributed ₹21,177L in FY26 vs ₹18,907L in FY25 (+12.0% YoY), growing but at a slower pace than Services.
Bottomline
- PAT rose 10.2% YoY (₹3,226L → ₹3,553L) on a consolidated basis, but Q4FY26 turned loss-making at ₹(339)L vs ₹(746)L loss in Q4FY25 — a sequential reversal after a profitable Q3FY26 (₹1,391L).
- PBT fell 28.3% YoY (₹6,077L → ₹4,358L) despite higher revenue, signaling significant cost escalation outpacing topline growth.
- Deferred tax credit of ₹2,117L in FY26 (vs ₹549L charge in FY25) materially supported reported PAT; underlying operational profitability deteriorated.
Margins
- Segment EBIT (Services + Solutions combined) expanded to ₹28,112L vs ₹23,215L (+21.1% YoY), but unallocated expenses surged to ₹22,444L from ₹16,440L (+36.5% YoY), eroding PBT entirely.
- Net profit margin compressed to 3.7% in FY26 vs 4.0% in FY25 (PAT/Revenue from operations).
- Q4FY26 shows total expenses of ₹28,641L against revenue of ₹26,777L — a negative operating quarter, driven by a spike in purchases & other direct expenses (₹17,229L vs ₹8,278L in Q4FY25) and other expenses (₹5,935L vs ₹7,551L).
Growth Trajectory
- Three-year revenue trajectory is directionally positive, but PBT declining 28.3% YoY on 19.9% revenue growth signals a profitability ceiling forming at current cost structures.
- Unallocated expenses growing at 36.5% vs revenue at 19.9% is unsustainable; if this gap persists, FY27 PBT will likely compress further.
- Services segment EBIT margin: ₹24,942L on ₹75,614L revenue = 33.0% in FY26 vs ₹20,386L on ₹61,800L = 33.0% in FY25 — flat, indicating no operating leverage despite scale.
