Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Chavda Infra Limited reported standalone revenue from operations of INR 84.03 crore for the quarter ended 30 June 2026, alongside total income of INR 84.12 crore inclusive of INR 0.09 crore in other income.
Profit before tax for the June 2026 quarter settled at INR 5.15 crore, while profit after tax reached INR 3.88 crore after accounting for a total tax expense of INR 1.27 crore.
Basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter stood at INR 1.19, calculated on a weighted average number of equity shares numbering 3,26,56,000 units.
Operating performance during Q1 FY27 was influenced by a change in accounting estimate regarding depreciation; the company transitioned its depreciation method for property, plant, and equipment from the Written Down Value method to the Straight-Line Method effective 1 January 2026.
This technical alteration in depreciation methodology reduced depreciation expense and correspondingly increased profit before tax by INR 3.67 crore during the June 2026 quarter.
Construction expenses constituted the largest cost component at INR 64.41 crore, while employee benefits expenses were recorded at INR 6.05 crore and finance costs stood at INR 3.53 crore.
The company operated entirely within a single business segment and domestic geographical territory during the period under review, resulting in zero reported segment or geographic breakdowns.
01 · Business model
What does Chavda Infra do?
Chavda Infra Limited operates as an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) and civil construction contractor, executing projects primarily across residential, commercial, and institutional sectors.
The company functions as a standalone entity without subsidiaries, associates, or joint ventures, and concentrates its operations entirely within India.
Its primary revenue model involves construction contracts where project execution scale, raw material consumption, and subcontractor deployment determine top-line inflow and operating expenses.
As an SME-listed entity operating under Chapter XB of SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, the company prepares its financial statements in accordance with Indian GAAP rather than Ind-AS.
02 · Historical context
What shaped the business before this quarter
Previously, the company charged depreciation on property, plant, and equipment using the Written Down Value method from 1 April 2025 until 31 December 2025, before transitioning to the Straight-Line Method on 1 January 2026.
During financial year 2024-25, the Income Tax Department conducted a search and seizure operation under Section 132 of the Income-tax Act in November 2024 across the company's registered office, plants, sites, and residential premises of certain employees.
In March 2026, the company received assessment orders for seven assessment years spanning AY 2019-20 to AY 2025-26, involving additions toward alleged unaccounted construction receipts aggregating INR 19.82 crore and resulting in tax demands aggregating INR 16.94 crore for AY 2022-23 through AY 2025-26.

Financial interpretation
What the reported numbers mean
Profit after tax represented 4.6% of reported quarterly operating revenue. This is a calculated net-profit-to-sales ratio, not a company-reported operating margin. It measures the outcome after expenses and tax; it does not, by itself, establish how margins changed versus another period.
Profit before tax was equivalent to 6.1% of quarterly operating revenue. The distinction between pre-tax and post-tax profit matters when interpreting earnings; neither ratio identifies an underlying cost driver without a properly matched comparative period.
Total income exceeded operating revenue by ₹0.09 crore. This is the disclosed difference between the two lines, not incremental sales. The distinction matters when assessing how much of the quarter’s reported income came from the operating top line.
Ratios above are calculated from the reported quarterly figures. They are analytical descriptions, not company-reported margin guidance or an investment recommendation.
