Total income for Q2 FY27 reached INR 27.73 crore, supported by INR 0.47 crore in other income despite a contraction in non-operating inflows from the previous quarter's elevated level of INR 0.77 crore.
The company swung back to profitability at the bottom line, registering a profit after tax (PAT) and profit before tax (PBT) of INR 0.58 crore, compared to a net loss of INR 0.64 crore in Q1 FY27.
Basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) recovered to INR 0.56 for the quarter, rebounding from a negative EPS of INR 0.63 in the June 2026 quarter.
The sequential recovery in operating profitability was achieved even as cost of materials consumed increased to INR 14.48 crore and power and fuel expenses stood at INR 2.05 crore.
The company maintained tight control over other fixed operational expenses, helping gross margin expansion and neutralizing sequential cost headwinds from employee benefits and financing.

Financial interpretation
What the reported numbers mean
Profit after tax represented 2.1% 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 2.1% 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 ₹0.47 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.
