The full read
Allied Digital's FY26 results show a company splitting in two. Consolidated revenue rose ~20% to ₹967.9 crore. Solid. But the standalone business, which accounts for roughly 40% of that total, saw revenue stuck at ₹387.8 crore and booked a net loss of ₹0.81 crore. The loss came from impairment provisions and asset reconciliation, not operational collapse. Still, it marks a slide into the red for the parent company's own books. The auditor's repeated qualification on interest-free loans to subsidiaries remains unresolved. The dividend held steady at ₹1.50 per share. The subsidiaries are carrying the growth. The standalone entity needs a fix.
