Atishay's Q1 net profit drops to ₹11.94 lakhs from ₹164.90 lakhs
Revenue rises 11% to ₹13.52 crore, but operating and employee expenses erase margins; new company secretary appointed.
— 2 earlier stories on Atishay Ltd. →What's new
- Q1 net profit drops to ₹11.94 lakhs from ₹164.90 lakhs in Q1FY26
- Revenue up 11% to ₹13.52 crore but costs outpace growth
- Chunky Lalwani appointed company secretary and compliance officer
Why this matters
The margin compression is severe. Net profit fell by over 90% despite an 11% revenue increase, signalling that cost control is broken. With a market cap of ₹226 crore and trailing P/E of 31.7, any earnings miss hits valuations hard. The West Bengal health card order from June may help Q2, but Q1 shows no benefit yet.
What we're watching
- Whether Q2 shows impact of the ₹11.16 cr health card order
- Cost control measures – employee expenses are the main drag
- Any guidance from management on margin recovery
The full read
Atishay's Q1FY27 numbers tell a story of top-line growth failing to translate into profit. Revenue inched up 11% to ₹13.52 crore, but net profit collapsed to ₹11.94 lakhs from ₹164.90 lakhs a year earlier. Operating and employee expenses are the culprits. The company had bagged an ₹11.16 crore order for health cards in June 2026 – too late to show in Q1. With a market cap of ₹226 crore and a trailing P/E of 31.7, the market was already pricing in modest growth. This quarter resets expectations. The appointment of a new company secretary is procedural. The focus must now be on Q2: whether the order pipeline and cost discipline can restore margins.
