The full read
Brijlaxmi Leasing & Finance reported FY26 revenue of ₹283.56 lakh and net profit of ₹66.17 lakh, down from ₹634.40 lakh and ₹158.29 lakh a year ago. Statutory auditor Maheshwari & Co. repeated its qualified opinion on loan confirmations, Ind AS 19 compliance, and interest income verification. The company said it will address the observations. With a market cap of ₹6 crore and debt-equity of 2.21, the filing is routine—no new material surprises for a company already in a steep decline. The large-corporate confirmation is a non-event.
Questions answered
