The board also approved ₹48 lakh annual pay for its MD and CFO.

What’s new

  • FY26 revenue surged 204% to ₹3.58 crore, with net profit up 108% to ₹79.57 lakhs.
  • Q4 posted a net loss of ₹9.44 lakhs, wiped out by a one-off ₹10.72 lakh prior-period tax charge.
  • MD Prem Kumar Jain and CFO Atul Jain each get a pay hike to ₹48 lakh per annum, effective April 2026.

Why it matters

The full-year growth story is strong, but the quarterly loss is a technical footnote driven by a tax catch-up, not an operational failure. The pay revision for top management, coming on the back of a profit surge, will be the point of contention at the next shareholder meeting.

What we’re watching

  • Shareholder vote on the MD and CFO's new ₹48 lakh annual packages.
  • Whether the Q1 FY27 earnings sustain the 204% revenue-growth trajectory.
  • Any further prior-period adjustments that could dent future quarterly profits.

The full read

GDL Leasing's FY26 numbers read well at the annual level. Revenue jumped 204% to ₹3.58 crore, and net profit more than doubled to ₹79.57 lakhs on the back of stronger interest and fee income. The quarterly picture, however, is a one-off blemish. Q4 posted a net loss of ₹9.44 lakhs, not because operations faltered, but because the company booked a ₹10.72 lakh prior-period tax adjustment in that period alone. Strip out that charge, and the quarter would have been profitable. The board has simultaneously signed off on a pay hike: MD Prem Kumar Jain and CFO Atul Jain each move to ₹48 lakh per annum from April 2026. The raises need shareholder sign-off. That vote will be the next test of how much the board's performance-based logic for the compensation aligns with investor appetite after a volatile year.
