What’s new

• Q4 net loss of ₹470.39 lakhs reverses the ₹235.30 lakh profit from the prior quarter and is wider than the ₹60 lakh loss a year ago.
• Auditors flagged the company for not registering as an NBFC with the RBI despite meeting the qualifying criteria.
• ₹587.37 lakhs in advances are stuck pending conversion to shares in target companies.

Why it matters

For a company with just ₹34 lakhs in annual revenue, a ₹470 lakh quarterly loss is severe. The audit qualifications about NBFC non-compliance and stuck advances are not procedural notes; they point to fundamental operational and regulatory gaps that a company this size cannot easily fix.

What we’re watching

• Whether Khoobsurat secures the mandatory RBI NBFC registration or faces enforcement action.
• The resolution path for ₹587.37 lakhs in outstanding share-acquisition advances.
• Consolidation of Salcete Brewing Ltd's results from April 1, 2026 onward.

The full read

Khoobsurat swung to a ₹470.39 lakh net loss in Q4 FY26, wiping out the ₹235.30 lakh profit from the previous quarter. The full-year loss did narrow to ₹46.80 lakhs from ₹222.32 lakhs, but that improvement is built on three quarters before a disastrous final three months. The bigger problem isn't the quarterly number. It's the auditor's report. Khoobsurat never registered as an NBFC with the RBI despite meeting the qualifying criteria, a basic regulatory requirement. On top of that, ₹587.37 lakhs in advances meant for share acquisitions remain stuck and unconverted. For a nano-cap with ₹34 lakhs in annual revenue and a ₹26 crore market cap, these are material uncertainties about whether the company is even operating within the rules.
