      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>The highway construction business drove a revenue surge, but the net profit drop reflects fading exceptional gains from the prior year.</em></p>
<h3>What’s new</h3><ul><li>FY26 audited results show revenue grew to ₹80.88 cr from ₹9.49 cr in FY25.</li><li>Net profit fell to ₹9.83 cr from ₹69.27 cr, mainly because last year had large exceptional gains.</li><li>Profit before exceptional items turned around to a gain of ₹4.78 cr, up from a loss last year.</li></ul>
<h3>Why it matters</h3><p>The revenue story is straightforward: a full year of highway construction replaced a sliver of textile trading. The profit story is about comparability. The prior year's ₹69.27 cr profit was inflated by one-time gains; this year's core operational result, while positive at ₹4.78 cr, is what the business actually earns. The transformation is real, but it's not new.</p>
<h3>What we’re watching</h3><ul><li>The pace of new project wins for the construction business.</li><li>Whether core operating profit grows in FY27.</li><li>Any further moves away from the textile trading legacy.</li></ul>
<h3>The full read</h3><p>Soma Textiles is now a highway construction company. That's the story in these <strong>FY26</strong> numbers. Revenue jumped from <strong>₹9.49 cr</strong> to <strong>₹80.88 cr</strong> as the new business operated for a full year. But the net profit headline is misleading. It dropped from <strong>₹69.27 cr</strong> to <strong>₹9.83 cr</strong> because the prior year was bloated by exceptional gains. Strip those out, and the underlying profit before exceptional items swung from a loss to a gain of <strong>₹4.78 cr</strong>. That's the real operational trajectory. The transformation from textiles to infrastructure was already visible in the quarterly disclosures, so these annual numbers confirm what the market had seen. The question now is whether the construction order book can sustain and grow this base.</p>
