The full read
Jyoti CNC Automation posted consolidated revenue of ₹2,093.13 crore for the year ended March 31, 2026, a 15% increase. Net profits grew 6% to ₹336 crore. While the standalone Indian business remains the primary driver of earnings, the consolidated results are overshadowed by a French judicial investigation into the group's subsidiary, Huron Graffenstaden SAS. The probe involves alleged export control violations and has already resulted in the seizure of €3.02 million in assets. Auditors issued an unmodified opinion but added an emphasis of matter regarding the legal proceedings and management's refusal to book an impairment charge for the subsidiary. Management claims a recovery is coming. For now, the results present a clear contrast between the growth of the core business and the persistent regulatory risks in Europe. The open question is how long the group can absorb the losses from its French operations before the investment requires a formal write-down.
