The full read
ADC India Communications closed FY26 with revenue of ₹20,066.36 lakhs, up 7%, but net profit fell 25% to ₹1,832.70 lakhs, a margin squeeze that was already telegraphed in earlier unaudited numbers. The board maintained a ₹25 per share dividend, matching the prior year. The results carry an unmodified audit opinion, so the weakness is operational, not accounting. Routine administrative changes — the retirement of R. Ganesh and appointment of Geetha Desikachari as Company Secretary — round out the filing. For investors, the open question is whether the profit pressure is cyclical or structural; today's filing offers no new signal either way.
