The full read
Lorenzini Apparels ended the year with a strong final quarter, posting ₹25.76 crore in revenue—an 85% increase over the same period last year. The company swung to a ₹0.87 crore profit, a clear reversal from the ₹6.57 crore loss reported in Q4 FY25. Despite the late-year surge, the full-year picture is more strained. Total income rose 11%, yet net profit fell to ₹4.35 crore from ₹5.84 crore in the prior year. This divergence confirms that margin pressures persisted throughout the year, offsetting the gains made in the final three months. With a market cap of ₹118 crore, the company now faces the challenge of proving that its Q4 performance is a sustainable shift rather than a seasonal outlier.
