The full read

Laxmipati Engineering Works reported a net profit of ₹27.0 crore for FY26, up from ₹6.5 crore in the previous year. Revenue grew 44% to ₹72.0 crore. The profit figure includes a ₹23.7 crore gain from a fixed asset sale. Excluding this item, operating profit reached ₹9.1 crore, more than double the prior year.

Debt plummeted.

The company used the proceeds from the asset sale to reduce long-term debt from ₹39.6 crore to ₹7.7 crore, which brought the debt-equity ratio to 0.47x from 5.26x in FY25. Net worth also rose from ₹857 lakhs to ₹3,561 lakhs. By using a non-core asset sale to restructure its balance sheet, the firm has cleared a significant hurdle, but the next test is whether the core business can maintain this operating profit growth without relying on further asset sales.
