- Net profit was flat at ₹3.46 crore despite the revenue increase.
- Auditors issued an unmodified opinion on the annual results.
Why this matters
For a company with a ₹36 crore market capitalisation, the entire point of revenue growth is to generate more profit. Here, it didn't. Rising costs or financing charges fully offset the top-line gain, meaning the business scaled without becoming more profitable.

The full read
Mittal Sections grew revenue by 8.5% to ₹148.58 crore in FY26. Profit did not follow. It was flat at ₹3.46 crore. That gap is the story. A company with a ₹36 crore market cap added sales and kept none of it as extra profit. The auditors signed off without qualification. The open question is what exactly ate the gain. For a nano-cap, that margin squeeze matters more than the topline growth.
