Premier Capital's Q1 profit driven by other income, not operations
Net profit of ₹24.71 lakh reverses year-ago loss of ₹16.77 lakh, but revenue remains modest at ₹15.44 lakh; other income more than double that figure.
— 2 earlier stories on Premier Capital Services Ltd. →What's new
- Premier Capital swung to a net profit of ₹24.71 lakh in Q1 FY27 from a loss of ₹16.77 lakh a year ago.
- Other income of ₹31.36 lakh accounted for the entire profit, while revenue from operations was just ₹15.44 lakh.
- Board reappointed Nitin Arvind Oza as internal auditor and fixed the AGM for 16 September.
Why this matters
The profit swing looks good on paper, but it is entirely from other income which has been volatile. With trailing revenue declining 34%, the core business continues to contract. The market cap of ₹18 cr and high P/E leave no margin for error.
What we're watching
- Whether revenue from operations can stabilise or grow.

The full read
Premier Capital Services swung to a net profit of ₹24.71 lakh in Q1 FY27 from a loss of ₹16.77 lakh a year ago. Good news? Look closer. Revenue from operations was just ₹15.44 lakh, barely half the other income of ₹31.36 lakh that drove the entire profit. The core NBFC lending business continues to shrink with trailing revenue down 34%. This is the second straight quarter where other income has masked a weak operating story; in the prior quarter, a profit of ₹36.83 lakh similarly came from a one-off. The board also reappointed Nitin Arvind Oza as internal auditor and scheduled the AGM for 16 September. Routine administrative stuff. For a stock with a market cap of ₹18 cr and a P/E north of 70, every rupee of core revenue matters. So far, that stream is still drying up.

- What is the company's revenue from operations?
- ₹15.44 lakh in Q1 FY27, while other income was ₹31.36 lakh, more than double revenues.

- What is the company's market cap and valuation?
