The full read
Quadrant Future Tek ended FY2026 with a net loss of ₹55.7 crore, more than doubling the ₹26.2 crore loss recorded in the previous year. Revenue remained stagnant at ₹152.9 crore. The primary drag on performance is the Train Collision Avoidance System division, which posted a segment loss of ₹60.2 crore. This was partially offset by the cable division, which contributed a profit of ₹12.4 crore. Auditors Sanmarks & Associates flagged a cash loss of ₹31 crore for the year, a significant shift from the prior year when the company reported no cash erosion. Despite these deepening losses and the cash burn, the company maintains it can continue as a going concern. For a firm with a market cap of ₹1,216 crore, the inability to grow revenue while losses accelerate in its core technology segment is a clear warning sign.
