The full read
Saatvik Green Energy's full-year numbers tell two stories. On a consolidated basis, net profit jumped 64% to ₹357 crore, driven by its subsidiary. But at the parent level, profit plunged 60% to ₹62.3 crore despite a 14.6% revenue rise, and Q4 standalone profit cratered 88%. The parent also booked a ₹3.9 crore impairment on the Monoperc cash-generating unit and changed its inventory valuation method—both adding to the noise. The gap raises a hard question: how much of the group's profit is real, and how much is the subsidiary masking weakness at the parent? For now, the consolidated number looks strong, but the standalone decay is the story that needs explaining.
