₹2,110.09 lakhs Consolidated net loss for FY26, up from ₹1,067.22 lakhs in FY25.

What's new

  • Standalone net profit fell 84% to ₹22.97 lakhs for FY26.
  • Consolidated net loss widened to ₹2,110.09 lakhs from ₹1,067.22 lakhs.
  • Losses from associate Sab Udyog Limited drove the consolidated result.

Why this matters

SAB's core operations are barely profitable. The consolidated loss is now double the standalone profit, with the deficit entirely attributable to its associate. For a ₹241 crore market cap company, the associate's losses are a material drag that dwarfs the parent's earnings.

What we're watching

  • Whether management provides detail on Sab Udyog's loss trajectory.
  • Any move to restructure or divest the loss-making associate.
  • The impact on SAB's balance sheet and cash flow from supporting the associate.

The full read

SAB Industries' standalone profit was already thin. It fell 84% to just ₹22.97 lakhs in FY26. Consolidated, the picture is stark. The group posted a net loss of ₹2,110.09 lakhs, up from ₹1,067.22 lakhs last year. The entire consolidated loss traces back to its associate, Sab Udyog Limited. The filing offers no detail on the associate's spiralling losses. For a ₹241 crore market cap company, the deficit is substantial. The core business is negligible. The associate is the whole story. Auditors signed off cleanly, and the board appointed a new internal auditor.
