₹156.68 million Reduction in depreciation expense due to a change in accounting method.

What's new

  • FY26 revenue reached ₹5,186 million, a 7% increase.
  • Net profit climbed 22% to ₹388 million.
  • A change in depreciation method lowered expenses by ₹156.68 million.

Why this matters

The profit growth is flattered by a change in accounting estimates rather than purely operational gains. Investors should strip out the ₹156.68 million depreciation benefit to see the underlying earnings trend.

What we're watching

  • Whether the new depreciation method aligns with industry standards.
  • Operational margin trends excluding the accounting adjustment.
  • Future capital allocation plans following the cancelled investment.

The full read

Scoda Tubes reported ₹5,186 million in revenue for FY26, a 7% increase. Net profit rose 22% to ₹388 million. However, these results include a change in depreciation method that reduced expenses by ₹156.68 million, providing a significant one-time boost to the bottom line. The company also confirmed the cancellation of its previously proposed EUR 7,000 investment in Arvind sp.z.o.o., which was already known to the market. While the headline growth figures appear healthy, the accounting adjustment complicates the comparison to prior periods. The audit opinion remains unmodified. For a micro-cap entity, these results represent moderate growth, though the accounting change warrants caution when evaluating the quality of the earnings increase.
