The full read

Tega's FY26 results put a number on the cost of its biggest bet. Consolidated profit fell 29% to ₹142.6 crore, even as revenue inched up 3% to ₹1,691.9 crore. The gap is the Molycop acquisition. Higher finance costs and deal-related expenses swallowed the top-line gain. The standalone business, which excludes the acquired entity, saw revenue shrink 16%. Management held the dividend flat at ₹2 per share. The results change little. They confirm the expected financial drag from the deal. The next test is whether Molycop's returns outweigh these costs.
