Magnum Ventures Q3 Net Profit Plummets 96% YoY to ₹0.26 Cr Amid Auditor Concerns

🔴 NEGATIVE ⭐ 8/10

EARNINGS 📅 14 Feb 2026, 03:48 PM

Magnum Ventures reported a weak Q3 FY26 with net profit crashing to ₹26.10 lakhs from ₹8.36 crores in the same period last year, largely saved from a loss by a deferred tax credit of ₹2.23 crores. Revenue from operations remained stagnant at ₹101.88 crores compared to ₹103.15 crores YoY, while the company posted a pre-tax loss of ₹1.97 crores. The auditor's report contains several critical qualifications, including the inability to verify inventory and fixed assets, and notes a pending SEBI penalty that restrained directors from the securities market.

Net profit for Q3 FY26 fell 96.8% YoY to ₹26.10 lakhs, down from ₹8.36 crores in Q3 FY25.
Revenue from operations decreased 14% sequentially to ₹101.88 crores from ₹118.60 crores in Q2 FY26.
Auditors flagged inability to verify physical inventory and Property, Plant & Equipment (PPE) for the period.
SEBI imposed a ₹12 lakh penalty on the company and ₹54 lakh on directors/KMPs, restraining them from the market for one year.
7.5 million convertible warrants lapsed and were forfeited as holders failed to exercise conversion options by the December 2025 deadline.

💡 Investors should remain highly cautious given the sharp decline in operational profitability and multiple auditor qualifications regarding asset verification. The ongoing legal disputes with Bank of Baroda and SEBI regulatory actions represent significant governance and financial risks.
