Profitability Margins

Profit After Tax (PAT) for FY2025 was INR 312 Cr, down 18.9% from INR 385 Cr in FY2024. The PAT margin technically exceeds 100% of total income due to fair value adjustments and tax write-backs common in investment companies.

Credit Rating & Borrowing

CRISIL reaffirmed its 'CRISIL AAA/Stable' rating for the company's INR 10 Cr Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs) in October 2025. The company is described as almost debt-free, maintaining high liquidity and a robust capital position.
