The company demonstrated strong top-line performance with sales rising 12.3% to ₹71.85 crore in Q1 FY27, as reported by the latest financial results.

Total expenses increased to ₹69.20 crore from ₹61.60 crore in the prior year period, contributing to the profit decline. Key cost drivers included cost of material consumed at ₹35.08 crore and employee benefits expenses rising to ₹15.94 crore from ₹14.75 crore in the previous year.
