A B Infrabuild Posts Profit of 499.12 Lakh Rupees in Second Quarter
Key Facts
A B Infrabuild said its profit for the period was 499.12 lakh rupees in the quarter ended September 30, 2026, according to unaudited results approved by the board on November 3. Profit was higher than the 213.11 lakh rupees recorded in the same quarter a year earlier. But it declined from 534.30 lakh rupees in the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The quarter-on-quarter comparison puts second-quarter profit below the previous quarter, despite its annual improvement. The results cover the quarter and first half ended September 30.
Revenue from operations was 7,422.92 lakh rupees for the quarter, compared with 3,730.31 lakh rupees in the corresponding period a year earlier. On a quarterly basis, revenue was below the 7,625.14 lakh rupees recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The figures therefore show a divergence between the two comparisons: revenue was higher than a year earlier and lower than the previous quarter. These indicators provide context for profit, which also rose annually and fell quarter on quarter. The available results did not include an explanation linking changes in revenue or profit to a specific project.
In the first half ended September 30, 2026, the company recorded operating revenue of 15,048.06 lakh rupees, compared with 9,786.60 lakh rupees in the corresponding half of 2025. Profit for the period was 1,033.42 lakh rupees, against 725.00 lakh rupees in the comparable period. These figures show six-month performance and are not limited to the second-quarter result. Meanwhile, net cash flow from operating activities was negative 2,348.59 lakh rupees in the first half, compared with negative 247.54 lakh rupees in the corresponding half of 2025. The results therefore show negative operating cash flow in both periods, with a larger negative figure in the first half of 2026.
The results showed current borrowings of 13,882.03 lakh rupees as of September 30, 2026, compared with 8,824.87 lakh rupees as of March 31, 2026. The company describes its business as covering railway infrastructure, including track laying, platforms and station buildings, as well as bridge works. But the published results did not attribute the quarter's performance to an expansion in these projects. The reviewers noted that a review of interim financial information is substantially narrower in scope than an audit and that they did not express an audit opinion. The board's approval covers the unaudited results for the quarter and first half ended September 30, 2026.
