Recent margin recovery to 18.08% OPM in Jun 2026 from 3.82% in Sep 2025 suggests operational improvements; verify whether structural or cyclical and whether sustainable at scale.

Revenue scale of ₹260–290 Cr per quarter provides foundation for growth if combined with margin stability and volume expansion.

ROE of 1.11% indicates substantial room for capital efficiency improvement; sustained margin recovery combined with better asset turns could significantly raise shareholder returns.
