Quarter Snapshot

Q2 FY27 was the first full eTunnel consolidation quarter: operating revenue grew 35.4% QoQ to Rs.3.2554 cr, but the group swung from a Rs.1.41 cr Q1 profit (entirely other-income-driven) to a Rs.(3.40) cr loss, with P&L-derived EBITDA margin at (69.95)% and total expenses roughly twice operating revenue. The balance sheet now carries Rs.292.87 cr of acquisition-related intangibles exceeding total equity, borrowings of Rs.28.04 cr, and negative tangible net worth. No quantified management guidance exists to benchmark against, and the acquired subsidiary drove nearly the entire consolidated loss.
