The business

Small revenue, small losses

Q1 FY27 results were published on July 25, ten days before the first August sale. Revenue was ₹0.73 Cr (₹0.48 Cr in Q4 FY26; ₹0.03 Cr in Q1 FY26) and the quarter showed a net loss of ₹0.07 Cr. Q1, Q2 and Q3 of FY26 were also loss quarters; Q4 FY26 was a profit of ₹0.08 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹1.44 Cr. At ₹34, the market capitalisation is about ₹25 Cr.

What to watch

The filings that settle the picture

  • q2-shareholding

    Q2 FY27 shareholding pattern (due mid-October): the actual promoter-group percentage after the August sales, versus the ~17% implied here.

  • further-29-2

    Further Reg 29(2) or PIT disposal filings from the remaining promoter holders.

  • reclassification

    Any promoter reclassification request, share purchase agreement or open offer, which would explain the sales; none has been filed.

  • liquidity

    Volume: the August average of 1.8 lakh shares a day was many times the pre-August norm and has already fallen back.

Promoter-group members sold 32.3% of Disha Resources on the open market over fourteen sessions in August, at prices between ₹26 and ₹35, while the stock rose. Roughly 17% remains with the group pending the next shareholding pattern. The filings give no reason, and none is inferred here.

For a ₹25 Cr company with ₹1.4 Cr of annual revenue, a change of this size in who owns it is the material fact; the September shareholding pattern is the document that confirms it.
