Financial Growth

The strong market movement follows the company's financial results for the second quarter and the first half of the financial year. Revenue from operations for the first half of fiscal year 2027 jumped to 290 crore and 56 lakh rupees, compared to 3 crore and 33 lakh rupees in the same period last year.

Agricultural produce trading brought in 279 crore and 42 lakh rupees during the first half, while IT-enabled services added 11 crore and 14 lakh rupees. Managing Director Sumit Harjibhai Gol stated that the early traction reflects strong market demand for these new business verticals.
