Aditya Consumer Marketing Cuts Half-Year Net Loss to ₹1.22 Crore as Retail Store Loss Shrinks

Aditya Consumer Marketing reported a standalone net loss of ₹1.22 crore for the half year ended September 30, 2026, narrower than the ₹2.17 crore loss in the same period a year earlier. Revenue from operations slipped to ₹44.99 crore from ₹45.19 crore, ScanX reported on October 30, 2026.

How Aditya Consumer Marketing's Segments Performed

Aditya Consumer Marketing is a BSE-listed, Bihar-based multi-format retail and F&B operator running supermarkets, restaurants, banquet halls, salons and food delivery under the 9to9 brand family, serving tier-2 consumers in Patna, Gaya, Muzaffarpur and Darbhanga.

Total segment pre-tax loss was ₹1.06 crore against ₹1.99 crore a year earlier. ScanX attributed the smaller bottom-line loss to lower operating expenses and favorable working capital movements, and noted the period included a prior period exceptional item related to depreciation adjustments.

Cash and cash equivalents stood at ₹12.25 crore as on September 30, 2026, against ₹12.16 crore as on March 31, 2026. Short-term borrowings increased to ₹7.97 crore from ₹5.92 crore. Net cash used in operating activities was ₹1.33 crore for the half year, which ScanX linked primarily to an increase in inventories and trade receivables, partly offset by higher trade payables. Financing activities generated a net inflow of ₹1.46 crore, largely from proceeds of short-term borrowings amounting to ₹2.05 crore.
