The earnings report revealed a consolidated net loss of ₹193.9 Crore, compared to a net profit of ₹77.5 Crore in the same quarter last year. This reversal in performance significantly weighed on market sentiment.

Summary of the Article
Tejas Networks' share price witnessed sharp declines following the release of its Q1 FY26 results, which reflected a deepening loss and a significant drop in revenue. The stock has already declined 45% in 2025 so far, and this fresh dip comes amid delays in government-led and private telecom orders.
Despite the near-term weakness, the company continues to report an increasing order book and new equipment deals, though the impact of these developments will depend on timely execution.
