Quarterly results are out.
Winners & losers are clear.

But here are 3 stocks from Nifty 500 that posted massive revenue jumps.

Why so fast?
Is it sustainable?
Or a one-off spike?

Letโ€™s decode ๐Ÿ‘‡ Image
1/ Chalet Hotels ๐Ÿจ

Not just hotels, Chalet is a diversified hospitality & real estate play.
โ€ข๐Ÿ๐Ÿ ๐ก๐จ๐ญ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฌ | ๐Ÿ‘,๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ ๐ซ๐จ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฌ | ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ ๐›๐ซ๐š๐ง๐๐ฌ (Marriott, Accor, Hyatt)
โ€ขFY25 revenue mix:
โ€ขHotels & Resorts โ†’ ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ•%
โ€ขCommercial leasing โ†’ ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ.๐Ÿ%
โ€ขResidential โ†’ ๐ŸŽ% (but kicked in FY26)

๐Ÿ“ˆ Q1 FY26:
โ€ขRevenue: โ‚น895 Cr (+148% YoY)
โ€ขNet Profit: โ‚น203 Cr (+233% YoY)
โ€ขEBITDA: โ‚น357 Cr | 40% margins

๐Ÿ‘‰ But ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ–% revenue came from a one off residential project (Koramangala).

Excluding that:
โ€ขHotels & Commercial โ†’ +27% YoY revenue
โ€ขEBITDA โ†’ +37% YoY

๐Ÿ”‘ Takeaway: Core business solid, but real-estate boost is non-recurring.

โš ๏ธ Risks: ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ% promoter shares pledged, low RoE vs peers.
2/ Netweb Technologies ๐Ÿ’ปโšก

The quiet enabler of India AI & Data Centre boom.

โ€ข๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐‚๐ฅ๐จ๐ฎ๐ / ๐‡๐‚๐ˆ โ†’ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“.๐Ÿ% rev | +51% YoY

๐Ÿ“ˆ Q1 FY26:
โ€ขRevenue: โ‚น310 Cr (2x YoY)
โ€ขEBITDA: โ‚น45 Cr (+125% YoY | 15% margin)
โ€ขNet Profit: โ‚น30 Cr (2x YoY)

Highlights:
โ€ขExecuted large AI defense order
โ€ขAI segment โ†’ +300% YoY | โ…“ of revenue
โ€ขGovt orders = 60% revenue
โ€ขAnnounced โ‚น734 Cr AI infra deal under India AI Mission

โš ๏ธ Concerns:
โ€ขReceivables = ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ% of sales
โ€ขWeak profit-to-cash conversion (median ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‘%)
โ€ขFY25 CFO = negative

๐Ÿ”‘ Takeaway: AI = rocket fuel ๐Ÿš€ but watch cash flows closely.

๐Ÿšจ The truth no one tells you:

In the last 20 years, midcaps have beaten largecaps in almost every cycle.
Yet 90% of investors stay stuck in Reliance, HDFC Bank, TCS.

Here is data & research on why midcaps create wealth & 7 stocks I am tracking for the next 5 yrs. ๐Ÿงต Image
Markets move in cycles:

๐Ÿ“ˆ Largecaps give safety.
๐Ÿ“ˆ Midcaps give growth.

๐Ÿ‘‰ 2013โ€“14: Midcaps > Largecaps
๐Ÿ‘‰ 2016โ€“17: Midcaps > Largecaps
๐Ÿ‘‰ Post-COVID 2021 & 2023โ€“24:

Midcaps again crushed largecaps.
Lesson โ†’ Cycles repeat. Wealth comes when you ride midcaps right.
Why do midcaps outperform?

โ€ขLarge biz = slower growth ๐Ÿข
โ€ขMidcap = room to scale ๐Ÿš€
โ€ขStock price = earnings acceleration

That is how some midcaps did 4xโ€“6x in a few years.
But โš ๏ธ volatility = real risk. Donโ€™t buy blind.
