Vimta Labs Q2FY26 Concall Decoded: Science, Margins & A Dash of Lab Drama
Who knew test tubes could make for such good business? Vimta Labs just clocked its highest-ever quarterly revenue — ₹104.5 crore — proving that science isn’t just about experiments, it’s about execution. While AI startups burn cash, this Hyderabad-based CRO quietly churns out margins north of 35%. CEO Harita Vasireddi sounded calm and clinical, announcing growth across pharma and food testing while hinting that their biologics dream is almost ready to pipette its first molecule. If boring is the new bold, Vimta just patented it. Stick around — the biologics play and WHO audits make this one a nerd’s fairytale.
