Official Q2 FY27 scorecard

All amounts are in ₹ crore, except per-share earnings in rupees. Comparisons use verified same-basis official quarterly filings; a dash means an individual figure or percentage could not be verified. Unavailable periods are omitted, not estimated.

Year-on-year comparisons match the same season; sequential comparisons measure the change from the preceding three-month period and may reflect seasonality. Neither comparison alone establishes the business cause of the movement. Scorecard percentage changes use the absolute prior-period value; a loss turnaround is not ordinary profit growth.

Margins and financial ratios

• Net profit margin: 18.51%. Previous quarter: 24.25%, down 574 basis points. Year-ago quarter: 20.47%, down 196 basis points.

• Derived EBITDA margin: 23.32%. Previous quarter: 24.31%, down 99 basis points. Year-ago quarter: 24.88%, down 157 basis points.

• Total expenses / revenue: 80.25%. Previous quarter: 80.03%, up 0.23 percentage points. Year-ago quarter: 78.41%, up 1.84 percentage points.

• Effective tax rate (tax expense / positive PBT): 24.00%. Previous quarter: 23.45%, up 0.55 percentage points. Year-ago quarter: 25.16%, down 1.16 percentage points.

Margin movements are measured in basis points, not percentage growth: 100 basis points equals one percentage point. Cost ratios measure the share of reported revenue absorbed by a cost, not a forecast.

Cost structure and operating earnings

• Cost of materials: ₹4,201 cr (previous quarter ₹3,317 cr, +26.6% QoQ) (year-ago ₹3,372 cr, +24.6% YoY) — 58.68% of revenue

• Employee costs: ₹461 cr (previous quarter ₹402 cr, +14.8% QoQ) (year-ago ₹386 cr, +19.3% YoY) — 6.44% of revenue

• Finance costs: ₹8.02 cr (previous quarter ₹7.01 cr, +14.4% QoQ) (year-ago ₹6.91 cr, +16.1% YoY) — 0.11% of revenue

• Depreciation: ₹248 cr (previous quarter ₹262 cr, -5.6% QoQ) (year-ago ₹188 cr, +32.0% YoY) — 3.46% of revenue

The derived EBITDA proxy, adjusted to exclude other income and exceptional items, was ₹1,669 cr, equivalent to +23.3% of revenue against +24.9% a year earlier. Reconciliation: profit before tax ₹1,743 cr + finance costs ₹8.02 cr + depreciation ₹248 cr − other income ₹330 cr − signed exceptional items ₹0 cr. This is an analytical calculation, not company-reported EBITDA; statement classification and exceptional-item signs should be checked against the official notes. A rising expense ratio means the reported costs absorb more of the revenue denominator; it does not by itself identify demand, pricing or efficiency changes.

Tax, other income and earnings quality

Profit before tax was ₹1,743 cr. Reported tax expense was ₹418 cr, equivalent to 24.00% of positive profit before tax. Other income was ₹330 cr, or 4.40% of total income; its recurring or non-recurring nature must be checked in the notes. The statement reports exceptional items of ₹0 cr; the number alone does not identify their nature or recurrence. Net profit is not the same as cash generated from operations, and no cash-conversion conclusion is drawn without a verified cash-flow statement.

Earnings per share

Basic EPS was ₹48.27. Diluted EPS was not verified. EPS is expressed in rupees per share, not crore. Profit and EPS can move differently when share counts change; this report does not infer a share issuance, buyback or dilution event without verified disclosures.

Reporting basis and disclosure checks

This report uses Standalone figures only; standalone and consolidated statements are not combined. The reporting period ends on 2026-09-30; the exchange records the filing time as 13-Nov-2026 21:46:22. The quarter-end date is not the announcement date. Segment performance, cash flow, debt, exceptional items, dividend decisions, auditor qualifications and management guidance are not asserted where the structured filing has not verified them. Read the attached official statement and notes before drawing conclusions.

What to track after the result

Compare future revenue, earnings and margins on the same reporting basis and accounting period. Check the official notes for restatements and non-recurring items; a quarterly profit number is not a share-price forecast. No live share-price reaction, analyst consensus, dividend or guidance is inferred from these statement figures.
