According to a regulatory filing dated July 15, the company’s consolidated net profit soared 27.36% year-on-year (YoY) to ₹228.43 crore in the June quarter, on account of higher income.

It had reported a net profit of ₹179.36 crore in the corresponding quarter of the preceding 2025-26 fiscal (Q1 FY26).

During April-June, the company reported its highest-ever quarterly revenue, which jumped 28.04% YoY to ₹1,431.88 crore in Q1 FY27, compared with ₹1,118.29 crore in the year-ago quarter.

However, its standalone sales volumes declined by 5.7% YoY to 1.32 million tonnes (MT) in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, from 1.4 MT in the same period last year, as the firm moved to high-value addition products.

In a statement, the company's CMD Anurag Choudhary said, "We are pleased to report our highest-ever quarterly revenue (₹1,432 crore), EBITDA (₹313 crore) and PAT, underscoring a strong, resilient and sustainable financial performance."

He said that despite the geopolitical backdrop, the performance was improved by product mix across the firm’s core business and continued ramp-up in speciality materials.

“It reflects sustained execution of our diversification strategy, our shift up the value chain toward higher-margin, technology-intensive products, and the growing traction of our global partnerships in advanced materials. We remain focused on scaling momentum as we progress towards our long-term vision of becoming a diversified, future-ready, global advanced materials and application-driven solution company,” Choudhary added.

Looking forward, the company remains focused on scaling its global advanced materials and application-driven solutions, while continuing to strengthen core businesses, Choudhary said.
