3M India Limited published its Q3 FY26 financial results in Business Line and Prajavani on February 13, 2026, as required under SEBI Listing Regulations. Total income from operations grew about 12% year-on-year to Rs. 1,23,750 lakhs, and profit before tax and exceptional items rose roughly 23% to Rs. 18,921 lakhs, showing a strong underlying quarter. Despite this, the company reported a net loss of Rs. 6,205 lakhs for the quarter (EPS of Rs. -55.09) after booking two large one-time charges: about Rs. 17,096 lakhs in tax and interest related to accepting a final draft Advance Pricing Agreement from the CBDT, and Rs. 7,457 lakhs in additional gratuity cost from the newly notified Labour Codes. For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the company still reported a healthy profit after tax of Rs. 30,697 lakhs (EPS Rs. 272.50). Results were approved by the Board on February 12, 2026.
The Q3 loss is driven entirely by non-recurring regulatory and tax settlements, not by weaker operations; core revenue and pre-exceptional profits are growing strongly. Shareholders may see short-term sentiment pressure from the headline loss, but the nine-month picture remains profitable and the long-term business trajectory looks intact.
