Birla Corporation concluded FY25-26 with record net profit of Rs 558 crore, up 89% over FY25. Full-year cement sales reached a record 18.72 million tons with 95% capacity utilisation, significantly above the ~70% industry average. Q4 net profit rose 15% to Rs 295 crore on near-flat revenue of Rs 2,875 crore, as depressed cement realisations (Rs 4,986/ton vs Rs 5,103 YoY) offset volume growth of 4% to 5.45 mt. Premium cement now accounts for 63% of Q4 trade channel sales (up 21% by volume), and EBITDA per ton for the full year rose 15% to Rs 786. The Jute Division posted a Q4 cash loss of ~Rs 12 crore due to raw jute prices spiking 92% YoY, dragging overall Q4 performance. The company expanded its annual cement production capacity to 21.4 mt with the Kundanganj Line III commissioning.
Strong bottom-line growth and market share gains (premiumisation, blended cement) signal operational resilience, but flat Q4 revenue and weak realisations amid new industry capacity suggest margin pressure may persist near-term. Jute division remains a drag.
