AI summary

CEAT's consolidated quarter ended September 30, 2025 revenue rose 14.2% to Rs 3,772.65 crore and net profit rose 52.9% to Rs 185.71 crore. Operating margin improved to 13.53% from 11.13%, and operating cash flow reached Rs 873.77 crore. A Rs 3.29 crore voluntary retirement cost was exceptional. The USD 225 million Camso off-highway acquisition closed September 1. Two additional directors were appointed, subject to shareholder approval.

Likely market impact

Profit, margin and cash flow growth support sentiment, but higher borrowings and Camso integration add execution and debt risk.
