Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Cera Sanitaryware reported Q4 FY26 revenue of Rs. 6,438 million, up 11.4% YoY, showing an improvement in demand conditions. However, profitability declined significantly: EBITDA fell 7.3% to Rs. 979 million with margin compressing 310 bps to 15.2%, and PAT dropped 9.7% to Rs. 773 million with margin shrinking 280 bps to 12.0%. For the full year FY26, revenue grew 7.0% to Rs. 20,501 million, but EBITDA declined 7.4% to Rs. 2,692 million (margin down 210 bps to 13.1%) and PAT fell 17.2% to Rs. 2,042 million (margin down 290 bps to 10.0%). The company cited elevated input costs, particularly in brass, as the key headwind and implemented price revisions in March 2026 to partially offset this. The Chairman expressed confidence in regaining margin control as input cost pressures moderate.
The stock faces pressure as both quarterly and annual profitability declined sharply despite revenue growth, driven by margin compression from input cost inflation. The company needs input costs to moderate and operational efficiency to improve to restore earnings growth.
