Q2 FY26 revenue Rs 375.66 Cr (down 6.7% YoY), H1 revenue Rs 697.83 Cr (down 7.8%). Q2 PAT Rs 25.69 Cr vs Rs 28.89 Cr; H1 PAT Rs 28.22 Cr vs Rs 53.19 Cr, a 47% drop. Exceptional gain of Rs 21.53 Cr from insurance payout for Dec 2024 Rajkot plant fire. Core margins compressed sharply due to fire disruption and production shifts to Modasa, Nagpur, Gondal. Board declared first interim dividend of Rs 0.25 per share. Also authorized Rs 200 Cr for acquisitions.
Weak core earnings despite insurance boost. Watch Rajkot plant recovery and acquisition plans. Small interim dividend declared.
