HPL Electric reported audited standalone revenue of Rs. 1,85,800 Lakhs for FY26, up 10.3% from Rs. 1,68,441 Lakhs in FY25. However, standalone net profit declined 4.3% to Rs. 8,306 Lakhs from Rs. 8,680 Lakhs. The company recorded exceptional items of Rs. 535.50 Lakhs (standalone) due to increased employee benefit obligations from new labour codes (Rs. 715.50 Lakhs) partially offset by litigation settlement income (Rs. 180 Lakhs). Consolidated revenue grew 6.5% to Rs. 1,81,110 Lakhs with consolidated PAT at Rs. 9,125 Lakhs. EBITDA margins compressed slightly to 14.16% from 14.28% last year. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 1 per share (10%). Statutory auditors gave an unmodified (clean) opinion on the results.
Revenue growth shows business expansion, but the PAT decline despite higher revenue and margin compression may concern investors. The exceptional items and higher depreciation (up 55% YoY) impacted profitability. The dividend offers some shareholder return. Long-term borrowings increased significantly from Rs. 2,090 Lakhs to Rs. 9,983 Lakhs.
