Indo Count Industries reported Q1 FY26 revenue of Rs. 967 Cr, up 1.8% year-on-year, while sales volumes declined to 23.6 Mn Mtrs from 25.3 Mn Mtrs due to US tariff-related demand softness and inventory adjustments by big-box retailers. EBITDA fell 22.8% YoY to Rs. 119 Cr, though margins recovered 372 basis points quarter-on-quarter to 12.26% on better cost efficiency. Profit after tax dropped 51.4% YoY to Rs. 38 Cr (EPS of Rs. 1.91), impacted by product mix and incubation costs of new businesses. The company relaunched the legacy 'Wamsutta' brand in the US via a D2C platform in July 2025 with strong early response, and new businesses (Utility Bedding + USA brand) grew to Rs. 130 Cr, contributing ~20% to consolidated revenue.
Weak quarter for shareholders — sharp YoY decline in profits and margins reflects US tariff headwinds and volume pressure, though the QoQ margin recovery and positive traction in branded/new businesses offer some comfort. Near-term outlook remains subdued until trade clarity emerges, making this a watch-and-wait quarter rather than a clear positive trigger for the stock.
