AI summary

JK Lakshmi Cement reported audited standalone FY26 results with net sales of Rs 6,762.63 Crores (up 9.2% from Rs 6,192.62 Crores in FY25). Net profit after tax grew 52.3% to Rs 430.34 Crores from Rs 282.72 Crores. EBITDA improved to Rs 1,127.90 Crores from Rs 918.27 Crores. The company also announced a dividend of Rs 6.50 per share (130%). Key developments include derecognition of Rs 325 Crore investment in Trivikram Consortium due to MDO contract cancellation by AMDCL, with Rs 130 Crore claimed as recoverable via legal proceedings. A new subsidiary NECEM Cement was acquired (77.96% stake). A composite scheme of amalgamation became effective from July 31, 2025. Capital expansion plans include Rs 3,000 Crores for additional capacity to be completed by March 2028.

Likely market impact

Strong profit growth of 52% year-on-year with improved leverage (Net Debt/EBITDA at 1.12 vs 1.50) reflects operational efficiency. However, the Q4 FY26 PAT of Rs 138.22 Crores was lower than Q4 FY25's Rs 169.81 Crores due to exceptional items. Legal dispute over Rs 130 Crore recovery is pending but management is confident of recovery.
