JK Lakshmi Cement reported Q1 FY27 standalone net sales of Rs 1,904.78 Cr, up 9.4% YoY from Rs 1,740.93 Cr. Sales volume rose 8% to 35.98 lakh tonnes. However, EBITDA fell 18% to Rs 273.77 Cr, with margins compressing to 14.4% from 19.3% due to higher fuel and power costs. PAT dropped 30% to Rs 106.77 Cr. Net debt to EBITDA worsened to 1.38x. Company announced Rs 3,000 Cr capex for Durg plant expansion by March 2028.
Sharp EBITDA margin compression and 30% PAT decline despite revenue growth. Rs 3,000 Cr capex plan signals growth but raises leverage.
