Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
KEC International posted Q3 FY26 consolidated revenue of Rs 6,001.35 cr, up 12.2% YoY. Nine month revenue rose 14.3% to Rs 17,115.79 cr. Nine month PAT jumped 36.4% to Rs 412.81 cr versus Rs 302.55 cr last year, but Q3 PAT slipped slightly to Rs 127.46 cr from Rs 129.56 cr. The company recognized a Rs 58.78 cr exceptional item due to new Labour Codes notified in November 2025. The limited review report flagged a sub-judice chargesheet matter involving a company employee on a transmission project, with impact not yet determinable. EPC remained the dominant segment. Operating margin improved to 7.16% in Q3.
Strong 9M profit growth and revenue expansion signal steady execution. Exceptional Labour Codes charge and sub-judice matter may weigh on sentiment.
