Patel Engineering Ltd's board approved audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2026. Standalone revenue grew marginally to Rs. 50,665.64 million from Rs. 50,076.45 million in FY25, while profit after tax (PAT) increased to Rs. 2,849.60 million from Rs. 2,622.10 million (PAT growth of ~8.7% YoY). Operating margin compressed from 13.80% to 13.02%. Exceptional items of Rs. 1,175.68 million were recorded, mainly due to new labour code provisions (Rs. 57.77 million) and impairment/write-off provisions. The company also approved the sale of its entire stake in associate ACP Tollways Pvt Ltd (84,95,040 shares) for Rs. 55 crore, representing a gain on carrying value of Rs. 26.03 crore. The transaction is expected to complete by March 31, 2027, pending lender approvals.
The company delivered modest profit growth with margin compression, while the stake sale in ACP Tollways will generate a Rs. 28.97 crore gain and reduce debt. The clean audit opinion with no going concern issues provides some comfort, but the compressed margins and substantial exceptional items may concern investors.
