On the reaction day the stock moved 1.3 pts less than Nifty Midcap 150 and 0.7 pts less than its Cables - Electricals peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Polycab posted unaudited Q2FY26 results. Q2 revenue from operations rose 18% to Rs 6,477 crore and profit after tax surged 56% to Rs 693 crore, from Rs 5,498 crore and Rs 445 crore a year earlier. In H1, revenue rose 21% to Rs 12,383 crore and PAT rose 53% to Rs 1,293 crore. H1 operating cash flow was Rs 1,791 crore and operating profit before working capital rose 47% to Rs 1,930 crore. The auditor's review report was unmodified.
Strong profit and cash flow growth should support the stock, but higher material costs and a 48% rise in inventory are risks to watch.
