Rishi Laser reported Q2 FY26 revenue from operations of ₹4,284 lakhs, up about 10% YoY from ₹3,899 lakhs. H1 FY26 revenue stood at ₹8,387 lakhs versus ₹7,599 lakhs in H1 FY25, also about 10% higher. Profit before tax for H1 rose sharply to ₹537.5 lakhs (vs ₹401 lakhs), helped by stable input costs, while H1 profit after tax came in at ₹388 lakhs, up only modestly from ₹369 lakhs. Basic EPS for the half year was ₹4.22 (vs ₹4.02). Operating cash flow was strong at ₹521.6 lakhs and cash balance nearly 5x higher to ₹853 lakhs. The auditor (Shah Mehta & Bakshi) issued an unqualified limited review report.
Modest top-line growth combined with stronger profit-before-tax suggests margin expansion, benefiting shareholders. However, the gap between PBT and PAT growth (~34% vs ~5%) signals higher tax outgo this period, while rising borrowings and capex of ~₹448 lakhs point to an investment phase that may weigh on near-term shareholder returns.
