S H Kelkar reported a strong turnaround in Q1 FY26 (quarter ended June 30, 2025). Consolidated revenue from operations rose about 23.5% year-on-year to Rs 580.63 crore (vs Rs 470.31 crore in Q1 FY25), driven by growth in both Fragrances (Rs 509.96 cr, up from Rs 426.39 cr) and Flavours (Rs 68.60 cr, up from Rs 41.48 cr). The company swung back to a net profit of Rs 25.55 crore from continuing operations, compared to a loss of Rs 63.75 crore in the same quarter last year. Standalone revenue grew even faster, up about 43% to Rs 339.22 crore, with a net profit of Rs 4.10 crore versus a Rs 91.79 crore loss a year ago. An exceptional gain of Rs 2.11 crore was booked from sale of scrap related to the April 2024 Vashivali plant fire. Auditors Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP issued an unmodified limited review report with no qualifications.
Positive for shareholders: sharp revenue growth, return to profitability, and a clean audit opinion suggest operational recovery. The internal restructuring (transferring Keva UK and Keva USA to Keva Fragrances Pvt Ltd, and incorporating a new UAE entity) is an inter-group realignment with no change in ultimate ownership, so it should not materially affect consolidated financials but may signal the company's intent to expand in the Middle East market.
