On the reaction day the stock moved 0.1 pts more than Nifty Microcap 250 and 0.2 pts less than its Auto Components & Equipments 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.
SAL Automotive reported Q3 FY26 total income of Rs. 8,797 lakhs, down about 7.6% year-on-year from Rs. 9,521 lakhs, and sharply lower sequentially from Rs. 10,805 lakhs in Q2. Net profit for the quarter fell to Rs. 61 lakhs versus Rs. 140 lakhs in Q3 last year. For the nine months, total income was nearly flat at Rs. 29,622 lakhs (vs Rs. 29,014 lakhs), but net profit dropped to Rs. 333 lakhs from Rs. 445 lakhs. The weak Q3 was largely driven by a sharp decline in Agriculture Implements revenue (Rs. 4,097 lakhs vs Rs. 6,216 lakhs a year ago), while Automobile Components continued to grow strongly. The company also booked a one-time exceptional charge of Rs. 58 lakhs related to the new Labour Codes (gratuity and leave liability impact). The statutory auditor issued a clean limited review report with no qualifications.
The sharp fall in quarterly profit and the steep drop in agriculture segment revenue are negatives for near-term sentiment, though the one-time Labour Code charge distorts the underlying picture. Shareholders should note that EPS comparisons are affected by the 1:1 bonus issue done in April 2025.
