On the reaction day the stock moved 5.3 pts less than its Cement & Cement Products 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.
For the quarter ended 30 September 2026, consolidated revenue rose 2.5% to Rs 831.03 crore from Rs 810.94 crore a year earlier; profit after tax fell 44.3% to Rs 39.58 crore from Rs 71.06 crore. EBITDA margin fell 5 percentage points to 18.5% from 23.5%. Half-year consolidated revenue was Rs 1,773.92 crore and profit after tax Rs 113.49 crore. Interim dividend Rs 1 per share, record date 13 November; Rs 1,500 crore share issue paused.
The dividend and pause to the share issue may support the stock, but lower profit and a weaker margin may weigh on it; bank funding may add leverage.
