TNPL reported total income of Rs 1,154.55 crore for Q1 FY26 (quarter ended June 30, 2025), up modestly from Rs 1,129.85 crore in the same quarter last year. However, the company swung to a loss before tax of Rs 11.82 crore (versus a profit of Rs 34.06 crore YoY) and a loss after tax of Rs 7.41 crore (versus a profit of Rs 21.91 crore YoY), translating to a loss per share of Rs 1.07. EBITDA fell sharply to Rs 113.92 crore from Rs 161.10 crore, as falling paper prices and higher raw material costs hurt profitability. Paper production dipped slightly to 1,06,375 MT, while packaging board output rose to 49,682 MT. The statutory auditor issued a clean (unmodified) limited review report.
Negative near-term for shareholders — the company slipped into a quarterly loss with a ~29% drop in EBITDA due to pricing pressure and input cost inflation. Management is betting on premium products and better realisations to recover profitability, but the dividend of Rs 3/share (30%) and AGM scheduled for September 18 will be closely watched.
