Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Thermax Q1 FY27 consolidated revenue rose 7% to Rs 2,303 crore, but PAT fell 85% to Rs 22 crore due to a Rs 91 crore cost overrun in one Industrial Infra project. PBT dropped 80% to Rs 42 crore. Order book grew 23% to Rs 14,045 crore. Board also approved a composite scheme: demerger of Bio-CNG EPC business from wholly owned TBSPL into Thermax, and merger of TCSL into Thermax. No new shares issued, scheme subject to NCLT approval.
Weak Q1 profits hurt by one-off cost overrun; group restructuring simplifies structure with no share dilution for shareholders.
