Universal Autofoundry Limited
Casts graded grey iron and ductile (S.G.) iron components for automobile and industrial customers from its two foundries in Jaipur and Reengus, Rajasthan. FY26 revenue was Rs 210.09 crore, with materials making up 55.6% of that, employee costs 14.2%, other operating expenses 25.2%, and depreciation 5.5%. Capacity utilisation stood at 54% in FY26 and rose to 55% in Q1 FY27 (from 49% a year earlier), with management targeting 65% from FY27 to lift operating leverage. The company is shifting its mix toward non-tractor segments (target: 75% of revenue in 3-5 years) and exports (Rs 51 million in Q1 FY27, up 7% YoY, with a 15% of revenue target in 3 years). It commissioned a 5MW solar plant in FY26 and is bringing up an additional 6.5MW solar facility at Churu (commissioning expected in 2-3 months) to lower power costs in H2 FY27. The company posted a net loss of Rs 3.34 crore in FY26 versus a Rs 2.35 crore profit in FY25, hit by raw material cost pressure and pricing stress despite revenue growth of about 9%.

Sources, method and disclosures
This document is a statistical summary of publicly filed information and market data, prepared by software from primary sources: SEBI results XBRL filed with BSE and NSE, LODR disclosures, shareholding patterns, exchange price data. It contains no research recommendation, no price target and no opinion on the merits of any security, and is not a research report within the meaning of the SEBI (Research Analysts) Regulations, 2014, Regulation 2(1)(w)(vii). Financial statements are as filed (consolidated where the company files consolidated results). Ratios are computed over filed lines. Where a figure is unavailable the table shows a dash rather than an estimate. The business brief is written by MarketPing's reader from the annual report and checked against it; no figure in a table was generated by a model. Nothing here constitutes investment advice, an offer or a solicitation; readers should consult a SEBI-registered adviser before acting. MarketPing is not a SEBI-registered intermediary.
