Industries Limited announced a 12% revenue growth for the second quarter of FY 2025-26, achieving a total revenue of ₹1,326.61 crore compared to ₹1,189.24 crore in the same quarter last year. The performance was notably boosted by the Home Appliances Division (HAD), which experienced a robust 14% growth, whereas the Engineering Division saw a more modest increase of 6%. This growth trajectory was primarily driven by strong sales in the washer category, although revenues from the air conditioning (AC) segment remained subdued.

The company's Profit Before Depreciation, Interest, and Tax (PBDIT) surged by 49%, reaching ₹102.50 crore, influenced by strong performance in August and September, despite a slower month in July. As a result, margins improved at both the Profit Before Tax (PBT) and Profit After Tax (PAT) levels, showcasing an overall enhancement in operating profitability. PBT rose to ₹68.32 crore, marking a 53% increase, while PAT also grew significantly by 49%, amounting to ₹49.75 crore.

On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, Industries Limited reported an 8% revenue growth, totaling ₹2,637.43 crore. However, the results were tempered by weak performance in the first quarter, which affected cumulative figures. PBDIT showed a slight improvement of 4%, while PBT grew by 5%, reflecting ongoing trends. The return on capital employed (ROCE) for the YTD period was recorded at 19.09%, down from 20.92% in the previous year, primarily due to increased capital tied up in AC inventory. Overall, the company’s financial performance indicates a positive direction, albeit with some challenges in specific segments.
