Cummins India Ltd. reported revenue of ₹3,170 cr for July to September 2025, +26.4% on the year and +9.1% on the quarter. It is the highest quarterly revenue in the last 10 quarters on record. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹11,643 cr, +20.2% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹695 cr, a margin of 21.9%, +263 bps on the year and +45 bps on the quarter. Over the last 8 quarters the margin has ranged from 19.3% to 23.2%, averaging 21.0%. Operating costs grew +22.2% against revenue growth of +26.4%, so more of each rupee of sales reached operating profit.
Net profit was ₹622 cr, +38.6% on the year and +3.0% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹22.45. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew faster, at +60.5%; other income, one-offs or tax held the headline back. The tax rate of 24% is in line with its recent average. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹2,314 cr, +18.7% on the four before.
Capital goods and EPC revenue follows project execution, which makes quarters uneven; the order book and new orders tell more about the year than one quarter does. The quarterly statements do not carry the order book, new orders and working capital; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹83.49 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹4,135.20 trades at 49.5 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow filed with this quarter, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.
No check fired. That is a statement about the checks below, not a verdict on the company.
Core profit grew faster than reported profit: one-offs held the headline down.
