PG Electroplast Ltd. reported revenue of ₹655 cr for July to September 2025, −2.4% on the year and −56.4% on the quarter. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹5,037 cr, +39.9% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹30.0 cr, a margin of 4.6%, −377 bps on the year and −347 bps on the quarter. It is the narrowest margin of the last 8 quarters (range 4.6% to 11.1%). Operating costs grew +1.6%, faster than revenue at −2.4%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹3.0 cr, −84.2% on the year and −95.5% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹0.10. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax fell 130.8%, so 47 points of the headline growth came from outside the core business. The tax rate was 59% against an average of 24% over the previous 8 quarters, which weighed on profit this quarter. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹255 cr, +32.8% on the four before.
Retail growth comes from new stores and from sales at existing stores; the statements show the total, the filing shows how much each contributed. The quarterly statements do not carry same-store sales, stores added and revenue per square foot; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹8.99 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹521.05 trades at 58.0 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.
Half or more of pre-tax profit came from other income. What is it, and does it repeat?
