Shree Cement Ltd. reported revenue of ₹5,897 cr for July to September 2026, +23.9% on the year and −5.4% on the quarter. That is faster than this quarter has grown in recent years (+1.2% on average), so the year-on-year number is not just the season. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹23,032 cr, +14.3% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹1,016 cr, a margin of 17.2%, −323 bps on the year and −318 bps on the quarter. It is the narrowest margin of the last 8 quarters (range 17.2% to 25.8%). Operating costs grew +28.9%, faster than revenue at +23.9%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹263 cr, −15.2% on the year and −50.5% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹72.57. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew faster, at 0.0%; other income, one-offs or tax held the headline back. The tax rate was 28% against an average of 23% over the previous 7 quarters, which weighed on profit this quarter. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹1,590 cr, −7.7% on the four before.
Of the 46 companies in Capital goods and EPC that have reported Q2 FY27 so far, Shree Cement Ltd. ranks 17th on revenue growth; the sector median is +17.0%. Its margin moved −323 bps on the year against a sector median of +9 bps.
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 ₹438.86 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹24,920.00 trades at 56.8 times trailing earnings.
