Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Shankara Buildpro delivered revenue from operations of ₹1,890 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, marking a 21% increase year-on-year compared to ₹1,568 crore reported in Q1 FY26, driven by sustained momentum in its steel marketplace and a recovery in non-steel categories.
Volume performance in the core steel segment reached 2.50 lakh tonnes, representing a 10% year-on-year growth despite structural steel demand across the wider industry remaining soft due to macroeconomic caution and geopolitical headwinds.
The non-steel marketplace registered revenue of ₹165 crore, marking a 15% year-on-year growth and signalling an encouraging turnaround following a two-year consolidation phase through FY25 and FY26.
EBITDA margin for the quarter was reported at 3.26%, compared to 3.36% in Q1 FY26 and 3.51% in Q4 FY26, experiencing minor compression due to settled steel pricing levels.
Working capital efficiency remained a key operational highlight, with working capital days maintained at 27 days for Q1 FY27, comfortably held below the 30-day threshold.
Finance costs were maintained under control at ₹10.32 crore during the quarter, representing 0.55% of revenue, down from 0.58% in Q1 FY26 and 0.63% in Q4 FY26, reflecting disciplined working capital management alongside scaling operations.
