Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Dhunseri Tea & Industries Limited reported consolidated revenue from operations of INR 85.13 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, alongside total income of INR 86.09 crore. Net profit after tax (PAT) for the quarter stood at INR 4.52 crore, yielding a basic and diluted earnings per share of INR 4.30.
Tea cultivation and production are seasonal in nature, creating pronounced operational peaks and troughs across reporting periods. The company explicitly notes that performance in any single quarter cannot be extrapolated to estimate annual outcomes.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate foreign operations in Malawi, where the local currency operates within a hyperinflationary economy under Ind AS 29. Restatement of these Malawian entities resulted in a non-cash net loss of INR 39 lakh recognised during the quarter.
Total expenses for the period reached INR 74.85 crore, driven by employee benefit expenses of INR 69.71 crore and power and fuel expenses of INR 13.94 crore. Changes in inventories of finished goods and traded goods showed a positive inventory adjustment effect of INR 46.60 crore.
Finance costs for the quarter were recorded at INR 5.10 crore, while depreciation and amortisation charges amounted to INR 4.87 crore. Total tax expense for the period was reported at INR 6.72 crore, comprising current tax of INR 5.33 crore and deferred tax of INR 1.39 crore.
The company's consolidated results include multiple domestic and international subsidiaries, such as Kawalazi Estate Company Limited, Makandi Tea and Coffee Estates Ltd., A M Hendersons and Sons Limited, Ntimabi Estate Limited, and Chiwale Estate Management Services Limited.
Profit after tax was ₹4.52 Cr for the reported quarter. EPS was ₹4.30 for the reported quarter.
01 · Business model
What does Dhunseri Tea & Industries do?
Dhunseri Tea & Industries Limited operates as an integrated enterprise engaged in the growing, harvesting, manufacturing, and sale of tea. The company also produces macadamia nuts through its international operating subsidiaries located in Africa.
The business model relies heavily on agricultural cycles and seasonal variations inherent to tea cultivation and harvesting. Consequently, individual quarterly financial performance fluctuates significantly and does not reflect expected annual results.
Geographically, the group generates revenue from both domestic Indian markets and international destinations, supported by overseas subsidiaries incorporated under Dhunseri Petrochem & Tea Pte. Ltd. and Makandi Tea and Coffee Estates Ltd.
02 · Historical context
What shaped the business before this quarter
The parent company previously sold specified assets of Balijan Tea Estate during the previous financial year, booking a profit of INR 4.35 crore under exceptional items. Additionally, specified assets of Deohall Tea Estate were sold in the quarter ended September 30, 2025, realising a profit of INR 2.05 crore. Consequently, current quarter numbers exclude contributions from these divested estates.
Dhunseri Mauritius Pte Limited was struck off with effect from December 09, 2025, altering the consolidation scope compared to prior periods.
The group applied Ind AS 29 ('Accounting for Hyperinflationary Economies') on subsidiaries operating in Malawi with effect from April 1, 2024, following the classification of the Malawi kwacha as a hyperinflationary currency.

Financial interpretation
What the reported numbers mean
Profit after tax represented 5.3% of reported quarterly operating revenue. This is a calculated net-profit-to-sales ratio, not a company-reported operating margin. It measures the outcome after expenses and tax; it does not, by itself, establish how margins changed versus another period.
Profit before tax was equivalent to 0.0% of quarterly operating revenue. The distinction between pre-tax and post-tax profit matters when interpreting earnings; neither ratio identifies an underlying cost driver without a properly matched comparative period.
Total income exceeded operating revenue by ₹0.95 crore. This is the disclosed difference between the two lines, not incremental sales. The distinction matters when assessing how much of the quarter’s reported income came from the operating top line.
Ratios above are calculated from the reported quarterly figures. They are analytical descriptions, not company-reported margin guidance or an investment recommendation.
