Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Arvind Limited recorded consolidated revenue from operations of INR 2,500.96 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1 FY27), accompanied by total income of INR 2,518.80 crore. In company investor disclosures, management highlighted a 25% year-on-year consolidated revenue growth when compared to Q1 FY26, driven by volume expansion across core segments and inorganic additions.
Profit before tax (PBT) for the quarter stood at INR 88.88 crore, while profit after tax (PAT) attributable to the total period reached INR 57.77 crore (with owner-attributable profit at INR 53.45 crore and basic EPS at INR 2.04). Company disclosures noted that PAT before exceptional items grew by 47% year-on-year to INR 80 crore, bolstered by operating leverage and inorganic consolidation.
The operational performance during the quarter was influenced by evolving geo-economic developments, shifts in global trade and shipping channels, and elevated input costs across key raw material categories. Despite being the seasonally weaker quarter of the year, core demand remained resilient.
Textile division revenue stood at INR 1,735 crore (excluding inter-segment sales), reflecting a 13% year-on-year increase. Volume momentum remained strong, with denim fabric volumes reaching 17.5 million metres (the highest level in 16 quarters, up 34% year-on-year) and woven fabric volumes rising 7% to 31.2 million metres.
Garmenting volumes surpassed 11 million pieces for the first time, recording 13% year-on-year growth supported by higher verticalization, though revenue growth was moderated by a higher contribution from value-segment products.
The Advanced Materials Business delivered robust expansion, reporting total revenue of INR 650 crore (up 85% year-on-year) and EBITDA of INR 97 crore. This performance includes the consolidation of Dalco-GFT (USA) from May 6, 2026, which contributed revenue of INR 157.2 crore and EBITDA of INR 23.7 crore for approximately 1.8 months of the quarter.
Operating margins in textiles faced pressure from an estimated INR 19 crore increase in variable raw material costs and supply chain disruptions. Additionally, the quarter absorbed exceptional items of INR 22.6 crore (net of tax) comprising one-time transaction expenses related to the acquisition of Dalco-GFT.
During the quarter, the company expanded its international footprint by establishing a London office and representative network, partnered with a garment manufacturer in Bangladesh, and subsequently completed a INR 500 crore Qualified Institutions Placement (QIP) to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce debt.

04 · Why it moved
Why the quarter looked the way it did
What drove revenue
Denim volumes rose 34% year-on-year to 17.5 million metres, marking the highest volume in 16 quarters, driven by higher verticalization and new product introductions such as flannel and corduroy.
Woven fabric volumes grew 7% year-on-year to 31.2 million metres despite being a seasonally weaker quarter, supported by steady demand and realization gains.
AMB revenue surged 85% year-on-year to INR 650 crore, aided by 40% organic growth in India (reaching INR 493 crore) and the partial-quarter consolidation of newly acquired Dalco-GFT (INR 157.2 crore for 1.8 months).
What drove margins
Textile division EBITDA was impacted by an estimated INR 19 crore increase in variable raw material prices and supply chain disruptions.
AMB EBITDA margins expanded to 15.0% (compared to 12.9% in Q1 FY26), supported by operating leverage, an improved business mix, and a lower base.
Dalco-GFT delivered an EBITDA margin of 15.1% for the 1.8-month post-acquisition period (and 16.3% on a full-quarter basis), though margins were temporarily constrained by sharp increases in raw material costs.
