Quarter overview

Quarterly earnings analysis

01

Birlasoft reported consolidated revenue from operations of ₹14,162 million for the second quarter ended September 30, 2026, marking a 2.7% sequential expansion over the preceding quarter and a 6.6% increase compared to the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. In constant currency and dollar terms, sequential quarterly revenue grew by 2.1% to $148.3 million.

02

Top-line growth during the quarter was anchored by expansion across core verticals including Manufacturing, BFSI, and Lifesciences & Services, alongside steady traction in Digital & Data and ERP service lines. However, sequential momentum was partially dampened by softness in the Energy & Utilities vertical.

03

Profitability for the quarter demonstrated significant year-on-year gains despite margin pressures from organization-wide wage increments and continued investments in sales capabilities. Consolidated profit for the period (PAT) reached ₹1,596 million, representing a 37.5% surge over the ₹1,161 million recorded in Q2 FY25, though it edged down 0.8% sequentially from ₹1,610 million due to higher financing costs and a normalization of tax expenses compared to the previous quarter.

04

EBITDA for the quarter stood at ₹2,153 million ($22.5 million), translating to an EBITDA margin of 15.2%. Management noted that margins absorbed the impact of company-wide salary hikes rolled out during the period alongside ongoing expenditures directed toward building sales and domain expertise.

05

The company demonstrated exceptional working capital discipline, with Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) improving to 51 billed days—marking a two-year low compared to 55 days in the previous quarter—on the back of robust cash collections. Cash and cash equivalents remained exceptionally strong, closing the quarter at ₹28,791 million ($300.4 million).

06

Total Contract Value (TCV) deal wins for the quarter aggregated to $116 million, comprising $47 million in new deal wins and $69 million in contract renewals. Cumulative deal wins for the first half of fiscal year 2027 reached $285 million, representing a 15% increase year-on-year.

07

In recognition of its technical capabilities, Birlasoft attained notable ecosystem validations during the quarter, including being named an OpenAI Select Partner and earning the AWS AI Services competency, which underpinned several strategic artificial intelligence and cloud modernization wins.
