Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Lumax Auto Technologies delivered a robust performance in the second quarter of fiscal 2027, crossing the Rs 1,500 crore quarterly revenue threshold for the first time in its operating history.
Consolidated revenue from operations expanded sequentially to Rs 1,555.51 crore from Rs 1,363.62 crore in the preceding quarter, representing a 14.07 percent quarter-on-quarter increase. Company disclosures highlight a 35 percent year-on-year growth rate compared to Rs 1,156 crore reported in Q2 FY26.
Profitability outpaced top-line expansion on a year-on-year basis, driven by scale economies, favorable product mix, and ongoing operational efficiency initiatives across manufacturing units.
EBITDA including other income was reported at Rs 228 crore for Q2 FY27 compared to Rs 170 crore in Q2 FY26, maintaining an EBITDA margin of 14.7 percent which remained stable year-on-year though softening slightly from 15.1 percent in Q1 FY27.
Basic earnings per share rose to Rs 15.48 for the quarter, compared to Rs 12.71 in Q1 FY27 and Rs 9.81 in Q2 FY26, underscoring enhanced per-share earnings power.
The broader operating environment benefited from overall vehicle production growth across segments—led by commercial vehicles up 34 percent, passenger vehicles up 25 percent, three-wheelers up 25 percent, and two-wheelers up 17 percent—supported by improved affordability following GST 2.0 changes.
Management noted that rising input costs, including crude-linked polymer prices, elevated lead times, electronic component expenses, freight charges, and currency depreciation, remain important variables to monitor moving forward.

Current quarter vs the available comparable
| Metric | Q2 FY27 | Previous quarter |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue from operations | ₹1,555.51 Cr | ₹1,363.62 Cr |
| Total income | ₹1,574.22 Cr | ₹1,378.78 Cr |
| Profit before tax | ₹154.24 Cr | ₹132.05 Cr |

Financial interpretation
What the reported numbers mean
Profit after tax represented 7.5% 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 9.9% 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 ₹18.71 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.
04 · Why it moved
Why the quarter looked the way it did
What drove revenue
Revenue crossed the Rs 1,500 crore milestone to reach Rs 1,555.51 crore, supported by growing customer wallet share and strong industry demand across vehicle categories.
Increasing adoption of advanced technologies and higher content per vehicle contributed to value realization alongside unit volume growth.
Industry production growth in passenger vehicles (25%), two-wheelers (17%), three-wheelers (25%), and commercial vehicles (34%) provided a favorable operating backdrop.
What drove margins
EBITDA margin stood at 14.7 percent in Q2 FY27, matching the 14.7 percent level of Q2 FY26 and easing slightly from 15.1 percent in Q1 FY27.
Margins absorbed upward pressure from crude-linked polymer prices, electronic component lead times, freight expenses, and rupee depreciation, partially offset by OEM cost recoveries and internal operating efficiencies.
Higher contribution from advanced plastics and value-added sub-systems supported half-year EBITDA margin expansion of approximately 90 basis points year-on-year to 14.9 percent.
