Growth was underpinned by broad-based demand, highlighted by a 13% increase in sales to domestic OE customers led by passenger vehicles and farm tractors, a 24% surge in international customer sales driven by steering products, and a 28% jump in the Indian aftermarket.
Profitability expanded significantly faster than top-line growth. Profit after tax (PAT) surged by 62.44% year-on-year to INR 30.10 crores compared to INR 18.53 crores in Q1 FY26.
Earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter rose correspondingly to INR 10.89 compared to INR 6.70 in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

Financial interpretation
What the reported numbers mean
Profit after tax represented 2.9% 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 3.9% 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 ₹8.99 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.
