MUMBAI — Laxmi Organic Industries Limited reported a consolidated revenue from operations of ₹9,683 million for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026, marking a 39.7% increase compared to ₹6,929 million recorded in the same period last year. The specialty chemicals manufacturer achieved a 216.5% jump in consolidated profit after tax (PAT) to ₹677.2 million, up from ₹214 million in Q1 FY26, driven by higher realizations and volume-led growth across its business portfolio.
