In Q2 FY26, Kalpataru Ltd reported consolidated revenue from operations of ₹793.8 crore, a 56.8% year-on-year increase. However, net profit sharply declined by 81.9% to ₹5.4 crore due to rising expenses. Despite revenue growth, the company faced significant margin pressures in the quarter.
Kalpataru Ltd posted robust revenue growth in the September quarter of FY26, with consolidated revenue reaching ₹793.8 crore, up 56.8% compared to the same quarter last year. The impressive top-line performance was driven by strong pre-sales growth, which rose 19% year-on-year to ₹1,329 crore, and collections increased 37% to ₹1,162 crore. This indicates strong demand and positive sales momentum for the company.
However, the profitability picture was less encouraging. Net profit for the quarter stood at ₹5.4 crore, down 81.9% year-on-year, weighed down by a sharp 66.5% rise in total expenses to ₹810.18 crore. The increase in costs, driven by higher cost of sales and operational expenses, squeezed margins, leading to the profit drop despite higher sales.
Kalpataru's financial performance showed a mixed trend with healthy revenue growth overshadowed by margin pressures. For the first half of FY26, revenue grew 19.3% to ₹1,237 crore, but the company posted a loss of ₹44 crore. The company targets pre-sales of ₹7,000 crore and collections of ₹5,700 crore for the full fiscal year.
