ARIHANT FOUNDATIONS & HOUSING LTD.-$ Q2 FY27 Results

Arihant Foundations & Housing's consolidated (group) PAT came in at ₹22.92 Cr for Q2 FY27, up 14.4% YoY (₹20.04 Cr) on revenue of ₹127.19 Cr, up 44.9% YoY (₹87.80 Cr) — a seasonally-adjusted real estate business, so the sequential read (revenue -5.2% and PAT -4.9% versus Q1 FY27's ₹134.24 Cr / ₹24.09 Cr) is secondary to the YoY trend. The headline divergence is that profit grew at less than a third the pace of revenue: net profit margin fell to 16.9% of total income from 22.2% a year ago and 17.8% last quarter, even though the operating margin actually held up (OPM ~27.9% this quarter vs ~27.3% YoY and ~27.1% QoQ on an EBITDA basis). The squeeze sits below the operating line: finance costs jumped to ₹13.15 Cr from ₹1.05 Cr a year ago, tracking non-current borrowings that nearly doubled to ₹700.46 Cr as of 30-Sep-26 from ₹326.13 Cr at FY26-end — consistent with the company allotting a second ₹40 Cr NCD tranche on 6th November 2026, days before this result.

There is no analyst coverage or consensus estimate on record for this filing — a web search returned Q2 FY27 numbers for a different, similarly-named company (Arihant Superstructures Ltd) that do not apply here, so vsStreet is unknown rather than guessed. Management has also issued no formal guidance or outlook on record, so the print cannot be graded against a prior company target either; this is a from-the-numbers-only read. Standalone (parent-only) results tell a materially different story than the consolidated group figures: standalone revenue grew just 9.0% YoY (₹65.64 Cr vs ₹60.22 Cr) while standalone PAT fell 76% YoY to ₹0.96 Cr (from ₹4.04 Cr) — the growth and profitability here are concentrated in the company's subsidiaries and joint venture (13 entities are consolidated, including Arihant Griha, Vaikunt Housing, Varenya Constructions and others), not in the parent itself. No management press release accompanies this filing to corroborate or contest the print.

The stock went into the print at ₹899.95, down 3.2% over the past month of trading.

For context: this is the second-highest quarterly PAT of the last 6 quarters.

Going into Q3, the trajectory of leverage and finance costs is the swing factor for margins: the NCD-funded borrowing base that has already pushed non-current debt to ₹700.46 Cr will determine whether NPM keeps compressing from the current 16.9%, even if topline growth (still +44.9% YoY) persists.
