Atlanta Electricals Ltd Q2 FY27 Results

Atlanta Electricals' consolidated PAT rose 28.0% YoY to ₹32.13 Cr on revenue up 23.1% YoY to ₹390.08 Cr — solid growth, but both decelerated sharply from Q1 FY27 (PAT -31.4% QoQ, revenue -16.3% QoQ), consistent with transformer-industry order-execution timing rather than classic retail-style seasonality. No Q2-specific brokerage estimate was found to benchmark the print against street consensus; the only reference point is Q1 FY27, where Motilal Oswal's PAT estimate was beaten by 34% and the brokerage retained Buy with a ₹1,950 target built on FY27 consensus EPS near ₹36.90 — a bar this quarter's margin miss tests.

On guidance, management's own 16–17.5% EBITDA-margin band (from the July concall) was missed: operating margin (PBT less other income, plus finance cost and depreciation, over revenue) came in at 15.3% this quarter, down from 17.3% a year ago and 16.5% last quarter. The drag sits squarely on raw materials — cost of materials consumed, adjusted for the inventory swing, rose to 73.4% of revenue from 69.2% a year earlier, pointing to CRGO steel/copper input-cost pressure for a pure-play transformer manufacturer. Partly offsetting that, net margin actually expanded YoY to 8.2% (from 7.9%) because finance cost fell 36% YoY to ₹8.45 Cr (₹13.20 Cr) on debt paydown funded by FY26 IPO/QIP proceeds, even as depreciation nearly doubled to ₹10.02 Cr (₹5.51 Cr) as new capacity comes onstream.

The stock went into the print at ₹1,589.2, down 2.8% over the past month of trading.

The standalone-consolidated gap is itself a data point: standalone PAT of ₹39.52 Cr sits ₹7.4 Cr above the consolidated figure because subsidiaries (Atlanta Transformers, AE Components, Atlanta Trafo) are still loss-making while contributing no standalone-level revenue yet — these are the units management has tied to the guided 400kV (meaningful revenue FY28) and 765kV (bidding FY28) ramp, so the current drag is capacity being built ahead of that curve. On the order side, the book stood at ₹3,116.63 Cr as of the Q1 FY27-end disclosure, above the ₹2,400 Cr of ₹3,100 Cr management flagged as FY27-executable, and August added a fresh ₹193.92 Cr APTRANSCO transformer order; the Board approved this result on October 31, 2026 alongside the routine trading-window closure in late September. No standalone management press release accompanies this filing, so there is no company quote to reconcile against the numbers here.
