DCM Shriram International's consolidated Q1 FY27 revenue from operations came in at ₹108.59 Cr, down 4.9% year-on-year from ₹114.22 Cr, while consolidated PAT collapsed to ₹0.03 Cr from ₹3.22 Cr a year earlier — a near-total profit wipeout even though the company stayed marginally in the black. Standalone PAT was effectively nil (₹0.00 Cr, below the company's own rounding threshold) on a PBT of ₹2.07 Cr that was almost entirely consumed by ₹2.07 Cr of tax expense. Operating profitability (PBT before exceptional items) fell to ₹2.07 Cr from ₹4.09 Cr YoY, a margin compression to roughly 1.9% of revenue from about 3.5% — cost lines (materials, employee costs, other expenses) stayed broadly proportionate to revenue, so the squeeze sits mainly in the thinner absolute operating surplus on lower volumes rather than one identifiable cost blowout. Sequentially the company swung from a ₹18.22 Cr consolidated net loss in Q4 FY26 to breakeven, but that prior-quarter loss was driven entirely by a one-off ₹20.82 Cr stamp-duty exceptional charge on the Kota land transfer under the Composite Scheme of Arrangement — with no such item this quarter, the QoQ 'recovery' is a base-effect artifact, not operating improvement, and revenue was actually down 6.7% QoQ.
Q1 FY-2027 vs prior quarters
No year-ago quarter on record — YoY cells may be blank.
No consensus or analyst estimates could be located for this stock — DCM Shriram International is a recently demerged, thinly covered small-cap (industrial fibres business spun out of DCM Shriram Industries via NCLT scheme effective FY26), so vsStreet is unknown. The company has issued no formal guidance for this quarter in our records or in public sources, so vsGuidance is also unknown. Comparability with the year-ago quarter needs a caveat: the 30 June 2025 column in this filing is a post-scheme restated figure — the company discloses separately that the originally reported pre-scheme Q1 FY26 results showed nil total income and a ₹1.18 Cr loss, so the 'YoY' comparison reflects a scheme-adjusted base rather than what was actually reported at the time. Consolidated results include a ₹0.04 Cr net profit contribution from associate DCM Hyundai Ltd, which is now a modest net positive rather than a drag. Management's press release was not available for this filing beyond the standard board-meeting intimation, so no additional framing from the company could be incorporated. Shareholding-record events this quarter (multiple promoter-family stake movements — Alok Shriram, Suman Bansi Dhar/Dhar, Urvashi Tilakdhar, Madhav Bansidhar Shriram) look like intra-family reallocation tied to the post-demerger share structure rather than open-market trades, and don't have a direct read-through to this quarter's operating numbers.
The stock went into the print at ₹81.05, down 3% over the past month of trading.
