Indo Tech Transformers reported standalone revenue of ₹227.89 Cr for Q1 FY27 (quarter ended June 30, 2026), up 39.0% year-on-year from ₹163.93 Cr, with net profit up 34.1% YoY to ₹25.70 Cr (EPS ₹24.20 vs ₹18.05) from ₹19.17 Cr a year ago. Sequentially revenue was down 4.6% from a seasonally strong Q4 FY26 (₹238.99 Cr) while PAT was up 7.4% QoQ (₹23.92 Cr) — a QoQ profit rise on falling revenue that is a base-quarter/mix artifact and not the headline; the YoY comparison is the one that matters and it shows strong volume-led growth with a mild margin give-back.
Q1 FY-2027 vs prior quarters
Operating margin came in at 13.95% versus 14.64% a year ago and net margin at 11.05% versus 11.51% YoY (both improved sequentially from 13.54% and 9.95% in Q4 FY26). The YoY compression traces to raw material cost: cost of materials consumed net of the change in finished-goods/WIP inventory rose to 73.3% of revenue from 70.7% a year ago, more than offsetting operating leverage gains elsewhere — employee costs fell to 4.5% of revenue from 5.2%, and other expenses to 8.3% from 9.5%. The effective tax rate also crept up to 25.2% from 23.3% YoY, which is why PAT growth (34.1%) trailed PBT growth (37.4%). A sharp rise in other income, to ₹4.80 Cr from ₹2.64 Cr YoY (and just ₹1.31 Cr in Q4), further cushioned the bottom line. There are no exceptional items in the statement, so no raw-vs-adjusted distinction applies this quarter.
For context: this is the highest quarterly PAT in the last 6 quarters on our records.
There is no analyst consensus or brokerage preview available for this quarter — the stock has thin sell-side coverage and no preview was found — so the print cannot be graded against Street numbers (vsStreet: unknown). Management has issued no formal guidance in our records or in public sources, so the result also can't be graded against a prior outlook. On the operating side, the company entered the 400 kV transformer segment this quarter after NTPC approval and booked a ₹91.26 Cr multi-transformer order tied to NTPC projects — new segment, not yet reflected at scale in this quarter's numbers. The Board also approved a ₹360 Cr capex plan to lift manufacturing capacity to 50,000 MVA by FY28-29 from the current base, alongside the FY26 final dividend recommendation of 100% (₹10/share) and an ESOP 2026 plan; depreciation of ₹174 Cr (lakh) is already up 55% YoY, an early signal of the capex cycle beginning to bite. Promoter-group entity Shirdi Sai Electricals sold roughly 5 lakh shares in late June/early July, ahead of results. No standalone management press release commentary was available in the extracted filing to cross-check against the numbers.
W1
Raw material cost ratio — at 73.3% of revenue this quarter (up from 70.7% YoY) — needs to stabilise or reverse for OPM to recover toward last year's 14.64%
W2
400 kV order execution and revenue contribution from the ₹91.26 Cr NTPC-linked order and the broader 400 kV entry over the next few quarters
W3
Depreciation/finance-cost ramp as the ₹360 Cr capex (targeting 50,000 MVA capacity by FY28-29) begins capitalising — depreciation already up 55% YoY this quarter
