Revenue grew a strong 26.5% YoY but OPM contracted from 15.2% to 13.5% and NPM from 5.3% to 4.9%, so PAT growth (16.7%) lagged core revenue growth on margin compression, capping this below a standout quarter.

Management Comments
Harpreet Singh Nibber
I am pleased to report a strong start to FY27, with our performance during the first quarter reflecting continued momentum across our business. Our revenue from operations stood at ₹144.97 crore, representing a healthy 26.5% year-on-year growth and a 4.7% sequential increase. Margins were impacted by higher raw-material prices from March and June, along with increased costs of chemicals and industrial gases. We have already received partial customer compensation and expect the remaining impact to be substantially recovered in the coming quarter, supporting margin normalization. Importantly, the momentum has continued into the current quarter. We achieved our highest-ever monthly dispatch in July 2026 at approximately 4,800 metric tonnes. This is a significant operational milestone for us and reflects the increasing scale of our business as well as our ability to execute efficiently against customer requirements. In addition, we have received an order from KION USA. We expect to submit samples during August, following which regular production is expected to commence from November 2026, subject to the completion of the customer's qualification and approval process. We see this as an important opportunity to further strengthen our presence in international markets and build relationships with global customers. Alongside these new international opportunities, we continue to receive repeat and incremental orders from our established customers. During the period, we received orders from customers including Mahindra & Mahindra Swaraj and CNH Industrial. These repeat orders demonstrate the continued confidence of our customers in our manufacturing capabilities, quality and delivery performance. Another important area of progress has been our LFC plant. Over the past three years, we have successfully developed and established the required technology and have achieved encouraging results. With the technology now successfully developed and the process stabilized, our focus is on scaling up Pritika Auto Industries Limited utilization. We expect the LFC plant to achieve approximately 65% to 70% capacity utilization by the end of this year. As utilization improves, we expect the plant to make a progressively larger contribution to our overall business and profitability.
