Arvind Ltd has released its Integrated Annual Report for FY 2025-26, announcing a strong financial performance despite a volatile global trade environment. Consolidated revenues surpassed ₹9,300 crores, with EBITDA exceeding ₹1,000 crores for the first time. The company also reported improved margins, PAT growth, reduced net debt, and strengthened return ratios. Key business segments, Textile and Garmenting, showed robust performance, with Garmenting crossing ₹2,000 crores in revenue. A significant strategic move was the acquisition of Dalco-GFT by Arvind Advanced Materials Limited, marking entry into the global technical textiles market. The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is scheduled for September 22, 2026, with remote e-voting available from September 19-21, 2026.

Arvind Limited has entered into new Power Transfer Agreements (PTA) and Share Subscription and Shareholders' Agreements (SSHA) with Torrent Urja 12 Private Limited (TU12) and Torrent Urja 21 Private Limited (TU21). This follows the termination of a previous agreement with Torrent Urja 28 Private Limited (TU28) due to capacity reallocation. Arvind will acquire 13.30% equity in TU12 and 26.60% in TU21. The company will invest up to ₹3.47 Crores in TU12 for its proportionate share of capacity. The objective is to offtake electricity generated from these hybrid renewable power projects as a captive user, aiming for significant financial and commercial benefits. Both TU12 and TU21 are incorporated to set up Hybrid Power Projects in Gujarat, with TU12 incorporated on April 18, 2023, and TU21 on August 5, 2024. Neither entity has reported turnover as of the disclosure date.

No equity was infused in TU28. Concurrently, Arvind has entered into new agreements with Torrent Urja 12 Private Limited (TU12) and Torrent Urja 21 Private Limited (TU21) to procure renewable power. The company will acquire 13.30% equity in TU12 for up to ₹3.47 Crores and 26.60% equity in TU21 for up to ₹17.33 Crores, aiming to offtake electricity generated from these hybrid power projects in Gujarat.

Arvind Limited has communicated to its shareholders regarding Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on dividend payments. The Board of Directors recommended a final dividend of ₹4.50 per equity share for FY 2025-26, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. The company will withhold taxes as per the Income-tax Act, 2025, with rates varying based on shareholder residency and submitted documentation. No tax will be deducted for resident individuals if the total dividend for Tax Year 2026-27 does not exceed ₹10,000. Specific documentation requirements are outlined for different shareholder categories to ensure correct tax treatment.

Arvind Ltd announced that its Nomination and Remuneration Committee (NRC) has approved the grant of 1,25,000 stock options to eligible employees under the AL - Employee Stock Option Scheme - 2021. The options are granted at an exercise price of Rs. 555.65 per share. The vesting schedule is staggered, with portions vesting on August 31, 2028, 2029, and 2030. The scheme is in compliance with SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits Regulations, 2021).

Arvind's consolidated (primary basis) Q1 FY27 revenue rose 25% YoY to ₹2,501 Cr (₹2,006 Cr in Q1 FY26) and EBITDA grew 39% to ₹258 Cr, taking the EBITDA margin to 10.3% from 9.3%. But the bottom line tells a more muted story than the headline suggests: PAT before exceptional items was ₹80 Cr, up 47% YoY as management frames it, yet reported profit for the period (post-exceptional) was ₹57.77 Cr, up just 5.6% from ₹54.70 Cr, after a ₹22.57 Cr net-of-tax one-off tied to the Dalco-GFT acquisition. Profit attributable to owners of the parent — the number EPS is built on — was ₹53.45 Cr, barely changed from ₹53.24 Cr a year ago (+0.4%), which is why basic EPS moved only from ₹2.03 to ₹2.04. The company is not loss-making at any level. Growth was broad-based but uneven at the segment level. Textiles revenue rose 13% to ₹1,735 Cr on record demand — denim volumes hit a 16-quarter high of 17.5 Mn metres (+34%) and woven volumes rose 7% to 31.2 Mn metres despite the seasonally weak quarter — but textile EBITDA margin actually compressed to 8.0% from 8.4% on ~₹19 Cr of raw-material inflation. Garmenting volumes crossed 11 Mn pieces for the first time (+13%), yet revenue grew only 3% to ₹497 Cr as a mix shift toward value-segment products diluted realizations. Advanced Materials was the standout, up 85% to ₹650 Cr (India business alone +40% to ₹493 Cr) at a 15% margin, boosted by the newly consolidated Dalco-GFT (61% stake, USA), which contributed ₹157 Cr revenue and ₹24 Cr EBITDA (15.1% margin) for its 1.8 months in the quarter — a full-quarter run-rate of ₹244 Cr/₹40 Cr at 16.3% margin. Against management's own prior guidance (May-2026 concall) of double-digit FY27 growth, high-double-digit AMB growth, mid-teen Garments growth, H1 margin pressure easing in H2, and ₹450-500 Cr FY27 capex, Arvind beat on revenue and AMB growth and confirmed the flagged H1 margin pressure in textiles, but missed the mid-teen Garments revenue target outright (delivered 3% despite 13% volume growth). Against our pre-result preview — revenue ₹2,500-2,600 Cr, EBITDA margin ~12.8-13%, PAT growth 12-15% YoY — the print landed at the very bottom of the revenue range (met), but missed meaningfully on margin (10.3% actual vs ~12.8-13% expected) and on profit growth once measured on the reported/attributable basis (+0.4% vs 12-15% guided), even though the pre-exceptional, company-defined PAT growth of 47% would have beaten it. The quarter also saw a ₹500 Cr QIP close on 5-Aug-2026 (99 lakh shares at ₹505), with proceeds earmarked for debt reduction, even as net debt rose to ₹2,158 Cr from ₹1,172 Cr at Mar-26 on Dalco-GFT acquisition financing (a US$110 Mn loan added ₹10.6 Cr of incremental interest this quarter). Management's press release headlines "record revenue and EBITDA growth of 25% and 39%" and a 47% PAT increase — both accurate on the company's pre-exceptional framing — but does not foreground that the acquisition-related one-off and a near-tripling of minority interest (₹4.32 Cr vs ₹1.46 Cr YoY, reflecting Dalco-GFT's ~39% non-controlling stake) together kept owners' reported profit essentially flat. Management expects raw-material prices to soften from August-September 2026 and reiterated the ₹450-500 Cr FY27 capex plan (₹98 Cr spent in Q1), but issued no formal quantitative guidance for Q2 beyond qualitative commentary on resilient order books and the UK-India FTA as a demand tailwind.
