Nahar Spinning Q1 FY27: standalone PAT jumps 338% YoY to ₹69.9 Cr as input costs ease
Nahar Spinning Mills' standalone PAT for Q1 FY27 (quarter ended 30 June 2026) came in at ₹69.88 Cr, up 337.8% YoY from ₹15.96 Cr and up 198.4% QoQ from ₹23.42 Cr, on revenue from operations of ₹966.10 Cr (+17.9% YoY, +5.4% QoQ). EPS rose to ₹19.38 from ₹4.43 a year ago and ₹6.45 the prior quarter. There is no formal analyst/street coverage or consensus estimate available for this stock, and neither our records nor a web search turned up any prior management guidance or outlook — so the print cannot be graded against a street or company-set bar; it is assessed here purely on its own trajectory.
The entire move is margin-driven, not one-off: cost of materials consumed fell to 56.9% of revenue this quarter versus 66.9% a year ago and roughly flat sequentially (56.9% vs Q4 FY26's 56.9%), lifting operating margin to ~13.2% from 7.05% YoY and 6.43% QoQ, and net margin to 7.23% from 1.95% YoY and 2.54% QoQ. Exceptional items were nil in both the current and comparison periods, so no adjustment is needed — the reported and underlying growth are the same number. Tax expense rose to ₹23.50 Cr, pushing the effective tax rate to ~25.2% from ~19.4% a year ago, which partly offset the pre-tax profit gain.
The result was released alongside board actions rather than a separate press release: the Board re-appointed Dinesh Oswal as Managing Director for a further 5 years from 1 January 2027, re-appointed two independent directors for a second 5-year term, and fixed the 46th AGM for 25 September 2026 with a 4 September 2026 record date for the FY26 dividend of ₹1/share. None of these bear directly on the quarter's operating numbers. Going into Q2 FY27, the key question is whether the sub-57% raw-material-cost ratio — the swing factor behind this quarter's margin jump — holds as input (cotton/yarn) prices move, since management has not put any formal outlook on record to anchor expectations.
