S.J.S. Enterprises Ltd

S.J.S. Enterprises Ltd reported its unaudited financial results for Q1 FY2027, showcasing record quarterly revenue of ₹2,610.0 million, a 24.5% year-on-year increase. EBITDA grew by 36.2% YoY to ₹799.6 million, with margins expanding to 30.0%. Profit After Tax (PAT) surged by 115.0% YoY to ₹744.2 million. This growth was significantly boosted by a one-time post-tax gain of ₹241.7 million from the sale of an old facility. Excluding this gain, normalized PAT grew 45.2% YoY to ₹502.5 million, achieving the highest quarterly margin since listing. The company also reported its 27th consecutive quarter of outperforming the automotive industry, with automotive business revenue up 32.4% YoY. Key wins from leading OEMs and the commencement of a new manufacturing facility in Pune were also highlighted.

S.J.S. Enterprises Limited's Board of Directors met on August 6, 2026, to approve the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The board also approved the acquisition of the remaining equity shares in Walter Pack Automotive Products India Private Limited, which will make it a wholly-owned subsidiary. Additionally, the company will incorporate a new wholly-owned subsidiary with an investment of up to ₹10 crore and approved the shifting of its registered office from Karnataka to Maharashtra, subject to member and regulatory approvals.

S.J.S. Enterprises posted consolidated revenue of ₹260.99 Cr (+24.5% YoY, +0.3% QoQ) and PAT of ₹74.42 Cr (+115.0% YoY, +52.3% QoQ) for Q1 FY27. The PAT print is flattered by a ₹27.95 Cr exceptional gain on the sale of a Bengaluru freehold land parcel for ₹58.5 Cr (announced June 15); stripping that one-off, adjusted PAT is ~₹46.5 Cr, up a steadier 34.2% YoY but down 4.9% QoQ, since Q4 FY26 carried no comparable one-off. Basic EPS was ₹23.18 (reported) against ₹15.16 in Q4 FY26 and ₹11.03 a year ago. No consensus/Street preview for this specific quarter turned up in search, so the print cannot be graded against a published estimate — vsStreet is unknown rather than assumed. The more durable story is margins: operating margin (EBITDA/revenue, computed pre-exceptional) expanded to 30.6%, up from 28.7% in Q4 FY26 and 26.7% a year ago — running ahead of management's own 27-28% long-term EBITDA-margin guidance given on the May concall, and consistent with the mix/premiumization drivers management cited then. Adjusted net margin (ex the land-sale gain) was 17.8%, roughly flat versus 18.4% in Q4 FY26 and up from 16.3% YoY. Reported NPM of 28.5% is a one-off-inflated number and shouldn't be read as the underlying margin. On revenue, management had guided FY27 growth to outperform the auto industry by 1.5-2x on an order book covering over 85% of forecast; +24.5% YoY consolidated growth is consistent with that framing though the underlying industry growth rate to benchmark against wasn't independently verified here. Consolidated growth outpaced standalone (+17.6% YoY, ₹145.53 Cr), a >3%-point divergence pointing to subsidiaries SJS Decoplast and Walter Pack (WPI) growing faster than the parent. Corporate action this quarter ties directly into that guidance: the board approved buying the remaining 9.9% of WPI (34,661 shares, ₹19.9 Cr) from Roy Mathew to make it wholly owned, and approved a new wholly-owned subsidiary (up to ₹10 Cr investment) to manufacture automotive displays — the vehicle for the BOE partnership management said would start contributing business in early FY28. Separately, SJS Decoplast announced a ₹100 Cr capacity expansion (13,243 sq ft/day) on August 4, consistent with the capacity-expansion plank of FY27 guidance, and the board declared a ₹3.50/share dividend (₹11.2 Cr) at the July 4 AGM. No management press release/commentary was available in the source set to cross-check against these numbers. Going into Q2, the readthrough is a real margin beat layered under an inflated headline PAT number — investors should anchor on the ~34% adjusted PAT growth and the 30.6% OPM, not the +115% reported figure, when judging whether the quarter met the guidance bar management set in May.
