Graphite India Limited Q2 FY27 Profit Is Rs 128 Crore

Graphite India Limited reported standalone net profit of Rs 128 crore for Q2 FY27 ended September 30, 2026, on revenue from operations of Rs 806 crore. The result matters because quarterly profit was lower than the Rs 157 crore reported in Q1 FY27, despite a sequential increase in revenue.

What did Graphite India report for Q2 FY27?

Graphite India reported unaudited standalone net profit of Rs 128 crore for the July-September 2026 quarter. Revenue from operations stood at Rs 806 crore, compared with Rs 765 crore in the preceding quarter, according to the financial-results summary.

Basic earnings per share, after exceptional items, was Rs 6.56 for Q2 FY27. The company reported standalone total income of Rs 905 crore for the quarter, compared with Rs 872 crore in the corresponding quarter a year earlier.

The reported figures distinguish between revenue from operations and total income. Revenue from operations represents the core sales measure disclosed in the results, while total income includes other income in addition to operating revenue.

Why did Graphite India make the results disclosure?

Graphite India made the disclosure after its board approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results on November 3, 2026. The company filed the results with BSE as part of its regular listed-company disclosure requirements.

The filing covers the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026. It was accompanied by the statutory auditors' limited review report for the reported financial statements.

No detailed management commentary on the quarterly movement was provided in the supplied filing summary. The disclosed information therefore establishes the reported financial outcome, including revenue, profit and earnings per share, rather than attributing the profit change to specific cost, pricing or volume factors.

How did Graphite India's profit and revenue move during the half year?

Graphite India's standalone net profit for H1 FY27 was Rs 285 crore, compared with Rs 299 crore in H1 FY26. Revenue from operations for the six-month period was Rs 1,571 crore, while the Graphite and Carbon segment contributed revenue of Rs 1,335 crore.

The quarter's standalone profit of Rs 128 crore was below the Rs 157 crore reported for Q1 FY27. At the same time, the Q2 revenue-from-operations figure of Rs 806 crore was higher than the Rs 765 crore cited for Q1 FY27 in the supplied result summary.

The company also reported consolidated revenue from operations of Rs 826 crore for Q2 FY27, up 13.3% year on year. Consolidated net profit was Rs 96 crore, up 24.7% from the corresponding quarter of the prior year.

What do the results mean for Graphite India investors?

Graphite India's results show a difference between the standalone and consolidated reporting bases, which investors need to consider when comparing figures. The standalone result recorded Rs 128 crore of quarterly net profit, while the consolidated result recorded Rs 96 crore, reflecting the inclusion of the group's consolidated accounts.

For investors, the most immediate development is that standalone revenue increased sequentially in the supplied quarterly comparison while standalone profit declined from Q1 FY27. The results summary does not provide a specific explanation for that movement, so no conclusion on margins, costs or product pricing can be drawn from the disclosed figures alone.

The supplied market update stated that Graphite India shares were down 0.6% following the result announcement. This market movement should be viewed alongside the company's reported earnings, rather than as a measure of the underlying operating performance by itself.

How does the result fit Graphite India's recent reporting trend?

Graphite India's prior reported Q1 FY27 update cited revenue of Rs 842 crore, operating profit of Rs 144 crore and net profit of Rs 171 crore on the referenced reporting basis. It also cited an operating margin of 17.1% for that quarter.

The company has previously identified electrode capacity expansion and synthetic graphite anode materials as strategic areas. However, the Q2 FY27 disclosure supplied here does not provide a fresh update on capital expenditure, capacity additions or the financial contribution of those initiatives.

The H1 FY27 figures provide a broader view of the business over the first six months of the financial year. Standalone profit of Rs 285 crore was lower than Rs 299 crore a year earlier, while the disclosed H1 revenue from operations was Rs 1,571 crore.

Conclusion

Graphite India Limited's Q2 FY27 filing reported standalone profit of Rs 128 crore and revenue from operations of Rs 806 crore. The release also showed H1 FY27 standalone profit of Rs 285 crore, alongside consolidated quarterly revenue of Rs 826 crore and consolidated profit of Rs 96 crore.

Investors will watch subsequent company disclosures for management's assessment of revenue, profitability and the electrode and synthetic graphite anode materials strategy. The supplied results disclosure does not specify a new financial target, operational timetable or unresolved issue beyond the reported quarterly and half-year financial data.
