Jindal Worldwide Q2 FY27 Profit Rises 55.9% to ₹18.57 Crore

Jindal Worldwide Ltd reported consolidated net profit of ₹18.57 crore in Q2 FY27, up 55.9% from ₹11.91 crore a year earlier, while total income increased 3.8% to ₹595.38 crore. The result shows profit growth outpacing income growth in the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

What did Jindal Worldwide report for Q2 FY27?

Jindal Worldwide reported consolidated total income of ₹595.38 crore and net profit of ₹18.57 crore for the July to September 2026 quarter. The company announced the results on November 5, 2026. Its consolidated basic earnings per share rose to ₹0.19 from ₹0.12 in Q2 FY26.

Income grew from ₹573.70 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. The increase in profit was substantially higher than the growth in income, with consolidated net profit rising by 55.9% year-on-year. The reported figures cover the company and its subsidiaries.

On a standalone basis, Jindal Worldwide recorded total income of ₹617.62 crore and net profit of ₹16.96 crore in Q2 FY27. Standalone income rose 12.0% year-on-year, while standalone profit increased 9.7% from the year-ago quarter.

The company’s reported quarterly performance therefore differed between the consolidated and standalone accounts. Consolidated profit growth was stronger year-on-year, whereas standalone income growth was higher than consolidated income growth.

How did income, operating profit and margins change?

Jindal Worldwide’s revenue was reported at about ₹595 crore for Q2 FY27, compared with about ₹573 crore in Q2 FY26, an increase of 3.8%. Operating profit, or EBITDA, rose 9.7% year-on-year to ₹34 crore from ₹31 crore.

The operating margin improved to 6% from 5% a year earlier, a rise of 1 percentage point. This margin expansion accompanied the higher operating profit despite the relatively modest increase in revenue.

Compared with Q1 FY27, revenue rose 7.2% from ₹555 crore and EBITDA increased 13.3% from ₹30 crore. Operating margin also improved by 1 percentage point sequentially from 5%.

However, profit before tax and net profit declined on a sequential basis. Profit before tax was ₹24 crore, down 40.0% from ₹40 crore in Q1 FY27, while net profit was lower by 40.6% from ₹32 crore in the preceding quarter.

Why did profit growth exceed income growth year-on-year?

Jindal Worldwide’s reported operating profit rose faster than revenue during Q2 FY27, and its operating margin increased by 1 percentage point from the year-ago period. These disclosed movements provide the numerical context for the stronger year-on-year rise in consolidated net profit.

Net profit increased by ₹6.66 crore from ₹11.91 crore in Q2 FY26 to ₹18.57 crore in Q2 FY27. Basic EPS moved in line with profit, rising by ₹0.07 per share to ₹0.19.

The quarterly comparison also shows that year-on-year and sequential trends were not the same. While income, EBITDA and operating margin improved from Q1 FY27, consolidated net profit fell from ₹32.41 crore in the preceding quarter.

That divergence is important when assessing the results. The data confirms an improvement over the September 2025 quarter, but it also shows that the Q2 FY27 consolidated profit was below the immediately preceding quarter’s figure.

What do the standalone numbers show?

Jindal Worldwide’s standalone total income increased to ₹617.62 crore in Q2 FY27, while standalone net profit rose to ₹16.96 crore. Standalone income was up 12.0% year-on-year and 8.5% quarter-on-quarter.

Standalone profit increased 9.7% year-on-year and 14.7% sequentially. Profit before tax on a standalone basis rose 15.0% year-on-year to ₹22.89 crore, according to the reported quarterly figures.

The standalone numbers indicate positive growth in both income and profit against the comparable quarter and the preceding quarter. By contrast, the consolidated statement showed a sequential decline in net profit despite a small quarter-on-quarter increase in total income.

Investors generally review both sets of figures because standalone accounts reflect the listed entity’s own performance, while consolidated accounts include subsidiaries. The reported differences between the two statements underline the relevance of the group-level contribution in quarterly comparisons.

How does the result matter for investors?

Jindal Worldwide’s Q2 FY27 figures show that consolidated profitability improved faster than income on a year-on-year basis. The 55.9% increase in net profit, alongside a 3.8% rise in total income and a 1 percentage point operating-margin improvement, are the central reported changes for the September quarter.

At the same time, the sequential decline in consolidated PAT and EPS provides an additional comparison point for investors. Consolidated net profit was ₹13.84 crore lower than Q1 FY27, while EPS declined from ₹0.32 to ₹0.19.

The company’s operating data showed EBITDA growth both year-on-year and sequentially. But the reported profit before tax and PAT figures were lower than Q1 FY27, making it necessary to distinguish between operating performance and bottom-line movement when reading the quarterly release.

No forward financial target, capital-allocation decision, or management outlook was disclosed in the provided results information. As a result, the available assessment is limited to the reported income, operating-profit, margin, net-profit and EPS comparisons.

Conclusion

Jindal Worldwide delivered higher consolidated income and a sharper rise in year-on-year net profit in Q2 FY27. Total income reached ₹595.38 crore, net profit reached ₹18.57 crore, and operating margin improved to 6%, while standalone income and profit also increased from the year-ago period.

The next results update will be relevant for tracking whether the year-on-year improvement in operating margin and consolidated profit is sustained. Investors can also watch the gap between standalone and consolidated performance, particularly after consolidated PAT declined sequentially from ₹32.41 crore in Q1 FY27.
