JK Tyre Q2 FY27 Results Date: Key Q1 Numbers 2026

What investors are watching on 23 October 2026

JK Tyre & Industries Ltd has scheduled a Board of Directors meeting for 23 October 2026 to consider and approve unaudited financial results for Q2 and the half-year ended 30 September 2026. The company said it will approve both standalone and consolidated results. The intimation was filed with the exchanges under Regulation 30 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements). After the board meeting, the company will disseminate the results to stock exchanges and publish them in newspapers as required under listing rules. The announcement comes after a weak Q1 FY27 on profitability metrics. For market participants, the Q2 print will be assessed against the sharp margin compression seen in Q1. The trading window closure around the result date also adds to near-term focus.

Board meeting agenda and trading window dates

The board meeting on 23 October 2026 is specifically for approving the standalone and consolidated unaudited financial results for the second quarter and half-year ended 30 September 2026. JK Tyre also disclosed that its trading window was closed from 1 October 2026. The company indicated the trading window will reopen on 26 October 2026. These dates were shared as part of its compliance with SEBI regulations. Separately, the company’s “Upcoming Earnings Date” was shown as Q2 FY26-27 on 23 October 2026. Another reference in the data set mentioned an “Upcoming Result Date” of 22 October 2026, but the board meeting intimation is dated for 23 October 2026. Investors typically anchor to the board meeting date for the formal approval and release of results.

Stock price snapshot around the update

Alongside the quarterly results context, JK Tyre’s stock was referenced at ₹309.10 on NSE and ₹309.60 on BSE. These prices provide context for how the market was valuing the company ahead of the scheduled results approval. The numbers also matter because Q2 results can influence sentiment and short-term trading activity, particularly when the previous quarter showed a steep fall in profits. With the trading window closed for insiders until 26 October 2026, market moves during the period are expected to be driven by publicly available information and expectations built from earlier disclosures.

Q1 FY27: revenue held up, profitability fell sharply

For Q1 FY27 (quarter ended 30 June 2026), JK Tyre reported consolidated revenue from operations of ₹3,946.24 crore. This was a quarter-on-quarter decline of 6.56% from ₹4,223.44 crore. On a year-on-year basis, revenue increased 2.00%, and another data point in the same set puts the year-ago comparison revenue at ₹3,868.94 crore. Despite the modest top-line growth, profitability indicators weakened materially. Operating profit in Q1 was ₹258.22 crore, down 47.35% QoQ from ₹490.40 crore, and down 35.79% YoY. PBDT was reported at ₹180.79 crore, down 53.58% QoQ from ₹389.44 crore and down 45.24% YoY.

Net profit, PBT and margin pressure indicators

Net profit for Q1 FY27 was reported at ₹44.09 crore, a 75.22% QoQ drop from ₹177.96 crore and a 73.01% YoY decline versus ₹163.35 crore. Another summary line in the same data set referenced net profit of ₹42 crore, indicating a small mismatch across summaries, while the detailed quarter table cited ₹44.09 crore. Profit before tax (PBT) was given as ₹55.14 crore in the results summary, while another section cited PBT at ₹53.76 crore. Earnings per share (EPS) was reported at ₹1.55 compared with ₹5.74 in the year-ago quarter and ₹6.25 in the immediately preceding quarter. The same dataset also highlighted gross profit of ₹132 crore, down 68.00% QoQ and down 54.06% YoY. These figures collectively point to margin compression as the central issue in Q1.

Cost escalation and the stated reasons in filings

The company attributed the pressure on profits to higher raw material costs, with a reference to the West Asia crisis affecting input prices. Total expenses for the quarter were ₹3,912.75 crore compared with ₹3,695.08 crore in the year-ago period. Costs of materials consumed were reported at ₹3,036.51 crore, up from ₹2,266.69 crore a year earlier. Even as costs rose, the company reported that domestic volumes grew by 25% in both replacement and OE segments during the quarter. This combination of volume growth and weaker margins suggests that input-cost inflation and other operational factors offset volume-led benefits.

Mexico operation cited as a drag in Q1

Another part of the provided information highlighted that the Mexico operation (JK Tornel) weighed on consolidated performance. The segment result before finance costs and tax was stated to have swung to a loss of –₹45.83 crore from –₹4.70 crore a year earlier. The filing attributed this to geopolitical disruption to input availability and industrial relations issues during wage negotiations, which management said have since been resolved. The same section also cited consolidated EBITDA (PBIDT) margin compression to 6.8% with EBITDA of ₹267.64 crore, versus roughly 10.7% a year earlier and 11.6% in the previous quarter. These details frame why consolidated numbers weakened more sharply than the revenue line.

What the upcoming Q2 approval means for the market

The 23 October 2026 board meeting matters because it will provide an updated view on earnings after a quarter where profits fell sharply even as revenue was broadly stable. It will also include half-year numbers for the period ended 30 September 2026, giving investors more context than a single quarter. The trading window closure from 1 October to 26 October 2026 is a standard compliance step, but it also highlights that the company is in a results-sensitive period. In addition, the company’s recent exchange updates include an “Analyst / Investor Meet - Intimation” under Regulation 30, reflecting active engagement around disclosures. Investors are likely to compare any Q2 recovery against Q1’s cost and margin stress.

Background: how prior quarters are being referenced

The dataset also referenced JK Tyre’s Q2 FY26 performance (quarter ended 30 September 2025), when consolidated net profit rose 62.33% year-on-year to ₹226.86 crore on strong revenue, compared with ₹139.75 crore in the corresponding period. A management comment from the same period said domestic markets registered 15% volume growth driven by an uptick across segments. While that period is not directly comparable to the upcoming Q2 FY27 results, it shows that profitability can swing significantly with cost cycles and mix. It also sets a historical benchmark that investors may use when assessing the new results.

Conclusion

JK Tyre’s next key milestone is the 23 October 2026 board meeting to approve unaudited standalone and consolidated results for Q2 and H1 FY27 ended 30 September 2026. The update comes after Q1 FY27 revenue of ₹3,946.24 crore and net profit of ₹44.09 crore, with profitability hit by higher costs and reported pressure in the Mexico operation. The company has also communicated a trading window closure from 1 October 2026, reopening on 26 October 2026. The market will look to the approved results and subsequent exchange filing for clarity on margins, cost trends, and consolidated performance trajectory.
