What were KSH International’s six-month results?

KSH International reported total income from operations of Rs 2,497.62 crore for the six months ended September 30, 2026, compared with Rs 1,278.31 crore in the corresponding six months ended September 30, 2025. The increase of Rs 1,219.31 crore was about 95%, which was larger than the 85% year-on-year increase recorded in the September quarter alone.

Profit after tax for the six-month period was Rs 90.17 crore, up from Rs 52.27 crore in the prior-year period. That represented an increase of Rs 37.90 crore, or about 73%.

Basic EPS for the six months was Rs 13.31, compared with Rs 9.20 in the corresponding 2025 period, while diluted EPS was Rs 13.29 compared with Rs 9.20. The six-month profit before tax before exceptional or extraordinary items was Rs 120.75 crore, identical to reported profit before tax after those items. This mirrored the September-quarter treatment.

How do the first-half figures compare with the last full year?

KSH International’s income for the six months ended September 30, 2026 equalled about 80% of the Rs 3,128.38 crore reported for the audited year ended March 31, 2026. First-half profit after tax of Rs 90.17 crore equalled about 82% of the Rs 110.13 crore recorded for that full year. The filing does not provide a forecast for the remaining six months.

The audited year ended March 31, 2026 reported profit before tax before exceptional or extraordinary items of Rs 147.55 crore and profit before tax after those items of Rs 145.92 crore. The Rs 1.64 crore difference contrasts with the September 2026 quarter and six-month period, when the two reported pre-tax profit measures were equal at Rs 63.86 crore and Rs 120.75 crore, respectively.

Paid-up equity share capital was Rs 33.88 crore at September 30, 2026, unchanged from June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026. It was higher than Rs 28.41 crore at September 30, 2025. Reserves excluding revaluation reserve stood at Rs 774.22 crore in the audited March 31, 2026 balance sheet; the quarterly extract does not report a later reserves figure.

How were KSH International’s September results reviewed?

KSH International’s audit committee reviewed and recommended the unaudited results for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 2026, and the board approved them on November 4, 2026. The filing says the statutory auditors conducted a limited review of the results, rather than describing them as audited financial statements.

The company filed the detailed results under Regulation 33 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India, or SEBI, Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015. The extract provides income, profit, comprehensive income, share capital, reserves and EPS, but gives no segment-level revenue, debt, cash-flow, order-book or management-guidance figures for the period after September 30, 2026.

Conclusion

KSH International’s reported September-quarter performance combined 85% year-on-year income growth with 62% growth in profit after tax. Sequentially, income rose from Rs 1,172.42 crore in the June 2026 quarter to Rs 1,325.20 crore in the September quarter, while profit after tax increased from Rs 42.22 crore to Rs 47.95 crore. The six-month figures showed income of Rs 2,497.62 crore and profit after tax of Rs 90.17 crore.

The filing provides no management target, operating outlook or scheduled future event beyond the September 30, 2026 reporting period. The next point to watch is whether subsequent disclosures provide the missing segment, cash-flow, debt and guidance data, and whether reported income and profit extend the first-half trajectory against the audited March 31, 2026 full-year base.
