Symphony Q1 FY27 results: ₹40 crore profit, ₹1 dividend

Board approves June-quarter numbers

Symphony Limited said its Board of Directors approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026. The approval came in a board meeting held on August 4, 2026. The company said the results were prepared under Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 34 on interim financial reporting and comply with Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

The statutory auditor, B S R & Co. LLP, expressed an unmodified conclusion on both the standalone and consolidated financial results. The update puts focus on Symphony’s operating performance in the June quarter and the board’s shareholder payout decision.

Interim dividend announced for FY27

Alongside the results, the board declared a first interim dividend of ₹1 per equity share for FY 2026-27. The equity share has a face value of ₹2, and the company described the dividend as 50% of face value. Symphony said the interim dividend will be paid to shareholders on or before August 31, 2026.

The company also disclosed that the dividend amounts to ₹6.87 crore. A record date of August 11, 2026 was cited for determining eligible shareholders.

Consolidated performance: income rises, profit slips

On an unaudited consolidated basis, Symphony reported total income of ₹391 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with ₹372 crore in the year-ago quarter. Revenue from operations was ₹378 crore versus ₹350 crore a year earlier. Total expenses for the June 2026 quarter were ₹341 crore, up from ₹320 crore in the corresponding quarter last year.

Profit before tax (PBT) stood at ₹50 crore, compared with ₹51 crore in the same quarter of the previous year. Net profit for the period was ₹40 crore, compared with ₹42 crore a year earlier. The company also reported total comprehensive income of ₹42 crore for the quarter, compared with ₹56 crore in the year-ago period, while another result break-up showed other comprehensive income of ₹1 crore and total comprehensive income of ₹41 crore.

EBITDA and margin improvement highlighted

The company’s June-quarter update also flagged a rise in operating profitability measures. EBITDA increased 28% year-on-year to ₹46 crore from ₹36 crore. EBITDA margin expanded to 12.2% from 10.3%, indicating improved operating efficiency during the period.

Net profit, however, declined about 5% year-on-year to ₹40 crore from ₹42 crore, even as revenue from operations rose 8% to ₹378 crore from ₹350 crore.

Standalone results: profit down despite steady income

On a standalone basis, Symphony reported total income of ₹252 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with ₹251 crore in the year-ago quarter. Revenue from operations was ₹241 crore, up from ₹229 crore a year earlier. Total expenses were ₹215 crore, compared with ₹207 crore in the corresponding quarter last year.

Standalone PBT came in at ₹37 crore, compared with ₹49 crore in the year-ago quarter. Net profit for the period was ₹28 crore versus ₹37 crore a year earlier. Standalone EPS (basic and diluted) was reported at ₹4.09, compared with ₹6.08 in another comparison disclosed for the previous year.

Tax and exceptional items snapshot

In the consolidated results for the quarter, the company reported tax expense of ₹10 crore, split equally between current tax of ₹5 crore and deferred tax of ₹5 crore. On a standalone basis, tax expense was ₹9 crore, with current tax of ₹6 crore and deferred tax of ₹3 crore.

Symphony also reported exceptional items of ₹0 for both standalone and consolidated results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Geographic split for consolidated operations

For the quarter, consolidated revenue from operations of ₹378 crore included India revenue of ₹231 crore and revenue from the rest of the world of ₹147 crore. The split provides a clear view of the company’s domestic and overseas contributions in the period.

Balance sheet pointers disclosed

In the standalone disclosure, Symphony reported paid-up equity share capital of ₹14 crore (face value ₹2 per share). Reserves excluding revaluation reserve were reported at ₹266 crore.

Stock reaction and year-to-date context

Symphony shares were reported trading about 0.8% lower at ₹677.50 after the results update. The stock was also described as down more than 26% so far in 2026. A separate market snapshot showed the stock at ₹672.20 with a 1-day move of -1.55%, a 5-day change of -2.27%, and a 1st Jan change of -23.73%.

Key numbers at a glance

Why the update matters

The June-quarter release shows a mixed picture: higher consolidated income and improved EBITDA margin, but a modest decline in net profit year-on-year. For investors, the combination of operating margin expansion and lower profit draws attention to the cost and tax profile across the period, especially with consolidated expenses rising to ₹341 crore.

The interim dividend announcement adds a clear near-term event for shareholders. With a record date of August 11, 2026 and payout expected by August 31, 2026, investors tracking income and corporate actions have defined dates to monitor.

Conclusion

Symphony’s board approval on August 4, 2026 confirmed Q1 FY27 consolidated total income of ₹391 crore and net profit of ₹40 crore, along with a ₹1 per share first interim dividend for FY27. The next key checkpoints for shareholders are the August 11, 2026 record date and the dividend payment timeline ending August 31, 2026.
