WPIL Limited's Q1 revenue rises 32% to Rs 500.54 crore

WPIL Limited reported net sales turnover of Rs 500.54 crore in the June 2026 quarter, up 32.21% from Rs 378.58 crore a year earlier. Reported profit after tax rose 110.95% year on year to Rs 47.76 crore, while the company is scheduled to consider its September-quarter results on October 31, 2026.

How did WPIL Ltd perform in Q1 FY27?

WPIL Ltd recorded total income of Rs 512.44 crore for the quarter ended June 2026, compared with Rs 387.46 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Net sales turnover increased by Rs 121.96 crore year on year, although it was lower than the Rs 511.24 crore reported in the March 2026 quarter.

The profit performance improved more sharply than revenue. Reported PAT stood at Rs 47.76 crore, against Rs 22.64 crore in June 2025. Earnings per share were reported at Rs 3.47, compared with Rs 2.29 in the first quarter of the prior financial year. The quarterly-results data also showed a 1.60% sequential increase in net profit from Rs 47.01 crore in March 2026.

What drove WPIL Ltd's year-on-year profit increase?

WPIL Ltd's higher revenue was accompanied by improved operating profit and EBITDA compared with the year-earlier quarter. Operating profit rose to Rs 75.30 crore from Rs 49.20 crore, while EBITDA increased to Rs 87.21 crore from Rs 58.08 crore. The company’s reported operating margin was 15.0%, 2.0 percentage points higher than a year earlier.

The source material attributed the increase in profit margin to higher revenue. Other income also rose to Rs 11.91 crore from Rs 8.88 crore in June 2025. Earnings before tax increased to Rs 68.05 crore from Rs 37.32 crore, before reported PAT reached Rs 47.76 crore. These movements show that the year-on-year improvement extended from operating profit through the reported bottom line.

On a sequential basis, however, the June quarter was below the March quarter on revenue and operating measures. Net sales declined 2.09% quarter on quarter, while EBITDA declined from Rs 90.63 crore to Rs 87.21 crore. Reported PAT was broadly stable and increased marginally from Rs 47.01 crore.

How does the June quarter compare with WPIL Ltd's recent results?

WPIL Ltd's June-quarter revenue was the second-highest among the five quarterly figures provided, behind the Rs 538.72 crore recorded in December 2025. It was also substantially ahead of the Rs 426.02 crore reported in September 2025 and the Rs 378.58 crore recorded in June 2025.

Profit levels have varied across the recent quarters. Reported PAT was Rs 70.70 crore in December 2025, Rs 50.87 crore in September 2025, Rs 47.01 crore in March 2026 and Rs 47.76 crore in June 2026. This means the latest quarterly profit exceeded the year-earlier level but remained below the December-quarter figure.

Earlier disclosures for Q2 FY26 described mixed operating conditions. The company reported consolidated revenue of Rs 426 crore in that quarter, while its product division reached Rs 151 crore in H1 FY26 and had a record Rs 422 crore order book. The same disclosure said project-business revenue had declined and international operations had increased during the first half of FY26. This context helps explain why quarterly trends should be assessed across both revenue mix and project execution conditions.

When will WPIL Ltd report its Q2 FY27 results?

WPIL Ltd's board is scheduled to meet on October 31, 2026, to consider and approve unaudited financial results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026. The results will be subject to a limited review by the statutory auditors, according to the company’s board-meeting disclosure.

The company has also scheduled an investor and analyst conference call for October 31, 2026 at 5:30 PM IST to discuss Q2 FY27 earnings. Managing Director Prakash Agarwal and Executive Director Krishna Kumar Ganeriwala are listed as participants. The scheduled call gives investors a forum to assess the September-quarter performance after the board considers the financial statements.

The June quarter was released on July 24, 2026. The scheduled Q2 announcement will therefore provide the next reported update on revenue, profitability and the company’s operating performance for FY27. No September-quarter financial figures were provided in the available disclosures.

Why do WPIL Ltd's quarterly results matter to investors?

WPIL Ltd's June-quarter figures matter because revenue growth was matched by a larger year-on-year increase in reported PAT. Net sales rose 32.21%, while reported PAT rose 110.95% from the low base of June 2025. EBITDA rose by Rs 29.13 crore year on year, indicating that the improvement was reflected at the operating level as well.

The available information also points to a distinction between annual comparisons and sequential movement. June revenue and EBITDA were modestly lower than March, even as reported PAT edged higher. Investors assessing the company’s performance can therefore compare the strong year-on-year recovery with the quarter-on-quarter moderation in sales and operating profit.

The company’s longer-term outlook cited in the source projects average revenue growth of 25% a year over the next two years, compared with a 13% forecast for India’s machinery industry. This is a forecast rather than a reported result. The upcoming results and management call will be relevant for assessing reported progress against that outlook.

Conclusion

WPIL Ltd entered FY27 with net sales turnover of Rs 500.54 crore and reported PAT of Rs 47.76 crore in the June quarter. The year-on-year gains in revenue, EBITDA and profit indicate a stronger start than the comparable quarter a year earlier, while the sequential comparison shows slightly lower sales and EBITDA than in March 2026.

The next item to watch is the board’s consideration of Q2 and H1 FY27 unaudited results on October 31, 2026, followed by the scheduled investor call that evening. The disclosures may clarify whether revenue growth, operating margins and profit levels seen in the June quarter continued through the September quarter.
