The chief executive said the company had delivered a second consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth in FY27. He added that earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization rose 18% in the quarter. The available details did not include specific market estimates establishing that the results exceeded analysts’ expectations.

The chief executive said on the results call that the company had posted "a second consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth in FY27," adding that EBITDA rose 18%. Management said this measure grew faster than revenue, contributing to a 50-basis-point improvement in first-half margins. Adjusted earnings per share stood at Rs 9.85 for the first half, according to the call transcript. These indicators point to improving profitability alongside higher sales, without changing the variation in performance across businesses. Management said the company’s pricing actions are expected to begin showing an impact in the third quarter.
