Key Facts
Krishna Defence and Allied Industries’ consolidated net profit rose to 15.36 crore rupees in the quarter ended September 2026, compared with 8.92 crore rupees in the same period a year earlier, an annual increase of 72.20%, according to a results summary published by Capital Market. The figures reflect an improvement in the company’s consolidated results, the basis used for the comparison in the summary. Consolidated revenue from operations was 75.29 crore rupees, compared with 48.36 crore rupees in the September 2025 quarter. Revenue therefore rose 55.69% year on year. Profit before tax also increased to 20.51 crore rupees from 9.14 crore rupees, a growth of 124%, according to the same source.
Operating indicators improved alongside revenue and profit growth; the operating margin was 26.79% in the September 2026 quarter, compared with 19.02% in the corresponding period of 2025, according to Capital Market’s summary. The margin measures operating profit as a share of sales, and the comparison shows it widened over the year. This coincided with an increase in consolidated revenue from 48.36 crore rupees to 75.29 crore rupees. At the same time, profit before tax grew faster than revenue, reaching 124% against revenue growth of 55.69%. Consolidated net profit rose 72.20%, from 8.92 crore rupees to 15.36 crore rupees.
Trade Brains reported that the company’s shares rose about 11% following its second-quarter results on 30 October 2026. The move followed the release of results showing higher profit and revenue, but the coverage did not establish that the results alone caused the share-price change. The rise is therefore read as a market move following the announcement, not as evidence of a confirmed causal relationship. Trade Brains described the gain as approximate. The available Capital Market summary did not include a specific share price or further details about the timing of the move.
