Revenue rose 31.7% to ₹769 crore, up from ₹584 crore in the corresponding quarter last year, supported by robust growth across business segments.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) rose 7.8% to ₹79.7 crore from ₹73.9 crore last year, while the operating margin narrowed to 10.4% from 12.7%.

For the full fiscal year 2024-25, consolidated profit after tax rose 18.8% YoY to ₹1,670.3 crore, while revenue climbed 18.7% to ₹2,621 crore. Annual EBITDA grew 19.9% to ₹334.1 crore, with margins at 12.75%.

Pricol also highlighted a strategic acquisition during the quarter, with its wholly owned subsidiary acquiring the Injection Moulded Plastic Component Solutions Division of Sundaram Auto Components Ltd on a slump-sale basis. The company said the deal enhances capabilities in plastics and strengthens vertical integration.

Managing Director Vikram Mohan noted that while strategic initiatives contributed to growth, geopolitical headwinds impacted results. "We expect to see stronger performance from Q2 FY26 as countermeasures take hold," he said.
