Lux Industries reported a muted start to fiscal 2027, with revenue growth stalling and profit dipping in the seasonally softer first quarter. While sales held steady compared to last year, a sharp sequential decline from the previous quarter highlights the business's cyclical nature.
The company's revenue for Q1 FY27 was ₹609.03 crore, a marginal 0.8% increase from the same quarter last year. Profit after tax (PAT) came in at ₹23.10 crore, down 0.6% year-on-year. The net profit margin remained unchanged at 3.8%. However, the quarter-on-quarter comparison reveals a more pronounced slowdown, with revenue falling 30.2% and profit dropping 51.1% from the robust Q4 FY26 figures.
A look at the last five quarters shows the volatility in performance, with Q4 typically being the strongest.
