Cosco (India) Limited reported a strong start to FY27, with revenue and profitability expanding significantly compared to the previous fiscal year. For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, the company logged total income from operations of ₹5,515.88 lakh, up from ₹5,022.07 lakh in Q1FY25. This represents a 9.8% year-on-year growth in topline figures.

The bottom line saw even sharper improvement. Net profit before tax stood at ₹99.01 lakh, marginally higher than the ₹97.97 lakh recorded in the same quarter last year. After accounting for taxes, net profit for the period reached ₹89.95 lakh, a substantial jump from ₹54.99 lakh in Q1FY25. This translates to a 63.6% year-on-year increase in net profit after tax.

Financial Highlights

Earnings per share (basic and diluted) rose to ₹1.68 per equity share of face value ₹10 each, compared to ₹1.32 in the corresponding quarter of FY26. Total comprehensive income for the period was ₹73.47 lakh, up from ₹55.71 lakh in Q1FY25.

What the Numbers Show

While revenue grew by nearly 10%, the pre-tax profit remained relatively flat at just over 1% growth. However, the significant divergence between pre-tax profit stability and the 63.6% surge in post-tax profit suggests a favorable tax impact or lower tax burden in the current quarter compared to the prior year. This efficiency gain allowed a larger portion of operating profits to flow through to the bottom line.
