GRP Limited reported a significant improvement in profitability for the first quarter of FY27, with standalone net profit rising 48% to ₹4.82 crore from ₹3.25 crore in Q1FY26. The consolidated net profit attributable to owners surged 140% to ₹4.20 crore, compared to ₹1.75 crore in the corresponding period last year. This turnaround marks a sharp recovery from the preceding quarter, where the consolidated entity reported a loss of ₹1.34 crore. The strong performance was driven by a 24% increase in sales volumes and a 5% improvement in realizations, which offset a 31% rise in raw material costs due to higher prices of select rubber grades.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results at a meeting held on July 23, 2026. The results were subjected to a limited review by the statutory auditors, Rajendra & Co., pursuant to Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Additionally, the Board adopted an updated policy for determining materiality of events, incorporating changes related to Key Managerial Personnel authorized to make disclosures under Regulation 30 of the SEBI Listing Regulations. The company published these results in the Financial Express and Gujaratmitra on July 25, 2026, as required under Regulation 47.

The following table summarises key financial metrics across standalone and consolidated performance:

Standalone revenue from operations grew 30% to ₹15,565.01 lakh from ₹11,922.36 lakh in Q1FY26. Consolidated total income grew 26% year-on-year. Despite a 2 percentage point decline in gross margin in Q1FY27 compared to Q1FY26, the EBITDA margin improved by 2 percentage points to 11%, supported by lower operating costs. The rubber recycling segment contributed ₹15,439.13 lakh to gross revenue, generating a segment result of ₹1,922.86 lakh before tax and interest, compared to ₹1,123.63 lakh in the same period last year. Reclaim rubber volumes grew by 12% year-on-year, supported by a robust 20% increase in export volumes.

Strategic Developments and Outlook

During the quarter, GRP Limited granted an additional 52,530 stock options under the second tranche of its Employees Stock Option Scheme (ESOS-2024) to eligible employees. These options carry an exercise price of ₹1,756 per option and will vest over a maximum period of four years, subject to specified conditions. The company had previously reserved 160,000 equity shares for this scheme.

The Pyrova Energy business stabilized during the quarter following the successful resolution of initial operational issues. Phase 1 of the Pyrova Energy project, commissioned in October 2025, includes India's largest single-line continuous reactor of 15KTPA. Phase 2, under commissioning through February 2027, involves setting up a recovered Carbon Black facility at Solapur and enhancing the Tyre Pyrolysis plant capacity to 45KTPA. The Plastics business recorded a 14 percentage point year-on-year improvement in EBITDA margin, driven by a 10 percentage point expansion in gross margin resulting from a restructured product and customer mix. Total EPR income stood at ₹49 Mn in Q1FY27 versus ₹46 Mn in Q1FY26.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between the standalone and consolidated profit growth highlights the impact of inter-company dynamics or subsidiary performance. While standalone PAT grew 48%, consolidated PAT attributable to owners nearly tripled at 140%. Total comprehensive income for the consolidated group remained positive at ₹517.26 lakh, reversing the substantial comprehensive loss of ₹312.16 lakh seen in Q1FY26. This suggests that while operational profits are robust, non-operational items or other comprehensive income components previously dragged down overall group value have stabilized. The rubber recycling segment remains the undisputed core, accounting for over 97% of standalone gross revenue. Additionally, working capital cycle improved by 8 days to 86 days as of June 30, from March 31, through optimized working capital management.
