Ircon International reported a consolidated net profit of ₹92.03 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, rising 8.6% from ₹164.10 crore in the corresponding period of FY25. Consolidated revenue from operations increased 9.5% year-on-year to ₹1,955.83 crore, up from ₹1,786.28 crore in Q1FY25.

The standalone net profit stood at ₹163.52 crore, up 8.6% from ₹150.57 crore a year ago, while standalone revenue reached ₹1,800.27 crore, compared to ₹1,664.19 crore in the prior year quarter.

Financial Performance

Domestic operations contributed ₹1,913.84 crore to consolidated revenue, up from ₹1,757.52 crore in Q1FY25. International revenue was ₹41.99 crore, slightly higher than the ₹28.76 crore recorded in the previous year. Other income declined marginally to ₹86.90 crore from ₹106.10 crore a year ago.

Note: Consolidated net profit fell 43.9% sequentially from ₹191.46 crore in Q4FY26, driven by higher finance costs and a loss from joint ventures.

Consolidated finance costs rose significantly to ₹106.98 crore from ₹75.21 crore in Q1FY25. The company recorded a share of loss of ₹13.36 crore from joint ventures, compared to a profit of ₹17.90 crore in the prior year quarter. Standalone finance costs remained low at ₹3.25 crore.

What the Numbers Show

While domestic revenue growth of 8.9% supported top-line expansion, the sharp decline in consolidated profitability highlights the impact of joint venture performance and financing costs. The consolidated net profit margin contracted to 4.7% from 9.2% in Q1FY25, primarily due to the swing from a ₹17.90 crore JV profit contribution to a ₹13.36 crore loss this quarter.
