JSW Infrastructure reported a consolidated net profit of ₹357.60 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of 8.2% compared to ₹389.57 crore in the corresponding period of the previous year. Revenue from operations rose 18% to ₹1,444.83 crore from ₹1,223.85 crore in Q1FY26. Operating EBITDA grew 16% to ₹674 crore compared to ₹581 crore in the year-ago period, while EBITDA margin contracted to 46.6% from 47.5% year-on-year. Profit Before Tax stood at ₹462.79 crore compared with ₹472.56 crore in Q1FY26, primarily due to lower other income as surplus funds were deployed towards ongoing growth capex. The board approved the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results at a meeting held on July 21, 2026.
The company handled cargo volumes of 31 million tonnes during the quarter, an increase of 6% over the last year. This growth was primarily driven by strong performance at Jaigarh Port, led by higher anchor customer volumes and increasing third-party cargo throughput, along with robust performance at Dharamtar Port, South West Port, and Ennore Bulk Terminal. Contributions also came from interim operations at the Tuticorin Terminal. This was partially offset by lower volumes at the Fujairah Liquid Terminal due to a challenging operating environment in the Middle East.
