Secretarial Audit Observations

While the statutory auditors reported no qualifications or adverse remarks, the secretarial audit identified several compliance observations during the period under review:

• The company did not maintain the minimum of six directors required under Regulation 17(1)(c) of SEBI LODR from April 8, 2025, to May 26, 2025, following the resignation of Mr. Kazuhiro Nishioka. Board strength was restored on May 26, 2025.
• A delayed submission of the outcome of the Board Meeting held on May 26, 2025, to the National Stock Exchange by approximately 3 hours 58 minutes.
• Certain instances of sharing Unpublished Price Sensitive Information (UPSI) were not fully captured in the Structured Digital Database.
• Delayed filing of e-Form IEPF-2 for the appointment of CFO Mr. Pankaj Gupta as Nodal Officer due to technical glitches on the MCA portal.
• Delays in the timely circulation of draft Minutes of Board and Committee meetings.

Management stated that these lapses were inadvertent or technical and assured strict adherence to timelines going forward.

What the Numbers Show

Promoter participation was near-universal, with 99.98% of promoter-held shares voted in favor of all resolutions. In contrast, non-institutional public shareholders showed lower engagement, polling only 0.34% of their holdings. However, among those who did vote, institutional public shareholders cast 100% of their votes in favor, while non-institutional public shareholders voted against the resolutions in approximately 63% of cases. This divergence highlights a split in sentiment between institutional and retail non-institutional blocs, though the promoter majority ensured unanimous passage of all items.

Munjal Showa reported a year-on-year increase in net profit of 35.4% to ₹112.26 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1FY26), driven by an 18.0% rise in revenue from operations to ₹3,474.98 crore. The Gurugram-based auto components manufacturer also saw its EBITDA margin expand to 3.7% from 3.4% in the corresponding period last year, reflecting improved operational leverage. This performance underscores strong demand in its core segments and effective cost management during the initial quarter of the fiscal year.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited standalone financial results for Q1FY26 on August 03, 2026, pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The results were reviewed by the statutory auditors, Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP, under Regulation 33. Newspaper advertisements disclosing these results were published in "Mint" and "Hindustan" on August 04, 2026.

Revenue and Profitability Performance

Revenue from operations stood at ₹3,474.98 crore in Q1FY26, up from ₹2,860.41 crore in Q1FY25. Total income, which includes other income of ₹130.72 crore, reached ₹3,605.70 crore compared to ₹2,970.54 crore in the previous year’s quarter.

Net profit after tax (PAT) for the quarter was ₹112.26 crore, a significant improvement over the ₹82.82 crore reported in Q1FY25. The company’s earnings per share (EPS) increased to ₹2.81 from ₹2.07 in the year-ago period.

Operational Efficiency and Margins

Munjal Showa’s EBITDA grew to ₹128.70 crore from ₹98.81 crore in Q1FY25, marking a 30.2% year-on-year expansion. This growth outpaced revenue growth, leading to an improvement in the EBITDA margin to 3.7% from 3.4%.

Total expenses for the quarter were ₹3,477.01 crore, compared to ₹2,871.73 crore in Q1FY25. Cost of materials consumed rose to ₹2,704.04 crore from ₹2,256.60 crore, aligning with the higher production volumes. Employee benefits expense increased to ₹338.19 crore from ₹279.80 crore, while other expenses stood at ₹372.26 crore against ₹331.19 crore in the prior year.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between revenue growth (18.0%) and net profit growth (35.4%) highlights strong operating leverage during the quarter. While material costs scaled with revenue, fixed cost absorption and efficient management of other expenses allowed bottom-line profitability to accelerate faster than top-line sales. The expansion in EBITDA margin confirms that the company is benefiting from scale efficiencies in its auto components manufacturing segment.
