Oriental Trimex Limited reported a net profit of ₹81.98 lakh for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1FY27), marking a 37.8% year-on-year increase from ₹59.56 lakh in Q1FY26. The marble flooring manufacturer saw its revenue from operations surge 364% to ₹797.83 lakh total revenue (₹787.88 lakh from operations), driven by strong demand in its single segment business. This top-line growth translated directly to the bottom line, with operating leverage helping expand profit margins despite higher material costs.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited financial results at a meeting held on August 10, 2026, in compliance with Regulation 30 and Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Aditya S Jain and Co., the company’s statutory auditors, issued their review report on the standalone financial results, confirming that the statements were free of material misstatement based on their review under Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2410.

Financial Performance Highlights

Revenue from operations jumped to ₹787.88 lakh from ₹169.85 lakh in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Other income contributed ₹9.95 lakh, bringing total revenue to ₹797.83 lakh. While expenses rose 154% to ₹687.65 lakh, primarily due to increased purchases of stock-in-trade (₹676.81 lakh vs ₹88.60 lakh last year), the cost of materials consumed remained relatively stable at ₹121.42 lakh compared to ₹139.09 lakh in Q1FY26. Employee benefit expenses increased moderately to ₹37.60 lakh from ₹30.54 lakh.

What the Numbers Show

The most significant operational shift is the dramatic improvement in inventory management and sales conversion. In Q1FY26, the company recorded a negative change in inventories of ₹185.55 lakh, indicating stock buildup. In Q1FY27, this figure widened to ₹262.68 lakh reduction, suggesting robust movement of finished goods and stock-in-trade. This efficient inventory turnover, combined with stable material costs relative to sales volume, allowed the company to achieve a pre-tax margin of approximately 13.8%, up from 22.8% in Q1FY26 when adjusted for the lower base. The earnings per share rose to ₹0.15 from ₹0.11, reflecting the direct impact of volume growth on profitability. No dividend was declared for the quarter.
