Poojaa Precision Engg. Limited reported a net profit of ₹249 crore for the half year ended September 30, 2026, marking an 88% YoY increase from ₹133 crore in the corresponding period last year.

The aluminium die-casting components manufacturer logged revenue from operations of ₹2,101 crore during the period, registering a 68% YoY growth against ₹1,249 crore in H1FY26. The company’s EBITDA stood at ₹396 crore, reflecting a 74% YoY jump, with EBITDA margins holding steady at 19%.

Sectoral Performance

The company’s growth was underpinned by strong traction across its diversified end-markets. While automotive remained the largest contributor, non-automotive and electric vehicle (EV) segments witnessed significant expansion.

Note: Segment totals in the investor presentation differ slightly from standalone P&L revenue due to classification adjustments.

The non-automotive segment’s revenue nearly tripled, driven by a 182% YoY rise in the energy sector and a 396% increase in agriculture-related sales. EV revenue grew 80% YoY to ₹250 crore, signaling successful penetration into emerging mobility platforms.

Financial Highlights

Profit before tax (PBT) rose 85.3% YoY to ₹338 crore. Tax expenses increased to ₹89 crore, resulting in a PAT margin of 12%, up from 11% in H1FY26. Earnings per share (EPS) for the half-year stood at ₹16.43 on both basic and diluted bases.

What the Numbers Show

A key divergence in the financials is the relationship between gross margin contraction and EBITDA margin stability. Gross margins declined to 53% in H1FY27 from 61% in H1FY26, primarily due to a sharp rise in direct overheads which more than doubled to ₹995 crore. However, operating leverage and efficient management of other expenses allowed the company to maintain a robust 19% EBITDA margin. This suggests that while input costs or production complexities impacted top-line profitability, operational efficiencies shielded bottom-line performance.

Additionally, the balance sheet reflects the impact of the recent IPO. Cash and cash equivalents surged to ₹766 crore as of September 30, 2026, from ₹49 crore at March 31, 2026. This liquidity infusion has strengthened the capital structure, reducing the debt-to-equity ratio to 0.10x from 0.30x in FY26.

Strategic Outlook

The Board approved unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the half year ended September 30, 2026. The company listed on the BSE SME platform on August 4, 2026, raising ₹1,598 crore through its IPO.

Management outlined plans to expand capacity significantly. Unit III at Khed, Pune, is expected to increase melting capacity to 28,800 MTPA and casting/machining capacity to 12,600 MTPA by September 2027. The company targets ~50% revenue growth in FY27 and aims for ₹1,000 crore annual turnover by FY30.

Poojaa Precision Engg. Limited has revised the schedule for its upcoming virtual interaction with investors. The management team will now engage with stakeholders on Thursday, October 8, 2026, replacing the previously announced date of October 1, 2026.

Meeting Details and Format

The company filed a fresh disclosure with BSE Limited under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. While the initial intimation listed the session as purely virtual, the updated schedule specifies a hybrid mode allowing for both in-person and online participation. The location remains Pune.

Compliance and Disclosure Protocol

The company reiterated that no Unpublished Price Sensitive Information (UPSI) is proposed to be shared during the meeting. This ensures compliance with market integrity standards while facilitating communication with shareholders. The schedule remains subject to change based on exigencies arising from either the investors or the company side.

The updated intimation was signed by Shalaka Khandelwal, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer, on October 6, 2026. The entity was formerly known as Pooja Castings Private Limited.
