Prism Cement delivered strong full-year earnings with EBITDA per tonne increasing to ₹543 from ₹351 in FY25, supported by disciplined cost management. Q4 FY26 EBITDA per tonne moderated to ₹337 from ₹579 in Q4 FY25, primarily due to a scheduled maintenance shutdown that was strategically shifted to the Q3–Q4 period to align with Alternative Fuel and Raw Materials (AFR) initiatives. Cement and clinker sales volume grew 5.7% YoY to 2.1 million tonnes in Q4 FY26, with the share of premium products increasing to 62% from 46% in Q4 FY25. ROCE for Prism Cement stood at 16.7% in FY26.
H & R Johnson delivered steady revenue growth of 2.3% YoY to ₹2,447 crore in FY26, with EBITDA improving 27.7% YoY to ₹178.7 crore and margins expanding by 145 basis points to 7.3%. In Q4 FY26, tile operations at Morbi were impacted by disruptions arising from the Middle East crisis; however, the company sustained revenue growth through inventory reduction. Tiles Division revenue grew 5.2% YoY to ₹598 crore in Q4 FY26, while Bath Division revenue increased 17.1% YoY to ₹109 crore. EBITDA margin improved by 147 basis points YoY to 9.8% in Q4 FY26.

Q4 FY26 revenues grew 16.8% YoY to ₹439 crore, driven by higher volumes in the Commercial Concrete segment. Total volumes (Commercial + Mega) increased 3.7% YoY to 10.1 lakh m³ in Q4 FY26, with the Mega Projects order book standing at approximately 13.5 lakh m³.
Strategic Exit from Raheja QBE & Exceptional Items
Prism Johnson has entered into an agreement to exit its insurance joint venture, Raheja QBE General Insurance Company Limited, through the sale of its entire 51% stake to existing partner QBE Holdings (AAP) Pty Limited for ₹324 crore (subject to certain adjustments on completion of the transaction as per the Share Purchase Agreement). Shareholder and IRDAI approvals have been received, and the transaction is expected to be completed in the next few weeks. As the transaction was not concluded by March 31, 2026, the investment was classified as a non-current asset held for sale, resulting in an impairment charge of ₹79.03 crore, which contributed to the standalone net loss of ₹47.44 crore for Q4 FY26.
