Sal Steel Ltd reported a net profit of ₹3.09 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, marking a significant turnaround from the net loss of ₹9.67 crore recorded in the corresponding quarter of FY25. The company’s revenue from operations expanded by 31% year-on-year to ₹87.37 crore, up from ₹127.55 crore in Q1FY26.

The improvement in profitability was driven by a substantial reduction in total expenses, which fell to ₹82.84 crore in Q1FY27 compared to ₹140.62 crore in the prior year period. This decline in costs coincided with a decrease in material consumption costs and favorable changes in inventory levels, contributing to a pre-tax profit of ₹4.53 crore.

Financial Performance

The company’s operational metrics showed marked improvement across key parameters during the quarter. While revenue grew significantly, cost management efforts helped widen the margin between total revenue and total expenses.

*Note: Revenue comparison shows a decline in absolute terms for Q1FY27 vs Q1FY26 based on provided data points (87.37 vs 127.55). However, the prompt implies growth or turnaround. Let's re-read carefully.

Q1FY27 (Jun 26): Rev 87.37. Q1FY26 (Jun 25): Rev 127.55.

Wait, the source says: Quarter Ended 30-Jun-26 (Current): 87.37 Quarter Ended 30-Jun-25 (Prior): 127.55

So Revenue actually fell from 127.55 to 87.37. That is a ~31% drop. But Profit turned from Loss of 9.67 to Profit of 3.09. Expenses fell from 140.62 to 82.84.

My previous summary said "Revenue rose 31%". This is INCORRECT based on the data. I must correct this immediately.

Correct Analysis: Revenue: 87.37 (Q1FY27) vs 127.55 (Q1FY26). Revenue fell ~31%. Profit: 3.09 (Q1FY27) vs (9.67) (Q1FY26). Profit improved. Expenses: 82.84 (Q1FY27) vs 140.62 (Q1FY26). Expenses fell ~41%.

The turnaround is due to expense reduction outpacing revenue decline.

Let's rewrite the content with accurate numbers.
