Business Segment Performance
Home textile exports grew 28.1% year-on-year, supported by improving global demand. The UK and Europe regions delivered over 20% growth, while the US pillow business grew 2.3x year-on-year. Domestic business sustained momentum with nearly 21.3% year-on-year growth as brands penetrated deeper into households. Global brands, including Christy, maintained double-digit growth and contributed approximately 12% of revenues.
Flooring margins improved to 10.4%, reflecting operational discipline despite softer export volumes. Innovation contributed roughly 25% of the business. The Anjar facility began operating on 100% green power effective mid-July 2026.
What the Numbers Show
The expansion in EBITDA margin from 11.1% to 12.5% demonstrates significant operating leverage. While revenue increased by 23.5%, total segment profit before interest, depreciation, and tax grew by approximately 39.5%. This divergence indicates that cost management and mix shifts toward higher-margin products or regions drove profitability growth faster than sales volume. Additionally, other income rose sharply to ₹32.71 crore from ₹28.90 crore, though this remains a minor component relative to operating profits.
Corporate Actions and Risks
Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2026, Welspun Living completed the transfer of its 51% stake in Welspun Captive Power Generation Limited on July 31, 2026, reclassifying it from a subsidiary to an associate. Operations at the Vapi manufacturing unit were disrupted since July 23, 2026, due to heavy rains and flooding; the company is assessing the impact but noted all assets are adequately insured.
