JK Cement reported its consolidated unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended December 31, 2025.
During Q3 FY26, JK Cement’s revenue from operations stood at ₹3,453.07 crore, compared to ₹2,930.28 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. This marks a solid YoY growth of 17.84%, driven by improved volumes and better realisations in select regions.
Despite the strong top-line growth, profitability remained under pressure. Profit before tax (PBT) declined to ₹268.28 crore in Q3 FY26 from ₹279.26 crore in Q3 FY25, reflecting a YoY decline of 3.93%. The moderation in PBT was primarily due to a sharp rise in operating expenses, particularly power and fuel costs, freight expenses, and employee benefits.
Total expenses for the quarter rose to ₹3,192.91 crore, up from ₹2,696.22 crore in Q3 FY25, registering a YoY increase of 18.42%. The expense growth slightly outpaced revenue expansion, leading to margin compression during the quarter.
Profit after tax (PAT) for Q3 FY26 came in at ₹173.61 crore, compared to ₹189.87 crore in the year-ago period. This represents a YoY decline of 8.56%, impacted by higher costs and tax outgo despite improved operational scale.
