Shares of Anupam Rasayan India Ltd slipped nearly 5% from the day’s high, even after the company reported strong Q2 FY26 results. The stock was trading 1.86% lower at Rs 1,105.30 on Friday, October 17, compared to the previous close of Rs 1,126.20. It hit an intraday high of Rs 1,165 and a low of Rs 1,114.60, with a market capitalization of Rs 1.26 lakh crore.
The decline came despite robust quarterly performance, likely due to profit booking after the stock’s sharp rally earlier in the session.
During the September quarter, Anupam Rasayan reported a 149% year-on-year (YoY) rise in revenue from operations to Rs 731 crore, while net profit attributable to owners jumped 166% YoY to Rs 44 crore.
However, the company’s EBITDA margin fell to 18.54% from 27.35% YoY, reflecting higher input costs despite an increase in EBITDA to Rs 136 crore versus Rs 80 crore in the same period last year.
Key financials:
- Revenue from operations: Rs 731 crore vs Rs 294 crore YoY (up 149%)
- Net profit (owners): Rs 44 crore vs Rs 16.7 crore YoY (up 166%)
- EBITDA: Rs 136 crore vs Rs 80 crore YoY (up 69%)
- EBITDA margin: 18.54% vs 27.35% YoY (down 881 bps)
Despite strong operational performance, the contraction in margins and likely near-term profit-taking weighed on investor sentiment during Friday’s trade.
