VSTL Q4FY26 Revenue Surges 16.24% to ₹335.13 Cr; EBITDA Up 26.15%
Vibhor Steel Tubes Limited (VSTL) reported Q4FY26 revenue of ₹335.13 crore, a 16.24% increase YoY. EBITDA grew 26.15% to ₹15.34 crore. Net profit declined 42.12% to ₹2.57 crore due to increased costs from the new Odisha plant. For FY26, revenue was ₹1149.35 crore, with net profit at ₹8.79 crore.
The revenue growth and capacity expansion are positive indicators. However, the significant drop in net profit and increased costs associated with the new plant introduce some concerns. The CRISIL ratings provide a stable outlook, suggesting a medium-term impact.
The company reported strong revenue and EBITDA growth driven by capacity expansion and demand. However, a significant decline in net profit due to increased finance and depreciation costs tempers the positive outlook, making the overall sentiment neutral.
Vibhor Steel Tubes Limited (VSTL) reported a 16.24% year-on-year increase in standalone operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, reaching ₹335.13 crore compared to ₹288.30 crore in the same period last year. The company's EBITDA saw a significant rise of 26.15%, amounting to ₹15.34 crore, up from ₹12.16 crore in the prior year's quarter.
However, net profit declined by 42.12% to ₹2.57 crore during the quarter, compared to ₹4.44 crore in Q4FY25. This reduction is attributed to increased finance costs and depreciation due to the commencement of operations at the new Odisha plant. Earnings per share stood at ₹1.36 for the quarter.
For the full financial year ended March 31, 2026, VSTL's operating income grew by 15.35% to ₹1149.35 crore from ₹996.38 crore in the previous year. Standalone net profit for the year decreased by 25.32% to ₹8.79 crore, down from ₹11.77 crore in FY25.
Vijay Kaushik, Chairman and Executive Director of Vibhor Steel Tubes, commented on the performance, stating, "We have witnessed a robust growth in our business translating into higher topline in this quarter. Steel demand from infrastructure and real estate sectors has been steadily increasing backed by government's sustained emphasis on infrastructure and manufacturing sectors. With our additional capacity on stream, we are well positioned to capitalise on the growing demand."
