Whirlpool of India FY26 Standalone Profit Before Tax at ₹32,486 Lacs, Consolidated at ₹39,663 Lacs
Whirlpool of India reported audited standalone profit before tax of ₹32,486 lacs and consolidated profit before tax of ₹39,663 lacs for the year ended March 31, 2026. The company recommended a final dividend of ₹5 per equity share, amounting to ₹6,344 lacs. An exceptional item of ₹991 lacs was recognized due to an insurance claim. The company also acquired full ownership of its subsidiary, Elica PB Whirlpool Kitchen Appliances Private Limited, for ₹5,856 lacs.
The financial results are positive, and the acquisition of the subsidiary is a strategic move. However, the changes in promoter holding and the exceptional items suggest a mixed impact that is not entirely high.
The company reported positive financial results with a recommended dividend and full acquisition of a subsidiary, outweighing the impact of an exceptional item related to an insurance claim and labor code changes.
Whirlpool of India Limited has released its audited financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026.

Additionally, the company accrued an incremental impact of ₹3,884 lacs (₹3,341 lacs standalone) due to the implementation of four Labour Codes by the Government of India, disclosed as an exceptional item for the quarter ended December 31, 2025. The company continues to monitor the finalization of rules by the government and will account for any resulting impact.
