Compressors & Pumps company Oswal Pumps announced Q2FY26 results Total income of Rs 5,465 million in Q2FY26, registering a growth of 75.8% YoY. EBITDA of Rs 1,348 million in Q2FY26, growing 32.6% YoY. EBITDA Margin was at 24.7%. PAT of Rs 975 million in Q2FY26, up 48.3% YoY and PAT Margin was at 17.8%. Diluted EPS stood at Rs 8.43 in Q2FY26 as against Rs 6.57 in Q2FY25. Vivek Gupta, Chairman & Managing Director, Oswal Pumps, said: “We are pleased to report Total Income of Rs 5,465 million, reflecting a 75.8% YoY increase and 6.1% QoQ growth. This sustained momentum was primarily driven by the continued execution of our PM Kusum and Magel Tyala orders. Our EBITDA margin for the quarter stood at 24.7% while our operating EBITDA margin stood at 23.7%, reflecting a QoQ decline of 368 bps. The primary reason was reduction in PM Kusum and Magel Tyala tender rates, which fell by an average of 7.5%, impacting over 80% of our core revenue. In addition, certain one-time factors contributed to margin pressure, including approximately Rs 400 million of module sales at significantly lower margins compared to complete pumping systems, and a one-time expense of Rs 25 million related to increasing the authorised capital of our subsidiary. These factors together caused an estimated 180 bps decline in operating EBITDA margins, which we expect to recover in Q3FY26. Overall, these elements resulted in an Operating EBITDA margin compression of over 6.5%. However, through proactive value engineering initiatives and operational efficiencies, we were able to mitigate the impact by 285 bps. These actions reinforce our ability to navigate pricing pressures and protect profitability, while positioning the business for a stronger margin profile going forward. While the rate revision continues to put pressure on margins, we are progressing towards the completion of several key backward integration and value engineering projects, which will positively impact our operating profitability by another 1% by Q4FY26. Profit After Tax (PAT) for Q2FY26 was Rs 975 million, marking a 48.3% YoY and 3.0% QoQ increase, with a healthy PAT margin of 17.8%. Looking ahead, we have a strong order book exceeding 18,800 pumps consisting of direct PM Kusum, indirect PM Kusum and export orders and a pipeline of over 30,000 pumps across major states including Maharashtra, Haryana, Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh. These orders, along with the robust pipeline position us well to achieve our FY26 targets. Additionally, we anticipate the launch of PM Kusum 2.0 before the end of this fiscal. Given our integrated business model and strong execution capabilities, we are well placed to leverage the opportunities that will arise from this upcoming program. Separately, we propose shifting the Solar Module Expansion Project to a land parcel adjacent to our existing plant, as it offers a larger area, superior logistics, better manpower utilization, and the ability to leverage existing R&D; and administrative infrastructure. This change is expected to improve operational efficiencies and costs, provide stronger long-term value, while all other elements of the object clause remain unchanged. Overall this will be value accretive to all the stakeholders and for which we will seek shareholders approval.” Result PDF
