PAT at Rs 2535.48 lakh in Q1FY26, as against Rs 2366.15 lakh in Q1FY25 Ajit Jhunjhunwala, Vice Chairman & Managing Director, said: “Overall, the quarter's performance remained subdued, as Q1 is typically a softer period for the industry. With early monsoons, lower wedding dates in this quarter, compounded by reduced consumer spending, added to further pressure. Despite some easing in inflationary pressures, demand has been slow in Q1. However, we did see a sequential improvement at the EBITDA and PBT levels, driven by reduced production costs following the strategic suspension of operations at our ageing and obsolete Madhupur plant and the temporary shutdown of one of the furnaces at Sitarganj for relining. With production now fully consolidated at Sitarganj, where we have the latest automated technology, we remain committed to driving efficiencies and implementing necessary cost-control measures. The recent adjustments made to our distribution channels for enhanced reach have been completed, and we anticipate a recovery in demand with the festive period starting. We are starting to see positive trends as we enter the festive season. Our focus on high-quality products, strong brand recognition, and a solid partner network keeps us well-positioned as a preferred choice for our customers.” Result PDF

Our EBITDA levels have shown sequential improvement, driven by robust cost-control measures and a relentless focus on operational efficiencies. Distribution channels have performed better compared to the previous quarters, although the recent strategic adjustments made to enhance market reach are still stabilizing. We are confident that these changes will translate into greater market penetration in the near term. Despite the improvement in revenues, profitability for the quarter remained at lower levels due to a one-time deferred tax expense. To cater to the anticipated surge in sales during the festive season, we have proactively scaled up inventory levels and launched targeted sales promotion activities. La Opala is well-positioned to capitalise on these opportunities, backed by our superior product quality, strong brand equity, and a robust partner network. We remain confident in our ability to navigate the current challenges and deliver sustained value to our stakeholders." Result PDF
