During Q2FY26, Revenue from Operations rose by 75.6 per cent quarter-on-quarter, increasing from Rs 316.67 million in Q1 to Rs 556.02 million in Q2, supported by stronger order execution and higher production activity.

Total Income for Q2FY26 stood at Rs 570.40 million, up 76.9 per cent from Rs 322.47 million in Q1FY26. On a year-on-year basis, revenue increased by 7.2 per cent compared with Rs 518.84 million in Q2FY25, reflecting stable demand across domestic and international markets.

Profit Before Tax nearly doubled, rising by 95.78 per cent from Rs 41.25 million in Q1FY26 to Rs 81.35 million in Q2FY26. This improvement was driven by operational efficiencies, better capacity utilisation and disciplined cost control.

Profit After Tax increased by 96.3 per cent to Rs 57.24 million in Q2FY26, compared with Rs 29.15 million in Q1FY26. On a year-on-year basis, PAT rose by 39.7 per cent from Rs 40.97 million in Q2FY25.

Earnings Per Share strengthened to Rs 2.81 in Q2FY26, compared with Rs 1.43 in Q1FY26 and Rs 2.02 in Q2FY25.

Chief Financial Officer Mr Manoj Kumar Arora said the second quarter once again demonstrated the company’s financial flexibility. Profitability improved sharply due to higher revenue, disciplined cost management, efficient resource allocation and strong working-capital control. With better inventory planning and healthier cash flows, operations were sustained smoothly without additional debt.

He further noted that the company enters the second half of the year with a focus on expanding margins, strengthening its global presence and building on the positive momentum in exports. Significant new orders from key overseas markets, including Brazil and Venezuela, have enhanced visibility for upcoming quarters.

The management reiterated that UDTL’s strong fundamentals and forward-looking strategy position it well to sustain growth momentum and deliver consistent long-term value creation for shareholders.
