Price around the results
Q1FY27 operating margin was above the peer benchmark
Jamna Auto's consolidated operating margin of 13.92% was 0.81 percentage points above the 13.11% median for 122 Consumer Discretionary peers that had reported. This places the company above the sector midpoint for the quarter, though the result does not establish a sequential or year-on-year direction.
Profit conversion was not driven by other income
Other income of Rs 2.82 cr was small relative to profit before tax of Rs 65.71 cr, so the quarter's pretax result was not materially dependent on non-operating income. The bridge to net profit also included Rs 4.04 cr of interest, Rs 18.21 cr of depreciation and a 26.16% tax rate.
Results were filed after market close
