Key takeaways
- KOTYARK’s consolidated Q1FY27 operating margin was 12.73%, with operating profit of Rs 11.71 cr before interest and depreciation.
- Net profit was Rs 4.46 cr after Rs 3.01 cr of tax at a 40.29% tax rate.
- Other income contributed only Rs 0.01 cr against profit before tax of Rs 7.47 cr, so reported profit was not meaningfully supported by non-operating income.
Q1FY27 operating profit reflects the core business
KOTYARK’s consolidated Q1FY27 revenue was Rs 91.98 cr, while operating profit stood at Rs 11.71 cr. The 12.73% operating margin shows the earnings generated before interest, depreciation and tax.
Interest, depreciation and tax reduced profit conversion
Profit before tax was Rs 7.47 cr after Rs 1.76 cr of interest and Rs 2.48 cr of depreciation. Tax of Rs 3.01 cr, equal to a 40.29% tax rate, brought net profit to Rs 4.46 cr.
Other income played no material role
Other income was Rs 0.01 cr, a negligible contribution relative to profit before tax of Rs 7.47 cr. The quarter’s reported profit therefore came mainly from operations rather than non-operating income.
