MMP Industries Reports Record Q4 Revenue and 66% PAT Surge Amid Full-Year Profit Decline

The company posted its highest-ever quarterly profit, with consolidated PAT rising 66% year-over-year to Rs 180 crore in Q4FY26, driven by strong demand in aluminium powders and foils, improved realisations, and a net exceptional credit of Rs 54.5 crore from insurance claims and provision adjustments under the New Wage Code. Revenue for the quarter reached Rs 2,496 crore, up 12% from Rs 2,231 crore in the same period last year, while EBITDA climbed 17% to Rs 215 crore, reflecting better operational efficiency and product mix despite elevated input costs. The company’s aluminium powders segment contributed Rs 1,548 crore in Q4, a 21% YoY increase, while foils revenue grew 14% to Rs 651 crore, supported by higher capacity utilisation and strong pharmaceutical sector demand.

For the full fiscal year, MMP delivered Rs 8,253 crore in total revenue, a 19% increase from Rs 6,929 crore in FY25, with aluminium foils showing the most robust growth at 39% to Rs 2,152 crore and powders rising 15% to Rs 5,040 crore. However, consolidated PAT declined 20% to Rs 310 crore from Rs 389 crore in FY25, primarily due to a Rs 69.6 crore net exceptional loss linked to the same insurance and provision adjustments, along with Rs 35.2 crore in losses from newly incorporated subsidiaries during their ramp-up phase. EBITDA margin contracted to 8.0% from 9.4% in FY25, as higher metal prices and slower execution of government infrastructure projects weighed on the conductors and ABC segments, which saw only 3% revenue growth despite sustained demand.

The temporary operational disruption at the Umred plant in Q1FY26, which caused an estimated Rs 45–50 crore revenue loss and Rs 7–8 crore EBITDA impact, significantly affected full-year profitability. Excluding this incident, the company’s PAT would have been Rs 11–12 crore higher, underscoring underlying operational strength. Operations normalised in subsequent quarters, enabling strong sequential growth in Q4, with revenue up 22% from Q3FY26 and EBITDA rising 18%. The company also achieved key milestones in backward integration, including the in-house development of FRP rod manufacturing for polymer insulators and the commencement of commercial exports to Nepal, while BIS approval for AL59 bare conductors is expected to drive traction in H1FY27.

Looking ahead, MMP Industries anticipates FY27 revenue growth of 13–15% across its core segments, with aluminium powders and foils projected to lead the expansion. Export volumes for powders are expected to rise 50%, supported by stronger demand from West Asia, Europe, and the US, while foil margins are set to improve through value-added printed and security foils launching in Q3FY27. The company’s Rs 30 crore 7 MW solar park under open access is slated for commissioning in H1FY27, aiming to reduce power costs and enhance long-term margins. Meanwhile, the Rs 1,200 crore aluminium wire rod facility at Bhandara, with installation beginning in July 2027, will strengthen supply chain control for conductors and LT cables. With polymer insulator subsidiary MEPL ramping up from Q3FY27 and strategic product launches on track, MMP remains confident in its ability to navigate raw material volatility and deliver sustainable profitability despite macroeconomic headwinds.
