Voltas shares fall over 2% today after Q4 profit drops 52%, margin pressure weighs on sentiment

Shares of Voltas declined more than 2% during Friday’s session after the company reported a weak set of Q4 FY26 earnings, with profitability taking a sharp hit despite marginal growth in revenue.

As of 9:25 AM IST on Friday, May 15, Voltas shares touched an intraday low of Rs 1,252.00, compared to the previous closing price of Rs 1,293.50. The stock opened at Rs 1,280.20 and traded in the range of Rs 1,252.00 to Rs 1,289.40 during the session.

The company reported consolidated revenue of Rs 4,888 crore for the March quarter, registering a 2.5% year on year increase from Rs 4,768 crore reported in the corresponding quarter last year.

However, operating performance remained under pressure during the quarter. EBITDA declined 33.6% YoY to Rs 221 crore from Rs 333 crore, while EBITDA margin contracted to 4.5% from 7.0% in the year ago period, reflecting a decline of 250 basis points.

Net profit also saw a sharp fall, dropping 51.9% YoY to Rs 116 crore against Rs 241 crore reported in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year.

The weaker profitability performance appears to have impacted investor sentiment, resulting in selling pressure in the stock despite stable topline growth.

On the broader trend, Voltas shares are currently trading below their 52 week high of Rs 1,582.50, while the 52 week low stands at Rs 1,186.80.
