RPG Group owned tyre maker CEAT reported a more than two fold jump in net profit to ₹243 crore in Q4 FY26, driven by strong operating performance and growth in its international business.
The company’s revenue from operations rose 23.3% year-on-year to ₹4,218 crore during the quarter, supported by a better product mix and steady demand across segments.
CEAT’s performance was also aided by the full integration of Camso, strengthening its portfolio and global footprint.
On a sequential basis, the company saw profit rise 56%, while revenue remained largely flat with a marginal 1.5% increase.
For the full financial year FY26, CEAT crossed ₹15,000 crore in revenue and reported its highest ever annual profit of ₹697 crore, along with market share gains in both replacement and OEM segments.
According to CEO Arnab Banerjee, demand momentum remains strong, but the company expects near term margin pressure due to a sharp rise in raw material costs. He noted that price increases may only partially offset the impact in the short term.
CFO Kumar Subbiah added that the company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet and healthy leverage, with a focus on disciplined capital allocation and improving cash flows.
Looking ahead, CEAT plans to continue capacity expansion and calibrated pricing strategies to manage cost pressures while sustaining growth.
The company’s shares closed 0.53% lower at ₹3,517.2 on the BSE following the results announcement.
