PCBL Chemical has delivered a mixed financial performance for the March quarter and FY2026, with a strong sequential rebound in profitability but continued year-on-year pressure on earnings.
 
For Q4 FY2026, the company reported consolidated total income of Rs. 2,070.72 crore, up from Rs. 1,861.70 crore in the previous quarter (Q3 FY2026), marking an 11.23% quarter-on-quarter increase.
 
Net profit surged dramatically to Rs. 40.25 crore, compared with just Rs. 2.03 crore in Q3, reflecting an exceptional 1,882.76% QoQ jump. Earnings per share also rose sharply to Rs. 1.02, up from Rs. 0.05 in the previous quarter.
 
On a year-on-year basis, however, the picture was weaker. Revenue slipped slightly from Rs. 2,107.26 crore in Q4 FY2025 to Rs. 2,070.72 crore, a decline of 1.73%. Profitability also fell sharply, with net profit dropping to Rs. 40.25 crore from Rs. 100.16 crore, a 59.81% decline YoY. 
 
EPS fell from Rs. 2.64 to Rs. 1.02, down 61.36%. For the full financial year FY2026, PCBL Chemical reported total income of Rs. 8,227.89 crore, down from Rs. 8,451.64 crore in FY2025, a 2.65% decline. Net profit halved to Rs. 197.87 crore from Rs. 434.60 crore, a 54.47% drop, while EPS fell to Rs. 5.13 from Rs. 11.48, down 55.31%.
 
Despite the annual weakness, the sharp sequential recovery in Q4 suggests improving momentum heading into FY2027, even as overall earnings remain under pressure.
