Epigral Ltd ( (IN:EPIGRAL) ) has shared an update.

Epigral Limited reported Q3 FY26 revenue of ₹603 crore, down from ₹649 crore a year earlier, with profit after tax falling to ₹39 crore from ₹104 crore as margins were hit by softer realizations, higher raw material costs and inventory effects. EBITDA margin declined to 17% from 23% sequentially, and for the nine months of FY26 revenue slipped 7% to ₹1,807 crore, EBITDA margin narrowed to 22% from 28%, and plant utilization eased to 76% amid subdued demand linked to an extended monsoon and plant maintenance, even as net debt rose modestly to ₹557 crore and leverage remained contained at 1.0x Net Debt/EBITDA. Management highlighted that demand has strengthened since mid-November and expects margin improvement from Q4 FY26, while underscoring that capex of ₹337 crore in the first nine months and on-schedule projects in CPVC, epichlorohydrin and a wind-solar hybrid power plant are poised to drive scalable, profitable growth and enhance integration from FY27 onward, supporting the company’s long-term value-creation agenda for stakeholders.
