15-May-26 16:04Hrs IST

Revenue from operations rose 7.65% quarter-on-quarter to Rs 2,435.43 crore during the period. However, on a year-on-year basis, consolidated net profit declined 21.33%, while revenue from operations fell 7.95% in Q4 FY26.

EBITDA for the quarter stood at Rs 265 crore, down 16.7% from Rs 318 crore in the corresponding period last year. EBITDA margin contracted to 10.8% in Q4 FY26 from 12% in Q4 FY25.

On the segmental front, the Home Textile business reported revenue of Rs 2,320 crore, down 5.4% YoY, while the Flooring business posted revenue of Rs 189 crore, down 3.5% YoY.

Net debt stood at Rs 775 crore as of March 2026, compared with Rs 1,602 crore as of March 2025, reflecting a reduction of Rs 827 crore year-on-year.

The 'Welspun' brand recorded strong 44% growth in Q4 FY26, supported by deeper household penetration, while innovation contributed around 22% of the company's business in FY26. The company incurred capital expenditure of Rs 472 crore during the year.

B.K. Goenka, Chairman, Welspun Group, said: 'FY26 tested the entire home textiles industry ' US tariff disruptions, West Asia conflict, and cautious global demand created a challenging backdrop throughout the year. We navigated this with discipline and emerged meaningfully stronger. We exit the year with net debt reduced by over 50%, free cash flow grew 8.5x to ₹956 crores, and a domestic business that grew 29.2% in Q4.

The sequential recovery in Q4, with revenues up 7.7% and margins at 10.8%, confirms the trough is firmly behind us. India's landmark FTAs with the US, EU, and UK are a generational shift for our sector ' and we are exceptionally well positioned to capture what comes next. Our #1 global ranking in the S&P Corporate Sustainability Assessment further strengthens our standing with the global retailers. We enter FY27 with confidence ' targeting double-digit growth, backed by structural tailwinds, a strong balance sheet, and a business that has proven its resilience.

The board has recommended a dividend of Re 0.10 per equity share (10%) for FY26, subject to shareholder approval, with July 10, 2026 as the record date.

The board also approved a buyback of up to 1.44 crore equity shares at Rs 175 per share, aggregating up to Rs 252 crore, representing up to 6.52% of paid-up equity capital and free reserves, with May 22, 2026 fixed as the record date.

Separately, the company approved the acquisition of a 26% stake in CleanMax Dhyuthi for Rs 7.6 crore to enhance renewable energy supply for its Vapi facility in Gujarat.
