Track LIVE Stock Market Updates Nelcast Q1 results In the April to June 2025 quarter (Q1FY26), Nelcast reported 57.2 per cent year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth in consolidated profit after tax (PAT) of ₹12.5 crore. The company had posted PAT of ₹8.0 crore in Q1FY25. Total revenue increased 11.1 per cent Y-o-Y at ₹336.0 crore. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (Ebitda) jumped 44.3 per cent Y-o-Y at ₹32.4 crore, margin improved 222 bps at 9.6 per cent from 7.4 per cent in the year-ago quarter. The margins have strengthened significantly, with Ebitda per kg rising 24 per cent Y-o-Y to ₹14.7 per kg, reaffirming guidance to reach ₹15 per kg by the end of FY26. While FY25 was a year of consolidation, FY26 is about building a strong foundation for the future, the company said. Nelcast FY26 Outlook The tractor segment saw robust growth, supported by a favourable monsoon, while MHCV and other segments delivered steady performance. Despite early concerns around tariff-related uncertainties in key export markets, the management believes the impact will be limited and manageable. Exports grew by 17 per cent Y-o-Y to ₹115 crore, and the management remains optimistic about long-term opportunities, especially with the UK FTA expected to shift sourcing preferences to India. The management said the company's strategic focus on new product development and capacity optimisation in FY26, laying the groundwork for accelerated growth over the next two years. The company reaffirmed Ebitda per kg guidance of ₹15 per kg for FY26, driven by margin expansion and operational efficiencies. Several other new product samples are also in progress, setting the stage for meaningful growth in FY27 and FY28. Meanwhile, Nelcast enjoys the confidence of its valued customers for providing quality products. Therefore, as newer and more advanced castings are developed, the company has an edge over the competition due to its diverse capabilities. It has made significant investments to increase capacity and is poised to take advantage of the growth from both the domestic automotive industry and the global market, Nelcast said in its FY25 annual report. About Nelcast Nelcast manufactures grey and ductile castings for the M&HCV and tractor industry segments. Around 30-35 per cent of its overall revenues are also generated from export markets. Key products supplied to its M&HCV clients include differential carriers, differential cases, bogie suspension brackets, and conventional brackets, among others.

INR extends recovery in opening trades; Weak cues from equities and dollar strength could limit upside
The Indian rupee continues to recover lost gains in opening trades on Friday even as dollar strength firmly above 99 mark could restrict upward momentum in the counter. Moreover, local equities are seen concerned over U.S. tariffs and as economic growth overshadow positive earnings from major tech companies. Yesterday, rupee recovered 22 paise from its all-time low to 87.58 against the US dollar on Thursday, amid lower crude prices and slight pullback in dollar. US President Donald Trump's announcement of 25 per cent tariffs on Indian imports and a penalty for buying Russian Crude has severely dragged the rupee to lifetime lows in the previous session. On Wednesday, rupee plunged 89 paise, logging its steepest single-day fall in over three years. The benchmark BSE Sensex fluctuated before ending the session down 296.28 points, or 0.36 percent, at 81,185.58 while the broader NSE Nifty index closed at 24,768.35, down 86.70 points, or 0.35 percent, from its previous close.
