- Net profit rose 25.4% to ₹1,044 million for FY26 on 9.3% revenue growth to ₹3,416 million.
- EPS increased to ₹7.54 from ₹6.36, aided by higher other income and lower finance costs.
- Board added four promoter group entities, including Indicon Projects and Urvi Multicon.
Why this matters
The profit jump is notable for a company that completed its IPO during the year, raising ₹3,731 million in net proceeds. The results show the business delivering growth for shareholders just as it entered the public market. The promoter-group update, however, is the kind of ownership-tidying that follows an IPO and carries no direct financial signal.
What we're watching
- How the ₹3,731 million IPO cash is deployed over the next year.
- Whether revenue growth accelerates from the 9.3% FY26 pace.
- The financial trajectory of the newly added promoter group entities.
The full read
Ellenbarrie Industrial Gases' first full year as a public company delivered a 25.4% jump in net profit to ₹1,044 million. Revenue grew a more modest 9.3% to ₹3,416 million, meaning the profit expansion was driven partly by other factors — higher other income and lower finance costs. EPS rose to ₹7.54 from ₹6.36. The company also raised ₹3,731 million from its IPO during the year, giving it a fresh equity cushion. The board added four entities to the promoter group, a tidy-up that follows the public listing. For a stock still pricing in its IPO, the market had already digested these numbers through prior calls. The fresh question is how the new capital gets spent.
