The full read
Igarashi Motors reported a near-50% fall in net profit for FY26, despite a modest 3.3% revenue increase. Audited numbers show net profit at ₹12.15 crore versus ₹24.17 crore last year, while revenue inched up to ₹865.92 crore. The board recommended a final dividend of ₹1.30 per share, subject to shareholder approval. The sharp profit erosion on stagnant topline indicates margin pressure, likely from rising costs or pricing constraints. This is a standard annual results disclosure, but the profit decline stands out as the key takeaway for investors.
