KPI Green Energy shares tumbled 9% on Tuesday, August 11, touching an intraday low of ₹336 on the NSE. The sell-off followed the release of the company’s financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, which revealed a drop in net profits due to escalating expenses.
Key Financial Highlights
- Net Profit: Consolidated net profit after tax fell 17.6% year-on-year to ₹86 crore, down from ₹104 crore in the corresponding period last year.
- Revenue: Revenue from core operations grew 15% year-on-year to ₹694 crore, compared to ₹603 crore previously.
- Expenses: Total quarterly expenses surged 24.5% to ₹579 crore, largely driven by a 13% increase in raw material costs to ₹362.23 crore.
- EBITDA: Operational earnings (EBITDA) rose 32% to ₹246 crore, with EBITDA margins expanding to 35.39% from 30.84%.
Market Performance and Outlook
The recent decline brings the stock near its 52-week low of ₹335.65, marking a 30% drop year-to-date in 2026. Despite near-term cost pressures, management remains optimistic, citing long-term growth drivers such as rising power demand in India, expanding data center requirements, and national green energy targets.
