SRF Q2 Results & Aluminium Foil Capex Plan

SRF Limited’s board has approved a investment of approximately ₹600 crore ($63.35 million) to establish a specialized aluminum foil manufacturing facility in Jetapur, Madhya Pradesh. Operated through its wholly owned subsidiary, SRF Altech Ltd, the plant will produce high-grade aluminum foil designed for lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries, catering directly to the rapidly growing electric vehicle (EV) and energy storage systems (ESS) sectors. Planned for a total annual capacity of 12,000 metric tonnes, the project will be executed in two equal phases of ₹300 crore ($31.68 million) each. Phase one is scheduled for completion by September 30, 2028, followed by phase two by September 30, 2030, marking SRF’s strategic expansion into advanced battery component supply chains. Alongside its capital investment roadmap, SRF Limited reported strong financial performance for the second quarter of FY27, with consolidated net profit surging 31% year-on-year to ₹509 crore ($53.74 million). Revenue from operations expanded 35% to ₹4,904 crore ($517.80 million), while operational EBIT climbed 26% to ₹816 crore ($86.16 million). Growth was led by the performance films and foil business, which saw revenues jump 51% to ₹2,122 crore ($224.06 million), while the technical textiles segment grew 25% to ₹595 crore ($62.82 million). Chairman and Managing Director Ashish Bharat Ram emphasized that the company's strong operational results and targeted capex in sunrise sectors position SRF for long-term growth despite global macroeconomic uncertainties.

SRF Q2 revenue rises 35%, chemicals remain weak

SRF Ltd ( SRF ) reported 35% YoY revenue growth to ₹4,904 crore in Q2FY27. The key concern remains specialty chemicals, where recovery is taking longer than expected despite management maintaining its growth guidance. SRF’s Q2 performance was mixed. Revenue growth was supported by fluorochemicals, while the films & foil and technical textiles businesses delivered strong growth. Films & foil revenue rose 51% YoY, while technical textiles grew 25% YoY. However, EBITDA of ₹945 crore missed Street expectations and margins fell to around 21%. What matters is not the revenue growth but the quality of that growth. In the chemicals segment, operating EBIT grew only 10%, much slower than revenue. Pricing pressure in specialty chemicals, Chinese oversupply and higher input costs continue to weigh on profitability. This explains why investors remain cautious even as management expects the chemicals business to deliver revenue growth at the higher end of its 15-20% guidance range for FY27. SRF's non-chemical businesses are currently helping offset weakness in specialty chemicals. Films & foil margins improved on record production and value-added products, while technical textiles benefited from export demand and new customer additions. These segments are supporting earnings, but specialty chemicals remains the largest variable for valuation and future profit growth. The company has also approved a ₹600 crore aluminium foil investment aimed at battery and advanced packaging applications. What to watch next is whether specialty chemicals sees a meaningful recovery in volumes and realizations during H2FY27. A pickup in agrochemicals and pharmaceutical intermediates could improve sentiment, but margin recovery remains the key monitor. View: Earnings recovery depends mainly on specialty chemicals. Until margins improve meaningfully, investor confidence is likely to remain tied to execution in that business.

SRF's profit rises 31%, but margins hit an eight-quarter low

SRF SRF Limited (SRF) reported Q2 FY27 consolidated revenue of ₹4,904 crore, up 35% year-on-year. Net profit rose 31% to ₹509 crore, but EBITDA margin fell to 19.3% from 21.3%. This is why I would not judge the quarter by profit growth alone. EBITDA increased 22% to ₹946 crore, which means earnings grew more slowly than revenue. That gap matters. If sales continue to rise faster than operating profit, the company may be facing cost pressure or a less profitable sales mix. The segment numbers show a mixed picture. Performance Films & Foil revenue surged 51% to ₹2,122 crore, with operating profit up 73%. Chemicals revenue increased 25% to ₹2,079 crore, but operating profit grew only 10%. That difference is worth watching. Stronger sales in chemicals have not translated into equally strong operating-profit growth. SRF has also approved approximately ₹600 crore for a battery-grade aluminium foil facility with planned annual capacity of 12,000 tonnes. Phase I is expected by September 2028, with Phase II by September 2030. This could give SRF exposure to battery and energy-storage supply chains. But the returns will depend on utilisation, customer demand and the economics of the new facility. The investment itself does not guarantee attractive returns. My view: SRF is growing, but margin recovery matters more than another quarter of headline revenue growth. I would watch whether chemicals profitability improves, whether the films business sustains its performance and how the battery-foil investment progresses. My stance: The growth story remains credible, but I would want evidence of margin stabilisation before becoming more positive.
