This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What changed at ACC this quarter? Three changes stood out: lowest operating margin in 16 quarters, foreign funds (FIIs) cut their stake for 3 quarters in a row and profit down on a year earlier for 4 quarters in a row. 1. Lowest operating margin in 16 quarters Operating margin was 7% in the September 2026 quarter, against 14% a year earlier. Why: Operating margin was low because some plants are very high cost and inefficient. Next results: check whether those high cost plants are phased down and how many tonnes are affected. From the earnings call on 29 Oct 2026. 2. Foreign funds (FIIs) cut their stake for 3 quarters in a row From 6% to 5.8% of the company by the September 2026 quarter. 3. Profit down on a year earlier for 4 quarters in a row In the September 2026 quarter profit was ₹93 crore, -91.7% on a year earlier. Why: Profit fell because some plants are very high cost and inefficient. Next results: check whether phasing down those high cost plants cuts costs. From the earnings call on 29 Oct 2026. ## What are ACC's latest quarterly results? For July to September 2026 (the quarter ended 30 September 2026), ACC reported revenue of ₹5,689 crore, down 5.3% from ₹6,005 crore a year earlier, and a profit of ₹93.0 crore, down 91.7% from ₹1,119 crore. ### ACC results: July to September 2026 against a year earlier | Measure | July to September 2026 | July to September 2025 | Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Revenue | ₹5,689 crore | ₹6,005 crore | −5.3% | | Profit | ₹93.0 crore | ₹1,119 crore | −91.7% | | Earnings per share | ₹4.95 | ₹59.59 | −91.7% | | Operating margin | 7.0% | 14.0% | −7.0 points | The next results, for October to December 2026, are due by 14 February 2027: listed companies must publish quarterly results within 45 days of the quarter's end (60 days for the January to March quarter).

On the call for July to September 2026, held on 29 October 2026, ACC's management spoke about the quarter; the main points are below.

ACC is on 2 of our India lists: 52 week high & low and Small & mid cap stocks. - [52 week high & low 52-week position: At 52-week low](https://www.sectoralpha.in/52-week-high-stocks-india) - [Small & mid cap stocks Size rank in India: 347](https://www.sectoralpha.in/small-cap-stocks-india) ## Is ACC profitable? ACC Ltd earned ₹93.0 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, −91.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year Mar 2026 profit was ₹2,137 Cr. Over 11 years profit has grown 12.5% a year on average. That is 1.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹1,119 Cr. For the full year, Mar 2026 profit was ₹2,137 Cr (−11.0% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −5.3% on a year earlier and the margin moved −7.0 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −71.0% and revenue +3.9%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does ACC make, and is it growing? ACC Ltd reported ₹5,689 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, −5.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 11 years it has grown 7.5% a year on average. The last full year, Mar 2026, came in at ₹25,962 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹25,126 Cr. Mar 2026 revenue was ₹25,962 Cr, +19.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +3.9% on average, against 7.5% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +3.9%, against +11.7% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew −73.6%, against −34.3% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does ACC keep? ACC Ltd's operating margin was 7.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 7.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 9.0% and 19.0%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −7.0 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −3.7 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is ACC's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 49% of ACC Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, a gap worth watching. In Mar 2026 its operations used ₹1,364 Cr of cash, against ₹2,137 Cr of profit. After ₹1,711 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹3,075 Cr: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 49% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 96 days longer between FY20 and Mar 2026, so more of each rupee of profit waits in the business before it arrives. When less than 70% of profit comes in as cash, it is the thing to watch on this page. What to look at next: less of the profit turns into cash than it should, and the cash cycle is 96 days longer. The next section looks at where the cash is stuck. ## Where does ACC's cash go? ACC Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 32 days in Mar 2026, up from −64 days in FY20. It spent ₹7,291 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 54 days to pay, and stock sits for 58 days on average. At Mar 2026 sales of ₹25,962 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹71.1 Cr, so roughly ₹2,276 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. Mar 26: customers took 54 days to pay and stock sat for 58 days, about 1.9 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 32 days, longer than FY20's −64. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 58 days. Customers pay about 54 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 80 days. Together that makes the 32-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹7,291 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹3,004 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is building well beyond replacing what wears out. Work still in progress is ₹2,227 Cr (Mar 2026): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: cash is getting stuck in the daily cycle, so watch the cycle more than the profit. ## What is ACC's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? ACC Ltd's P/E is 24.2×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 53% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 23.1×, over 11 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. The P/E here, and its history, use a profit figure that can leave out one-off items, so it can differ from a P/E worked out on the quarterly results. Those results' earnings per share for the four quarters to Sep 2026 add up to ₹46.99. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −11.0% while the price moved −35.6%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved −13.4% a year; about −15.9% a year came from earnings growth and about +2.5 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more); over 10 years the price moved −2.3% a year; about +3.2% a year came from earnings growth and about −5.5 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is about average against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the ACC business getting better or worse? ACC Ltd's business is getting worse. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking: profit growth is −73.6% in the latest quarter, against +377.5% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE falling at 5.9%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. ## How much does ACC earn on its capital? ACC Ltd earned a ROCE of 11% in Mar 2026. That is up from a low of 9% in Mar 2023. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 8.1 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 8.2% net margin and 0.94× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (Mar 2026): a 8.2% net margin × 0.94× asset turnover × 1.34× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 10.3% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 3.9% − 12.0% = −8.1 percentage points. The 12.0% is a standard assumption for the cost of capital in India, not an estimate for this company. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 3.9% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 10.0%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does ACC have too much debt? ACC Ltd has total debt of ₹513 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹20,680 Cr as of Sep 2026, so its debt is 0.02× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.01 in FY23 to 0.02 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the ACC shareholding pattern? Domestic institutions cut their stake in ACC Ltd by 3.5 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Domestic institutions now own 21.0% of the company. Foreign institutions moved +0.3 points over the same period, to 5.8%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Domestic institutions: −3.5 points over 8 quarters, to 21.0%; Foreign institutions: +0.3 points over 8 quarters, to 5.8%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 56.7%. Why the owners changed: domestic institutions drove it (−3.5 points). They reduced their stake. ## How far is ACC from balance-sheet trouble? For ACC Ltd, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does ACC rank in its industry? 40.4 out of 100, rank 18 of 26 in Cement, with 85% of the evidence available. ACC Ltd scores 40.4 out of 100 against the 26 companies it is compared with in Cement, ranking 18. The valuation scores well, but earnings are not improving yet, so the business does not back up the low multiple so far. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 5 + 10.8 + 15.7 + 8.9 = 40.4. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is ACC compared with? ACC ranks 18 of 26 Cement companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 40.4 out of 100. 1.

They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

The operating margin was 7.0%, 7.0 percentage points lower than a year earlier (as of 4 November 2026). ### What is ACC's market cap? ACC Ltd's market capitalisation is ₹22,258 Cr at a share price of ₹1,185.30. Market cap is the share price times the number of shares, so it changes whenever the price moves (as of 4 November 2026). ### How is ACC performing? ACC Ltd's share price has been falling for 106 weeks. In its latest quarter, revenue fell 5.3% and profit fell 91.7% compared with a year earlier. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the NIFTY 500, for 56 weeks running (as of 4 November 2026). ### Will ACC's share price go up? This page does not forecast ACC Ltd's share price. What it shows instead: the share price is ₹1,185.30, and it has been falling for 106 weeks. Its P/E of 24.2× is higher than 53% of its own last 11 years (as of 4 November 2026). ### Who owns ACC? Promoters own 56.7% of ACC Ltd, foreign institutions 5.8%, domestic institutions 21.0% and the public 16.4% (latest quarter). The biggest change over the last two years: Domestic institutions cut their stake by 3.5 percentage points over 8 quarters (as of 4 November 2026). ### Does ACC have too much debt? No, ACC Ltd has little debt: its debt is 0.02× its equity, and its operating profit is 26 times its interest bill. Mar 2026 borrowings were ₹429 Cr against equity of ₹20,551 Cr. So the returns on this page come from the business, not borrowed money (as of 4 November 2026). ### Where is ACC in its business cycle? ACC Ltd's Mar 2026 operating margin was 11.0%, against a 13-year range of 9.0% to 19.0%: the low end of its own range, which is often where recoveries start. The latest quarter was 7.0%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 4 November 2026). ### What could break the ACC story? Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 4 November 2026). ### Is ACC a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: ACC Ltd's share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer. The main open question: the next one or two quarters of results. Every number on this page is worked out by code from the published figures, with no forecasts and no price opinions (as of 4 November 2026). ## Lists - 52 week high & low: https://www.sectoralpha.in/52-week-high-stocks-india - Small & mid cap stocks: https://www.sectoralpha.in/small-cap-stocks-india This is research, not advice.
