Three changes stood out: revenue up on a year earlier for 12 quarters in a row (every quarter we can compare), foreign funds (FIIs) cut their stake for 3 quarters in a row and indian funds and insurers (DIIs) raised their stake for 3 quarters in a row. 1. Revenue up on a year earlier for 12 quarters in a row (every quarter we can compare) In the September 2026 quarter revenue was ₹4,762 crore, +26.2% on a year earlier. Why: Revenue rose because the company sold more tyres, led by car makers and export customers. Next results: check whether replacement tyre volumes bounce back after temporary production limits, with rural two-wheeler demand still strong. From the earnings call on 15 Oct 2026. 2. Foreign funds (FIIs) cut their stake for 3 quarters in a row From 16.9% to 13.4% of the company by the September 2026 quarter. 3. Indian funds and insurers (DIIs) raised their stake for 3 quarters in a row From 20.5% to 23.3% of the company by the September 2026 quarter. ## What are CEAT's latest quarterly results?

CEAT is on 2 of our India lists: 52 week high & low and Small & mid cap stocks. - [52 week high & low 52-week position: Near 52-week low](https://www.sectoralpha.in/52-week-high-stocks-india) - [Small & mid cap stocks Size rank in India: 499](https://www.sectoralpha.in/small-cap-stocks-india) ## Is CEAT profitable? CEAT Ltd earned ₹112 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, −39.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹697 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 4.8% a year on average. That is 2.4% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹186 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹697 Cr (+48.0% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +26.2% on a year earlier and the margin moved −3.0 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +17.5% and revenue +24.5%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does CEAT make, and is it growing? CEAT Ltd reported ₹4,762 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, +26.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 12th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 11.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹15,678 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹17,456 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹15,678 Cr, +18.6% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +24.5% on average, against 11.1% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +24.5%, against +18.4% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew +4.3%, against −3.9% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does CEAT keep? CEAT Ltd's operating margin was 10.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 3.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 8.0% and 14.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −3.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −6.3 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is CEAT's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 255% of CEAT Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹1,786 Cr of operating cash against ₹697 Cr of profit. After ₹2,252 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹466 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 255% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle stayed about the same between FY21 and FY26, so the cash follows profit, not the cycle. What to look at next: the bigger use of cash is spending on new assets, at 2.3× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does CEAT's cash go? CEAT Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was −21 days in FY26, down from −16 days in FY21. It spent ₹4,154 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 43 days to pay, and stock sits for 68 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹15,678 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹43.0 Cr, so roughly −₹902 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 43 days to pay and stock sat for 68 days, about 2.2 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of −21 days, shorter than FY21's −16. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 68 days. Customers pay about 43 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 132 days. Together that makes the −21-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹4,154 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹1,769 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 ₹638 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is CEAT's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? CEAT Ltd's P/E is 23.5×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 71% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 17.6×, 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 ₹127.51. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +47.7% while the price moved −17.4%. 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 +21.3% a year; about +9.6% a year came from earnings growth and about +11.7 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more); over 10 years the price moved +10.7% a year; about +2.9% a year came from earnings growth and about +7.8 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). 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 high against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the CEAT business getting better or worse? CEAT Ltd's business is slowing from a peak. Profit and EPS growth have slowed sharply (profit growth from +763.6% at its peak to +4.3% now), while ROCE is still 16.7%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: slowing from a peak is where good stories often end quietly. ## How much does CEAT earn on its capital? CEAT Ltd earned a ROCE of 19% in FY26. That is up from a low of 6% in FY22. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 2.4 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 4.4% net margin and 1.13× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 4.4% net margin × 1.13× asset turnover × 2.76× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 13.7% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 9.6% − 12.0% = −2.4 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 9.6% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 13.2%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does CEAT have too much debt? CEAT Ltd has total debt of ₹4,065 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹4,969 Cr as of Sep 2026, so its debt is 0.82× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.68 in FY22 to 0.65 in FY26. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the CEAT shareholding pattern? Domestic institutions raised their stake in CEAT Ltd by 3.5 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Domestic institutions now own 23.3% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −3.2 points over the same period, to 13.4%. 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 23.3%; Foreign institutions: −3.2 points over 8 quarters, to 13.4%; Promoters: +0.1 points over 8 quarters, to 47.3%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions moved −3.2 points and domestic institutions +3.5 points over 8 quarters, while promoters stayed about the same. One group of institutions took over shares from the other; it is not a change of mind by the people running the company. ## How far is CEAT from balance-sheet trouble? For CEAT 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 CEAT rank in its industry? 56.0 out of 100, rank 3 of 8 in Tyres & Tubes, with 85% of the evidence available. CEAT Ltd scores 56.0 out of 100 against the 8 companies it is compared with in Tyres & Tubes, ranking 3. 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: 15.7 + 17.4 + 13.5 + 9.4 = 56. 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 CEAT compared with? CEAT ranks 3 of 8 Tyres & Tubes companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 56.0 out of 100. 1.

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.
