Three changes stood out: profit grew again in the September 2026 quarter, revenue up on a year earlier for 7 quarters in a row and lowest operating margin in 8 quarters. 1. Profit grew again in the September 2026 quarter Profit was ₹169 crore, +6.3% on a year earlier (₹159 crore), after 3 quarters of decline. 2. Revenue up on a year earlier for 7 quarters in a row In the September 2026 quarter revenue was ₹3,733 crore, +23.7% on a year earlier. Why: Revenue rose because the company sold more cement, with the Central India expansion doing most of the work. Next results: check whether Diwali and New Delhi construction restrictions slow cement sales. From the earnings call on 27 Oct 2026. 3. Lowest operating margin in 8 quarters Operating margin was 14% in the September 2026 quarter, against 15% a year earlier. Why: The margin fell because input costs rose faster than the prices the company could charge, and its price rises did not fully cover the extra cost. Next results: check whether recent price increases hold against higher coal and petcoke costs. From the earnings call on 27 Oct 2026. ## What are JK Cement's latest quarterly results? For July to September 2026 (the quarter ended 30 September 2026), JK Cement reported revenue of ₹3,733 crore, up 23.7% from ₹3,019 crore a year earlier, and a profit of ₹169 crore, up 6.3% from ₹159 crore. ### JK Cement results: July to September 2026 against a year earlier

## What to watch in JK Cement's next results? When JK Cement reports October to December 2026, these are the 3 checks that show whether the story is still on course.

## Is JK Cement profitable? J K Cements Ltd earned ₹169 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, +6.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹988 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 33.5% a year on average. That is 4.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹159 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹988 Cr (+13.3% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +23.7% on a year earlier and the margin moved −1.0 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −6.4% and revenue +17.7%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does JK Cement make, and is it growing? J K Cements Ltd reported ₹3,733 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, +23.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 7th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 12.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹13,722 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹15,116 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹13,722 Cr, +15.5% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +17.7% on average, against 12.1% 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 +17.3%, against +15.1% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −8.2%, against +7.3% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does JK Cement keep? J K Cements Ltd's operating margin was 14.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 1.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 13.0% and 24.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −1.2 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −0.6 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is JK Cement's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 218% of J K Cements Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹1,873 Cr of operating cash against ₹988 Cr of profit. After ₹2,458 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹585 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 218% 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 3.0× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does JK Cement's cash go? J K Cements Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 71 days in FY26, down from 73 days in FY21. It spent ₹5,409 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 20 days to pay, and stock sits for 249 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹13,722 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹37.6 Cr, so roughly ₹2,669 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 20 days to pay and stock sat for 249 days, about 8.2 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 71 days, shorter than FY21's 73. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 249 days. Customers pay about 20 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 198 days. Together that makes the 71-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹5,409 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹1,827 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 ₹1,055 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 JK Cement's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? J K Cements Ltd's P/E is 39.7×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 58% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 37.0×, 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 ₹123.98. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +15.3% while the price moved −18.2%. 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 +7.7% a year; about +3.1% a year came from earnings growth and about +4.6 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more); over 10 years the price moved +19.5% a year; about +31.6% a year came from earnings growth and about −12.1 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 JK Cement business getting better or worse? J K Cements Ltd's business is getting worse. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking: profit growth is −8.2% in the latest quarter, against +134.4% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE falling at 12.5%. 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 JK Cement earn on its capital? J K Cements Ltd earned a ROCE of 15% in FY26. That is up from a low of 7% in FY14. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 3.0 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 7.2% net margin and 0.74× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 7.2% net margin × 0.74× asset turnover × 2.63× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 14.0% 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: 9.0% − 12.0% = −3.0 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 9.0% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 10.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does JK Cement have too much debt? J K Cements Ltd has total debt of ₹7,490 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹7,392 Cr as of Sep 2026, so its debt is 1.01× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.97 in FY22 to 0.88 in FY26. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the JK Cement shareholding pattern? No group of J K Cements Ltd's owners changed its stake by a full percentage point over the last two years. Domestic institutions moved −0.1 points over the same period, to 22.3%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Foreign institutions: +0.8 points over 8 quarters, to 18.4%; Domestic institutions: −0.1 points over 8 quarters, to 22.3%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 45.7%. ## How far is JK Cement from balance-sheet trouble? For J K Cements 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 JK Cement rank in its industry? 47.3 out of 100, rank 13 of 26 in Cement, with 85% of the evidence available. J K Cements Ltd scores 47.3 out of 100 against the 26 companies it is compared with in Cement, ranking 13. A strong business with a high valuation: it would need rising earnings, or a lower multiple, to score better on value. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 16.3 + 17.9 + 3.2 + 9.9 = 47.3. 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 JK Cement compared with? JK Cement ranks 13 of 26 Cement companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 47.3 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. 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.
