K C P is not on any of our India lists this week.

K C P Ltd earned ₹55.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −38.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹276 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 9.0% a year on average. That is 7.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹89.0 Cr.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹276 Cr (+9.1% on the year before).

Why profit moved: revenue changed +15.1% on a year earlier and the margin moved −8.0 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner.

On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −16.4% and revenue +6.3%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth.

K C P Ltd reported ₹779 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +15.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 3rd quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown 7.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,576 Cr.

Revenue is everything the company billed its customers in the period.

The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,679 Cr.

FY26 revenue was ₹2,576 Cr, +1.9% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +6.3% on average, against 7.1% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing at about the same pace as its own long-run rate.

Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +6.5%, against −2.1% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew −17.1%, against −7.4% a year (rolling over).

K C P Ltd's operating margin was 8.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 8.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 8.0% and 22.0%. The latest quarter is within that range.

Operating margin is what is left from every ₹100 of sales after the costs of running the business, before interest and tax. It shows pricing power and cost control.

Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −8.2 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −9.7 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged.

Over the last 3 years, 58% of K C P Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, a gap worth watching. In FY26 it brought in ₹206 Cr of operating cash against ₹276 Cr of profit. After ₹289 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹83.0 Cr: it spent more than its operations brought in.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year.

Why 58% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 50 days longer between FY21 and FY26, 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 50 days longer. The next section looks at where the cash is stuck.

K C P Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 206 days in FY26, up from 156 days in FY21. It spent ₹529 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 22 days to pay, and stock sits for 226 days on average.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

At FY26 sales of ₹2,576 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹7.1 Cr, so roughly ₹1,454 Cr is tied up in the business at any time.

FY26: customers took 22 days to pay and stock sat for 226 days, about 7.4 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 206 days, longer than FY21's 156.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 226 days. Customers pay about 22 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 42 days. Together that makes the 206-day cycle.

Spending on assets: ₹529 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹259 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 ₹401 Cr (FY26): 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.

K C P Ltd's P/E is 11.4×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 23% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 14.1×, 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.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee of yearly profit.

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 Jun 2026 add up to ₹13.22.
