| Results date | November 13, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Revenue (Q2) | Rs. 7,302.98 Cr (+45.10% YoY) |
| PAT (Q2) | Rs. 671.13 Cr (+36.20% YoY) |

Quarter Snapshot
Consolidated revenue grew 45.1% YoY to Rs.7,302.98 Cr with broad-based segment growth, but the reported owners' PAT surge of +130.8% is entirely attributable to a one-time Rs.374.77 Cr GCPL stake-sale gain; normalized owners' PAT fell ~18.3% YoY. Estate & Property PBIT fell 81.8% YoY, Crop Care and Dairy turned loss-making, and finance costs rose 38.3% YoY against negative H1 operating cash flow of Rs.(4,854.12) Cr. GPL's FY27 booking guidance remains on track at 42.7% coverage, but the investment case rests on the normalized earnings picture and the debt-funded growth model rather than headline PAT.
Q2 FY27 Expectations vs Results
| Driver | Expected before results | What happened | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| GPL Q2 bookings checkpoint | "supportive backdrop for GPL's Q2 bookings checkpoint against the >Rs.39,000 Cr FY27 guidance" | H1 Rs.16,659 = 42.7% of guidance; Q2 Rs.8,008, H1 +7% YoY — absolute), Partially (growth pace decelerated | Played out |

Management Guidance vs Delivery
| What management said | Where | What happened | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| GPL residential bookings > Rs.39,000 Cr, FY27 | GPL FY27 booking guidance stated by management with prior-quarter results ("a 20% increase over FY26") | H1 Rs.16,659 = 42.7% of the floor (Q2 Rs.8,008; H1 +7% YoY) | On Track |
| GPL operating cash flow ~ Rs.9,000 Cr, FY27 | GPL FY27 guidance from prior-quarter communications | GPL-level OCF not disclosed in this filing; H1 collections Rs.9,666 (+25%) exceed the full-year OCF target, but collections ≠ OCF | Too Early |

| GPL ROE 20% by FY28 | GPL guidance from prior communications | Not disclosed this quarter | Too Early |

| "Strong growth continues, with some margin pressure" (H1 FY27 headline) | GIL performance update, Nov 13, 2026 | Total income +22.8% H1 YoY, but PBDIT/total income fell to 22.13% from 26.45%; PBT −19.9% H1 YoY — growth confirmed, but profit levels fell, not just margins | Partially |
| Chemicals: "the rest of the year is expected to return to normal minus the tail winds" (war-driven demand/inflation tailwinds fading) | Performance update, Godrej Chemicals highlights | Q2 margin 8.51% already well below Q1's 13.72% peak; revenue +26%, volumes +13% — directionally consistent so far | Too Early |
