Sundram Fasteners reported a consolidated profit of ₹173 crore for the September quarter, supported by a 57% jump in exports. Revenue rose 30% to ₹1,985 crore. The company declared an interim dividend of ₹4.05 per share while continuing to invest in expansion projects for electric vehicles and non-auto segments.
Sundram Fasteners reported a steady performance for the second quarter of the 2026-27 financial year. The company posted a consolidated net profit of ₹173 crore, reflecting a 13% increase compared to the same period last year. Revenue from operations also saw a significant rise, climbing 30% to reach ₹1,985 crore, compared to ₹1,521 crore in the previous year. On a standalone basis, the company reported a profit of ₹160 crore.
International sales emerged as a key growth driver for the company during the quarter. Exports increased by 57% to reach ₹531 crore, showing that the company’s products are finding stronger demand in foreign markets. This growth helps the company reduce its reliance on the domestic market, where sales grew by 23% to ₹1,173 crore.
The company is currently executing a strategy to reduce its dependence on the traditional automotive sector. Management has allocated ₹281 crore in capital spending during the first half of the year. This money is being used to build capacity for new business areas, including electric vehicle components, hybrid technology, and non-automotive industrial products. For investors, the ability to successfully transition to these new segments while maintaining profit margins remains a key factor to watch, as these areas often have different competitive dynamics compared to standard auto parts.
The board has announced an interim dividend of ₹4.05 per share. This payout is a positive signal for shareholders, suggesting that the management remains confident in the company’s cash flow position despite the high spending on expansion.
Investors tracking the stock should monitor how these expansion projects translate into actual revenue in the coming quarters. While the current demand for auto components has been supportive, the sector can be sensitive to raw material price changes and global economic cycles. The successful ramp-up of the newer business verticals and the ability to sustain export growth will be important to observe as the company moves forward.
