Synopsis:-Grasim Industries posted its highest-ever quarterly consolidated revenue of Rs. 51,101 crore and record EBITDA of Rs. 8,011 crore in Q4FY26, with every major business segment cement, cellulosic fibres, chemicals, paints, and financial services reporting year-on-year improvement; the results, filed with BSE and NSE on May 20, 2026, validate the conglomerate’s multi-year investment cycle as new businesses begin contributing meaningfully to profitability.
Shares of the flagship company of the Aditya Birla Group came into focus after it disclosed its highest-ever quarterly and annual earnings, with the Q4FY26 results filing revealing broad-based growth across its sprawling portfolio spanning building materials, cellulosic fibres, chemicals, financial services, and renewable energy.
With a market capitalisation of Rs. 2,03,000.51 crore, the shares of Grasim Industries Limited were trading at Rs. 2,971 per share, up 1.22 percent from its previous closing price of Rs. 2,935.2 apiece. It is trading at a P/E of 21.64.
Consolidated revenue from operations for Q4FY26 came in at Rs. 51,101 crore, up 15 percent year-on-year from Rs. 44,267 crore. EBITDA for the quarter stood at a record Rs. 8,011 crore, up 22 percent year-on-year, with an EBITDA margin of 16 percent. Adjusted PAT (owner’s share, excluding exceptional items) grew 31 percent year-on-year to Rs. 2,041 crore (reported consolidated net profit attributable to owners stood at Rs. 1,957 crore)
For the full year FY26, consolidated revenue grew 18 percent to Rs. 1,75,431 crore and EBITDA grew 29 percent to Rs. 25,872 crore, an expansion in consolidated margin from 13 percent in FY25 to 15 percent.

Net debt (excluding financial services borrowings) stood at Rs. 36,915 crore as of March 2026, with a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 1.43x, down from 1.77x a year earlier, a material improvement in leverage given the pace of expansion.
Cement Crosses 200 MTPA, Birla Opus Closes in on #2
The building materials segment, which houses UltraTech Cement, Birla Opus (paints), and Birla Pivot (B2B e-commerce), delivered revenue of Rs. 30,042 crore in Q4FY26, up 19 percent year-on-year, and segment EBITDA of Rs. 5,386 crore, up 22 percent. UltraTech’s total grey cement capacity crossed the 200 MTPA milestone in April 2026, making it the world’s largest cement company outside China, with the company targeting 240-plus MTPA by March 2028.
Birla Opus, the paints business in which Grasim has invested heavily since FY23, posted sequential revenue growth of 19 percent and volume growth of 17 percent in Q4FY26. Revenue market share crossed an estimated 10 percent in March 2026, with the company now claiming the third position in organised decorative paints. The combined market share of Birla Opus and Birla White Putty is approaching the second position, a notable shift in a market that was essentially a two-player duopoly not long ago. Institutional sales more than tripled year-on-year. Birla Pivot, the B2B e-commerce platform, more than doubled revenue year-on-year, though both Birla Opus and Birla Pivot remain in an investment phase with a stated roadmap for profitable growth.
Cellulosic Fibres: Record Volumes, Margin Recovery
The cellulosic fibres segment reported Q4FY26 revenue of Rs. 4,614 crore, up 14 percent year-on-year, with EBITDA more than doubling to Rs. 588 crore from Rs. 293 crore in Q4FY25. The recovery was driven by record CSF (Cellulosic Staple Fibre) sales of 232 KT up 12 percent year-on-year aided by higher specialty fibre mix (26 percent of volumes versus 21 percent in Q4FY25) and benign wood pulp prices. Cellulosic Fashion Yarn (CFY) volumes remained flat, weighed down by muted downstream textile demand and continued pressure from low-priced imports. The company’s Phase 1 Lyocell capacity of 55 KTPA is progressing toward a mid-2027 commissioning date.
Chemicals: Caustic at Record Volumes, Specialty Squeezed
Revenue from the chemicals segment grew 7 percent year-on-year to Rs. 2,458 crore in Q4FY26. Caustic soda sales hit a record 321 KT in the quarter, up 11 percent year-on-year, driving EBITDA up 3 percent to Rs. 304 crore. Specialty chemicals revenue grew 5 percent year-on-year but profitability was compressed by higher epichlorohydrin (ECH) input prices. Chlorine integration, a key measure of downstream value capture, reached 67 percent in FY26 and is targeted at around 70 percent post commissioning of ongoing ECH and CPVC projects.
Financial Services: Aditya Birla Capital Scales Up
Aditya Birla Capital (52.29 percent subsidiary) reported revenue growth of 10 percent year-on-year in Q4FY26 to Rs. 13,422 crore, with PAT growing 32 percent year-on-year to Rs. 1,097 crore. The total lending portfolio (NBFC and housing finance combined) expanded 32 percent year-on-year to Rs. 2,07,368 crore, with the housing finance book growing 53 percent. Total assets under management across the AMC, life insurance, and health insurance businesses reached Rs. 5,91,343 crore, up 16 percent year-on-year. The D2C digital platform ABCD crossed 11 million customer acquisitions.
