Schneider Electric Infrastructure shares tumble 12% after Q1 profit plunges 70% YoY

The company’s consolidated net profit for the June quarter stood at Rs 12 crore, sharply lower than Rs 41 crore reported in the corresponding quarter last year.

Revenue from operations, meanwhile, rose around 5% YoY to Rs 651.4 crore, compared with Rs 621 crore in Q1FY26. The company attributed the relatively moderate revenue growth to project execution timelines and the phased conversion of recent order wins into sales.

Profitability takes a hit

The sharp decline in earnings was largely reflected at the operating level. EBIT fell to Rs 32.1 crore in Q1FY27 from Rs 66.7 crore a year earlier. According to the company, profitability was impacted by commodity price volatility and delays in passing on higher input costs on certain legacy orders.Despite the near-term pressure on earnings, Schneider Electric Infrastructure continues to maintain a strong order book, which could provide visibility for future revenue growth.

He added that while profitability was affected by commodity cost volatility and delays in passing through cost increases on certain projects, the company remains focused on operational excellence, project execution and improving business quality.

Stock performance and Technical outlook

The sharp Monday decline adds to the stock’s recent weakness, with shares having remained under pressure for some time. However, the longer-term performance remains impressive. The stock has delivered around 40% returns over the past one year, while it has surged nearly 265% in three years.The company currently commands a market capitalisation of around Rs 29,146 crore, while its 52-week high stands at Rs 1,548.

On the technical front, the stock’s 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 51.1. An RSI below 30 is generally considered to indicate an oversold zone, while a reading above 70 is viewed as overbought. With the RSI currently near the middle of the range, the indicator does not point to an extreme oversold or overbought condition.
