Kaynes Technology shares plunged over 19% after the company reported a 21.5% YoY decline in Q4FY26 profit and missed its revised FY26 revenue guidance. Weak margins, lower-than-expected quarterly revenue triggered sharp selling pressure in the stock despite strong annual revenue and EBITDA growth.
Shares of MTAR Technologies Limited saw a surge of strong buying interest on Wednesday after the company posted better-than-expected financial results for the fourth quarter and the full financial year ended March 31, 2026. As of 11:33 AM IST on May 13, 2026, the stock was changing hands at ₹6,706, gaining ₹457.50 or about 7.32% over its previous close of ₹6,248.50.
Shares of Kaynes Technology India witnessed heavy selling pressure on Thursday, 14 May, plunging over 19% during intraday trade after the company posted disappointing March quarter earnings and failed to meet its FY26 revenue guidance.
The stock opened sharply lower at ₹3,760.10 compared to its previous close of ₹4,177.85 and slipped as much as 19.4% to hit an intraday low of ₹3,366. Weak profitability, margin contraction, and multiple brokerage downgrades weighed heavily on investor sentiment.
Kaynes Technology announced its Q4FY26 earnings after market hours on 13 May. The company reported a consolidated net profit of ₹91.22 crore, marking a 21.5% YoY decline from ₹116.20 crore posted in the same quarter last year.
However, revenue from operations continued to show healthy growth, rising 26.2% YoY to ₹1,242.64 crore from ₹984.5 crore in Q4FY25.
EBITDA during the quarter increased 15.4% YoY to ₹193.7 crore compared to ₹167.9 crore a year ago. Despite the growth in operating profit, EBITDA margin narrowed to 15.6% from 17.1%, reflecting pressure on profitability.
The company’s PAT margin also weakened significantly, falling to 7.3% from 11.8% in the year-ago period.
On a full-year basis, Kaynes Technology delivered strong growth in revenue and earnings despite a softer fourth quarter.
The company recorded FY26 revenue of ₹3,626.4 crore, up 33.2% YoY from ₹2,721.8 crore in FY25.
Annual EBITDA rose 39.8% YoY to ₹574.1 crore, while EBITDA margin improved to 15.8% compared to 15.1% in the previous year.
Net profit for FY26 climbed 24% YoY to ₹363.9 crore from ₹293.4 crore. However, PAT margin moderated to 10% from 10.8% in FY25.
Market sentiment turned negative after the company failed to achieve its revised FY26 revenue target.
Kaynes Technology had earlier projected FY26 revenue of ₹4,500 crore before lowering the guidance to ₹4,100 crore. To achieve the revised target, the company needed nearly ₹1,700 crore revenue in the March quarter. However, Q4FY26 revenue came in at only around ₹1,242 crore, well below expectations.
The weaker-than-expected quarterly performance and shortfall in guidance raised concerns regarding execution capabilities and near-term growth momentum.
Commenting on the performance, Ramesh Kunhikannan said the company achieved ₹3,626.4 crore revenue in FY26 despite challenging market conditions and continued to maintain healthy long-term demand visibility.
He added that the company’s order book remained strong at over ₹8,000 crore as of FY26-end, offering solid revenue visibility going forward.
During the quarter, Kaynes Technology inaugurated its OSAT facility in Sanand, Gujarat, in the presence of Narendra Modi, Bhupendrabhai Patel and Ashwini Vaishnaw.
The company stated that the OSAT facility commenced commercial operations within 14 months of its groundbreaking ceremony, while its HDI PCB manufacturing unit is nearing operational readiness.
Kaynes Technology also strengthened its board by appointing M. Annadurai and Rajesh Mittal as Independent Directors.
Kaynes Technology shares have declined nearly 3% so far this year, while the benchmark BSE Sensex has fallen around 8% during the same period.
Over the past one year, the stock has corrected approximately 11%, with Thursday’s steep fall adding further pressure on market sentiment surrounding the company.
