1. At a Glance
Rushil Decor reported revenue of ₹228.87 crore for the quarter ended June 2026, against ₹177.29 crore a year earlier — a 29.1% increase. Operating Profit came in at ₹18.22 crore versus a negative ₹2.00 crore in the June 2025 quarter, which is one of those rare year-on-year comparisons where the base is doing most of the heavy lifting simply by having been below zero. Net Profit was ₹2.03 crore. EPS was ₹0.07.
Sequentially, the quarter was almost eerily still on the top line: ₹228.87 crore against ₹230.38 crore in March 2026, a gap of ₹1.51 crore, which for a company of this size is roughly the accounting equivalent of standing perfectly still. Operating margin was 7.96%, against 11.45% in the previous quarter.
The company disclosed a planned shutdown at its Mansa, Gujarat unit from 1 April 2026 for technological upgradation, running until around 20 April, with an estimated sales loss of ₹4 crore. Management described the quarter’s operating environment as affected by elevated chemical and raw material prices, higher freight costs and shipping route disruption arising from the conflict in West Asia.
Market capitalisation stands at ₹501 crore. Borrowings at March 2026 were ₹259.88 crore, down from ₹295.77 crore two years earlier. The Jumbo Laminates line — the newest thing in the building — recorded ₹110 million of revenue at a 20.6% EBITDA margin in the quarter.
2. Introduction
Rushil Decor Ltd was incorporated in 1993 and started life manufacturing decorative laminates. Per Infomerics, the company was promoted by the Ahmedabad-based Thakkar family and forayed into MDF in 2012, becoming, in that rating agency’s phrasing, one of the largest MDF players in the country within a short span. Thirty-two years on, the corporate identity is a company that pressed sheets of paper together very hard for two decades and then decided to also grind wood into fibre and press that together very hard, which is either diversification or a deeply consistent worldview about materials.
The manufacturing base now runs to six facilities: laminates at Gandhinagar, Gujarat; MDF at Chikmagalur, Karnataka and Vishakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh; and PVC at Chikmagalur. Installed capacity is 62,92,000 sheets per annum for laminates including 28,00,000 sheets of Jumbo Laminates, 3,30,000 CBM per annum for MDF, and 5,400 tonnes per annum for PVC. Per Infomerics, the Vishakhapatnam MDF facility commenced commercial operations from 5 March 2021, and the PVC plant was commissioned during FY18 with a capacity of 12,480 CBM.
The recent chapter is mostly about one project. The company inaugurated its jumbo laminate plant in Gujarat on 30 April 2025 with 1.2 million sheets of annual capacity, announced Phase 2 trial production on 10 October 2025 adding 1.6 million sheets per year, and per Infomerics, commercial production across both phases has now started. Funding this involved a preferential issue of ₹122.66 crore, of which ₹93.04 crore had been received per the monitoring agency report of 28 January 2026, with 10,00,000 warrants forfeited and a 24% shortfall reported.
Meanwhile, the quarter also carried a fire. The company’s press release of 11 August 2025 disclosed a fire at the MDF plant causing a 43-day shutdown, with an insurance claim filed — which explains why the base quarter this year’s numbers are compared against had an Operating Profit that had gone below the horizon.

3. Business Model: WTF Do They Even Do?
Three things, sold under the VIR brand family, all of them variations on the theme of flat rectangular surface that furniture is made from.
Laminates are high-pressure laminates made by stacking multiple layers of kraft paper and decorative sheets and applying heat and pressure until they stop being paper and start being a table top. The company lists 1,200+ designs, which is 1,200 more ways to have an opinion about wood grain than most people knew were available. Applications: residential furniture, commercial furniture, table tops, wall panelling, office partitions, cabinet doors. FY2026 laminates revenue was ₹2,111 million.
MDF is engineered wood panel — wood fibres processed into boards of consistent density. It is the single biggest business, at ₹6,091 million of FY2026 revenue, and it comes with a logistics personality: per Infomerics, MDF is a logistics-intensive industry and the company majorly caters to the Southern Indian states of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Kerala from its Chikmagalur and Visakhapatnam units. Wood, resin and wax go in one end; boards for doors, partitions and architectural mouldings come out the other.
PVC is the smallest of the three at ₹359 million of FY2026 revenue, a waterproof panel line running out of a single Chikmagalur plant at 5,400 tonnes a year. In a portfolio measured in sheets and cubic metres, PVC insists on being measured in tonnes, which is a lot of unit-conversion self-confidence for a business contributing this share.
Distribution: 700+ direct distributors, 4,700+ retailers and dealers, and sales into 59 countries. The workforce is 3,000+. Per Infomerics, exports contribute roughly 30–35% of total revenue, with the Middle East and Asian markets as major destinations. Management added Honduras and Greece as new export markets during the quarter, and added 15 direct distributors and 46 retailers/dealers.
