Supreme Industries Q2FY26 Concall Decoded: “Taparia Ji Bought Wavin Like It Was a Diwali Gift 🎁”
1. Opening Hook
When India was busy comparing crackers vs climate, Taparia quietly dropped ₹869 crore on a piping company and called it “routine capex.” Supreme’s Q2FY26 call felt like a calm physics lecture—except the professor just absorbed Wavin, launched silent pipes, window frames, and still gave a 550% dividend. While crude prices danced like crypto, Taparia said, “We are anti-fragile, and debt is not our hobby.” Read on — because this man treats ₹1,300 crore capex like grocery shopping.
2. At a Glance
Revenue ₹4,951 Cr (H1) – Up 2%; pipes growing faster than management’s excitement.
Volume 3.38 lakh MT – +8%; the real inflation is in tonnage.
EBITDA ₹656 Cr – Down 15%; CFO blames “rain, resin, and reality.”
PAT ₹367 Cr – Down 24%; the profit pipe leaked a bit.
Cash Surplus ₹49 Cr – Down from ₹944 Cr; Taparia says “temporary.” Bankers say “😳.”
Dividend 550% – ₹11 per share; proof optimism still flows better than PVC.
