MRF Ltd reported a 13-28% year-on-year decline in net profit for Q2 FY27, with figures ranging from Rs 369 crore (standalone) to Rs 417 crore (consolidated), due to rising raw material costs amid global uncertainties. Despite this, revenue grew 17-18% to over Rs 8,500 crore, supported by steady tyre demand from automakers. The company declared an interim dividend of Rs 3 per share, with November 17 as the record date and payment starting December 1. Cost pressures and supply challenges are expected to persist.
