KPIT Technologies Q4 Profit Falls 33% Year-on-Year Amid Revenue Growth

KPIT Technologies reported a 33% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit to Rs 163 crore for Q4 FY26 despite a 12% revenue increase to Rs 1,711 crore. Sequentially, profit rose 22%, aided by recovery from prior one-time costs and steady automotive software demand. The quarter saw higher expenses, including increased finance costs and forex losses linked to a term loan and currency depreciation. The company announced a final dividend of Rs 5.25 per share and highlighted growth prospects in automotive AI and cybersecurity.
