Management Commentary
Mr. Pulkit Seth, Vice-Chairman & Non-Executive Director,
“We are pleased to deliver another quarter of encouraging performance in FY26 despite a challenging macroeconomic and geopolitical environment. Our 9M FY26 revenue grew by 13.2% and EBITDA by 14.0% YoY.
India operations are expected to gain significant momentum following the reduction of U.S. tariffs to 18%, removing the burden of the additional 25% duty and enhancing profitability. The India–EU and UK FTAs further strengthen growth prospects by enabling us to leverage existing customer relationships.
Bangladesh’s capacity expansion remains on track for completion by Q2 FY27, while Indonesia and Vietnam continue to operate at optimal utilization levels. Supported by tariff relief, FTAs, and capacity readiness, we are well positioned to scale efficiently and deliver sustained long-term value.”
Mr. Pallab Banerjee, Managing Director,
“We delivered a resilient performance in Q3 and 9M FY26, with revenue of INR 3,711 crore and EBITDA of INR 333 crore. Adjusted EBITDA margins stood at ~10.1% after normalizing for tariffs and ramp-up costs, reflecting the strength of our diversified operating model and execution discipline.
The removal of U.S. tariffs eliminates discount pressure extended to customers during the tariff period, directly improving profitability from February onwards. With trade agreements now covering key global markets and capacity in place, Pearl Global is well positioned to regain momentum in India from FY27 and capitalize on broader global opportunities.”
