Q1 Profit Rises 27.2%, Revenue Up 15.5%
LG Electronics India reported a 27.2% year-on-year rise in net profit to ₹652.8 crore in Q1 FY27 from ₹513.2 crore in Q1 FY26. Revenue increased 15.5% to ₹7,233.3 crore from ₹6,262.9 crore.
EBITDA rose 26.2% to ₹904.2 crore from ₹716.2 crore, while EBITDA margin expanded to 12.5% from 11.4%. The improvement in profitability was significantly faster than revenue growth, highlighting the impact of better margins and operating efficiency.
Why LG Electronics India Stock Surged
The positive market reaction was driven by the combination of stronger-than-expected earnings and improving profitability. Analysts highlighted stronger margins in the home entertainment business and a richer premium-product mix as key factors behind the Q1 performance.
Growth was broad-based across appliances, entertainment products, different price points and exports. The company has guided for mid-teen revenue growth in FY27 and expects EBITDA margin to reach early double-digit levels.
Margin expansion was also supported by premiumisation, operating leverage, price hikes and cost controls. Localisation and backward integration in compressors provided an additional boost to profitability.
Premiumisation and Tier-2, Tier-3 Expansion
LG Electronics India is also seeing increasing penetration of its Essential Series in tier-2 and tier-3 markets. This indicates that the company is expanding beyond premium products and larger urban markets, potentially creating additional growth opportunities.
The company's stronger product mix, wider market penetration and improving cost structure have strengthened expectations of sustained revenue growth and margin expansion.
