  "account": "Lohia Corp reported a significant surge in profit during the second quarter of fiscal year 2027, with profits after tax soaring 48.2% to ₹77.7 crore. This marked a stark contrast to ₹52.4 crore earned in the same period last year. The company's revenue growth was robust, with operations revenue increasing 42% year-on-year to ₹594.3 crore, compared to ₹418.4 crore a year ago. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) also saw a substantial rise of 33.3% to ₹115.5 crore. However, the EBITDA margin slightly decreased to 19.4% from 20.7% in the previous quarter.\n\nThe first half of fiscal year 2027 was even more impressive, with total revenue from operations reaching ₹1,097.4 crore, marking a 49.6% increase from ₹733.8 crore in the same period the previous year. Profits after tax more than doubled to ₹144 crore, up by an astounding 107.7% compared to ₹69.3 crore in H1 FY26. The figures underscore a stronger performance during the April-September period.\n\nAs of September 30, 2026, Lohia Corp's outstanding order book stood at an impressive ₹1,993.6 crore, more than doubling from ₹1,030.7 crore a year earlier. This offers a valuable glimpse into future production and execution activities. The machinery segment, which constitutes nearly 81% of total revenue, saw a near 44% increase in revenue to ₹480.8 crore during the September quarter. Aftermarket revenue also grew by 16% to ₹54 crore.\n\nCEO Raj Kumar Lohia attributed this remarkable growth to a combination of higher machinery sales and robust domestic demand. He emphasized that the company's expanding order book serves as a solid foundation for production planning. Looking ahead, Lohia Corp will focus on execution of orders, machinery demand, and operating margins as key indicators of its continued business performance.",
