Commenting on the performance Mr. Rushil Thakkar,
Managing Director said:

“The second quarter of FY2026 marked a period of
recovery and steady operational performance for Rushil Decor, as operations at
the Andhra Pradesh MDF facility returned to full normalcy following the one-off
disruption earlier in the year. Consolidated Revenue from Operations was Rs.
2,356 million in Q2 FY2026, a 2.3% increase year-on-year. For H1 FY2026,
Revenue from operation was Rs. 4,148 million. 

The MDF division continued to be the key revenue
driver, contributing Rs. 1,695 million in Q2 FY2026. Domestic MDF sales
increased by 5.2% year-on-year, supported by steady demand across retail and
OEM. Export revenue nearly doubled sequentially as shipments resumed
post-normalization of plant operations. The overall impact of lower volumes was
partly offset by improved realizations with blended realizations improving by
7.7% year-on-year, driven by better product mix and price stability.
Additionally in Q2 FY2026, the share of value-added products was 45% by volume
and 56% by value, underscoring the Company’s focus on quality and customer-oriented
offerings.

Operationally, the MDF plant achieved capacity
utilization of 79% during the quarter, reflecting near full recovery from the
April fire incident. With operations now fully stabilized, we are now focused
on optimizing production efficiency and improving cost structure amid external
challenges such as elevated resin prices and global trade-related issues
impacting input costs.

The Laminates division recorded revenue of Rs. 547
million in Q2 FY2026, an increase of 8.9% year-on-year. Growth was led by
stronger demand in the domestic market, where revenue increased 8.8%
year-on-year and volumes grew 12.8%. Export performance remained healthy,
supported by higher realizations across key geographies. The division capacity
utilization increased to above 90%, supported by the initial contribution from
the Jumbo Laminates facility at Gandhinagar. 

Commercial dispatches from the Phase 1 Jumbo Laminates
unit commenced during the quarter, and the products have started contributing
to the topline. The Company has also initiated trial production of Phase 2 of
the project. This expanded capacity will strengthen Rushil Decor’s position in
the premium laminate segment and cater to growing global demand for jumbo-size
sheets.

During the quarter, the Company added 10 new direct
distributors and over 40 retailers and dealers, further expanding its network.
Continued participation in international exhibitions and customer engagements
has helped widen the export base and enhance brand visibility in overseas
markets.

Sustainability remains an integral part of the
Company’s operations. Under its agroforestry program, Rushil Decor has
successfully planted over 24 million saplings across Andhra Pradesh, ensuring a
consistent and sustainable raw material supply chain while supporting local
farming communities. The Company is also planning the installation of solar
rooftop systems across its manufacturing facilities to reduce energy costs and
enhance environmental efficiency. Furthermore, The Company also received Rs.
114 million as incentives from the Government of Andhra Pradesh under the
Industrial Development Policy 2015–20, which includes power subsidy and stamp
duty reimbursement. 

Looking ahead, Rushil Decor remains focused on
improving capacity utilization, enhancing product mix and driving margin
recovery. The stabilization of MDF operations, expansion of laminates capacity
under the Jumbo Project and steady export traction are expected to contribute
to improved profitability in the second half of FY2026.”
