Stocks to watch on August 11, 2025
Tata Motors
Tata Motors, one of India’s largest automotive manufacturers, reported a net profit of Rs 3,924 crore for April-June FY26, a 30% fall from Rs 5,643 crore a year ago. The drop came despite steady sales in certain segments, as operating performance weakened sharply, EBITDA slid 36% to Rs 9,700 crore. Revenues were also marginally lower at Rs 1.04 lakh crore compared to Rs 1.07 lakh crore last year.
Bharti Airtel
Telecom major Bharti Airtel made headlines not for earnings this time, but for a stake sale. Indian Continent Investment, a promoter entity, offloaded about 1% of Airtel’s equity, equivalent to 60 million shares raising Rs 11,200 crore through a block deal. The sale attracted interest from domestic and foreign institutional investors, both long-only and existing shareholders.
Siemens India
Engineering and technology giant Siemens India saw its April-June (Q3 FY25) profit slip 3% year-on-year to Rs 423 crore, largely due to lower other income. However, operational performance stayed strong with revenues up 15.5% at Rs 4,347 crore. The company’s order book remains a bright spot. New orders rose 13% to Rs 5,680 crore, and the total backlog climbed 8% to Rs 42,845 crore.
Voltas
For Voltas, the summer season usually its busiest was disrupted by an early onset of monsoon and unseasonal rains. This hit demand for air conditioners and cooling products, causing a 58% plunge in net profit to Rs 140.6 crore. Revenues dropped 20% to Rs 3,912 crore from Rs 4,903.9 crore a year ago.
Manappuram Finance
Manappuram Finance’s Q1 FY26 numbers told a story of two extremes. Overall net profit tumbled 75% to Rs 138 crore from Rs 555 crore last year. The gold loan business, traditionally the company’s mainstay, saw revenues rise 10% to Rs 1,904 crore and remained profitable with a PBT of Rs 538.8 crore.
But the microfinance segment suffered heavily, with revenues falling over 53% to Rs 361 crore and posting a pre-tax loss of Rs 437 crore versus a profit last year. The company also declared an interim dividend of Rs 0.50 per share, with August 14 as the record date.
Shipping Corporation of India
State-owned Shipping Corporation of India delivered a mixed performance. Net profit rose 22.8% to Rs 366.3 crore in Q1 FY26 from Rs 298.3 crore last year, aided by cost efficiencies and better margins. However, revenue declined 13.1% to Rs 1,316 crore, reflecting weaker freight rates and lower cargo volumes. Operating profits dipped 3.8% to Rs 489.6 crore, but margins widened to 37.2% from 33.6%.
Power Mech Projects
Infrastructure services provider Power Mech Projects posted a stellar quarter, with profits jumping 30% year-on-year to Rs 80.5 crore and revenues climbing 28% to Rs 1,293 crore. EBITDA surged 49% to Rs 170.4 crore, expanding margins to 13.2% from 11.3%.
DOMS Industries
Stationery and art products maker DOMS Industries delivered strong top-line growth, with revenues up 26.4% to Rs 562 crore in Q1 FY26. Profits grew 10.5% to Rs 57.3 crore, though EBITDA margin narrowed to 17.5% from 19.4% a year earlier, reflecting higher input costs. The Gujarat-based company declared a final dividend of Rs 3.15 per share, with September 15, 2025 as the record date.
Puravankara
Bengaluru-based real estate developer Puravankara slipped into a Rs 68.5 crore loss in Q1 FY26, compared to a Rs 14.4 crore profit in the same quarter last year. Revenues fell over 20% to Rs 524.4 crore.
Brigade Enterprises
Another Bengaluru real estate name, Brigade Enterprises, announced the launch of Brigade Cherry Blossom, a premium plotted development in Malur, East Bengaluru. The project, spread over 20 acres with 338 plots in two configurations, has a revenue potential of Rs 225 crore.
