Brokerage views on JTL Industries: Nuvama Institutional Equities

According to analysts at Nuvama, JTL Industries posted weak Q1FY26 results due to inventory losses of ₹1,000 per ton, higher discounting for DFT pipes, and a change in product mix. 

 

"While JTL may miss H1FY26 guidance of 250,000 tons, it is eyeing 500,000 tons for FY26. Moreover, Ebitda per ton guidance is now down to ₹4,000 from ₹4,200–4,400 earlier. Given a subdued showing and weak commentary, we are cutting

FY26E/27E/28E EPS by 14 per cent each. Considering the constant underperformance, we are cutting the target multiple from 22x to 18x," the brokerage said.

  Nuvama has maintained a ‘Buy’ rating with a target price of ₹110.

"With the phase-wise volume expansion in progress, we model Revenue/Ebitda/PAT CAGR of 25/36/26 per cent over FY25-28E. After the weak Q1FY26 results, we cut our FY26/27 Ebitda estimates as we factor in lower sales price realisation," Axis Securities said in a note.

 

According to the brokerage, execution of the growth projects and market acceptance of the key DFT, colour-coated, GI Coil, and ARW pipes, which the company will introduce over the upcoming quarters, will be the key monitorables.

 

Axis Securities has maintained a 'Hold' rating on the stock with a target price of ₹78
