what happened

Schaeffler India shares drew attention on Wednesday, October 28, after the company reported its September quarter. TradingView notes that margins were weak, although most other measures grew year on year. Net profit rose 20.7% to ₹349 crore from ₹289 crore a year earlier. Revenue reached ₹3,089.4 crore, up 26.9%. EBITDA climbed 17.8% to ₹537 crore, yet the margin slipped from 18.7% to 17.4%.

The company blamed rising input costs and a weaker rupee for the margin squeeze, which was partly offset by mitigation measures. Strong automotive demand and industrial output supported growth, and both exports and the domestic business expanded at double-digit rates. Promoters may sell a small part of their stake but intend to keep at least two-thirds of the equity; at the end of September they held 74.13%.

why it matters

The shares closed the previous session 4.7% higher at ₹3,680 apiece. Still, they are down 7% over the past month, 14.1% over six months and 4.9% so far in 2026, and sit 17% below their 52-week high of ₹4,467.7. For the market, margin direction and a possible promoter stake sale matter more than revenue growth alone.
