The company also projected a sharp growth outlook for FY27 as global commercial vehicle markets stabilize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For FY26, consolidated revenue rose 11.2% year-on-year to \u20b916,812 crore, while EBITDA increased 5.9% to \u20b92,921 crore. However, standalone annual revenue declined 5.1% to \u20b98,396 crore due to weak export demand, particularly from North America\u2019s commercial vehicle market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Q4 results 2026 showed signs of improvement on a sequential basis. Standalone revenue climbed 8.5% quarter-on-quarter to \u20b92,260 crore, while profit before tax before exceptional items increased 9.7% to \u20b9486 crore. Export revenue also recovered to \u20b91,084 crore in the quarter as inventory corrections in the US truck sector eased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Domestic operations remained a key growth driver during the Q4 results 2026 period. Revenue from the domestic business increased steadily, helped by strong fleet replacement demand, rising utility vehicle sales, and stable industrial sector orders. The defence business emerged as a major highlight, with Bharat Forge securing \u20b92,816 crore worth of defence contracts during FY26. Its total defence order book reached a record \u20b910,961 crore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company also booked a \u20b9450 crore impairment related to its e-mobility investment business amid slower global EV adoption trends. Despite this, management maintained a positive outlook and expects nearly 25% revenue growth in FY27, backed by defence execution, export recovery, and strong Indian manufacturing demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bs-widget-title one\"><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span><i class=\"fas fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/span>Bharat Forge Q4 Results 2026 Highlights <\/h2><div class=\"border-line\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Metric<\/th><th>Q4 FY26 \/ FY26<\/th><th>Growth \/ Change<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Consolidated Revenue (FY26)<\/td><td>\u20b916,812 Crore<\/td><td>\u2191 11.2% YoY<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Consolidated EBITDA (FY26)<\/td><td>\u20b92,921 Crore<\/td><td>\u2191 5.9% YoY<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Standalone Revenue (Q4 FY26)<\/td><td>\u20b92,260 Crore<\/td><td>\u2191 8.5% QoQ<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Q4 PBT Before Exceptional Items<\/td><td>\u20b9486 Crore<\/td><td>\u2191 9.7% QoQ<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>EBITDA Margin (Q4 FY26)<\/td><td>27.0%<\/td><td>Slightly lower by 30 bps<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>FY27 Revenue Growth Guidance<\/td><td>Around 25%<\/td><td>Positive Outlook<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bs-widget-title one\"><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span><i class=\"fas fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/span>Business Segment Performance <\/h2><div class=\"border-line\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Segment<\/th><th>Q4 FY26 Revenue<\/th><th>Key Trend<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Export Business<\/td><td>\u20b91,084 Crore<\/td><td>Recovery seen after weak North America demand<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Commercial Vehicles (Export)<\/td><td>\u20b9344 Crore<\/td><td>Improved after inventory correction<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Passenger Vehicles (Export)<\/td><td>\u20b9302 Crore<\/td><td>Strong demand from Americas<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Domestic Business<\/td><td>\u20b91,063 Crore<\/td><td>Supported by CV and industrial demand<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Industrial Segment<\/td><td>\u20b9649 Crore<\/td><td>Stable growth from power &amp;
