Strategic Growth and International Footprint​

Operationally, S Chand Group marked its first international acquisition in FY26. In January 2026, the company acquired 100% ownership of CPD Singapore Education Services Pte. Limited. CPD Singapore is a publisher specializing in supplementary books that adhere to the Singapore / IGCSE (A Level and O Levels) / IB Curriculum for the K12 school segment. This acquisition is designed to fill a product portfolio gap and prepare the group for this fast-growing educational segment.

The company maintained a strong financial standing, reporting Net Cash of Rs1,048 million at year end, and continuing to be net debt free.

Management Insights and Future Outlook​

Mr. Saurabh Mittal, Group CFO of S Chand And Company Limited, noted that the sustained high levels of Gross Margins and strong operating cash flows contributed significantly to the positive results. He highlighted that the Q4 performance was robust, with revenues up 16% YoY, EBITDA up 21% YoY, and PAT up 20% YoY from the previous year. He reiterated the target of generating over Rs400 million in revenue from the content licensing segment in FY27.

Mr. Himanshu Gupta, Managing Director of S Chand and Company Limited, provided an optimistic outlook for the future, citing the consistent adoption of both Old and New Syllabus books throughout the FY26 sales season.

He stated that the group expects FY27-28 to see complete adoption of the new syllabus books for the K12 segment, following the CBSE's announcement that new syllabi for Classes 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th would be launched over the next few months. Mr. Gupta emphasized that the international acquisition of CPD Singapore enhances the group’s curriculum capabilities for both the India and Asia markets, strongly supporting the overall growth trajectory.
