“L&T posts strong Q1 profit, but DIIs trim holdings amidst moderate FII buying.”
Larsen & Toubro, India's infrastructure giant, delivered a robust Q1 2026, with net profit up 15.51% YoY to ₹4,988 Cr on revenues of ₹67,942 Cr, reflecting strong operational performance. However, DIIs reduced their stake by 0.31% QoQ, contrasting with a 0.35% increase by FIIs.
