Graphite India shares surged 18% as GrafTech announced a 30% global price hike for graphite electrodes, a move expected to significantly boost margins for India’s largest manufacturer. The stock’s strength is further underpinned by a 28.4% year-on-year rise in Q1 FY27 net profit to ₹172 crore and an expanded EBITDA margin of 17.1%.

  • According to GN stocks/shares-surge, the rally is fueled by GrafTech’s specific announcement of a minimum 30% hike in global electrode prices, which is expected to act as an immediate margin multiplier for the company. The report also highlights that Graphite India’s Q1 FY27 EBITDA margin expanded to 17.1% alongside a 28.4% jump in net profit, signaling a structural turnaround for domestic producers.
