Domestic ceramic tile and glass makers have warned that the FY27 budget's second phase of import-duty cuts could let cheaper imports undercut local production. Here is what it means for listed makers.
The federal government has allocated Rs46 billion for the Higher Education Commission (HEC) under the Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP) for fiscal year 2026-27, a move expected to boost demand for construction-related sectors.
Dadex Eternit agreed to sell its Manghopir, Karachi property to Aqeel Karim Dhedhi for Rs800 million, a second sizeable asset disposal by the loss-making building materials maker in 2026.
Shabbir Tiles and Ceramics swung to a third-quarter FY26 net loss of about Rs348 million, with revenue down roughly 22 percent year on year. Weak construction demand kept the tile maker in the red.
Ghani Global Glass reported nine-month FY26 net profit of Rs70.66 million, down 71 percent, as export sales fell 61 percent and margins narrowed. Heavy finance costs and a drop in other income deepened the fall.
Tariq Glass Industries reported a 16 percent drop in nine-month FY26 profit to Rs2.95 billion, as revenue fell 8 percent and gross profit shrank 20 percent. A demand slowdown and margin compression weighed on the glass maker.
Dadex Eternit agreed to sell a Karachi property in PECHS Block 6 to Sherjan Mosakhail & Sons for Rs1.85 billion. For the loss-making building materials maker, the disposal is a sizeable cash event.
Ghani Glass reported first half FY26 net profit of Rs2.4 billion, down 12 percent, but the fall was driven by a 64 percent jump in tax rather than the operating business. Pre-tax profit actually rose, helped by lower finance costs and higher other income.
Cement manufacturers in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have increased prices by Rs55 per bag, a move that is expected to improve their revenue and profit margins.
