Margins could be sustained at healthy approximately 16% levels over FY26-28. "With revival in earnings growth, we slightly raise the target PE to 33 times vs. 30 times earlier, in line with its historic 10-year average. After a 52% sharp rally in the last three months, the risk-reward appears stretched," it added.Despite leadership in the tiles industry, Kajaria Ceramics has been posting single-digit sales volume growth for eight quarters now.The brokerage had expected gradual volume revival from H2-FY25, but the company's volumes stayed lacklustre, likely impacted due to higher freight rates, leading them to divert supply to the domestic market.Going forward, Jefferies estimates Kajaria Ceramics' volume growth to stay weak at 5.6% year-on-year in FY26, which led the brokerage to cut its FY27-28 EPS by 3.4%.Key downside risks include a slowdown in construction and housing demand, a spike in fuel costs, and rising competition from Morbi.
