Siemens Ltd's Q2 FY27 numbers came in mixed, with revenue of Rs. 5,734.00 Cr (+17.00% YoY) and PAT growth of +4.80% YoY. Here's a quick read of what worked, what to watch, and what management said.
| Results date | November 06, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Revenue (Q2) | Rs. 5,734.00 Cr (+17.00% YoY) |
| PAT (Q2) | Rs. 504.20 Cr (+4.80% YoY) |
| EBITDA margin | 10.92% (-152 bps YoY) |
| EPS (Q2) | Rs. 14.16 (+4.80% YoY) |
Revenue accelerated to +17.0% YoY (+21.6% QoQ) with orders up 37.8% and a record Rs.47,034 cr backlog, but a 38.1% YoY materials-cost spike held EBITDA growth to 2.7% and PfO margin 194 bps below year-ago. Sequential margin recovery (+195 bps QoQ) and a 1.55x cash conversion show the price/cost squeeze easing, while Digital Industries missed its 6–8% margin band for a second quarter and Mobility margins slipped. Growth is on track; the margin bands are the swing factor for the next 2–4 quarters.

| Mobility margin | ~10% benchmark | 7.46%, down from 11.11% year-ago and 10.16% Q1 | Contradicted |
