Quarter Snapshot

Revenue grew 30.5% YoY to Rs.1,984.50 Cr with exports up 57.1%, but EBITDA margin compressed 244 bps YoY to 15.51% as material costs outgrew revenue, and management's guided Q2 margin expansion from indirect-material savings did not materialize. H1 margin of 15.74% sits ~226 bps below the 18% FY27 target, making the goal difficult without sharp H2 recovery. Cash conversion deteriorated to 0.48x CFO/PAT with negative FCF of −Rs.150.03 Cr and borrowings up Rs.236 Cr, making growth balance-sheet funded.
