| Results date | November 12, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Revenue (Q2) | Rs. 841.32 Cr (+85.94% YoY) |
| PAT (Q2) | Rs. 123.75 Cr (+105.58% YoY) |

Quarter Snapshot
Q2 FY27 revenue nearly doubled YoY to Rs.841.32 Cr with PAT up 105.58% to Rs.123.75 Cr, and EBITDA margin of 20.9% crossed management's 20%+ FY27 target ahead of schedule. Cash conversion normalized (CFO/PAT 1.008x), working capital days compressed, debt was repaid to nil, and a Rs.600 Cr QIP funds capacity expansion including the 2-pole generator segment. The main caveat is that the margin gain is partly flattered by a Rs.68.79 Cr inventory build, with underlying contribution margin roughly stable at 33.47%.
Q2 FY27 Expectations vs Results
| Driver | Expected before results | What happened | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue / demand | "likely ahead… whether Q2 sustains it" | Consol revenue +85.94% YoY, +31.44% QoQ (Rs.841.32 Cr) | Played out |
| Margins | "compressing pressure vs the 19.0% Q1 print… the squeeze, not the gain, dominates" | EBITDA margin 20.90% vs 19.41% in Q1 on the same computed basis | Contradicted |
| Copper squeeze on material cost | "the pressure point" | Contribution margin 33.47% vs 32.94% YoY — buffered by the 8.18%-of-revenue inventory build | Partially |
| Sep-30 cash reflects Rs.75 Cr preferential, not the QIP | "should… reflect the Rs.75 Cr preferential allotment… but not the Rs.600 Cr QIP" | Equity proceeds Rs.75.00 Cr in H1 financing; QIP post-quarter | Played out |
| Receivables watch | "receivables vs the Rs.785 Cr Q1 level, inventory days" | Rs.952.93 Cr absolute; days 117.7 vs 145.9 at Mar-26 | Partially |
| Tariff/Turkey November update | "promised November-call update" | Not addressed in the filing — remains open for the call | Not observable |
| Interim dividend | "on the Nov 12 board agenda" | Declared Rs.0.65/share | Played out |

| EBITDA margin 20%+ by FY27 | Q2 FY26 earnings call (Oct 31, 2025) | Q2 FY27 P&L-derived margin 20.9% (20.6% ex other income); company's own ex-treasury basis not exactly computable from the filing | On Track |
