Sudhir Rai, Chairman & Managing Director, said: “Supported by a favourable macroeconomic backdrop, including GST rationalization, a healthy monsoon, and a steadily improving demand environment, the Company delivered a strong performance during the third quarter of FY26. Revenue for Q3FY26 stood at Rs 177.5 crore, representing a growth of approximately 18.3% compared to Q3FY25. EBITDA for the quarter was Rs 23.5 crore, translating into a healthy margin of 13.2%. For the nine months ended FY26, the Company reported revenue of Rs 447.8 crore, reflecting a YoY growth of approximately 2.8%. EBITDA for the period stood at Rs 54.4 crore, with margins at 12.1%, underscoring sustained operational discipline despite a transitioning demand environment in the earlier part of the year. The Company’s capacity expansion initiatives continue to progress in line with planned timelines. Trials at the axle beam extrusion plant are currently underway, with commissioning expected by February 2026. Upon commissioning, the facility is expected to enhance axle manufacturing capacity by approximately 50%. In addition, construction of the seamless tube facility has been completed. On the exports front, the company achieved meaningful progress during the period. Purchase orders were secured from a leading Tier-1 company in Europe across two distinct product families. Samples were successfully dispatched, and supplier approval has been obtained for one family of parts, against which initial trial orders have already been received. Exports contributed 3.8% of total revenue during 9M FY26, registering a YoY growth of 14%. The Company remains confident of achieving a full-year export contribution of 5% and has laid out a clear roadmap to scale exports to double-digit levels by FY27. During the quarter, the Company further diversified its product portfolio with the launch of a key product in the trailer segment—the tipping jack. This addition is expected to strengthen the company’s positioning within the trailer ecosystem and provide incremental revenue opportunities beginning FY27. The manufacturing facility for the product has been fully installed, production has commenced, and the product is currently undergoing the validation phase. The Company also expanded its forging capabilities by commissioning a 2,000-tonne screw press and a 1,000-tonne press. Additionally, a 1,600-tonne press is scheduled for commissioning by February 2026. These investments are expected to materially enhance forging capacity, improve operational efficiency, and support future growth across product segments. In the trailer segment, the Company added five new fabricator customers during the quarter. Continued focus on expanding the fabricator customer base is further strengthening market penetration and improving demand visibility in this segment. The tractor segment delivered healthy revenue growth of 16% during 9MFY26, with strong momentum carrying into Q4. The Company has witnessed an earlier-than-usual improvement in schedule visibility, with OEM production schedules increasing meaningfully from February itself. Over the next two years, the Company aims to increase the tractor segment’s contribution to approximately 15% of total revenue. Overall customer engagements continue to reflect a strengthening demand environment, evidenced by higher production schedules and increased inward volumes. This positive momentum has extended into Q4, with schedules for the quarter remaining healthy. Combined with an improving working capital cycle, new product launches, a healthy order book pipeline, and ongoing capacity expansion initiatives, the Company remains confident of delivering a strong performance in the fourth quarter of FY26.” Result PDF
