Last updated: Feb 25
Question 1: What were the volume growth figures for 9M FY25, and is the 10-12% annual target achievable with 15% growth in Q4?
Rajesh Jain stated 9M FY25 volume growth was ~6%, with a 15% Q4 target achievable due to improved demand in wires and cables. Sequential margin recovery and commodity price stabilization support this outlook.
Question 2: How is capex allocation progressing, and what is its impact on cable segment growth?
Capex of Rs.500 crore (FY24-25) is on track, with expansions largely completing by March 2025. Cable revenue contribution is rising (9M growth: ~20%), driven by new capacities and higher-margin exports. A Rs.1,200 crore capex plan for FY26-28 aims to add Rs.4,000"“4,500 crore annual revenue.
Question 3: What is the export outlook amid Red Sea disruptions and geopolitical challenges?
Export revenue grew 11% YoY in Q3 despite headwinds. Demand recovery is expected in Q4 as logistics stabilize and certifications (e.g., U.S., Europe) enhance global reach. Europe contributes >50% of exports; U.S. accounts for ~10%.
Question 4: What drove domestic wire volume decline (-1.9%) in 9M FY25?
Weak H1 FY25 demand due to copper price volatility and channel inventory adjustments impacted wire volumes. Recovery is anticipated in Q4 with improved demand and government infrastructure spending.
Question 5: How is the FMEG segment performing, and when will it breakeven?
FMEG revenue grew ~25% YoY in 9M FY25, led by fans (45% of segment revenue). Losses narrowed due to cost optimization and premiumization. Breakeven (EBITDA-level) is targeted by Q1 FY26.
Question 6: How will double-digit EBITDA margins be achieved?
Margin improvement will stem from higher cable sales (target: 35% of revenue), premium exports, operational efficiency, and scale benefits. Wire and cable margins aim for 8% in Q4, with company-level double-digit targets by FY28.
Question 7: Is industry wire overcapacity a risk?
Wire demand is brand-driven, with organized players gaining share post-GST. Near-term risks exist, but cable growth (e.g., solar, infrastructure) and export diversification mitigate reliance on domestic wires.
Question 8: What is the capacity utilization across segments?
Wire utilization is 65-70%, while cables operate at 90-95%. New capacities (Q4 FY25) will ease constraints, supporting volume growth.
Question 9: How did copper volatility impact margins vs. peers?
Sharp H1 copper price swings delayed price pass-through, temporarily affecting margins. Stability in Q3-Q4 allowed sequential recovery, with margins expected to normalize.
Question 10: What is the FMEG product mix and capex plan?
FMEG revenue: 45% fans, 32% lighting, 23% appliances/switches. Capex is minimal (~Rs.25 crore annually), as 2/3 of products are outsourced. Premiumization and distribution expansion drive growth.
