Profitability & Margins

Q3 FY26 saw an 11.1% top-line growth, following prior quarter growth of 5-6%, indicating steady recovery.
EBITDA margin dip to ~10% in Q3 was a one-off due to brass price increase, higher trade discounts, and phasing impacts; expected to revert to 13-14% by Q4 FY26.
Margins of 15-17% anticipated in second half of FY27 as price increases take effect and demand improves.
Management expects sustainable double-digit growth in Q4 and the coming financial year.
New product introductions and market expansion initiatives are expected to drive demand and growth going forward.
Strong balance sheet and disciplined cost management support selective investments for growth.

Capital Expenditure Plans
