Revenue & Sales Performance

  • Communication segment margins currently low single digits, expected to improve to 8-10% post stabilization of new preform plant and fiber draw units.
  • FMEG segment (fans, water heaters, lighting, switches, switchgear) is under product development; target of INR 500 crores revenue by 2028 remains on track.
  • Impact of macro factors: Housing demand currently moderate due to market conditions; infrastructure demand strong but tender-driven and selective participation planned.
