- The company sees a mixed market picture with some segments subdued and others growing (Page 5). - Pipeline for Process Automation and Motion segments is reasonable, with expected conversions in Q3 and Q4 of 2025 (Page 16-17). - Base orders have shown growth, with a solid order backlog over INR 10,000 crores to be executed over 18-24 months (Page 8-10). - Revenues reached an all-time high for the second quarter in 5 years, indicating strong execution capability (Page 8). - Large order intake is currently softer, especially from heavy industries and data centers, but base orders remain strong (Page 7-10). - Government CAPEX is picking up and expected to be a key factor driving recovery and growth (Page 12-13). - Mid-term outlook (from next year onwards) is optimistic for momentum recovery led by electrification, energy transition, and digitalization trends (Page 12). - Growth focus continues on Tier-II/III markets and emerging segments like pharma, transport, building and infrastructure (Page 5, 8).

- The company anticipates a mixed near-term outlook due to market softness and headwinds like QCO compliance and import content challenges. - Base orders show steady growth (~5%), but large orders have moderated, impacting growth momentum temporarily. - Recovery expected mid-term (from next year onwards), with optimism on momentum gaining back as macro factors (government CAPEX, easing inflation) improve. - Market segments like railways, metro, data centers, energy transition, and digitalization offer growth opportunities. - Profitability affected in current quarter by higher imported component use and FOREX impacts, but efforts underway to optimize mix and pricing. - Long-term sustainability and localization initiatives support margin improvement. - No formal guidance is provided; management aims to get back toward earlier PAT margin band of 12%-15% as market normalizes.
