Margin guidance

Category 3

- ABB India targets double-digit growth but acknowledges uncertainties may impact this, with potential growth around 10% or slightly less in the near term. - Growth is expected in three segments with varying margin profiles: • High-growth, technology-driven sectors with attractive margins but smaller current base. • Moderate growth sectors (8%-12%) with mixed margin impact. • Low-growth, high-volume sectors relying on capacity leverage for margin gains. - The company expects to maintain PAT margins in the 12%-15% range, driven by operational efficiencies and pricing from past quarters. - Capacity expansions are planned in smaller, growing units, especially in Process Automation, Electrification, and Motion segments to support volume growth. - The order backlog (~Rs. 9,958 crores) provides good revenue visibility in coming quarters. - ABB emphasizes balanced growth across segments leading to an overall 12%-15% growth pattern. - Macroeconomic factors and global uncertainties may delay order flows but management remains optimistic about underlying demand and margin stability.
