capex

Any current/future capex/capital investment/strategic investment?

revenue

Future growth expectations in sales/revenue/volumes?

- Cummins India expects double-digit revenue growth for the full year 2025-26 over the previous fiscal year. - Power generation domestic sales growth remains strong, with 49% increase year-on-year in Q2, supported by data center projects, although data center order execution is lumpy and may not sustain at the same levels going forward. - Distribution segment growth of around 20%-21% is expected to sustain, driven by an increased asset base and maintenance demands. - Industrial business growth is moderate; construction demand impacted by monsoons may recover with increased construction activity; mining demand awaits new Coal India tenders. - Exports face medium-term challenges with softer demand due to inventory correction and economic issues in export markets; double-digit export growth over next 5 years is unlikely. - Data center business is growing but with project-based lumpy demand; near-term growth may moderate. - Continuous efforts ongoing to reduce lead times and expand capacity, especially in power gen and data center segments.

margin

Future growth expectations in earnings/operating earnings/profits/EPS?

- Cummins India Limited expects double-digit revenue growth for the full fiscal year 2025-26. - Growth in power generation segment led by broad-based demand, especially from data centers, commercial realty, and industrial sectors. - Data center orders seen as somewhat lumpy and project-based; not all growth is expected to sustain at the same high levels. - Exports growth outlook is moderate, with challenges in global markets like Europe, Latin America, and Africa; double-digit export growth over the next 5 years is unlikely. - Industrial segment growth may be impacted by monsoon delays and slower Coal India mining tenders; construction demand could rebound with improved activity. - Margins may see pressure due to commodity cost increases but balanced by cost reduction initiatives and product mix. - Profit before tax for Q2 FY 2025-26 rose 41% YoY; continued margin management and cost control efforts are in place to sustain profitability.

orderbook

Current/ Expected Orderbook/ Pending Orders?

- The order book for data center projects tends to be lumpy, depending heavily on site clearances and execution timing by hyperscalers. - The high volume of data center project execution in the recent quarter is not expected to repeat to the same extent in the next half-year. - Export order intake shows some softness currently due to inventory corrections in channel markets. - Domestic orders remain diversified across power generation segments with consistent quarter-on-quarter demand. - The company is continually working on reducing lead times and improving capacity to handle rising demand, especially in the data center segment. - Specific timelines for data center order fulfillment vary depending on the product nodes and order certainty; no fixed delivery period can be reliably quoted. - Government marine procurement and commercial marine segments show growing interest but remain small contributors with tender-dependent order flows.
