Strategic Updates and Outlook
Management highlighted that the growth was achieved despite headwinds such as rupee depreciation and geopolitical crises impacting crude oil prices. The company continues to focus on its "Unlock 2.0" strategy to accelerate, premiumize, and transform the business. Its mobility subsidiary, Tirex, crossed the ₹100 crore revenue milestone during the year, securing a significant share of the new DC charger market for buses. Looking ahead, the company aims to maintain its margin band of 12%-14% despite input cost inflation. Expansion projects at Chennai and Silvassa plants are on track, with Chennai capacity expected to come online by Q3FY27 and Silvassa by Q4FY27.
