ABB India reported a strong Q4 CY2025 with orders surging 52% YoY, driven by a 27% base order growth and large project wins in data centers, transport, and automation. Full-year revenue grew 8% to INR 13,200 crore, with PAT at INR 1,669 crore and EPS of INR 78.78. The order backlog reached a record INR 10,471 crore, providing strong visibility. Management highlighted a revival in demand after a muted period, with positive momentum across emerging industries, infrastructure, and core sectors. Margins faced headwinds from higher material costs (QCO compliance, forex, commodity prices) and labor code impact, but PAT margin is expected to remain in the 12%-15% corridor. Guidance points to double-digit revenue growth aspirations, supported by private capex recovery, data center expansion, and the India-EU FTA. Key risks include global uncertainty, forex volatility, and competitive intensity from Chinese imports.
एबीबी इंडिया ने साल 2025 की चौथी तिमाही में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। ऑर्डर में पिछले साल की तुलना में 52% का उछाल आया, जिसमें बड़े ऑर्डर और डेटा सेंटर, परिवहन और ऑटोमेशन से मिले प्रोजेक्ट शामिल हैं। पूरे साल की कमाई 8% बढ़कर 13,200 करोड़ रुपये हो गई। मुनाफा 1,669 करोड़ रुपये और हर शेयर पर कमाई 78.78 रुपये रही। बकाया ऑर्डर 10,471 करोड़ रुपये के रिकॉर्ड स्तर पर पहुंच गए, जिससे भविष्य में कमाई की मजबूत संभावना है। कंपनी का कहना है कि मांग में सुधार हो रहा है, खासकर उद्योग, बुनियादी ढांचे और नई तकनीकों में। हालांकि, कच्चे माल की बढ़ती लागत और मजदूरी कानूनों के कारण मुनाफे पर दबाव है, लेकिन मुनाफा 12% से 15% के बीच रहने की उम्मीद है। कंपनी को आने वाले समय में दोहरे अंकों में कमाई बढ़ने की उम्मीद है। जोखिमों में वैश्विक अनिश्चितता, विदेशी मुद्रा में उतार-चढ़ाव और चीनी आयात से प्रतिस्पर्धा शामिल है।

Government has extended timelines for QCO phase 2 due to lab availability, but QCO is not rolled back; ABB is compliant.
UPDATED
PAT margin corridor of 12-15%
Management expects PAT margin to remain in the 12-15% range, factoring in QCO-related material costs for the next two quarters.
DROPPED
65%-70% of order backlog to be executed in 2025

NEW RISK
Global uncertainty and forex volatility
Global macroeconomic uncertainty and forex fluctuations could impact demand and margins.
NEW RISK
Higher material costs from QCO and commodity prices
QCO compliance and rising copper/metal prices have pushed material costs to 61% of revenue, pressuring margins.
NEW RISK
Competitive intensity from Chinese imports
Chinese competition in large projects remains a risk, though not yet materialized in recent quarters.
NEW RISK
Delayed decision-making in process automation
Order conversions in process automation have been delayed historically, posing risk to order book growth.
RISK GONE
Transient slowdown in private CapEx
Order growth moderated due to delayed decision-making in private capital expenditure, which could persist if economic uncertainty continues.
RISK GONE
Chinese competition in select segments
Analyst raised concern about Chinese competition; management acknowledged isolated incidents in large projects where Chinese players offered aggressive pricing.
RISK GONE
Margin normalization from peak levels
