Revision of EBITDA per ton guidance given consistent performance near INR 40,000?

We will continue our guidance of 30,000 per metric ton. Despite that, we have got INR 35,000-INR 40,000 EBITDA per metric ton. For the time being, we'll continue to guide INR 30,000 per metric ton.

Breakdown of US demand between data centers and government projects.

Data centers is definitely one of the major drivers. Our estimate is that the major part of the demand currently in the U.S. is actually coming because of the data centers. The second driver is also wind energy.

Umesh Raut · Nomura

evasive

Share of imports from Middle East and Europe into US market.

Explained Section 232 tariff structure but did not provide the requested share.

EBITDA margin outlook for cables business.

On a medium to long-term basis, we expect the margins to hover around 10%-12%, as we have been guiding earlier.

Umesh Raut · Nomura

declined

Breakup of cables margins by end-user market.

No, there is no fixed pattern as such. It all depends on the composition, on the requirements, on the mixed specifications.

Amit Anwani · PL Capital

direct

Impact of metal price rise on gross margins.

The answer to that is no because we run a completely hedged book. So we do not take on the risk of the metal.

Impact of tariffs on US sales in Q2.

For almost two months, which is your August and September of the last quarter, the order inflow had almost completely stopped. This would definitely have a short-term impact in our booking of revenues in Q3 of FY26.

Amit Anwani · PL Capital

direct

Reason for low domestic cable sales growth.

The domestic market Q2 is normally the slowest period. The power cables work really stops quite dramatically in Q2. So we took that period to actually complete all the U.S. export orders.

Impact of tariffs on US EBITDA pattern for conductors and cables.

The EBITDA pattern for the U.S. markets across both conductors and cables have both obviously taken a hit. But we have been able to pass on this hit to the customers. So there is no net impact on our profitability.

Prathmesh Salunkhe · PL Capital

partial

Impact on cables growth if tariff situation resolves.

There will be a definite impact in Q3 of FY26 because there were two months of really no order inflow. As we get into Q4 onwards, you will see again the momentum starting to pick up.

Nitin Arora · Axis Mutual Fund

direct

Is US revenue slowdown only in Q3 with Q4 recovery?

On the order flow, constant inquiry has been coming. We've seen a large intake come in at the end of October. So you'll see a reasonably strong execution happening from November onwards.

Kumari Nitisha · ICICI Securities

Progress on conductor capacity expansion and timeline.

It is all going as per schedule. The bulk of it will be done by March 26, and some part of it will get done by the Q1 of the next financial year.
