Risk intelligence
Lumax Yokowo turned EBITDA-positive in Q3 but will remain EBITDA-negative for full FY26. Telematics business is still in ascent stage with ADAS opportunities pending regulatory mandates.
Minority interest ranged from 14-24% of PBT in FY26 vs 15-16% guidance. Excluding one-time DTL reversal, minority was 16%. This dilutes consolidated earnings accretion from subsidiaries.
Standalone entity restructuring with external consultant indicates margin pressure. Excluding one-time costs, standalone profitability ~11% vs 15% consolidated, reflecting higher dependence on limited OEM programs.
One-time reversal of DTL on green fuel merger created favorable tax impact. Excluding this, ETR is 26% going forward, but Q3 PAT growth of 90% is partially inflated by this non-recurring item.
