Other Expenses Surge: 35% YoY Increase
Other expenses increased 35% YoY, with management attributing INR 4.2 crore of the increase to export freight costs due to Red Sea routing (hormuz route diversions). This cost headwind could compress margins if freight rates remain elevated.
Power and Fuel Cost Inflation
Power and fuel costs were elevated in Q1 due to West Asian geopolitical conflict. Additionally, upcoming TNEB tariff increases under the new Tamil government could further pressure costs. These were flagged as temporary in Q1 but future regulatory cost increases are anticipated.
Margin Dilutive Trailer Axle Assembly Opportunity Declined
Management explicitly declined pursuing trailer axle suspension assembly market, citing margin dilution concerns and existing capacity constraints.
