What the record says.
Seshaasai Technologies delivered a solid Q3 FY26 with revenue of Rs 374 crore (+10.1% YoY, +6.1% QoQ) and PAT of Rs 64 crore (+19.3% YoY), with EBITDA margin expanding 316bps to 26.95%. The beat was driven by favorable product mix, operational efficiencies, lower raw material costs (chips, paper), and reduced import costs despite 37-38% dollar-denominated cost exposure. Payment solutions (53% of revenue) saw sequential recovery with new PSU bank contract wins worth Rs 489 crore and 8 new customer onboarding, though YoY decline persists. Communication & fulfillment (36.4%) and IoT (10.3%) contributed steadily. The company flagged near-term IoT softness (flat QoQ) due to delayed retail customer rollout but expects Q4 catch-up with strong pipeline from Middle East garment tagging and a large Indian retailer (19,000+ stores). Cash position remains robust at Rs 387 crore with Rs 300 crore debt repayment from IPO proceeds. Capacity expansion of 200,000+ sq ft across 4 locations is underway. Management targets maintaining 43-45% gross margins but flagged watch on dollar strength and semiconductor tightness for FY27 pricing.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management noted historical H2 seasonality with Q4 typically strongest; expects this trend to play out given order book and catch-up IoT revenue.
- Confident of maintaining this range going into FY27; dependent on dollar trajectory and semiconductor cost trends.
- Three government banks and half a dozen customers in sampling/go-live pipeline; European fintech global supply opportunity shortlisted; domestic RSP bid submitted.
- Audit completed with positive feedback; certification expected within 1-2 weeks to unlock telecom eSIM revenue contribution from next financial year.
Risks flagged
- YoY revenue decline of ~7% in payment solutions attributed to volume reduction and marginal price corrections. Management expects stable tender prices but flagged annual RFP contracts exposed to dollar movements and semiconductor tightness in FY27 negotiations.
- Q3 IoT flat QoQ at Rs 38 crore due to delayed large retail rollout; management acknowledges Q4 catch-up risk as retail is seasonal (winter/summer cycles). Global expansion (Middle East, nominated agencies) remains early-stage.
- 37-38% of costs are dollar-denominated. Management is watchful of dollar appreciation and semiconductor supply tightness for FY27 pricing. Declined to provide segment-level margin disclosure citing shared infrastructure.
- Top 10 customers contribute 63.5% of revenues; IoT growth dependent on one major retailer relationship whose volume allocation remains pending.
Key quotes
- The opportunity before us is vast. It lies in embedding intelligence into physical objects, enabling trust through data and building platforms that scale across industries from retail and logistics to healthcare, BFSI and IoT.
- We are confident to maintain on a similar range from a 43 to 45% gross margins. However, we need are also keeping a close eye on the dollar increase and would see how things move on from here.
- So I would say over the years we've seen as probably volumes go up the input cost could get more competitive and as a strategy we want especially in critical accounts to pass on some benefit of that to the customer because that becomes a competitive edge for us.
