✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Finolex Cables reported a strong Q3 FY26 with revenue of ~₹1,600 crore, up 35% QoQ, driven by volume-led growth across segments. Wires & cables volumes grew 25-26%, with electric wires up 28%, auto cables up 42%, and solar cables reaching 80-85% capacity utilization. The communication segment saw OFC volumes rise a third, with fiber prices recovering from ~$3 to ~$5 per km, signaling a turnaround. Management guided for preform plant commissioning within the fiscal and fiber draw capacity expansion to 8 million km by Q1 FY27. Risks include channel inventory buildup due to price hikes, potential margin pressure from new entrants (e.g., Birla, Adani), and mix shift toward lower-margin auto/industrial products. The sustainable EBITDA margin for cables is pegged at 11-12%, currently below that due to mix.
