Gabriel India reported a strong Q2 FY26 with consolidated revenue of ₹1,180 crore (+15% YoY) and EBITDA of ₹116 crore (+18% YoY), with margins improving to 9.8%. Growth was driven by all segments: two/three-wheeler (+15%), passenger vehicles (+13%), and CV/railway (+35%). The company announced a JV with SK Move for lubricants targeting ₹500 crore revenue in 5-6 years, and revised the Inalfa sunroof JV to 65% ownership. Management guided for double-digit margins over the medium term, though near-term margin expansion is constrained by the MMA acquisition turnaround. Key risks include sunroof business underperformance due to weak Kia model sales and potential loss of ICE platform on a new Creta variant.
गेब्रियल इंडिया ने Q2 FY26 में मजबूत प्रदर्शन किया। कुल कमाई ₹1,180 करोड़ रही, जो पिछले साल से 15% ज्यादा है। कंपनी का मुनाफा (EBITDA) ₹116 करोड़ (+18%) और मार्जिन 9.8% रहा। सभी सेगमेंट में ग्रोथ हुई: दो/तीन पहिया (+15%), यात्री वाहन (+13%), और कमर्शियल वाहन/रेल (+35%)। कंपनी ने लुब्रिकेंट्स के लिए SK Move के साथ जॉइंट वेंचर बनाया, जिससे 5-6 साल में ₹500 करोड़ की कमाई का लक्ष्य है। सनरूफ JV में हिस्सेदारी 65% कर दी। प्रबंधन ने आने वाले समय में दोहरे अंकों का मार्जिन बनाए रखने का भरोसा दिया, लेकिन MMA कंपनी को संभालने के कारण फिलहाल मार्जिन बढ़ाना मुश्किल है। जोखिम: कमजोर Kia मॉडल बिक्री से सनरूफ कारोबार और नई Creta में ICE प्लेटफॉर्म खोने का खतरा।
