Sona BLW delivered a record Q4 with revenue of ₹1,272 crore (+47% YoY) and EBITDA of ₹311 crore (+32% YoY), driven by strong electrification momentum and market share gains. BEV revenue share hit a record 39%, and the company won four new driveline orders, including three from European OEMs—the first EV order wins from Europe in four years. The order book stands at ₹237 billion, with EVs accounting for 70%. Management highlighted commodity inflation and wage cost headwinds but expects to maintain EBITDA margins in the 23-25% band. The railway business is expanding with new products (HVAC, electric panels). Key risk: sustained commodity inflation could pressure margins if pass-through lags persist.
