✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Tata Elxsi reported Q4 FY26 revenue of ₹993.8 crore, growing 0.9% QoQ in constant currency, with EBITDA margin improving 130 bps sequentially to 24.6%. Transportation grew 2% QoQ, driven by OEM wins (now 77% of vertical revenue), while healthcare declined 13.1% due to delayed deal closures. Media & communication grew 5.6% on deal ramp-ups. Management guided for high single-digit growth in FY27 (down from earlier double-digit aspiration), citing geopolitical uncertainty and cautious client spending. Margin trajectory targets 27% exit margin by Q4 FY27 via operational efficiencies and AI adoption. Risk: healthcare recovery may slip further if deal closures continue to delay.

Notable Quotes

We are still not out of the woods in this particular industry segment.
Mano Raghavan · Managing Director and CEO
The real organic growth has been lacking if you ask me. Not very different. I think what's different for us is the fact that you'll see that consistent offshore track delivery.
Nitin Pai · Chief Marketing and Chief Strategy Officer
