Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Q2 FY27 revenue rose 13% to INR1,052 crore and profit after tax rose 23% to INR92 crore. Gross margin expanded to 35.9%, while EBITDA rose 18% to INR164 crore. H1 revenue grew 11%; the company was debt-free with INR846 crore cash. Management kept FY27 revenue growth guidance at 10% to 15%, expects EBITDA margin of 18% to 20%, and plans INR550 crore to INR600 crore capital spending. Europe stayed weak, while NAFTA and LATAM grew strongly.
Positive: growth and margin guidance support earnings, but lower volumes, weak Europe and heavy registration spending remain risks.
