“65%, revenue share from India operations in Q4 FY26.”

Where does growth come from?
The Chennai plant is rapidly scaling up from a trial phase of 5,000 tons to a target of 20,000 tons in FY26, indicating an accelerating utilization trend as it moves toward breakeven. (3 accelerating, 2 new trend across 5 signals, 1 leading indicator)
“The Company set up a greenfield unit in Chennai with capacity to go up to 60,000 TPA, of which 30,000 TPA was installed in Phase 1.”
Sales volume is showing strong sequential acceleration, growing 13% quarter-on-quarter to reach 30,573 MT, driven primarily by a 20.8% jump in Thailand volumes and 8.4% growth in India. (3 accelerating, 2 decelerating across 5 signals)
“The company reported record volume sales in the fourth quarter to the tune of 36484 MT (19 percent increase year on year)”

What could break the thesis?
The risk remains high as EBITDA margins dropped significantly from 13.3% to 9.1% YoY due to a 20% increase in wire rod costs and higher energy costs, though management expects recovery through price hikes. (1 intensifying, 3 easing, 1 stable, 1 high-severity)
“This divergence – higher revenue and lower profits - was the result of a 20% increase in the cost of wire rods used by the company and an increase in energy costs following the outbreak of the US-Iran war.”
The risk is stable to easing. While Thailand faced increased competition, the Indian market showed encouraging automobile offtake. Total volumes grew 8% YoY, and export demand showed signs of revival toward the end of the quarter. (2 stable)
“During this quarter robust tyre offtake was driven by a sustained rise in the offtake of passenger vehicles. Vehicle exports increased.”
