What could break the thesis?
The risk is intensifying in terms of scale, with a massive new capex application of INR 3,000 crores planned over 5 years under the new component scheme. Management is also finalizing a INR 2,500 crore investment for the Korea Circuit JV. (5 intensifying, 2 high-severity)
“# PAT is prior to the exceptional one-off impairment of investment in Shivalik of ₹ 94 Cr”
The risk is easing for Amber specifically, as the company reported a robust 33% YoY revenue growth in its Consumer Durables division despite what it termed a 'challenging season' for the broader RAC industry. (1 easing, 2 intensifying, 1 stable)
“if you see quarter 1 was-5%, -10%, then quarter 2 was -35%... So we feel that the industry should be flattish this year”
