Revenue grew 16% YoY in Q4 to INR 49bn led by growth in mobility segment (mainly in tractor and PC segments). EBITDA margin at 13.2% was largely in line with consensus estimates, with share of traded goods declining to ~40% in Q4, led by localisation efforts. In medium to long term, technological and regulatory changes, including TREM V norms, are expected to increase the company?s content per vehicle. ICICI Securities has upgraded it to HOLD from Reduce with DCF-based revised target price of Rs 29,950 (earlier: Rs 25,130), implying 35x FY27E EPS, with EPS CAGR of ~12% over FY25-27E.
