Arati Nath, CEO & Director
From the Q&A
TopicWhat management said
Product Development and Defense ProjectsCEO stated product development focuses on adding value and solving customer pain points. Disclosures on ultracapacitors for defense are limited due to sensitive Indian Army commitments, but products are being made in India for India.
Control & Relay Panel (CRP) Margins and StrategyCEO said current CRP pricing offers around 10% margin, with a long-term vision to move to higher-rated panels (415 KV to 750 KV) which command better margins, potentially via own manufacturing or partnerships.
Order Pipeline ConversionCEO clarified that previous mention of a ~Rs 100 crore pipeline referred to quoted inquiries; current orders in hand were around Rs 10-15 crore. She expects good order conversion this year or next, though projects have long gestation periods.
Growth Drivers and New ApplicationsManagement highlighted new applications for flagship products like the Bus Transfer System (BTS) in data centers, refineries, and process industries, and sees emerging demand from these sectors.
R&D Expenditure PhilosophyCEO explained the company's frugal R&D approach focuses on understanding technology, building prototypes, and capitalizing expenses into assets rather than high overheads, which keeps reported R&D spending low.
Guidance
  • Expect the next three quarters to be very healthy in terms of revenues and margins.
  • Anticipate good order conversion from the existing inquiry pipeline within this or the next financial year.
  • Product technologies being worked on today are expected to be more applicable in the next five years.
