From the Q&A
| Topic | What management said |
|---|---|
| Customer Differentiation | Management cited 36 years of trust, global quality standards, and being the only branded player in the crown category as key reasons dentists choose Laxmi Dental. |
| Scanner Margins & Strategy | Scanners have a trading margin of 15% to 20%, causing minor fluctuations; excluding scanners, margins are stable and rising. The target is to deploy 800 to 1,000 scanners in FY27 at an average price of INR3 lakhs. |
| Capacity Utilization | Aligner capacity utilization is around 70%, while lab capacity is at a constant threshold of 90%-95% due to its custom nature. |
| New Land Acquisition | The land in Palghar is for transitioning from leased facilities to an owned one to improve workflow efficiency, control costs, and support future scalability; no disruption is expected during the move. |
| Domestic Lab Growth Outlook | Domestic lab growth was 12% y-o-y; management expects growth to accelerate in coming quarters due to scanner deployment maturity and satellite labs. |
| AI-Led Automation Expenses | Higher other expenses were partly due to initial AI-related costs for beta models, but these are expected to reduce as the company scales. |
| Aligner Business Strategy | The company sells only through dentists (B2B), not directly to patients (B2C), and does not segregate between orthodontists and general dentists. |
