Q: Can you provide more details on Nehru's profitability and the expected margins for the GIS segment? A: The product has significant scope for margin improvement, especially in the high voltage segment. Our order book is constrained by capacity rather than demand. The GIS product, developed in collaboration with Josa, is expected to start commercial sales within a year, with margins anticipated to be favorable due to limited competition. - Chief Business Officer
Q: What is the expected working capital requirement for the next few years? A: We are generating sufficient profit and are self-sufficient, so we do not foresee any significant increase in working capital requirements. We are also sitting on excess cash, which provides a buffer against any potential challenges. - CFO
Q: Could you provide guidance on short and medium-term revenues and margins? A: We have guided the market to expect revenues between INR 700 to 800 crores with margins around 20%. Despite supply chain issues, we are confident in maintaining these margins due to our strategic initiatives and backward integration efforts. - CFO
Q: How do you see Meru's margin profile evolving, given the current capacity utilization? A: We aim to bring Meru's margins to around 15% as we scale up. The focus will be on GIS and export markets, which take time to penetrate but offer higher margins. - CFO
Q: What are the long-term growth expectations for the company, and what EBITDA margins should investors expect? A: We expect to maintain EBITDA margins around 20%. Long-term growth will be guided by order visibility and market conditions, with more detailed guidance to be provided in Q4. - CFO
