Q2 FY27 Expectations vs Results

| Revenue | "Revenue / demand — likely ahead" (SIAM Q2 PV +30.7%, CV +28.7%, record 2W exports; ADS ramp) | Revenue +32.27% YoY, +6.87% QoQ (consol) | Played out |
| Margins | "flat to modestly compressing on inputs… unless pass-throughs begin landing" | EBITDA margin 19.35% vs 19.20% Q1, +201 bps YoY — held and edged up despite COGS ratio rising QoQ — better than expected | Partially |
| Tariff provision recovery | Stable 10% tariff "supportive" of the Rs.12.61 Cr provision's recoverability | Filing repeats provision; no recovery recognized | Not observable |
| FX | "at worst, neutral and likely a modest tailwind" | No forex disclosure; other income −13.03% QoQ | Not observable |
| Reported-vs-adjusted margin convergence (Q1: 19.2% vs 20.4%) | "the bridge to watch" | Q2 booked zero exceptionals/provisions — reported = clean | Played out |
