ASK Automotive Limited Q1 FY27
What went well
- Consolidated revenue reached ₹1,358 crore, marking a 52.1% YoY growth, or 25.3% YoY excluding pass-through and wheel assembly reduction.
- EBITDA stood at ₹164 crore, up 32.7% YoY, despite commodity price volatility.
- PAT grew 28.8% YoY to ₹85 crore, reflecting strong operational performance.
What to watch
- EBITDA margin was impacted, standing at 12%, due to abrupt and phenomenal pass-through alloy price increases, though absolute EBITDA remained strong.
- Geopolitical conflict in West Asia led to volatility in energy, commodity, and currency markets, causing sharp increases in aluminum alloy prices.
