View:
The company's quarterly performance complements our annual estimates for FY23E (sales, EBITDA). Healthy margin performance in the quarter was due to operating leverage whereas gross margin declined 32 bps QoQ. However, with an uptick in premiumisation trend in domestic 2-W space amid technology tie-ups in the connected instrument cluster as well as BMS solutions in place, we believe the company is well positioned to record healthy & profitable growth, going forward
