The company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) also fell significantly by 27% year-on-year to ₹441 crore. Meanwhile, the EBITDA margin reduced to 13% from 19.2% a year ago.
Commenting on the performance, Managing Director of ABB India, Sanjeev Sharma, said, “While profitability was impacted by forex volatility and one-offs during the quarter, we continued to deliver double-digit PAT margins for the 11th consecutive quarter.”
Revenue was the positive area for the quarter, with a 12.2% increase at ₹3175.4 crore compared to ₹2,831 crore in the same period previous year. Based on the performance and the cash position, the Board of Directors have declared an interim dividend of ₹9.77 per equity share of face value of ₹2 each.
Total orders for the quarter stood at ₹3,036 crore, lower sequentially as the second quarter witnessed some sluggishness in ordering activity coupled with a mixed bag of opportunities in the manufacturing sector, the company said. ABB India also experienced some weakness in orders for process automation and robotics, and discrete automation.
For the second half of 2025, ABB India considers itself strategically positioned, given that the broad-based portfolio of the company is closely aligned with national priorities—ranging from energy transition and digital infrastructure to manufacturing competitiveness.
Shares of ABB India Ltd ended at ₹5,397.45, down by ₹113.9, or 2.07%, on the BSE on Friday, August 1.
