Cables and wires segment posted 12% revenue growth led by 10% volume growth in domestic business. Fast moving electrical goods grew 23% led by robust demand in fans and engineering, procurement and construction business surged 240%, driven by strong execution of RDSS order book.
Ebitda margins contracted 170 bps YoY to 12.4% due to adverse revenue mix. However, margins were within management guidance of 11-13%.
