Bhavani Kumawat: Yes. Thank you, Shruti. Good evening, everyone. On behalf of Axis Capital Limited, I
welcome you all to Orient Electric's Q1 FY27 Earnings Conference Call. From the
management side, we have with us Mr. Ravindra Singh Negi, Managing Director and Chief
Executive Officer; Mr. Arvind Vats, Chief Financial Officer; and Mr. Sambhav Jain, Head of
Investor Relations.
Sir, thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to host the call and many congratulations
on great set of numbers. Now I'd like to hand over the call to Negi sir for his opening remarks.
Thanks, and over to you, sir.
Ravindra Singh Negi: Thank you, Bhavani. Good evening, everyone, and a warm welcome to Orient Electric's Q1
FY27 Earnings Conference Call. Thank you for joining us today. We hope you've had the
opportunity to review our financial results and earnings presentation, which are available on
the stock exchanges and on our company website.
I will begin by outlining the operating context for the quarter, followed by our performance
highlights. Quarter 1 unfolded against a constructive demand backdrop. After a subdued
summer last year, cooling net demand revived strongly this season, picking up from mid-April
and remaining robust through May with some moderation towards the end of the quarter, aided
by healthy liquidity and steady discretionary spending.
At the same time, operating environment stayed dynamic. Persistent commodity inflation,
particularly copper and aluminum, increase in minimum wages, inflating labor cost and their
availability, alongside rising fuel cost, import delays and broader geopolitical uncertainty kept
the supply chains and input costs under pressure, driving broad-based cost increases across the
sector.
We manage these dynamics proactively while staying focused on disciplined execution.
Despite the challenging environment, Orient Electric delivered a strong performance with a
revenue growth of 23.5% year-on-year and continued expansion in profitability. This was
supported by broad-based momentum across the portfolio and a strong seasonal recovery in
our core categories.
This performance reflects the disciplined execution of our One Orient approach anchored in
our 3-wall strategy, which focuses on multiple growth avenues while extracting synergies from
our established ecosystem, underpinned by premiumization, innovation, diversification and
operational discipline.

Importantly, our emerging growth engines continue to scale, improving the quality and
resilience of growth across lighting, switchgear and wires portfolio. Lighting and Switchgear
remained a structural growth engine, delivering 25.4% year-on-year revenue growth, driven by
distribution expansion, portfolio premiumization and steady market share gains in consumer
lighting.
The consumer lighting business grew in high double digits with a meaningful improvement in
volume to value conversion. Our share of high-value looms expanded to 60%, up 500 basis
points versus last year, supported by strong traction across premium categories.
Professional Lighting continues to gain traction, aided by execution of key street lighting and
facade projects, and we continue to see healthy project inquiry pipeline. Our emerging growth
engines, switchgear, switches and wires continue to scale well.
Wires grew more than 200% year-on-year, although on a small base, while switches and
switchgears sustained growth momentum with double-digit growth as we accelerated our
electrician engagement initiatives and continue to leverage our fans and lighting distribution
ecosystem for effective cross-sell.
In the ECD segment, revenue grew by 22.7% year-on-year to INR669 crores, led by a strong
summer and deeper penetration in both our DTM and MD markets. Fans delivered high
double-digit growth, outperforming peers on the back of our distribution strategy and
continued focus on premiumization and product development. Our BLDC portfolio grew 36%
year-on-year, while new product launches contributed 30% of fan revenue this quarter.
Our overall premium mix increased to 36% of domestic fan revenue. Our appliances portfolio
sustained its upward trajectory with strong traction in heating and garment care categories,
delivering double-digit growth. Premiumization and innovation-led launches remained a core
pillar of our growth.
During this -- during the peak summer season, we anchored our fans campaign on India's first
innovation narrative, led by Aero O2, India's first oxygen-enriching ceiling fans, along with
our Aerosilent and Ecotech Volt launches. This innovation focus earned strong external
recognition also with Orient Electric winning 3 Red Dot Design awards. We continue to
expand our direct-to-market footprint, adding approximately 3,600 new retailers under the
DTM network this quarter.
On the service, Samvad platform, along with AI-led capabilities continued to improve the
service delivery experience through deeper consumer insights and faster issue resolution. Our
e-com business scaled, delivering double-digit growth, supported by a stronger assortment and
healthy consumer traction. Our export business also grew by double digit, expanding deeper
into international markets.
Operational discipline remained central to our approach. In the context of commodity inflation,
we implemented calibrated price actions during the quarter across all segments and categories.
Our Project Sanchay program continued to deliver tangible benefits, translating into INR10
crores of cost saving
