Revenue Growth: Steel Strips Wheels reported Q3 FY26 revenue of INR 1,321 crores, up 23% year-on-year, driven by strong domestic demand and record sales in November and December.
EBITDA Performance: Q3 EBITDA rose 8% to INR 128 crores, with per-wheel EBITDA reaching INR 260 despite ongoing export headwinds.
Export Challenges: Export sales, particularly in the US, remain subdued due to tariffs, impacting high-margin steel wheel business by INR 300–400 crores annually.
Domestic Strength: Robust growth in aluminum wheels, commercial vehicles, and tractors offset export weakness; capacity utilization is at or above 100% in key segments.
CapEx & Expansion: Ongoing and planned capacity additions in alloy wheels and aluminum knuckles (~INR 420 crores in FY27), with further expansions funded by a mix of debt and internal accruals.
Margin Outlook: Management expects margin improvement and targets EBITDA per wheel of INR 270 in Q4, with INR 300 per wheel seen as achievable as market and product mix evolve.
Guidance: Management projects FY27 revenue of at least INR 6,000 crores, with upside potential to INR 6,500 crores if US tariffs are resolved.
