ABB India has reported a strong performance for the April-June quarter (Q2 CY2026), marked by record orders, robust revenue growth and resilient profitability.

 

This, as the global engineering giant continued to benefit from rising demand across infrastructure, manufacturing, energy transition and digitalisation sectors.

 

The company recorded its highest-ever Q2 orders at Rs. 4,363 crore, a 50% year-on-year increase compared with Rs. 2,917 crore in Q2 CY2025. Its order backlog also strengthened by 22% to Rs. 11,898 crore at the end of the quarter, providing a strong foundation for future growth.

 

Revenue for Q2 CY2026 rose 21% year-on-year to Rs. 3,559 crore, compared with Rs. 2,940 crore in the same period last year. Profit after tax (PAT) increased 8% to Rs. 370 crore, while Operational EBITA climbed 23% to Rs. 461 crore.

 

The company’s first-half performance also remained strong, with orders reaching Rs. 8,643 crore and revenue at Rs. 6,743 crore for H1 CY2026.

 

The Board of Directors has declared a special dividend of Rs. 90.00 per equity share of face value of Rs. 2.00 each, reflecting proceeds from the Robotics divestment and operational profits generated during H1 CY2026.

 

Sustainability continued to remain a key focus area for ABB India, with 99.7% of waste diverted from landfill during the first half of CY2026 as part of the company’s circularity initiatives.

 

Commenting on the results, ABB India Country Managing Director Sanjeev Sharma said: "The record orders we delivered in Q2 CY2026 reflect the confidence customers place in ABB India's technologies and execution capabilities. 

 

"Combined with 21% revenue growth, a 23% increase in Operational EBITA as well as robust cash generation, the quarter demonstrates our ability to convert strong demand into profitable growth. I would like to thank our employees whose commitment, agility, and customer focus made these results possible."

 

He added: "We enter the second half with confidence, supported by a strong backlog and active opportunity pipeline across a diverse set of industries. India's ongoing investments in infrastructure, manufacturing, energy transition, and digitalization continue to create long-term opportunities for ABB. 

 

"With our technology leadership, local expertise and execution excellence, we are well positioned to capture this growth while continuing to advance our sustainability ambitions and create lasting value for all stakeholders.”

 

ABB India said the country’s capital expenditure cycle is evolving from a cyclical recovery into a long-term structural growth opportunity driven by electrification, automation, digitalisation, grid modernisation and energy transition.

 

While near-term margins may remain affected by commodity price volatility, competitive pressures, currency movements and geopolitical uncertainty, the company expects demand conditions to remain fundamentally healthy through the second half of CY2026.

 

With a diversified portfolio, strong order backlog, local manufacturing capabilities and a proven execution track record, ABB India said it remains positioned to convert market opportunities into sustainable and profitable growth aligned with ABB Group priorities.
