Thank you very much. We will now begin the question -and-answer session. The first question is from the line of Ravi Swaminathan from Avendus Spark. Please proceed.

Ravi SwaminathanAvendus Spark

Hi sir. Thanks for taking my question, and congrats on a good set of numbers. My first question is with respect to the Industrial segment. We have seen around 15% kind of revenue growth during this quarter. If you can give a flavour of how the growth was in certain key sub products like LT Motor, HT Motor; and even within the railways, the regular propulsion systems for locomotives, the ones for Vande Bharat; how the revenue has panned out and visibility for KAVACH orders; and also exports. If you can give a flavour on how the growth is trending on all of the sub segments, it will be really great?

Amar Kaul

Yes, sure. Thanks for the question. So on the Industrial segment, if you see the growth has primarily come from the railway side. Having said that, the good news for motors also, even though if you look at the indices for Industrial, both for IIP as well as the EMA data showed the negative trend for the quarter as well, which has been consistent for the last couple of quarters. But good news is that Motors business went up, of course, not on the very high digits in growth, but then, yes, some decent progress on that. So which shows that the efforts and the actions we are taking in the business, not only from the commercial point of view in the market as well as the operational OpEx piece of work that we are doing has started showing some bit of results on that. And drives in automation business, as I mentioned. For the subsidiary, the revenue numbers are not so good there, but the good news is that bookings have started flowing in, which means it's just the execution now. So yes, some bit of improvement you will continue to see there.

Ravi SwaminathanAvendus Spark

Understood. And with respect to the KAVACH order, last year, we got around INR 800 crores of orders. And this year, first quarter, around INR 180 crores of orders we have got. What kind of run rate should we kind of look at every year annually over the next few years for KAVACH? Should it be in that INR 800 crores to INR 1,000 crores kind of range?

Amar Kaul

See, KAVACH, I would say almost 99% focus is on the execution piece of it. And we are almost reaching that stage to start executing it now, because the whole process is in process and all the test results have happened. Passenger trials are in progress right now. So we are progressing fairly well on that. So having said that, I would expect every month, at least 100 KAVACH installation commissioning happening, starting in the next couple of months there. So that is one piece of it. And second, of course, I am not giving any guidance or forward-looking statement, but the point is the business opportunity is phenomenal. It's just the strength of our designing and executing these orders on track. So the better we do it on time and at the lowest time of executing and commissioning the KAVACH, both for loc o as well as station, more and more orders we will keep getting.

Ravi SwaminathanAvendus Spark

And with respect to the propulsion systems for the Vande Bharat kind of trains, we had last year won a contract from the RVNL JV. Is there more to come from that particular JV? And is there a possibility of securing orders from other people who are executing or other companies which are executing the Vande Bharat trains?

Amar Kaul

Yes. Of course, I think one is the order that we received, Chidambaram and team, they are busy into designing and executing that order. Having said that, appetite is much bigger. So we are also exploring other opportunities, not only with Vande Bharat, yes, with other partners as well.

Ravi SwaminathanAvendus Spark

Got it. And my final question is if you can give a broad split of the Industrial segment?

Moderator

Sorry to interrupt, sir. May we request you to join the queue again for your follow-up question.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Jonas from Birla Mutual Fund. Please proceed.

Jonas Bhutta

Congrats team on a great set of numbers. 2 quick questions. First, what explains the increase in the power segment inflows, which were trending more closer to INR 1,800 crores to, say, maybe INR 2,000 crores quarterly. They seem to have come in closer to INR 4,000 crores. Are we to assume that this is in anticipation of the new plant going live probably during the year? And if you can explain, given that you have outgrown the industry in terms of order inflows, at what incremental margin levels have these orders come?

Amar Kaul

Yes, I think good question on that. So these are across, power sector transformers as well as switchgear included together. Why we are outgrowing is because we are expanding in terms of our pipeline, our go-to-market rather than being conservative on requests for quote that we are getting. We are actually going out in the market to make sure that we are capturing and increasing the pile of pipeline of orders, and that's where the win percentage is also increasing. To your question specific to margins, yes, they are at decent margin that we would look forward to. So we are not compromising on margins to get more orders.

Jonas Bhutta

Just a continuation, what would be the mix of the power order backlog now between, say, PT and Switchgears, roughly?

Amar Kaul

So see, the split we are not giving, but I can only say that both are trying to beat each other. So it's a good game to have.

Jonas Bhutta

Understood. And the second quick one is on the margins of the Industrial Systems. So either on a Y-o-Y or on Q-on-Q basis, we have seen a deterioration in margins, while you have elaborated what led to that. If at all, you can give us a broad brid ge as to if there was a 300 basis points deterioration on a year-on-year basis, how much of that came through the sales mix impact due to railways and how much of it is because of this raw mat impact?

Amar Kaul

Your question is specific to Industrial or Motors?

Jonas Bhutta

Yes. Industrial. So we have seen roughly 300 basis points of margin deterioration.

Amar Kaul

I would say the majority of the impact is coming from Railways. Because of this PVC clause, which is price variation clause that is there, I think it's a bit complex from Indian Railways. So you really don't end up getting complete inflation back into your numbers. So you keep on getting the impact. So having said that, what the railways team is doing is also they worked on i2V, which is more of VAV kind of a thing, what can we improvise over and above what you are not able to pass on. As you know, it's a tender business. So back to your question, majority of the impact is from Railways and a bit from Motors side. And then Motors, as I mentioned last quarter as well, the action that we are taking, we recently increased our prices by almost 5% , starting 1st of July. I think that will start showing up some results in the subsequent months, not immediately, because you take about 2- 3 months for it to show up. But yes, we are taking actions on the commercial side for the market and also what can we keep eliminating the non-value-added activity in the system.

Jonas Bhutta

Thank you. I will fall back in the queue. And all the best.

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Ankur from HDFC Life. Please proceed.

Ankur Sharma

Hi sir. Good evening. Thanks as always for your time. One question on the LT Motor side, and I know you have been flagging off the fact that the LT Motor market has been kind of stagnant to maybe a marginal decline for maybe 4-5 quarters. So one, are you starting to see any hints of a recovery? And I understand we have been growing because of our own initiatives, but more from an industry point of view, when do you believe this growth kind of comes back? Which sectors do you believe need to start firing, to get this growth back?

Amar Kaul

Yes. Coming back to the LT Motor question that you had. Yes, market has further deteriorated. So we don't see that revival happening. But as I said, it's positive, but yes, a bit of impact on the margins, which, as I mentioned, we are countering by already increasing the prices in the market effective July.

Ankur Sharma

Okay. And in your view, when do you believe we could start seeing some recovery? Is it going to be more second half? Are you seeing any signs there? And also which segment, end markets, you believe could drive that recovery?

Amar Kaul

You mean the market recovery? Again, the market recovery, I cannot forecast. It purely depends on the way it works on the Industrial piece is when the smaller CAPEX starts coming in. Now that we are not able to see in a large way. Yes, a b it of activity we can see, but not too much of it. So that obviously will depend on the sentiments and the mood and how this market will come. But having said that, we are not 100% dependent. Important is to see which areas or verticals we are not there. That's where we are trying to penetrate into. And that we are doing better than the market. When the market is negative and we are still positive, I think that's where the growth is coming from.

Ankur Sharma

Sure. I get it. And just the second one on the Power side, if you can help us on your current utilization levels across your plants? And are you facing any capacity constraints there?

Amar Kaul

On the Power sector?

Ankur Sharma

That's right. On the Power side, on the Power systems side.

Amar Kaul

Yes. I mean the capacity is, of course, the issue right now across the globe, not only in India. And that's why you see huge impetus that we have on increasing our capacities. So yes, so it's in a full acceleration mode. And 2 things. One is the existing p lant getting up to 40,000 MVA capacity that we had already mentioned. So by September, we will be up and running to that , from current approximately 20,000 MVA. And also this 45,000 MVA, the work has already started construction for the new plant. That's already been up.

Ankur Sharma

Okay. Got it. Thanks.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Aniket from Motilal. Please proceed. Hello, Aniket, sir. As we have no response, we will move on to the next participant. The next question is from the line of Subhadip from Nuvama. Please proceed. Subhadip Mitra: Good evening, sir, and thank you for the opportunity. Just wanted to get a sense of if we have to take a view over the next 12 to 1 8 months, how do you see the longer -term margin stabilizing across Power, Railways and the Industrial piece?

Amar Kaul

See, I think it can only get better, in my opinion. And there, I think we can keep talking for the next couple of hours on why do I say that it will continue to go better. And overall, at company level, if you tell me, I think at some stage, we will bounce back to 14%, 15% PBT margins. Subhadip Mitra: Understood. So do you see the current levels of margins, at least on the Power side, which seems to be the highest traction, that continuing around this 20%-odd levels?

Amar Kaul

It should go even better than that. My aspiration is much bigger. Subhadip Mitra: Understood. And sir, lastly, I think you had talked about some large potential for exports, especially on the motor side, I think, in the last call. Just wanted to understand what is the progress on that side? Where do you see things moving?

Amar Kaul

No, I think it's progressing well. As I told you, we have been doing the foundational work, which Jatinder Kaul has been increasing and improving on the capacity, working in collaboration with Marais, who has been making investments in terms of go -to-market, having our people in respective regions. So today, if you see we have the presence in Northwest French Afric a, in Africa, even Europe, some of the countries, we have added some of the headcounts to increase on the channel. So the action is on. And of course, as you know, to see the real effect, it takes a couple of quarters to reach there. So getting partners on boarded , having our people footprint on the role and also having the manufacturing capability building, so that all is going on. So good to share that. In fact, when we had the business review couple of days back, I am happy to see the progress we are making in those areas. So yes, good days ahead. Subhadip Mitra: Understood. Last question from my side. On the semiconductor piece, by when do you expect to start seeing the larger ramp-up and meaningful revenues and bottom line coming from there?

Amar Kaul

So semiconductor, there are 2 portions to that. One is CG Semi and one is Axiro. Now CG Semi is absolutely on track. The mini plant as we had projected, '26, it will start production. And the main plant, which is the larger one, will start production in '27. So we reviewed the project, and I think they are, in fact, a little ahead of the target. So that is going good. And Axiro, which is our radio frequency chip designing facility, the business that we acquired, in fact, their revenue will start a lready flowing in. Because that was a direct movement and acquisition of this facility. Subhadip Mitra: Understood. Thank you so much.

Amar Kaul

Thank you.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Richard D'souza from SBI Pension Funds. Please proceed. Richard D’souza: Good evening, sir. So just a broad policy level question , because over the past few months, if you have seen Chinese actions, it seems that they are indicating that they don't want India to become a manufacturing hub. So in light of that, has there been any change in the attitude of government towards companies which are specializing in manufacturing? And that is the first one. And the second one is what is CG's thought process about this, because this opens up a lot of revenue for a company like us. Are we looking at the newer areas?

Amar Kaul

Yes. Thanks for the question. So first one, obviously, see macroeconomic trends and the political discussion between the countries, honestly, that will keep happening. So we don't tweak our strategy every second day in line with that. So if not China, if not others, you will have opportunity for the whole world. So it doesn't change our manufacturing footprint strategy at all. We continue to progress on what we have planned for. To your second question, was more on?

Amar Kaul

Yes. So I think we will keep on investing. One is the portfolio that we have across different businesses. I think that itself, there's a huge opportunity across the globe that we have, including India. And of course, as we move forward, anything on the adjacencies of each of the businesses that makes sense for it. Yes, we will be open to look at those opportunities. Richard D’souza: Okay, sir. Maybe I will come back later. Thank you.

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Bhoomika Nair from DAM Capital. Please proceed.

Bhoomika NairDAM Capital

Good evening, sir. And c ongratulations on a good set of numbers. Sir, my first question is on Motors. You spoke about the weak demand and how we have outgrown the industry for the last several quarters. Now in this weak demand environment, you have taken a 5% price hike effective July. Is this something that the rest of the peer set has also seen? And do we expect that this could possibly impact our market share gains that we have seen in the last couple of quarters?

Amar Kaul

Yes, Bhoomika, thanks for the question. See, the point is LT Motors, we are the market leaders. So we got to define what should be the pricing in the market. So after we increased our pricing by 5%, the good news is lot of competitors are following what we are doing. And I think that's the way you actually continue to be the market leader. So I am happy with what I am doing. So it doesn't mean that when we increase by 5%, you will have a realization of 100%. So even if you have a realization of 50%, I think from pricing discipline point of view, that's a good step forward.

Bhoomika NairDAM Capital

Sure. And there's not a similar price increase in the HT Motor. HT Motor, the pricing has not been changed?

Amar Kaul

HT Motor, it's more of customized motor s, because every motor would be unique. It's like building a Taj Mahal. So every time you have to carve out a different design and then accordingly price it.

Bhoomika NairDAM Capital

Sure. So how is the demand on the HT Motor panning out with these new solutions? Our market share is obviously while it has increased, but not as strong as the LT Motors. So how is the demand and our share kind of increasing as we are moving ahead?

Amar Kaul

I will pass on that question. JK, if you are there, how do you feel about HT Motors market?

Jatinder Kaul

Absolutely. Thanks, Amar, and thank you for the question. There's a big demand in the market, and we right now, our served market is very small. We are serving a sm aller portion of the market. We have plans in place where we are going to invest on the design, and we want to expand. We want to expand, have more verticals to work with. This is one of the priorities I am personally working, is how to have a bigger market share and a better market share and expand the overall served market for us. This will be our key focus area. Definitely there's a big demand, but we will have to have the right set of solution for our customers.

Bhoomika NairDAM Capital

Sure, sure. That helps, sir. Sir, just secondly on power...

Moderator

Sorry to interrupt ma'am. May we request you to join the question queue as we have other participants in the queue.

Bhoomika NairDAM Capital

Sure. I will come back. Thank you all the best.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Renu from IIFL Capital. Please proceed.

Renu Baid

Yes. Hi, good evening, sir. Just 2 quick questions. First, can you share updates on where are we with respect to commercial volumes for our EV Motors? And secondly, on the export front for motors, can you also elaborate for what type of applications are we targeting the export ? And any particular region which are high priority regions for us apart from Africa, Europe, where you mentioned you are setting up distribution and GTM? Thank you.

Amar Kaul

Yes. So thanks, Renu. So I think on the EV Motor, I would say we are still in the beginning of it. I would not claim that we have got the secret sauce. So first thing is for the 3 -wheeler motor and the drive, we are ready there. The motors have already been tested. They have passed the homologation for individual motor and inverter. They are at testing at the OEM level, at the auto company level. So hopefully, in next few months, we will get the approval and that will start the supplies piece of it. So for others, we are actually still in the development stage for the larger trucks. The development of that is still in place. So yes, still a bit of a long way to go there.

Renu Baid

Sure. And can you el aborate with specific applications are we targeting on the export segment for motors, these would be standard LT Motor segment only?

Amar Kaul

You mean EV or you are talking about...

Renu Baid

No, conventional motors for exports market.

Amar Kaul

Conventional motors for exports will be the similar portfolio that we have. One is the industrial piece, which are those smaller LT motors as well as the customized motors. As we get more and more experience, and we have the right skill team setting across divis ions, because when you are exporting motors, you also need to have service centres there. And that's what Marais and team is busy setting up right now. So it will be for both.

Renu Baid

Got it. Thank you. And best wishes to you.

Amar Kaul

Thank you.

The next question is from the line of Bhalchandra Shinde from Motilal Oswal. Please proceed.

Bhalchandra ShindeMotilal Oswal

Hello. This is Bhalchandra Shinde from Motilal Oswal Agency. Sir, the recent order which we received of INR 400 crores from Kinet Railways, that we have started executing and that is actually impacting our Industrial Systems segment profitability or it is yet to execute?

Amar Kaul

No, no, I don't think so. I think execution has just started. So the team has started working on it. I think that should give us good days ahead. So it is the routine business and the mix that has changed, between more skewed towards traction electronics. That's where the impact o n the margins has come with the railways, whatever reverse auction that they do, and that's where the impact has come. But to your question, no, nothing related to Kinet.

Bhalchandra ShindeMotilal Oswal

Okay. Okay. And in Power, if you can provide insights that the ki nd of a trajectory which we are seeing in the order inflows. What kind of a visibility we see over next 1 year, especially because of this T&D CAPEX going on? And how we see our capacities which are going to come will be utilized over the next 2 to 3 years?

Amar Kaul

I think, Bhalchandra, for Power, honestly, I am very, very bullish for even next 5 years. I will not worry about. I think we will keep expanding our capacity. Obviously, as we progress and keep looking at the market, get our feet on the ground, we will keep expanding it further. I don't think with even 85,000 MVA capacity that we have invested, we will be satisfied with that. But again, it will not be a knee-jerk reaction. As we get more stronghold on our pipeline, it keeps swelling, we will keep adding capacity. Basis what the data that you see, all the forecast and what we see on the ground, next 5 years, nothing is going to happen. It will keep going up. The capacity versus the demand gap will always stay there.

Bhalchandra ShindeMotilal Oswal

Got it. Thanks sir. I will come back for more questions.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Umesh Raut from Nomura. Please proceed.

Umesh RautNomura

Hi sir. Good evening. And c ongrats for a very healthy set of numbers. Sir, my first question is pertaining to employee costs. So we have seen 52% increase in the cost year-on-year basis. Is it largely on the account of new operations getting started for Axiro or investment into CG Semicon?

Susheel Todi

So you are looking at a total consolidated number. Am I right?

Susheel Todi

Yes. So it's coming out to CG Semi as well as that you know that we did an acquisition of Axiro. So that also is coming. In that business, the staff cost and the employee cost would be much high.

Umesh RautNomura

Any other costs you have incurred upfront for the Axiro, because margins for Axiro looking like are lower single -digit range currently. So when we can ex pect stabilization for that particular business?

Amar Kaul

Yes. So these are as part of the transaction, the initial setup that we have put up there. So I think that is what is showing there. But yes, first year, as you know, any acquisition that happens will be the transition year, and then you will see the upside going there, and that's specific to Axiro. And I think CG Semi itself, if you are looking at employee cost at consolidated level, yes, I think there are almost 170 people almost already on board and with no revenue. But again, we have made that investment. It's more strategic investment , because most of them have been trained, right from operators to engineers in various plants of our partners outside India. And right now, they are on the job of learning. So our lead time from manufacturing start , till you start the shipments will be compressed with the investment that we are doing now.

Umesh RautNomura

Got it. Thank you. Thank you so much.

Moderator

The next question is from the line of Atul Tiwari from JPMorgan. Please proceed.

Atul TiwariJPMorgan

Yes. Thanks a lot. And congrats on good set of numbers. Sir, in CG Semi, how much is the total CAPEX that you have done so far?

Atul TiwariJPMorgan

And between now and end of 2027, you will end up doing roughly INR 76 billion. So the entire thing will happen now like over next 2 years. Is that right understanding?

Susheel Todi

So for overall, including subsidy, yes, including subsidy, you are right. Or I would say the capital support from the government, not a subsidy.

Amar Kaul

So our contribution...

Susheel Todi

Our contribution would be around INR 1,700 crores.

Atul TiwariJPMorgan

Okay. So I thought the subsidy was 50%, right? So if the total CAPEX is INR 76 billion, then your contribution will be higher. Is there some change in that or...

Susheel Todi

No. So, that we said, no. Initially we have been talking about 50%, it's a kind of a capital support from the central government, and between 20% to 25% support from the state government. And rest would be given by CG and other partners of the CG.

Atul TiwariJPMorgan

Okay. And the support from the state government will also be available before the production starts or it will come only after production?

Susheel Todi

That discussion is going on with the state government and it might be on the similar line what the central government is doing.

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Harshit Patel from Equirus Securities. Please proceed.

Harshit PatelEquirus Securities

Thank you very much for the opportunity, sir. Sir my question is on the Axiro. You have explained that given that this is the year of transition, the margins are slightly on the lower side over here. So sir, over the medium to long term, what could be the stabilized steady-state margin for this particular business for us?

Amar Kaul

So see, as I said, first year for any acquisition will be the transition year. There will be some upfront costs, setting up. We set up the office in Bangalore with a lab there. So all that is transition. So it won't be apple -to-apple conversion. But yes, specific, we are not giving any guidance, but the way they have performed before, it will be easily a double-digit margin.

Harshit PatelEquirus Securities

Understood sir. Thank you very much.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Aditya from Kotak Securities. Please proceed.

Aditya Mongia

Thank you for the oppor tunity. And c ongratulations on a very strong set of numbers. I just wanted to get more color on the big uptick in inflows happening in the Power side and the go - to-market strategy. Could you give us a sense of the split of the orders that you have won between domestic and international? And any more color as to what exactly is the company doing to gain market share, would be useful. Thank you. That would be my only question.

Amar Kaul

Yes. So I think the majority of orders won are all domestic. It's primarily from India. So there's not a big skew that has happened before and after for exports. So it's almost in the same proportion. So not much of a change here. But important is we will continue and we are continuing to keep building on our pipeline. And pipeline from where, obviously, that is a little bit company confidential. So would not reveal that too much unless it gets converted into the order.

Aditya Mongia

Understood. That was my only question. Thank you.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Sameer Thakur from Ambit Capital. Please proceed.

Sameer ThakurAmbit Capital

Just one. So if you can just elaborate on Service business, what efforts you are taking there? And if you have any target in your mind, let's say, by 2030?

Amar Kaul

Thanks. I think a very good question, and I love that. Service is my passion. But as of today, if you tell me, give me a clear road map of Service business till 2030, my answer is I am not ready right now. But is that the business that will show us results in future? Absolutely. And are we working on that? Yes, for at least 3 or 4 business leaders in this call. They are actively working with their teams, along with me and the strategy team to develop a model which will be unique. When I say Service business is actually a multistage service business. It's not simple that you get a spare part order or you get a service order , and that will continue to happen. What I am talking about is full-fledged 5 years, 10 years contract , and taking the full responsibility of the products that we are supplying or also at some stage, we get into, for example, motors. Like the way you have SaaS, we have motor -as-a-service kind of a package where we make the investment for you and we sell you the energy efficiency. So those are the steps where we will get into. But yes, we are not prepared already on that right now, because it requires a lot of hard work, which we are doing.

Sameer ThakurAmbit Capital

Okay. Thanks. I will get back in the queue.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Shirom from Jefferies. Please proceed.

Shirom

Hi. Thanks for the opportunity. Just wanted to get a bit more sense on the semiconductors, the incentive. I think it was very referred to in the previous question, but just could you clarify? So the incentives that you are set to receive, are they already being booked as received or only once the facilities are operational? And yes, just if you could give some clarity on that.

Susheel Todi

No. So this is not a subsidy support like capital support. So subsidies al ways it comes a little later once we invest it. So it would be more like pari passu, right? The money going into the pool and then coming from every stakeholders , and then it will go into the suppliers. So this is the way entire model will work.

Shirom

So it will come while you are investing, not necessarily only once the facility is operational like a subsidy. It's being put together from the start.

Susheel Todi

Yes. You are right.

Shirom

Got it. Thank you so much.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Subramaniam Yadav from SBI Life Insurance. Please proceed. Subramaniam Yadav: Thank you. Sir, we have a strong inflow in the Power segment in this quarter. Just trying to understand, have we started booking orders for the new facility, which is coming in September for the transformer?

Amar Kaul

I think that's a very good question. And as I said, the construction has just begun there. So hopefully, in the next 2 months, we will start booking the orders. Ajay, you want to add to that?

Ajay Jain

Yes, Amar. Once the construction starts, we will start taking orders. Our focus is on taking short delivery orders there, where we can start delivering within 12 months. Subramaniam Yadav: Okay. And sir, actually I was asking for the extension of the existing facility, transformer facility, which was supposed to come in September?

Amar Kaul

Yes. So that is on track, as I mentioned. So it will go to about 40,000 MVA by September. Subramaniam Yadav: Okay. Sir, the second one would be...

Moderator

Sorry to interrupt, sir. Can you just get in the question queue? Subramaniam Yadav: Okay. Thank you.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Uttam Kumar from Avendus Spark. Please proceed.

Uttam KumarAvendus Spark

Sir, thank you for taking my question. My question pertains to Power Systems. So today, we have close to INR 9,000 crores of orders, and we are continuously seeing strong traction in terms of order inflows. The first thing is I want to understand on this INR 9,000 crore order book which we have, what is the execution period for this? And what is the kind of revenue which we are looking at, for this full year? A rough range also would suffice. And the extension to that is on the export market. So what's happening on the transformer side? Because we have been also trying to look at the exports side of it for the transformer space. Have you started any exports or is it going to be at the later stage of the year? More color on those also will be helpful.

Amar Kaul

Yes. So the backlog that we have for transformers specifically, I think with the latest order that we got, big one, it's up to 26 months, but I don't think we have to really wait for that long. We should be able to execute everything in the next 18 to 20-22 months. And then that's the reason also why we have to keep filling up the pie and bring it there. To your question on export piece of it, yes, the work is continuing there, what we have been doing, but we are also looking at strategic lever how to play a bigger game in that market as well. So that work is in progress.

Moderator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Umesh Raut from Nomura. Please proceed.

Hi sir. Thank you so much for the opportunity once again. So my question is pertaining to Industrial Systems and for Subsidiary business. So if I look at performance for Subsidiary business for Industrial Systems, it has remained more of volatile since last few quarters. And I think margins are also hovering in the range of negative to about, say, as high as 10%. We have done margins of about 10% to 15% a few quarters back in this particular business. But I think now those are quite struggling. So any reason over here and how soon we can expect margins kind of reverting back to low double-digit range for Industrial Systems export business or subsidiary business? So sir, if I look at our business in the Industrial Systems, which is falling under subsidiaries. So there, we have seen quite a bit of volatility in terms of margin performance. So I just wanted to understand this is also kind of impacting on the overall margins for Industrial business. So how soon we can expect more of steady performance from those subsidiaries?

Amar Kaul

Yes. So from subsidiary, yes, I think what we could control, that has been done in terms of cost and control. But the good news is that the bookings have seen the upward trend, so which means that we continue that momentum and it will show up in revenue in the forthcoming months. So fixed cost is already taken care of. So any increase in revenue will actually make sure that your margins are improving consecutively. And that impact on the overall Industrial business, I would say that is the third one, very, very small portion because the size itself is not very big.

So I was asking abou t the free trade agreement, which is now signed today between India and U.K. and possible engineering goods export opportunity because it is coming under zero tariff now. So what are your views on this particular opportunity?

Amar Kaul

I think this is of high level because this has just happened. And so we have to see what does it mean in terms of exports. Honestly, we are not very, very big. So yes, we have to evaluate and then look at it. And if you see, honestly, this free trade agreement and tariffs, et cetera, it doesn't impact us too much, because if you look at our model for exports, it's mostly FOB or Ex Works kind of thing. So it still goes to customer. And when we interact with customers, most of them are like, any change like that happens, we will have to pick it up. So they don't dump it back on us. So we won't be too worried about these macro economical changes.
