ABB India’s order book hit a record Rs 4,363 crore for the June 2026 quarter, up 50% year-on-year from Rs 2,917 crore, the company announced in results released on Saturday, August 1, 2026.
Revenue from operations climbed 21% year-on-year to Rs 3,558.87 crore, while net profit for the quarter rose 3% year-on-year to Rs 362.30 crore.
Operational EBITA grew 23% year-on-year to Rs 461 crore, with margins up 20 basis points to 13.0%, despite higher freight, energy and commodity costs including copper, silver and electrical steel.
The company attributed its performance to strong demand in electrification, data centres, renewables, metals and infrastructure, with higher volumes, pricing discipline and cost optimisation supporting margins.
A special dividend of Rs 90 per equity share was declared by the board alongside the quarterly results.
The record order intake gives ABB India a strong revenue pipeline for coming quarters, as large-scale electrification and automation contracts are usually executed over an extended timeline.
The company said margins were partly offset by higher freight, energy and commodity costs, including copper, silver and electrical steel, even as pricing strategies and cost optimisation helped protect profitability.
ABB India is the local listed arm of Swiss-Swedish engineering group ABB, and supplies electrification, automation and robotics equipment to sectors ranging from utilities to manufacturing across the country.
A record quarterly order intake typically signals revenue visibility for several quarters ahead, since large electrification and automation contracts are usually executed over an extended delivery timeline.
ABB India reports its results on a calendar-year basis, meaning the quarter covered in this announcement runs from April to June 2026, aligning with the global parent company’s own reporting calendar.
The half-year period through June 2026 has also seen steady order momentum for the company, building on a broader capital expenditure cycle across Indian utilities, manufacturing and data centre construction.
