ABB India Q4 CY25 Results
ABB India reported a consolidated profit after tax of ₹432.85 crore for Q4 CY25, down 18% from ₹528.41 crore in the corresponding period last year.
Revenue from operations increased 5.7% year-on-year to ₹3,557.01 crore.
While net profit declined, operating performance remained steady. Adjusted EBITDA margin stood at 17.2% after excluding exceptional items related to labour code implementation. The margins came in above expectations.
Order Inflows Jump 52% to ₹4,096 Crore
The key trigger for the stock move was the order momentum.

For the full calendar year 2025, orders stood at ₹14,115 crore. The company said order growth was driven by strong base business demand along with the timing of large project wins. The order backlog provides visibility for execution over the coming quarters.

Record date is May 2, 2026. If approved, the dividend will be paid after May 9, 2026, to eligible shareholders.
