ABB India Reports Q1 Revenue Growth Amid Profit Decline; Stock Rated 'Hold' by Analysts

ABB India reported a 6% year-on-year revenue increase to Rs 3,185 crore in the January-March 2026 quarter, supported by strong order inflows and a 17% rise in executable order backlog to Rs 11,094 crore. Net profit declined 25% to Rs 342 crore due to higher input costs, adverse revenue mix, and forex volatility. The company highlighted growth in electrification, data centres, and infrastructure segments, while facing margin pressures. Analysts downgraded the stock to 'Hold' with a target price of Rs 6,523, citing elevated costs and competitive challenges despite robust order momentum.
