(b) Conclusion on Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022
With respect to the Consolidated Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph (b) of Auditor's Responsibilities section below and based on the consideration of the audit reports for the year ended March 31, 2022 of the other auditors referred to in Other Matters section below, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Consolidated Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standards and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.
Basis for Opinion on the Audited Consolidated Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SAs") specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act"). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in paragraph (a) of Auditor's Responsibilities section below. We are independent of the Group, its joint ventures in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ("ICAI") together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Consolidated Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022 under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in Other Matters section below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Management's Responsibilities for the Statement
This Statement, which includes the Consolidated Financial Results is the responsibility of the Parent's Board of Directors and has been approved by them for the issuance. The Consolidated Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022, has been compiled from the related audited consolidated financial statements. This responsibility includes the preparation and presentation of the Consolidated Financial Results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2022 that give a true and fair view of the consolidated net profit and consolidated other comprehensive income and other financial information of the Group including its joint ventures in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standards, prescribed under Section 133 of the Act, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the Listing Regulations.
The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its joint ventures are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Group and its joint ventures and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the respective financial results that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of preparation of this Consolidated Financial Results by the Directors of the Parent, as aforesaid.

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Results, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its joint ventures are responsible for assessing the ability of the respective entities to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and
using the going concern basis of accounting unless the respective Board of Directors either intends to liquidate their respective entities or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its jointly controlled entities are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group and of its joint ventures.
Auditor's Responsibilities
(a) Audit of the Consolidated Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Consolidated Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022 as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this Consolidated Financial Results.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Annual Consolidated Financial Results, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of such controls.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board of Directors.
- Evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Board of Directors in terms of the requirements specified under Regulation 33,Regulation 52 and Regulation 54 of the Listing Regulations.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group and its joint ventures to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Results or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group and its joint ventures to cease to continue as a going concern.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Annual Consolidated Financial Results, including the disclosures, and whether the Annual Consolidated Financial Results represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Perform procedures in accordance with the circular issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations to the extent applicable.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the Annual Standalone Financial Results/Financial Information of the entities within the Group and its joint ventures to express an opinion on the Annual Consolidated Financial Results. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of financial information of such entities included in the Annual Consolidated Financial Results of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the Annual Consolidated Financial Results, which have been audited by the other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Annual Consolidated Financial Results that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Annual Consolidated Financial Results may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Annual Consolidated Financial Results.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Parent and such other entities included in the Consolidated Financial Results of which we are the independent auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
(b) Review of the Consolidated Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022
We conducted our review of the Consolidated Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410 'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity', issued by the ICAI. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of the Company's personnel responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with SAs specified under section 143(10) of the Act and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
The Statement includes the results of the entities as listed under paragraph (a)(i) of Opinion and Conclusion section above.
We also performed procedures in accordance with the circular issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended, to the extent applicable.
Other Matters
• The Statement includes the results for the Quarter ended March 31, 2022 being the balancing figure between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures up to the third quarter of the current financial year which were subject to limited review by us. Our report is not modified in respect of this matter.

• We did not audit/review the financial statements/financial information of two subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial results, whose financial statements reflect total assets of Rs. 211.77 crore as at March 31, 2022 and total revenues of Rs. 124.03 crore and Rs. 285.36 crore for the quarter and the year ended March 31, 2022, respectively, total net profit after tax of Rs. 2.19 and Rs. 5.66 crore

These financial statements/financial information have been audited/reviewed, by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us by the Management.
These subsidiaries and the joint venture are located outside India whose financial statements/financial and other information have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in their respective countries and have been audited/reviewed by the other auditors under generally accepted auditing standards applicable in such countries. The Company's management has converted these financial statements from accounting principles generally accepted in respective countries to accounting principles generally accepted in India, where applicable. We have audited/reviewed these conversion adjustments made by the Company's management. Our report and conclusion on the Statement, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of these subsidiaries and a joint venture, is based solely on the report of the other auditors, the conversion adjustments prepared by the Management of the Company and audited/reviewed by us and the procedures performed by us as stated under Auditor's Responsibilities section above.
Our report on the Statement is not modified in respect of the above matter with respect to our reliance on the work done and the reports of the other auditors.
• The consolidated financial results includes the Group's share of profit after tax of Rs. Nil and Rs. Nil for the quarter and the year ended March 31, 2022, respectively, and total comprehensive income of Rs. Nil and Rs. Nil for the quarter and the year ended March 31, 2022 respectively, as considered in the Statement, in respect of a joint venture whose financial information has not been audited by us. The carrying amount of investment in the said joint venture is fully written off. In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us by the Board of Directors, having regard to the above, this entity is not material to the Group.
Our report on the Statement is not modified in respect of the above matter.

INDEPENDENT AUD4ITOR'S REPORT ON AUDIT OF ANNUAL STANDALONE FINANCIAL RESULTS AND REVIEW OF QUARTERLY FINANCIAL RESULTS
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF Blue Star Limited
Opinion and Conclusion
We have (a) audited the Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022 and (b) reviewed the Standalone Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (refer 'Other Matter' section below), which were subject to limited review by us, both included in the accompanying "Standalone Financial Results For The Quarter And Year Ended March 31, 2022" ("the Statement") of Blue Star Limited ("the Company"), being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended ("the Listing Regulations").
(a) Opinion on Annual Standalone Financial Results
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022:
- i. is presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33, Regulation 52 and Regulation 54 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended; and
- ii. gives a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standards and other accounting principles generally accepted in India of the net profit and total comprehensive income and other financial information of the Company for the year then ended.
(b) Conclusion on Unaudited Standalone Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022
With respect to the Standalone Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, based on our review conducted as stated in paragraph (b) of Auditor's Responsibilities section below, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Standalone Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standards and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation 33, Regulation 52 and Regulation 54 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.
Basis for Opinion on the Audited Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SAs") specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act"). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in paragraph (a) of Auditor's Responsibilities section below. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ("the

ICAI") together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022 under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Management's Responsibilities for the Statement
This Statement which includes the Standalone Financial Results is the responsibility of the Company's Board of Directors and has been approved by them for the issuance. This responsibility includes the preparation and presentation of the Standalone Financial Results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2022 that give a true and fair view of the net profit and other comprehensive income and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33, Regulation 52 and Regulation 54 of the Listing Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Standalone Financial Results that give a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. The Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022 has been compiled from the related audited standalone financial statements.
In preparing the Standalone Financial Results, the Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability, to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Company.
Auditor's Responsibilities
(a) Audit of the Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2022 as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this Standalone Financial Results.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Annual Standalone Financial Results, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board of Directors.
- Evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Board of Directors in terms of the requirements specified under Regulation 33, Regulation 52 and Regulation 54 of Listing Regulations.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Statement or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Annual Standalone Financial Results, including the disclosures, and whether the Annual Standalone Financial Results represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the Annual Standalone Financial Results of the Company to express an opinion on the Annual Standalone Financial Results.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Annual Standalone Financial Results that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Annual Standalone Financial Results may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Annual Standalone Financial Results.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
(b) Review of the Standalone Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022
We conducted our review of the Standalone Financial Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements ("SRE") 2410 'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity', issued by the ICAI. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of the Company's personnel responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with SAs specified under section 143(10) of the Act and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Other Matter
The Statement includes the results for the Quarter ended March 31, 2022 being the balancing figure between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures up to the third quarter of the current financial year which were subject to limited review by us. Our report on the Statement is not modified in respect of this matter.

PRESS RELEASE
Blue Star reports record revenue and profits in Q4FY22; Consolidated FY22 Revenue grows 41.8% to Rs 6045.58 crores; Operating Profit grows 44.5% to Rs 346.47 crores
Good demand for the Company's offerings across all business segments coupled with an early onset of summer in some parts of the country, helped Blue Star register a robust revenue growth. The momentum gained in Q3FY22 continued in Q4FY22 despite a three-week disruption caused by the Omicron variant. Against this backdrop, the Company delivered record revenue and profits in Q4FY22 and ended the year on a high note despite losing the 2021 summer season.
Consolidated Financial Performance for Q4FY22
- Revenue from operations for Q4FY22 grew by 39.5% to an all-time high of Rs 2247.58 crores compared to Rs 1611.56 crores in Q4FY21.
- The Operating Profit (PBIDTA excluding Other Income and Finance Income) for Q4FY22 was Rs 142.95 crores (6.4% of revenue) compared to Rs 101.81 crores (6.3% of revenue) for Q4FY21.
- Profit before tax grew by 9.2% to Rs 113.91 crores in Q4FY22 compared to Rs 104.32 crores in Q4FY21.
- Net profit for Q4FY22 grew by 12.0% to Rs 76.27 crores compared to Rs 68.09 crores in Q4FY21.
• Healthy cash from operations enabled a reduction of Rs 97.97 crores in net borrowings in Q4FY22 compared to Q3FY22.
Consolidated Financial Performance for FY22
- The Company has reported Revenue from Operations of Rs 6045.58 crores for the year ended March 31, 2022, on a consolidated basis, compared to Rs 4263.59 crores during FY21, representing a growth of 41.8%.
- The Operating Profit (PBIDTA excluding Other Income and Finance Income) for the year was Rs 346.47 crores (5.7% of revenue) compared to Rs 239.81 crores (5.6% of revenue) in FY21.
- Net Profit for the year was Rs 168.00 crores compared to Rs 100.66 crores in FY21, representing a growth of 66.9%.
- Finance Cost for the year was at Rs 46.40 crores compared with Rs 64.72 crores in FY21 due to lower average gross borrowings and lower cost of funds during the year.
- Tax expense for FY22 was Rs 82.90 crores compared to Rs 47.09 crores in FY21.
- Net borrowing as of March 2022 was Rs 67.14 crores compared to a net cash balance of Rs 151.45 crores as of March 2021 due to a planned advancement in inventory levels related to the procurement of long-lead raw materials and components in order to de-risk supply chain constraints, and capacity expansion capital investments in the new manufacturing projects at Sri City.
- The Company had raised Rs 350 crores through the issue of Unsecured Non-Convertible Debentures (NCD) in June 2020 in order to strengthen its Balance Sheet with a repayment tenor of 3 years and a call option to repay 50% of the NCD in May 2022. The Company proposes to exercise the said call option and reduce the residual NCD obligation on the back of its strong fund position.
- Earnings per share for the year (Face value of Rs 2.00) was Rs 17.44 vis-à-vis Rs 10.42 in the previous year.
• Carried Forward Order Book as on March 31, 2022, stood at Rs 3253.30 crores compared to Rs 2952.42 crores as on March 31, 2021.
Consolidated Segment Performance
- Revenue of the Electro-Mechanical Projects and Commercial Air Conditioning Systems business grew by 44.0% to Rs 3,194.46 crores in FY22 compared to Rs 2,218.72 crores in FY21 driven by the revival of the construction cycle and the improved pace of execution. Segment Result for FY22 grew by 82.9% to Rs 194.82 crores compared to Rs 106.49 crores in FY21. The inflow of orders from the factories and Light Industrial sector continued to be encouraging driven by the continued focus on Make in India initiatives of the Government. Order inflows from the Commercial Buildings sector also started gaining momentum. Revival of demand from the Builder, Retail, and Education segments, coupled with continued opportunities from the Industrial, Healthcare, and Government customer segments, enabled growth in revenue for the Commercial Air Conditioning systems business.
- Unitary Products revenue grew by 39.4% to Rs 2,603.77 crores in FY22 compared to Rs 1,868.28 crores in FY21. Strong pent-up demand coupled with the onset of early summers, and an improvement in the consumer sentiments across the country enabled good growth in revenue for the Room Air Conditioners business. The Commercial Refrigeration business witnessed increased traction across all product categories owing to the revival of demand from traditional customer segments such as Ice cream, Processed Foods, Dairy, and Restaurants. This, in addition to increased demand from the Pharma, Healthcare, QSRs, and Food Delivery segments enabled revenue growth. Segment Result grew by 43.2% to Rs 155.86 crores for FY22 compared to Rs 108.82 crores in FY21. Increase in input costs coupled with the disruptions in the international supply chain and increased lead time for supplies continued to exert margin pressures in this segment.
- The Professional Electronics and Industrial Systems business revenue grew by 40.1% to Rs 247.35 crores in FY22 compared to Rs 176.59 crores in FY21. The revival of private sector CAPEX, increase in spends related to data security solutions, and improvement in demand across all segments, enabled strong growth in revenue. Segment Result grew by 25.7% to Rs 42.49 crores in FY22 compared to Rs 33.81 crores in FY21. Segment profitability improved due to a growth in revenue and a few high-margin orders.
Dividend
The Directors have recommended a dividend of Rs 10 per equity share of Rs 2 each for FY22.
Outlook
Vir S. Advani, Vice Chairman & Managing Director, Blue Star Limited adds, "I am happy that we could end the year on a strong note with healthy growth across all segments. With the ebbing of the pandemic impact, the business and market disruptions have progressively reduced, aiding growth and revival of opportunities. After the washout of two consecutive summers, we are witnessing strong demand for room air conditioners in Q1FY23. With the launch of our new 'Affordable Premium' range of room air conditioners, we are growing faster than the market. The market for commercial refrigeration products is also growing, and with a wide range of offerings across various segments such as Ice Cream, Pharma, Horticulture, and Food Delivery, Blue Star is well placed to consolidate its leadership position. With the increase in corporate CAPEX and revival of demand from traditional customer segments, prospects for growth in the Electro-Mechanical Projects and Commercial Air Conditioning business are encouraging.
"Given the ongoing geopolitical conflict between Russia and Ukraine, input cost pressure and supply chain challenges are expected to continue for a while. However, we have taken adequate measures to mitigate the risks. Our cost optimization initiatives and prudent working capital management will help us to sustain growth, profitability, and a strong balance sheet.
"We are confident of building on the momentum gained in Q3FY22 and Q4FY22 into Q1FY23 and the subsequent quarters."
