The full read
Jash Engineering has lowered its revenue guidance for FY27 to ₹875 crore, down from its previous target of ₹950-1,000 crore. The downgrade follows a shift in management's outlook on US trade policy. After previously holding out for a favorable trade deal, the company is now pricing new orders at a 50% tariff rate. This adjustment, combined with persistent raw material inflation, has forced a more conservative outlook. Despite the guidance cut, the company maintains an order book of ₹899 crore, which covers 108% of its revised revenue target. Management is targeting gross margins of 50-55% and PAT margins of 12-13% for the year. The reality for investors is that the company is no longer betting on a policy reprieve; it is building a cost structure that assumes the current tariff environment is here to stay.
