The full read
Schneider Electric Infrastructure closed the fiscal year with ₹2,890.6 crore in revenue, a 9.6% gain over the previous year. Profitability slipped, with net profit falling to ₹212.5 crore from ₹267.8 crore.
Then came the fourth quarter.
Revenue plummeted to ₹586.9 crore from the ₹1,020.2 crore recorded in the previous quarter, a sharp sequential contraction that forces a re-evaluation of the company's growth trajectory. The board has moved to secure leadership continuity by re-appointing Udai Singh as MD and CEO for another three years. Meanwhile, the company is turning to shareholders to approve material related-party transactions with Schneider Electric IT Business India Private Limited. The combination of a cooling top line and new governance items on the ballot makes the upcoming postal ballot a critical test for the company's long-term capital allocation strategy.
