According to the management, the government&#8217;s infrastructure focus, improving private capex and strong momentum in real estate supported strong wires and cables revenue growth in Q1FY24.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cable growth was better than wires in June Quarter FY24. Speaking on Wire &amp; Cable mix, Chirayu Upadhyaya, Head of Investor relations, Polycab India said, \u201cIn FY23, our mix between cables and wires was at about 70%\u201330%. This quarter, cables would have gained about 100\u2013200 bps on that.\u201d Volume growth in the wires &amp; cables business has been phenomenal, nearly 50-60% YoY in June Quarter 2023. According to the management, cable growth was contributed by the infrastructure sector (mainly roadways, railways and highways), electricity transmission and distribution, and real estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FMEG growth to be supported by new product launch<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FMEG business revenue growth was muted during the quarter as weak consumer sentiment weighed down on sales. FMEG revenue grew 2% YoY to Rs 315 crore in Q1FY24. Upadhyaya said that though inflation is in control, customers are making small ticket purchases more than discretionary or higher ticket spending. The management is confident that consumer spending will pick up in the next two quarters. Polycab India is also making efforts by improving channel distribution and plans to launch 50-60 new SKUs in Q2-Q3FY24. Gandharv Tongia, CFO &amp; Executive Director, Polycab India said, \u201cWe will be able to get to a 10% EBITDA margin in the FMEG space by FY26.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Will the growth momentum continue for Polycab India<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Capacity utilization of the manufacturing sector was around 74% in 2022. This has spurred corporates to move from maintenance capital expenditure (capex)&nbsp; to \u2018discretionary capex\u2019. Government\u2019s capex plan of Rs 10 trillion investment in FY24 for infrastructure growth is in full swing. The Central public sector enterprises (CPSEs) have already spent 32% of their allocated capex in the first three months of FY24, said Tongia. The Ministry of Road Transport &amp; Highways and Railways have already spent 38% and 33% respectively of their budgetary allocation. The state governments have also joined the capex space and real estate sustained its impressive growth momentum. This has led to strong domestic demand for the wires &amp; cables industry and is expected to sustain as both government and private sector contribute to India\u2019s strong economic growth. Volume growth in the wires and cable business ranges between 1.5x and 2x of real GDP growth. Wires and cables constitute 89% of Polycab India\u2019s revenue mix. Global wires and cables industry is nearly $ 250 billion and Polycab India aims to be in the top five players in the world. Exports contribute nearly 8-9% of consolidated revenue and are expected to touch 10% revenue contribution by FY26. With domestic economy and exports on the upswing, Polycab India is on a strong growth footing for the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Polycab India reported highest ever quarterly revenues and net profit in June Quarter 2023.
