Ashwath Ram, Managing Director, Cummins India Limited, said:
Post-Covid waves 1 and 2, the Indian economy rebounded strongly due to various factors like mass vaccination, proactive fiscal policy measures directed towards ease of doing business, Make in India, etc. Monetary policy remained accommodative with a soft interest rate scenario till recent times. Besides, pent-up demand was broad-based across various segments of the economy. We believe that despite supply chain disruptions, high commodity costs, and geopolitical issues, India is on the path to sustained economic recovery considering strong domestic demand and robust export performance. Economic recovery is visible with record monthly GST collections over ₹ 1 Lakh Cr. for most of the year; increased spending on discretionary items; Capex, primarily private Capex cycle is slowly coming back. An elevated level of inflation and associated actions to contain inflation from the Government and the RBI to raise interest rates may to some extent, impact demand in the near to medium term.
I am pleased to announce that Cummins India Limited, its associate and JV companies Cummins Generator Technologies India Pvt Limited, and Valvoline Cummins Private Limited, posted record annual revenue in FY’22. This record revenue performance was possible due to focused and dedicated efforts of our employees, supply chain partners, and continued strong support from Cummins Inc. to help us meet customer demand. I am delighted that our teams delivered record revenue despite significant supply chain disruptions. We continue to leverage our globally integrated supply chain to address the supply challenges, and our endeavor remains to sustain profitable growth in this challenging inflationary business environment.
Future Outlook:
We expect continued growth momentum for the economy, and we are also hopeful that the lagging segments will rebound in FY’23. We anticipate that India’s growth momentum will sustain with a strong push from the Government through policy interventions and infrastructure spending coupled with an improvement in supply chain situation. However, world trade continues to be impacted by Covid-19, and its variants are still active in some parts of the world alongside geopolitical tensions and other challenges. Inflationary impact, especially commodities, continues to be a challenge, and we continue to take tactical pricing and productivity actions to mitigate the same.
Given the uncertainty in the current business environment due to geopolitical situation and supply chain challenges, the company is not providing full-year revenue guidance for FY’23.
