23.7% Revenue Growth in Fasteners; EV Segment Pivots After ₹280 Cr Revenue Loss
Sterling Tools reported a robust Q1 FY27 for its standalone fasteners business, with revenue growing 23.7% YoY to ₹201.9 cr and PAT surging 48.4% to ₹16.4 cr. The EV subsidiary (SEMS) is recovering from a significant ₹280 cr revenue loss caused by a major anchor customer in-sourcing components. Management is diversifying the EV portfolio with 33 active programs and expects new production lines for onboard chargers to commission in Q2 FY27. While steel price hikes pose a near-term margin risk, the standalone business remains net debt-free.
Confidence: HIGH

Why it mattersThis pivot is critical for de-risking the business after the loss of major EV revenue and positions the company to capture higher value-add in the evolving EV and safety regulation landscape.

📅 Short termPositive momentum in the core fasteners business is likely to support the stock, though investors should be cautious about potential margin compression from rising steel costs in Q2.

Confidence: HIGH
What changedThe company is successfully growing its core fastener business while simultaneously pivoting its EV subsidiary from a single-customer focus to a diversified portfolio of 33 programs.
