EPACK Durable Ltd (EPACK) Q2FY26 Concall Summary - Sep-2025 Qtr
Performance Overview
- The company experienced a muted quarter, with performance significantly impacted by an inventory overhang from Q1, which was caused by unseasonal rains and a delay between the announcement and implementation of the GST rate reduction on air conditioners.
- A short-lived rebound in demand was observed during the festive season (Navratri and Diwali) post the GST rate cut, which helped liquidate some channel inventory, but the momentum did not sustain through October.
- The company is actively executing its diversification strategy to reduce reliance on the Room Air Conditioner (RAC) segment. This is reflected in the strong growth momentum seen in the Small Domestic Appliances (SDA), Large Domestic Appliances (LDA), and Components segments.
- Strategic capital investments continued with a CapEx of INR 129 crores in Q2, primarily for capacity expansion and equipment installation, including the new dedicated facility for Hisense, which is now ready for trial production.
- Despite the challenging quarter for the core RAC business, management expressed confidence in its diversification efforts to drive overall revenue growth for the full financial year, even as the AC industry is expected to remain flat.
