ABB India shares declined over 2% in morning trade on Monday after the company posted its financial results for the second quarter of calendar year 2025 (Q2CY25), revealing a mixed performance. As of 9:19 AM, the shares were trading 2.08% lower at Rs 5,275.50.

The engineering and technology major reported a 20.7% year-on-year (YoY) fall in net profit to ₹351.7 crore, compared to ₹443.5 crore in the same quarter last year. This drop came despite a healthy 12.2% YoY increase in revenue to ₹3,175.4 crore, up from ₹2,831 crore.

Operating performance was hit during the quarter. EBITDA fell by 27% YoY to ₹441 crore, while EBITDA margins contracted sharply to 13% from 19.2%, affected by forex volatility and certain one-off costs. Still, this marked ABB India’s 11th consecutive quarter of maintaining double-digit EBITDA margins, underlining operational resilience.

Order inflow during Q2CY25 stood at ₹3,036 crore, down from ₹3,435 crore in the year-ago period, mainly due to the timing of large orders. However, base orders remained strong, and ABB India achieved a major milestone with its order backlog crossing ₹10,000 crore for the first time, reaching ₹10,064 crore as of the first half of 2025.

The company’s board also declared an interim dividend of ₹9.77 per equity share. In a boost to its sustainability credentials, CRISIL reaffirmed ABB India’s ESG rating as “strong.”
