Amber is well-positioned to benefit from a 17% CAGR in the AC industry over the next seven years, supported by under-penetration and hot weather trends in India.
In the Electronics Vertical, the imposition of Anti-Dumping Duty (ADD) on PCBs enabled Amber to acquire new customers, with OPM expected to rise to 7-8%, compared to 4% two years ago. The company targets 45% growth, surpassing Jefferies’ estimates.
In the Mobility segment, Amber’s order book remains strong at ₹2,070 crore, with the company aiming to double sales over the next three years.
Jefferies expects Components division sales to grow at a 26% CAGR over FY24-27e, outpacing the 16% CAGR for the RAC segment, contributing to a projected 170bps OPM rise to 9% by FY27e. Jefferies maintains a PE multiple of 37x, in line with the company’s five-year average.
Amber’s long-term outlook appears promising, with strong growth potential across segments, making it a key player in the Indian AC and electronics markets.
