Ashwath Ram, Managing Director, Cummins India Limited, said:
Economic activities and business sentiment picked up from Q2 FY’20. This, coupled with pent up demand, saw revenue growth recovering from Q2. Government spending on infrastructure and continued strength in Industrial and Powergen segments helped in sequential recovery up to Q3. The onset of the second wave of COVID-19 in March 2021 has impacted overall economic recovery. With vaccinations likely to pick up in coming weeks, case rates should decline, so we expect the economy to recover from the end of Q2 FY’22 and we expect quarterly improvement. We continue to closely monitor our end markets and are well prepared to scale when the economy picks up.COVID-19 impacted our export business as well. Demand started to show gradual improvement in Q3 FY’21. As vaccination rates pick up globally, economic activities are restarting, and we believe most of our end markets will fully recover in FY 22.
