Suprajit Engineering (SEL) delivered decent revenue growth although with subdued margin performance in 2Q. Consol Revenue at Rs 3.9bn (+16% YoY) led by strong growth in core cable business, offset by muted growth in Phoenix (flat YoY) and seasonally weak quarter for Wescon. Consol EBITDA de-grew 5% YoY to Rs 531mn with disappointing margin at 13.6% led by rise in commodity prices and freight cost. SEL has been able to pass on most of the cost increase, however benefit will come from 3Q (lag effect).
