Contribution from these next-gen products has already scaled up meaningfully, accounting for
nearly 28% of consolidated revenue in FY25, reflecting rising customer adoption. The company’s
entry into the cover glass segment further opens a new high-growth vertical, reinforcing its
positioning in the premium category—where differentiated, value-added products continue to
outpace demand for conventional offerings.
Strengthens Market Position with Strategic Wins
SJS Enterprises achieved a key breakthrough by securing orders from Hero MotoCorp, India’s
largest two-wheeler OEM, with supplies already underway across multiple models. This
development positions SJS as a trusted vendor to all leading 2W OEMs in the country. Hero
currently procures decals and logos worth ~₹2.5 bn annually, presenting a significant wallet-
share opportunity for SJS, alongside potential for cross-selling its broader product portfolio. On
the export front, SJS has secured new business awards from marquee clients such as Stellantis
and Whirlpool. Supplies to Stellantis are slated to commence from Q2FY26, with volumes
expected to scale gradually over the year. Expanding international revenue remains a strategic
focus, with the company targeting exports to account for ~14–15% of consolidated revenue by
FY28E (vs 7.3% in FY25). Domestically, SJS has also begun supplying in-mold labeled (IML) parts
to Mahindra’s Born Electric platform—marking its first entry into Mahindra’s EV portfolio with
IML technology. These new order wins, particularly from OEMs like Hero and Stellantis, are
expected to meaningfully augment revenue visibility and underpin management’s guidance of
delivering ~2x the industry growth in FY26E. Notably, the company’s FY26 execution pipeline is
already over 85% covered, lending strong revenue predictability.

SJS Enterprises continues to deliver superior margin performance, with EBITDA surpassing
expectations, while revenue growth remains steady. We revise our estimates upwards,
projecting a Revenue/EBITDA CAGR of ~17%/19% over FY25–FY27E. Strategic acquisitions like
SJS Decoplast and WPI, coupled with sustained innovation, have strengthened its competitive
positioning. The company is well-placed to capitalize on premiumization-led demand and
sector tailwinds. With industry-leading margins, strong return ratios (ROE in high teens, ROCE
>25%), and attractive valuations, we assign a P/E of 24x on FY27E EPS of ₹59 and maintain a
BUY rating with a TP of ₹1,406.

Key Takeaways from Conference Call:


Industry Outlook & Company Guidance:
• SJS expects 2W growth in FY26E to be in high single digits and PVs growth in mid-single
digits. SJS targets to outperform the underlying industry growth by about 2x in FY26E.

• Consumer business experienced some soft demand in Q4 FY25, particularly in Europe, but
the long-term growth story is positive. Overall, the consumer business grew strongly for the
full year FY25.
Capacity Expansion:
• The exchange facility at Pune is on track for commissioning in H1FY26E. This facility will
enhance manufacturing capabilities and meet growing demand for premium chrome-plated
and painted products.

• An additional capex of ~ ₹400 to 450 mn is planned during FY26 to increase production


capacity at the SJS plant in Bangalore due to significant new business opportunities.

• For the SJS Decoplast (formerly Exotech) expansion, ₹1,000 mn were allocated. ~ ₹300 mn
has been incurred so far, with the remaining ₹700 mn expected to be incurred during the
FY26E.

• For the cover glass business, 400 mn rupees have been allocated for expansion, which will
happen during FY26 and FY27.

• Beyond these special capex plans (Exotech/SJS Decoplast, cover glass, SJS Bangalore), the
company also plans for maintenance capex, which is expected to be closely ₹150 to ₹200
per annum.

• The total planned capex for FY26E is ~ ₹1,500 mn.

• Looking at a 3-year scenario, the total capex allocation is planned to be close to ₹2,200 mn.
New Business Wins:
• Secured a breakthrough with Hero Motocorp in April 2025, being awarded businesses across
multiple models, positioning SJS as a trusted supplier to all leading 2W OEMs. Products
supplied to Hero initially will be decals and logos. Hero’s current buying for decals and logos
is approximately ₹2,500 mn, and SJS hopes to win a significant share of this, plus cross-
selling opportunities. Supplies have started.

• Successful new business awards in export markets with customers like Stellantis and
Whirlpool. The Stellantis business is close to ₹3,000 mn over the next 7-8 years, with supplies
starting in Q2FY26E and gradually ramping up. The Whirlpool order (₹500 mn over 5 years) is
also expected to start supplies around Q2FY26E.

• Started supplying IML parts to the Mahindra born electric range of vehicles.
Export Growth and Strategy:
• Growing the export business is a strategic priority, with a target to increase exports to ~14-
15% of consolidated revenue by FY28E.

• Export business is considered more profitable compared to domestic business. The company
believes India, especially in the printing industry, has a natural advantage globally, making
them competitive even with potential tariffs.

S.J.S. ENTERPRISES LIMITED | Q4 FY25 Result Update

Focus on Premiumization and New Technologies:


• Premiumization is a key growth pillar. Contribution from new generation products increased
from ~13% of total revenue in FY21 to ~28% in FY25. New technologies include cover glass
(for displays) and IML/IMD products. The IML/IMD market in India is still developing but has
huge potential, with product values per vehicle ranging from ₹500 to ₹5,000. Investment in
Walter Pack was made due to this potential.
Capacity Utilization:
• SJS plant: ~70%.

• SJS Decoplast (formerly Exotic Plastics): Running at 95%, necessitating the expansion.

• Walter Pack: ~75%.


Tariffs:
• Management is not unduly bothered by potential tariffs (e.g., from the US) as India is at
the lower end of the tariff spectrum compared to competitors, and manufacturing in the
US is cost-prohibitive for their products. OEMs are also de-risking by sourcing content from
countries like India.
ESOP Charge:
• The ESOP charge for the FY25 was ₹~80 mn and is expected to remain similar
