Financial Performance of Dhoot Transmission

Figures below are drawn from the company's restated financials as reflected on the current IPO Ji offer page, in ₹ crore.

• Total income grew from ₹2,799.32 Cr in FY24, to ₹3,472.24 Cr in FY25, to ₹4,563.70 Cr in FY26.
• Profit After Tax rose each year — ₹298.75 Cr (FY24), ₹353.89 Cr (FY25), ₹396.84 Cr (FY26).
• Net Worth increased sharply from ₹741.01 Cr (FY24) to ₹978.18 Cr (FY25) to ₹2,397.15 Cr (FY26) — the FY26 jump reflects the BC Asia Tranche 2 equity issuance completed in March 2026.
• Reserves & Surplus moved from ₹724.74 Cr (FY24) to ₹961.53 Cr (FY25) to ₹2,360.40 Cr (FY26).
• Total Assets grew from ₹1,711.70 Cr (FY24) to ₹2,336.23 Cr (FY25) to ₹4,114.83 Cr (FY26).
• Total Borrowings rose from ₹554.90 Cr (FY24) to ₹776.06 Cr (FY25) to ₹841.39 Cr (FY26) — growing more slowly than revenue and net worth over the same period.

At the upper price band, the IPO reflects a post-issue EPS of ₹19.65, a post-issue P/E of 44.33, RoNW of 16.55%, and an estimated market capitalisation of approximately ₹17,815.53 crore.

Strengths of Dhoot Transmission

• Strong customer relationships with key OEMs. The company has established relationships with several of India's largest two-wheeler and three-wheeler OEMs, which supports recurring business and revenue visibility.
• Product portfolio aligned with EV adoption. Dhoot Transmission's product range extends to components used in electric vehicles, positioning it to benefit from the shift toward EVs.
• Diversified automotive electrical product mix. The company's product categories span wiring harnesses, battery packs, sensors, controls, and switches, creating scope for cross-selling across existing OEM relationships.

Risks of Dhoot Transmission

• High dependence on 2W, 3W, and wiring harnesses. A significant share of revenue comes from India's two-wheeler and three-wheeler markets through wiring harness sales, concentrating the business in a few vehicle segments.
• Customer concentration. The company's top ten customers account for more than 80% of its revenue in recent periods. The loss of any major customer could materially affect performance.
• No long-term volume commitments. OEM customers do not provide long-term volume guarantees. Any change, cancellation, or reduction in customer orders could adversely affect the business.

These risks are drawn directly from the offer documents' disclosures and aren't exhaustive — anyone evaluating this IPO should read the full "Risk Factors" section of the Red Herring Prospectus before forming a view.

Dhoot Transmission IPO Review 2026

Dhoot Transmission is a nearly three-decade-old E&E manufacturer with a footprint across four countries and long-standing relationships with major two-wheeler and three-wheeler OEMs. At the same time, the business remains concentrated — both in the 2W/3W wiring-harness segment and among a small set of top customers who account for the bulk of revenue, with no long-term volume commitments locking in future orders.

This is not a recommendation to take any action — it's a summary of what's publicly disclosed, meant to help you ask better questions before you decide anything for yourself.
