Motherson Sumi Systems Ltd.'s Rs 1.43 lakh-crore order book will drive growth in next financial year despite the slowdown in the auto sector, according to its Chairman Vivek Chaand Sehgal.
“There is going to be more growth as all these orders are going to be fructified into factories and manufacturing which we are supplying to the customers,” Sehgal told BloombergQuint in an interview. “We have added 3.8 billion euros on our top line from our order book in the last six months.”
The auto components maker is “not concerned” about the increasing net debt level as “they are moving up marginally due to foreign exchange fluctuations”, Sehgal said, adding that the firm may also dilute its equity to ensure it is not overburdened by debt in the long-term.
Shares of the company rose 3.8 percent to Rs 135.50 apiece on Monday compared to a flat Nifty Index.
