The company sustained its growth momentum in FY25, driven by strong demand across key businesses. Notably, the room AC business achieved exceptional growth during the year due to demand fueled by an intense summer and stocking by channel partners to tackle potential supply chain uncertainties, Blue Star said in its earnings statement. With respect to the outlook, Vir S. Advani, vice chairman & managing director, Blue Star, said, 'This is the third consecutive year of exceptional financial results. The year ended on a positive note, especially with the room AC business recording remarkable performance, owing to strong demand expectations from a harsh summer forecast and proactive dealer stocking. Although April saw milder weather and softer growth, going by the weather forecasts, we expect the demand to pick up in May and June 2025. The hurdles faced by the commercial refrigeration business are behind us. The strong order book for ElectroMechanical Projects and Commercial Air Conditioning products and the growing demand from manufacturing and data center market segments will contribute to growth. While we remain optimistic about the growth prospects, we are keeping a close watch on the geopolitical developments, potential supply chain disruptions, and volatility in commodity prices.'
