1. At a Glance
Siemens Limited – the German-engineered desi machine that hums across India’s infrastructure, manufacturing, and mobility dreams – just wrapped up Q2 FY26 like a serious overachiever who still got scolded for missing one mark. The company clocked ₹5,171 crore in consolidated revenue (up 16% YoY), ₹485 crore in PAT (down 7.1% YoY thanks to those ₹63 crore demerger costs), and a solid OPM of 12%. Its market cap sits at a glorious ₹1.13 lakh crore, yet the P/E ratio (a nosebleed 66.9x) suggests investors think it’s not an industrial company – it’s a religion.
The stock trades at ₹3,167, far below its ₹4,600 high, perhaps reflecting that “Siemens Energy Demerger Hangover” investors couldn’t quite metabolize. With a ROCE of 15.8% and ROE of 11.8%, Siemens India remains that disciplined topper who doesn’t cheat but still loses marks for neatness. The company is debt-light (₹145 crore debt, seriously!), backed by the ultimate “parental supervision” – Siemens AG Germany holding 75%. If engineering were mythology, Siemens is Vishwakarma himself — except he reports quarterly to Frankfurt.
2. Introduction
Let’s get one thing straight: Siemens Limited isn’t just another capital goods player. It’s the Swiss army knife of industrial India — automation, mobility, digitalization, infrastructure, electrification — they do everything except make tea.
But Q2FY26 was more like an engineering thriller than a corporate quarter. While order books soared past ₹48,000 crore (yes,forty-eight thousand), revenue stayed calm, and profits took a polite step back — “just adjusting for one-time demerger expenses,” as management would say with a German accent.
For a company that builds the brains behind India’s factories, metros, and grids, Siemens has been in the spotlight for another reason lately — its high-voltage separation act. The Energy business, now officially demerged into Siemens Energy India, walked out with turbines and transformers, leaving the parent to focus on smarter infrastructure, digital industries, and mobility. In short, they’ve divorced amicably — and kept the kids.
Still, Siemens India isn’t crying. It’s sitting on ₹1,000 crore of fresh capex — building factories, expanding grids, and doubling transmission capacity. This is the industrial equivalent of a gym bro upgrading his membership from Gold to Platinum while everyone else complains about power cuts.
If you thought industrials were boring, Siemens is here to prove that boardroom demergers can have more drama thanKoffee with Karan— minus the coffee, plus ₹63 crore in transaction expenses.
3. Business Model – WTF Do They Even Do?
Alright, so whatexactlydoes Siemens do? Short answer: everything electric that doesn’t electrocute. Long answer: hold tight.
The company’s portfolio runs across five main business segments, and each is its own ecosystem of tech, steel, and spreadsheets.
Smart Infrastructure (40% of H1 FY25 revenue)– Siemens is the invisible brain of cities. It builds the infrastructure that keeps grids intelligent, buildings efficient, and industrial systems digital. From power generation to consumption, SI integrates automation, sensors, and cloud analytics — think of it as giving Indian factories an IoT soul.
Digital Industries (17%)– This is where Siemens makes factories smarter and machines self-aware (almost). TheirDigital Enterprise Suitehelps manufacturing plants design, simulate, and automate operations faster than an intern hitting Ctrl+C Ctrl+V on Excel.
Mobility (13%)– Trains, metros, and electrified rails — Siemens’ playground. This segment’s ambition? To make Indian Railways as punctual as their German cousins (okay, let’s not dream too big). They recently snagged a ₹1,230 crore contract for signaling on India’s first bullet train project.
Low Voltage Motors (4%)– The silent workhorse. From biscuit factories to chemical plants, their motors keep India spinning. Most are outsourced but carry that Siemens DNA of reliability — or what Indians call “chale toh chand tak.”
Energy (24%)– Until recently, this was Siemens’ crown jewel. Turbines, generators, hybrid power systems — it powered half the country’s grid. But post-April 2025, this segment spun off into a new entity — Siemens Energy India. It’s like a Bollywood breakup: different surnames, but still attending each other’s weddings.
Bottom line? Siemens isn’t an industrial company. It’s India’s digital-electric nervous system. If India 2047 becomes an automation powerhouse, Siemens will be the neural link — with a quarterly call transcript to prove it.
4. Financials Overview
Quarterly Performance Snapshot (₹ crore)
| Metric | Latest Qtr (Sep’25) | YoY Qtr (Sep’24) | Prev Qtr (Jun’25) | YoY % | QoQ % |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 5,171 | 4,457 | 4,347 | 16.0% | 18.9% |
| EBITDA | 617 | 545 | 521 | 13.2% | 18.4% |
| PAT | 485 | 523 | 423 | -7.1% | 14.7% |
| EPS (₹) | 13.6 | 16.0 | 11.9 | -15.0% | 14.3% |
Annualised EPS = ₹13.6 × 4 = ₹54.4P/E = 3,167
/ 54.4 ≈58.2x(a bit lower than the headline because of that earnings dip).
Commentary:Revenue jumped, EBITDA stayed strong, but PAT took a small dent — blame those demerger costs and the German obsession with accounting precision. Still, margins held up at 12%, showing Siemens runs tighter than Indian Railways’ budget. Investors, however, are paying a luxury-tax-level premium for those results — 58x earnings for a capital goods firm.That’s not optimism; that’s devotion.
5. Valuation Discussion – Fair Value Range Only

6. What’s Cooking – News, Triggers, Drama
If Siemens were a Netflix series, Q2FY26 would be called“Demerger Diaries.”
1. Energy Exit:April 2025 – NCLT sanctioned the demerger of Siemens Energy India. Shareholders got a 1:1 swap. Imagine spinning off your power division and still keeping the spotlight.
2. Big Fat Order Book:₹48,260 crore as of September 2025 – enough backlog to keep every German engineer in Pune busy for the next few years.
3. Capex Bonanza:₹1,000 crore in FY24 – with ₹400 Cr going into the Power Transformer factory at Kalwa and ₹190 Cr for a metro train plant at Aurangabad (because every Indian city now wants its own metro).
4. Tax Show-Cause Party:September 2025 – GST notice worth ₹34.8 crore for the Halol lease transfer. That’s less drama, more paperwork. Siemens probably replied, “Noted.”
5. Bullet Train Glory:June 2025 – bagged ₹1,230
