  • Trial production is expected to commence in Q4 FY27, with commercial production starting by Q1 FY28.
  • Volume targets: Begin with ~8 million units in Year 1 (FY28), ramp up to 13-15 million units in Year 2 (FY29).
  • Commence with assembly and SMT operations, with a roadmap to progressively deepen value addition into components like high-density interconnect printed circuit boards (HDI PCBs).
  • Target to increase local value addition to 35-40% over the next 5-6 years (from an industry baseline of 10-12%).
  • EBITDA margins expected to be in line with industry standards: 1.5% to 2% at commencement, depending on the model mix (higher-end models ~1.5-1.7%, lower-end models see a higher percentage).
  • The business is characterized as low working capital intensity (4-10 days networking capital) and asset-light, expected to be ROCE accretive (>30-35% on a standalone basis).
  • The revenue recognition model (gross vs. job work) is flexible and will be determined by Oppo India's preference, but the bottom-line margin is fixed.
