Meanwhile, Saurabh Mukherjea-led Marcellus Investment Managers recently exited Tata Elxsi, which was a part of the firm's Rising Giants PMS portfolio. The fund house attributed the exit largely to expectations of better internal rate of return from new additions--Escorts Kubota, Coforge and CMS Info Systems.
Tata Elxsi posted a 6 percent sequential decline in its Q1 net profit to Rs 184 crore, while its revenue was marginally up 2 percent to Rs 926 crore.
Brokerage firm HDFC Securities sees a high certainty of double-digit growth in FY25,
driven by client and sub-segment skew, which is seen as a positive for Tata Elxsi. Aside from that, on the segmental front, the brokerage expects the company's transportation vertical to continue to drive growth in FY25-26 while the media and communications, and healthcare and lifesciences segments are expected to recover in FY26.
" The rate of recovery in the non- transportation segment will determine the trajectory in valuation multiples, following its de-rating over the past two years," the brokerage added.
