Cummins India’s first-quarter revenue exceeded analyst estimates, but commodity costs pushed margins to their weakest level in more than three years, according to NDTV Profit. Brokerages said earnings missed expectations despite the stronger revenue performance. Jefferies cut its target price and earnings estimates, while retaining its Buy rating. The company also saw its managing director resign during the quarter. Jefferies expects pricing, data centres, distribution and indigenisation to support profitability. Investors will watch upcoming results for signs of margin recovery and assess whether the management change affects operations. Current information does not establish a clear long-term trend.
