Blue Star Outlook

Vir S Advani, chairman and managing director at Blue Star said that 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," Adani said.

 

In addition, the strong order book for Electro-Mechanical Projects and Commercial Air Cleaning Projects and the growing demand from manufacturing and data centre market segments will contribute to growth. The company remains optimistic on the growth prospects and is closely watching the geopolitical developments for potential supply chain disruptions and volatility in commodity prices.
