Rosemerta aims for 30-35% growth in FY2027 through technology and mobile solutions development

Rosemerta Group aims to achieve 30–35% growth in the 2027 fiscal year (FY27). This forecast follows the group's completion of the 2026 fiscal year (FY26) with revenue of approximately 1,200–1,250 crore rupees. Growth will be driven by expanding the company's activities beyond traditional automotive components into technological and mobile solutions.

The company is focusing on areas such as telematics, connected vehicle platforms, digitalization of public services, and road safety solutions, while simultaneously increasing production capacity.

Karn Nagpal, President of Rosemerta Group, emphasized that the company is not a typical auto component manufacturer because its operations encompass technological platforms, connectivity management, telematics, and both public and private services, in addition to manufacturing.

This year, the company plans to commission two plants for producing Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), expecting the business in this sector to nearly double during FY27. Furthermore, one of the main plants will be relocated to a larger site in Manesar in the coming months. Currently, the group operates approximately seven or eight plants serving various segments, including telematics, High Security Registration Plates (HSRP), DEF, and vehicle recycling.

Vehicle recycling and DEF production, which are relatively new to the group, have become key growth areas. The company forecasts doubling its DEF business this year, following the growth rates observed in the previous year.

Nagpal noted that the group's growth is increasingly linked to the transition to software-enabled and connected vehicles. Rosemerta has been operating in the telematics sector for almost ten years, providing communication solutions to both Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and the aftermarket. As connectivity extends beyond electric vehicles to internal combustion engine vehicles, demand for connected vehicle platforms and telematics is expected to increase.

Additionally, thanks to a recent acquisition, the group's platform now includes nearly 200,000 electric two-wheelers. The company anticipates that the growing penetration of e-scooters and the increasing need for connected features and software updates will create additional opportunities.

Rosemerta also expects growth from its new road safety division, which includes fire suppression and fire alarm systems for buses. The company is currently conducting pilot tests of these systems with bus manufacturers, both for electric and internal combustion engine models, and deliveries of fire extinguishers for passenger cars have already begun.

Nagpal added that the company is betting on the growing adoption of connected vehicles, as connectivity is becoming an integral part of both EVs and ICE vehicles.

The company finished FY26 with a growth of 35–40% and total revenue of approximately 1,200–1,250 crore rupees, and now aims to achieve another growth rate of 30–35% in FY27.

In addition to the automotive sector, Rosemerta has launched a platform for the digitalization of public services. Initially, this platform covers services such as renewal of registration certificates and driver's licenses. Before launching this week, the platform underwent pilot testing with the Federation of Automobile Dealers Association (FADA) in several districts, and more services are expected to be added based on user feedback.
