Why the quarter looked the way it did
What drove margins
Memory prices rose another 5% to 10% in Q1 FY27, with management noting that prices have multiplied significantly since October 2025, supporting higher realizations.
Laptop ASP reached INR30,763 (a 12% increase year-on-year and 2.5% sequentially), while desktops and others reached INR19,300-odd (a 10% increase year-on-year).
