What could go right

  • India manufacturing/infrastructure capex ('Make in India')
  • Industrial automation adoption

What could go wrong

  • Capex-cycle dependence on industrial investment
  • Competition from Siemens and Schneider

Moat: narrow (brand, scale, process know-how). Parent ABB's global engineering and brand give it a leading position in India's industrial automation/electrification market.

Named competitors: Siemens India (SIEMENS.NS), CG Power & Industrial (CGPOWER.NS), Schneider Electric Infrastructure (SCHNEIDER.NS), Honeywell Automation India (HONAUT.NS), Larsen & Toubro (LT.NS). The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes Ningbo Deye Technology (605117.SS), Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL.NS), Hengtong Optic-Electric (600487.SS), Zangge Mining (000408.SZ), TBEA (600089.SS), EVE Energy (300014.SZ).
Is ABB India expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 85.7× against a peer median of 18.1×, most expensive of 21 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 47% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +18%, so the hurdle is +29 pp: the price needs faster growth than the company has been delivering — of companies that just grew 25–50% a year, 93.8% slowed down over the next four years.
How has ABB India stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -5.8% against -26.0% for the median peer; over one year +28.3%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
