Risks & concerns — 15 flagged
So, there was a slowdown in the actual conversion of TBCB but on the whole, I think, transmission did see an uptick as well; marginal, I must say, nothing very, very substantial.
— Siemens Limited
Inflation and interest rates, yes, have gone up but we do not see an impact of those in the previous year at least slowing down CapEx activities or indeed even OPEX activity.
— Siemens Limited
It grows every day with use- cases specific to each market vertical that we operate in, demonstrating the benefits and the impact of digitalization solutions that have been arrived at across the world with different products and solutions.
— Siemens Limited
So, customers can really see what have been the best impact of the solutions in use-cases that have been carried out around the world but also in India specific to their respective market segments.
— Siemens Limited
- I think it is fair to say that we delivered another strong performance during, I guess you will also agree, during eventful 12 months of FY22 against thankfully easing impact of global pandemic.
— Siemens Limited
My opinion, globally the macroeconomic environment remains extremely volatile.
— Siemens Limited
However, the macroeconomic environment in India is, yes, to some extent volatile and dependent on further development of ongoing crisis but also shows quite some stable and resilient development and Siemens India navigated through these challenges, actually, very successfully and that development is also reflected in the achievements of our businesses within the respective key verticals.
— Siemens Limited
That's why you also see in line with a decline in our absolute order growth.
— Siemens Limited
Last year we had losses of 134 million whereas this year much higher losses of Rs.1.1 billion which is an impact of 230- basis points on our underlying margin.
— Siemens Limited
So, only a marginal decline of some 60-basis points in Energy.
— Siemens Limited
So, overall, we are currently not seeing any slowdown in CapEx or in OpEx neither from the government sector nor from the private sector right now.
— Siemens Limited
So, where there are large projects, EPC projects, we will be very cautious about and look at the risks and look at the profitability hurdles that we have put in place, but when you are looking at components or products as for example locomotives are concerned, those will meet the margin hurdles that we have.
— Siemens Limited
We have posted a growth of almost 43% in financial year 22, so could you give us a sense on what would have been the impact of pricing within that.
— Siemens Limited
Sunil Mathur – MD & CEO, Siemens Limited: - So, we won't give that price increase because it's very, very difficult.
— Siemens Limited
Daniel Spindler – ED & CFO, Siemens Limited: - You have to consider here purchase price allocation, so there is also some depreciation although for instance technology or customer relations that's why you see some impact of that.

- Thank you, Venkatesh. A very good morning to you all. Hope you're doing well and families are safe and sound. We will carry out this presentation in three parts. I will start with a little bit of an overview about the business in the year gone by, in the last FY 2022. I will then hand over to Daniel to give an overview of the financial status for the previous year and then I will summarize at the end how we see the year 2023 - FY2023 - from an economic environment as also the focus areas of Siemens for the next year ahead. - Let me quickly start then straight away with the highlights of 2022. We did see continued CapEx spend both by public and private sectors. Of course, this was driven primarily by the public spending in CapEx - roads, bridges, airports, ports, railways being some of them but primarily driven by public announcements. Private sectors were driven or CapEx in private sectors were driven primarily by the PLI Scheme to a large extent but also as a throughput from the gov
