Propelled by both the vertical of RAC and Non-RAC Components division with strong growth of 104% and 68% respectively, and resultant blended growth of 95%. Additionally, during the quarter we onboarded one new customer for the tower AC and successfully converted a customer from gas charging to ODM solutions.
The Electronics division, reported a robust growth of 98% against previous year. We are pleased to inform of the Ground-Breaking ceremony of a new manufacturing plant for Ascent at Hosur, Tamil Nadu. Additionally, inked a JV agreement with Korea Circuit, the JV will foray us into advanced manufacturing of HDI, Flex, and Semiconductor Substrates PCBs.
The Railway Sub-systems & Mobility division saw a 6% year-over-year decline in Q2FY25 revenues during the quarter, due to slow lifting of material by Indian Railways as production is more focused towards Non-AC coaches. This shift of focus is momentary and no order cancellation done by Indian Railways. Backed by the strong order book and products expansion, we remain optimistic for the robust potential of the division in the long-term horizon.
Overall, with the key strategic initiatives of Ascents new plant expansion and JV with Korea Circuit we are well poised to attain new scale for the company.
