Investor Presentation for the Quarter and half year ended on September 30, 2025.
Chairman’s Update
“As you are aware the Company is making rapid progress in its defence foray with the establishment of a fully automated, state-of-the-art shell body manufacturing plant. The quarter under review was relatively muted, with temporary pressure on profitability impacted by higher depreciation and finance costs related to our solar and defence assets, as well as the 50% duty imposed in the U.S., our key export market.
While revenues rose on account of higher tariffs, margins were lower due to elevated costs . Cost escalated due to higher depreciation and finance costs associated with solar asset and defence setup. These costs are strategic in nature, reflecting our commitment to clean and sustainable energy and long term growth. With the full utilization of the solar plant and the commencement of commercial operations at the defence unit, expected by Q4 FY26, the Company anticipates a marked improvement in margins and overall profitability.
In addition, recent changes in government policy have affected our ability to fully utilize solar generation capacity. However, this is a transient phase. With the upcoming commencement of commercial production at our defence manufacturing units, solar power consumption is expected to reach full utilisation, leading to significant savings in energy costs and enhanced operational efficiency.
Employee costs also witnessed an uptick during the quarter, largely due to strategic hiring for our upcoming defence facility. These additions to our workforce reflect investments in the future, bringing in specialized talent and technical expertise essential to the next phase of our growth.
I am pleased to report that the defence manufacturing facility remains firmly on track. Civil works are nearing completion, and machinery deliveries are scheduled for January. We expect commercial production to commence in the Q1FY27, with operations scaling to 100% capacity utilization by H2FY27.
We are witnessing robust interest and strong inbound inquiries from potential customers across the defence ecosystem. To capitalize on this momentum, we are planning an expansion of the defence facility in FY27, which will position the company to cater to growing demand both domestically and internationally.
The company’s strategic pivot towards the defence manufacturing segment marks a transformational shift in our business model. This transition will begin to reflect in meaningful topline growth and improved profitability from the second quarter of FY27 onwards.”
Q2FY26 Update
• Total Income increased by 23.7% from ₹ 329 mn to ₹ 407 mn
QoQ, largely driven by higher US tariffs.
• EBITDA decreased by 0.2% from ₹ 43.0 mn to ₹42.9mn QoQ
• PAT decreased by 5.0% from ₹ 14.1 mn to ₹ 13.4 mn QoQ
• Profitability for the quarter was impacted by rise in employee
expenses, higher depreciation & interest charge on account of the
new defence unit and the solar plant. While the additional costs
are provided for in the P&L, the commensurate revenues will start
from the Q1FY27 and will also lead to full utilization of the solar
plant leading to substantial saving in energy costs.
