Company Guidance

Guidance included commissioning the Hyderabad project in a phased manner through FY 2030 and increasing sheet metal capacity to 160,000 metric tons per annum and machining capacity to 1.31 million hours by FY 2031 through INR 450 crore of CapEx, comprising approximately INR 125 crore for land procurement and INR 325 crore for infrastructure, plant, and equipment, with approximately INR 150 crore in FY 2028 and the remaining amounts towards FY 2029, FY 2030 and 2031; the combined INR 740 crore CapEx was expected to include INR 250 crore-INR 260 crore of committed CapEx, with the first year at INR 250 crore-INR 300 crore, thereafter INR 125 crore-INR 150 crore, and more than 90% of the land and building expenditure in 18 months. FY 2027 lamination guidance remained 82,000 tons, 82,000 tons + 1,000 tons for the year, with 17,000 tons of castings, and FY 2028 should see stronger volume growth from quarter two; full-year guidance of INR 370 crore was maintained. At full utilization by FY 2031, revenue potential was approximately INR 3,800 crore, including around INR 850-odd crore from plain vanilla machine components and closer to INR 3,000 crore from lamination on a standalone basis; sustainable blended margin at Q2 raw material price levels was in the vicinity of 17%+ EBITDA, machine components should have an EBITDA margin in excess of 25%, potentially 18% was available, and 17% would be pretty much a very comfortable number to hit with this mix. Fuel and power cost was going to be passed on from January onwards, with those costs coming back by quarter four, while steel price inflation was a quarterly pass-through; data centers were not expected to increase more than probably 9% of overall revenue, exports would remain stable or slightly downward as a percentage of overall sales, and Maharashtra incentive recovery was expected to be roughly INR 35 crore-INR 36 crore per annum currently and about INR 40 crore recovery per year by next year, versus INR 57 crore over seven years or INR 44 crore over nine years.
