Increase in PAT Justification:

IC Electricals Limited witnessed a significant increase in Profit after Tax by 51.11%, reaching Rs. 1,402.45 Lakhs from Rs. 928.26 Lakhs in the previous year. This increase is attributed to the following:

• The improvement in the Companys gross profit margin was primarily driven by the growth in revenue from operations, resulting in enhanced economies of scale. During the year, the electronic division recorded a significant growth of approximately 70% in sales, increasing from Rs. 2,568.00 lakhs in the previous financial year to Rs. 4,371.67 lakhs in FY 2025-26. Being the largest contributor to the Companys gross profit and generating an average gross profit margin of approximately 45%, which is higher than that of the other business divisions, the increased contribution of the electronic division to the overall revenue mix had a favourable impact on the Companys gross profitability.

The order book of the company has registered a sharp growth of almost 54% which has helped the company to increase its turnover in FY 2025.

New Orders Added 10,571.39 21,821.01

1. the increase in the Companys Profit After Tax (PAT) for FY 2025-26 was also supported by improved working capital management. Efficient cash flow planning enabled the Company to make timely and early payments to its suppliers, thereby availing cash discounts from creditors, which contributed positively to the overall profitability during the year.

2. The Companys profitability improved due to the execution of higher-margin contracts. Further, the Electronic Division, which comprises a mix of product supply and services, generates relatively higher margins, and its increased contribution positively impacted the overall profitability of the Company.

Cash flow from Operating Activity

Reasons for negative cash flow from operating activity

The cash flow from operation for the FY 26 (1,146.02) & for the FY25 (827.99) representing an increase of 38.41%.

Reason:

The increase in negative cash flows from operating activities was primarily attributable to a higher level of trade receivables during the year. As a significant portion of the Companys sales is generated in the last quarter of the financial year, outstanding receivables tend to be higher at the balance sheet date, resulting in a temporary increase in working capital requirements and a corresponding impact on operating cash flows.

Other Receivables

The other receivable is 3,390.65 lakhs for the financial year 25-26 and is Rs. 2,359.04 Lakhs for the FY24-25 Reason for increase in other receivables:

(Amount in Lakhs)

Particulars FY 2025-26 FY 2024-25
Current Maturity of Railways (Earnest money deposit) 516.46 848.21
Unbilled Revenue 2,111.36 836.48
FDR with Bank (Held as a Margin Money and as a Collateral Security with Banks) 762.82 674.35

The increase in other receivables was primarily attributable to the growth in unbilled revenue. As a significant portion of the Companys operations relates to contractual projects, particularly in the railway sector, a substantial part of the work executed during the year could not be billed before the financial year-end despite the completion of the relevant contractual milestones. Consequently, such amounts have been recognised as unbilled revenue and are expected to be billed in the subsequent financial year.

Trade Payable

The trade payable is Rs. 3,663.73 Lakhs for the FY25-26 and Rs. 3,409.56 Lakhs for the FY24-25.

Reason for increase in trade payable:

The increase in trade payable has increased due to major purchases happens in the last month of the FY 2025-26. The details of Trade payables are as follows:

(Amount in lakhs)

Particulars FY 2025-26 FY 2024-25
Total outstanding dues from micro enterprises & small enterprises 621.41 1,601.45
Total outstanding dues of creditors other than micro enterprises & small enterprises 3,042.32 1,808.11

The increase in direct expenses during the year was primarily attributable to higher job work costs incurred in the contractual division.

Pat Margin in % 9.86% 7.72%

Increase in PAT Justification:

IC Electricals Limited witnessed a significant increase in Profit after Tax by 49.78%, reaching Rs. 1409.90 Lakhs from Rs. 941.49 Lakhs in the previous year. This increase is attributed to the following:

• The improvement in the Companys gross profit margin was primarily driven by the growth in revenue from operations, resulting in enhanced economies of scale. During the year, the electronic division recorded a significant growth of approximately 70% in sales, increasing from Rs. 2,568.00 lakhs in the previous financial year to Rs. 4,371.67 lakhs in FY 2025-26. Being the largest contributor to the Companys gross profit and generating an average gross profit margin of approximately 45%, which is higher than that of the other business divisions, the increased contribution of the electronic division to the overall revenue mix had a favourable impact on the Companys gross profitability

Due to better working capital management, the company is able to get cash discounts from creditors by paying them early which is the other major reasons for increase in PAT of the company for FY2026.

The improvement in the Companys profitability was primarily driven by the execution of contracts with higher margins compared to those undertaken in previous years. In addition, the Electronic Division, which comprises a combination of product supply and related services, generates relatively higher margins, and its increased contribution to the overall business had a favourable impact on the Companys profitability.

Cash flow from Operating Activity

Reasons for negative cash flow from operating activity

The cash flow from operation for the FY26 (1,109.55) & for the FY25 (965.40) representing an increase of 14.93%.

Reason: The increase in negative cash flows from operating activities during the year was primarily attributable to a higher level of trade receivables. As a significant portion of the Companys sales is generated during the last quarter of the financial year, collections from such sales are typically realised in the subsequent period. Consequently, trade receivables remained elevated at the balance sheet date, leading to a temporary increase in working capital requirements and an adverse impact on operating cash flows.

Other Receivables

The other receivable is 3,668.27 lakhs for the financial year 25-26 and is Rs. 2,636.30 Lakhs for the FY24-25 Reason for increase in other receivables:

The major reason for increase in the Other Receivables is due to increase in unbilled revenue. The company major sales happen in the last quarter of every financial year. The unbilled revenue majorly contributes towards the contracting side of the business. The company in the contractual division has performed the work but not able to bill the same in current Financial Year. The same will get billed in the FY 2025-26.
