PERFORMANCE REVIEW & STATE OF THE COMPANY AFFAIRS:

Operations :

During the year under review, the Company achieved its highest-ever sales and service revenue of 1,934.23 crores, marking a significant increase from 1,616.22 crores in the previous year. This growth was also reflected in sales volume, which rose to 15,460 MVA from 13,070 MVA in the previous year.

The Companys profitability remained robust, with Profit Before Tax (PBT) increasing to 436.30 crores, compared to 397.88 crores in the previous year. Profit After Tax (PAT) also improved, reaching 325.41 crores, up from 307.36 crores in the previous year.

This strong operational and financial performance underscores the Companys continued focus on efficient execution, market responsiveness, and value creation for stakeholders.

Operating and Financial Performance Overview:

The Companys operating performance for the year under review was aligned with its strategic business plan to enhance revenue and volume. During the year, the Company achieved exceptional results, recording its highest-ever sales revenue and profitability in its vibrant history. Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment characterized by volatile raw material prices, the Company reported record-breaking revenue, EBITDA, and PAT, with capacity utilization exceeding 100%.

Reflecting the Companys outstanding performance, the Board of Directors has proposed a dividend of 1000%, i.e., 100 per equity share on a face value of 10—also the highest in the Companys history. This translates to a total payout of 101.17 crores, representing a 43% payout of after-tax profit (adjusted for CAPEX and marked-to-market gains, which are book entries).

Sector Outlook and Business Environment:

Looking ahead, the outlook for the Indian power sector remains promising and transformative. A continued shift towards renewable energy, accompanied by a focus on capacity expansion, is expected. The sector is poised for sustainable growth and is set to be a key enabler of the nations future development.

Market momentum remains strong, with a robust enquiry pipeline. The Company does not currently foresee any slowdown in CAPEX spending across its addressable market segments, which will support full utilization of production capacity. However, the anticipated new capacity additions in the transformer industry may affect price realization, leading to margin normalization over time.

Strategic Focus and Capacity Planning:

For FY 2025-26, the Company is targeting full capacity utilization. Consistent with its strategic approach, the Company remains selective in order acquisition. In the current environment of supply chain constraints, it has adopted a policy of not accepting orders with delivery schedules beyond nine months, in order to mitigate the risk of margin erosion.

As of today, the Company holds a healthy order book of 1129 crores (equivalent to 9856 MVA). Sufficient market demand exists to support full capacity utilization in FY 2025-26. The Company will continue to pursue only profitable growth opportunities, with a strong emphasis on maintaining a healthy balance sheet.

For detailed analysis of the performance, please refer to the Management Discussion and Analysis section of the Annual Report given in Annexure-IV.

All the formalities related to acquisition of land got completed during the financial year 2024-25 and factory building construction has started for new power transformers factory at Jarod, Vadodara.
