Brokerage firm Kotak Institutional Equities expects the core EPC business to report 8% year-on-year growth, factoring in disruptions to overseas execution due to the Middle East war and a limited recovery in domestic water projects. Most execution sites in the Middle East are progressing well so far, supported by existing inventory levels. The brokerage expects order inflows to reach around ₹1.3 trillion, equivalent to 1.3 times the order inflows announced so far and 2.5 times core revenues. It has assumed no profit contribution from Nabha Power following its recent divestment.
The brokerage expects EBITDA margin in the core engineering and construction (E&C) business to decline to 7% from 7.3% a year ago, owing to slower execution, modest inflation in raw material prices and temporarily higher logistics costs, which could reverse in subsequent quarters. However, savings in interest costs following the Nabha Power divestment are expected to support profit after tax (PAT) growth from the current quarter.
