CG Power Expands Manufacturing Amid Strong Q1 Growth
Consolidated Revenue: ₹3,280.81 crore
Consolidated PAT: ₹308.28 crore
Reader Takeaway: Robust revenue growth and capacity expansion to meet demand; monitor tax litigation progress.
What just happened
CG Power and Industrial Solutions Limited announced its financial results for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026. The company reported a 16% year-on-year increase in consolidated revenue, reaching ₹3,280.81 crore, up from ₹2,878.05 crore in Q1 FY26. Consolidated Profit After Tax (PAT) also saw a healthy rise to ₹308.28 crore from ₹266.87 crore.
In addition to its financial performance, the Board of Directors approved a brownfield expansion project for its Extra High Voltage (EHV) Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) division in Nashik. This project, estimated at ₹35.17 crore, is expected to be completed within 4-6 months and funded through internal accruals and equity.
Why this matters
The financial growth indicates continued demand for CG Power's products. The capacity expansion is a strategic move to address existing bottlenecks, as the company's EHV GIS facility was operating at 91% capacity in FY26. This expansion aims to double capacity, ensuring the company can meet increasing order intake and maintain delivery timelines, which is crucial for investor confidence and future revenue streams.
The backstory
CG Power has been focused on strengthening its manufacturing capabilities and financial health. The company had previously raised ₹3,000 crore via a Qualified Institutions Placement (QIP). As of June 30, 2026, ₹502.65 crore of these funds have been utilized, with the remainder held in liquid assets.
What changes now
The approved expansion project signals a proactive approach to scaling operations. The company intends to double its EHV GIS manufacturing capacity, directly addressing the current throughput constraints. This move is expected to support sustained revenue growth by enabling the company to accept a larger volume of orders.
Risks to watch
CG Power is managing ongoing direct tax litigations. While management expressed confidence in a favorable outcome based on legal opinions, these litigations represent a potential contingent liability that investors should monitor.
