FY26 EBITDA: ₹386 crore
Reader Takeaway: Record revenue and debt repayment are positives; monitor project execution and macro factors.
What Just Happened
Powerica Ltd has announced its financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 (FY26), reporting a historic revenue of ₹3,012 crore. This marks the first time the company has crossed the ₹3,000 crore revenue threshold. The company also reported an EBITDA of ₹386 crore and a Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹277 crore for FY26. A significant development in the first quarter of FY27 (Q1 FY27) was the repayment of ₹525 crore of debt.
Why This Matters
Achieving the ₹3,000 crore revenue milestone is a significant operational achievement for Powerica. The substantial debt repayment in Q1 FY27 is expected to reduce finance costs and improve profitability going forward. The company's focus on high-demand sectors like data centers and its growth in the wind power segment signal positive future prospects.
The Backstory
Powerica's revenue grew by 13.5% year-on-year in FY26. The company has been strengthening its balance sheet, particularly after its Initial Public Offering (IPO). As of May 26, 2026, Powerica held approximately ₹450 crore in cash and investments.
What Changes Now
The substantial debt reduction is expected to positively impact the company's finance costs. Management is targeting double-digit growth in FY27, projecting 11-12% organic growth in the generator set business. The company aims to continue its strategic focus on data centers and renewable energy expansion.
Risks to Watch
Two key watch points have been identified: project execution risks related to land acquisition and Right-of-Way (ROW) for wind projects, which could affect commissioning timelines. Additionally, macro headwinds such as geopolitical tensions and supply chain pressures might impact near-term demand and volumes.
Segment Performance
The generator set (DG) business remains the primary revenue driver, contributing 83% of the total revenue. High horsepower DG sets constitute over 50% of this business's value, with strong demand noted from data centers and the manufacturing sector. The wind power segment generated ₹512 crore in revenue in FY26, showing a 28.6% year-on-year growth and a healthy EBITDA margin of 31.3%. The associate company, Platino, which focuses on retrofit emission control devices, reported ₹22 crore in sales and ₹5.8 crore in Profit Before Tax (PBT) for Q4 FY26.
