Vikran Engineering Hits Record Revenue, Eyes Further Growth
Vikran Engineering reported its highest-ever annual revenue of ₹1,249 crore for FY26, a significant jump from ₹916 crore in FY25. The company also provided a strong revenue outlook for FY27, guiding for ₹2,200 to ₹2,500 crore.
Reader Takeaway: Record revenue and strong FY27 guidance are positives, but managing working capital remains a key watch point.
What just happened
Vikran Engineering Limited announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended March 31, 2026. The company posted a record revenue of ₹1,249 crore for FY26, up from ₹916 crore in FY25. Profit After Tax (PAT) for FY26 stood at ₹92 crore, an increase from ₹78 crore in the prior year. For Q4 FY26, revenue was ₹647 crore and PAT was ₹56 crore.
The company also highlighted strategic moves, including the acquisition of NOPL Solar Private Limited and its entry into the data center EPC segment. Its current order book stands at ₹5,700 crore.
Why this matters
The record revenue demonstrates the company's execution capabilities, especially in power transmission and solar EPC. The strong FY27 guidance indicates robust future growth prospects. The diversification into solar and data centers reduces reliance on traditional segments and aims for long-term, stable cash flows.
The backstory
FY26 revenue growth was fueled by strong execution in power transmission and distribution projects and a growing contribution from solar EPC. The company has been strategically focusing on expanding its solar EPC business and is now venturing into the data center EPC sector.
What changes now
With the acquisition of NOPL Solar, Vikran Engineering aims to leverage its 969 MW of PM-KUSUM projects for steady cash flows. The entry into data centers targets an initial order book of ₹100 crore. The company is also reducing its dependence on government-led water projects.
Risks to watch
EBITDA margins have moderated to around 14% due to delayed receivables from the Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM). While management aims to maintain margins between 14-15%, historical ranges were higher at 15-20%. Operating cash flow remains negative due to working capital investments, and there is a ₹20 crore provision for delayed government receivables. Investors need to monitor the working capital cycle and the recovery of these receivables.
Peer comparison
While specific peer revenue figures for FY26 are not immediately available, Vikran Engineering's growth in the power T&D and solar EPC segments places it alongside other infrastructure and engineering companies focused on energy transition and government infrastructure projects.
