margin

Future growth expectations in earnings/operating earnings/profits/EPS?

- The company expects EBITDA margins in the range of 30% to 33% going forward, assuming no unforeseen circumstances (Page 8). - The ongoing expansion of 600 tons per day capacity (two furnaces of 300 tons each) is expected to increase production capacity by 60%, likely leading to operating leverage and improved margins (Pages 6, 13). - New installations with upgraded technology are expected to yield better operating efficiencies and margins (Page 13). - Rooftop solar business is a new venture expected to generate revenues of around INR75 crores in the first year, with initially lower margins (~<10%) but scalable to meaningful EBITDA as volumes increase (Pages 12-13). - Overall, expectations are for incremental profit growth from capacity expansion and operational efficiencies, though rooftop solar margins will be lower initially. - No near-term capital raising is planned, but an enabling resolution for up to INR750 crores is in place for future funding needs (Page 11). - Operating leverage from the expansion and cost efficiencies should support future profit and EPS growth.

orderbook

Current/ Expected Orderbook/ Pending Orders?

- The company has contracts for both medium-term and short-term orders, broadly securing quantities. - Prices remain a challenge due to fluctuating market prices for gas. - Despite duty imposition, imports continue as domestic production meets only about 30% of solar glass demand; thus, a significant portion of demand is fulfilled by imports. - Sales volumes remain strong with increasing production efficiency. - Inventory levels were notably low at the end of March 2026 due to high demand, indicating strong order fulfillment. - The company is managing supply well without disruptions so far. - Pricing is aligned with landed costs of imported Chinese glass, maintaining competitiveness. - Capacity expansion with two new furnaces (300 tons each) is expected, which will increase production and order fulfillment capabilities.
