Fundraise plans

Yes
  • The company plans to fund its capex primarily through internal accruals and debt; no immediate equity fundraising is planned.
  • Management stated that the engineering business has strong earnings growth and sufficient cash flow to fund organic growth without needing capital from the parent company.
  • Parent company has liquidity as a safety net but will not increase stake or inject capital unless there is an inorganic opportunity (e.g., large acquisitions).
  • Capex of around INR 200 crores per year is expected, funded through a mix of internal accruals and debt.
  • No plans to raise equity currently; growth and capex are planned to be self-funded or supplemented by debt as needed.

Order book

Yes
  • Current aerospace order book is approximately INR 2,350 crores over 5 years, translating to around INR 460 crores per year.
  • The order book is dynamic, increasing monthly or quarterly as new products get added; orders correspond to products already made, not upcoming ones.
  • Growth is planned at about 25% year-on-year, accommodated by existing capacity till the new greenfield plant in Andhra Pradesh is operational (end of FY27 calendar year).
  • The company has capacity to sustain 25% growth in the current facility before Andhra plant contribution starts.
  • Continuous addition of around 200-250 new components yearly helps grow the order book further.
  • The order pipeline is diversified across 25+ customers and multiple OEMs, reducing customer concentration risk.
  • Pending validations and complexities cause timelines between RFQ and firm order to range from immediate self-approvals up to 12+ months for complex parts.

  • Over 5 years, the company anticipates spending around INR 1,000 crores across its businesses.
  • Capex funding will come from internal accruals and debt; no immediate need to raise capital from the parent company for organic growth.
  • The new greenfield facility in Andhra Pradesh is expected to begin commercial production in late 2027 (second half of FY28), with significant emphasis on it as a “clean slate” for strategic growth.
  • Continuous modular growth model leads to ongoing machine orders aligned with product ramp-up plans, with several machines on order for delivery in the next 3-6 months.
  • Strategic discussions are ongoing to make the Andhra plant a one-stop shop and move up the value chain in aerospace parts and assemblies.
