In Q1FY26, the company’s revenue jumped 30 percent year-on-year to Rs 1,310 crore from Rs 1,010 crore in the same quarter last year. Net profit also rose 38 percent year-on-year to Rs 120 crore.

During its March quarter earnings call, the management said the company’s order book stood at Rs 22,680 crore and projected that peak execution is likely to be achieved by the end of the current financial year.
