Atlanta Electricals reported a robust Q3 FY26, with revenue growing 80% year-on-year to INR 472 crores and EBITDA increasing 120% year-on-year to INR 91 crores. The EBITDA margin expanded by 350 basis points to 19.4%, driven by higher volumes and a favorable product mix. This performance reflects the translation of significant investments over the past 18 months, which saw manufacturing capacity expand four-fold from 16,000 MVA to 63,000 MVA. The newly operational Vadod facility contributed approximately one-third of the quarterly revenue.
The company achieved an all-time high order book of INR 2,451 crores as of December 31, 2025, providing strong execution visibility for the next 1.5 years. Order intake for Q3 FY26 was INR 796 crores, including significant wins such as INR 298 crores from GETCO for high-capacity transformers, INR 134 crores from Adani Green Energy for inverter duty transformers, and INR 184 crores for EHV orders from BNC Power Projects. The company also secured its first significant export order of INR 20 crores, marking a milestone in its export journey.
Atlanta Electricals is strategically positioned in the higher voltage segments (400 kV and 765 kV class transformers), which are characterized by high entry barriers and better margin profiles. Management confirmed that the expanded EBITDA margins are sustainable, primarily due to a price pass-through mechanism for large transformers and firm pricing for smaller units, mitigating the impact of commodity price fluctuations. The company noted that margins generally improve with higher kV class products.
The Indian transformer industry is at an inflection point, driven by India's energy transition and infrastructure modernization. Key tailwinds include INR 9.6 trillion in planned transmission capex through 2032 and a shift towards higher voltage requirements due to renewable capacity scaling. New demand segments like data centers, green hydrogen, EV charging, and battery storage systems are also emerging, creating incremental demand for power transformers beyond the current transmission build-up cycle.
The Vadod facility, which commenced production in July 2025, contributed meaningfully to Q3 revenues with a capacity utilization of approximately 30%. The company expects to complete the Power Grid assessment for its Vadod facility (Unit 4) in January 2026 and will subsequently initiate dialogue for re-approval of the Atlanta Trafo facility. Three new NABL-accredited testing laboratories were added, bringing the total to seven, enhancing in-house high-voltage testing capabilities crucial for large utility tenders.
Finance costs for Q3 FY26 increased to INR 20 crores, primarily due to interest on term loans taken for the Vadod facility and BTW acquisition. As of December 31, 2025, long-term debt stood at INR 65.57 crores, mainly for the BTW acquisition, with an additional INR 120 crores in working capital short-term loans. Management stated that the Vadod term loan has been fully repaid, and part of the acquisition loan has also been repaid. They project to repay the remaining INR 65.57 crores long-term debt within the current fiscal year, expecting finance costs to decrease in Q4.
The increase in employee costs was attributed to new hirings for Unit 4 (Vadod) and Unit 5 (Ankhi) across Q1, Q2, and Q3, as well as increment cycles and arrears paid to existing team members. The company also disclosed plans for backward integration capex, currently in the planning stage, with an intent to start by Q1 of the next fiscal year. This capex is expected to enhance manufacturing capabilities and potentially improve cost efficiencies.
