Detailed Narrative
FY26 Performance Overview and Growth Drivers
Ganesh Green Bharat Limited delivered a robust financial performance in FY26, with revenue from operations soaring 232% year-on-year to INR 1,067 crores from INR 321 crores in FY25. Profit After Tax (PAT) also saw a significant increase of 149% to INR 75.18 crores, while EBITDA grew 122% to INR 113.58 crores. This growth was attributed to disciplined execution, strong customer relationships, and an expanding order pipeline in the solar and EPC industry, despite global market volatility🌐 and commodity price fluctuations.
Strategic Entry into Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
The company has made a strategic entry into the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) segment, identifying it as a crucial pillar for the renewable energy industry. Ganesh Green secured a significant order from NTPC REL for approximately 1 gigawatt hour capacity, marking an important milestone. The BESS projects are undertaken on an EPC basis, covering end-to-end solutions including procurement and execution, with an expected EBITDA margin of 13-14%.
Order Book and Revenue Visibility
Ganesh Green boasts a strong order book of approximately INR 2,200 crores as of March 31, 2026, providing substantial revenue visibility for the coming period. The company is also actively participating in tenders worth over INR 2,500 crores, including major EPC opportunities. Management expects to secure INR 1,000-1,500 crores from BESS tenders alone, with an overall revenue target of INR 1,500-1,700 crores for FY27.
Margin Dynamics and Raw Material Management
While FY26 margins were impacted by geopolitical factors, foreign exchange volatility, and rising raw material prices (aluminium, copper, silver), the company is focused on improving profitability. This will be achieved by increasing contribution from higher-margin EPC and value-added businesses, strengthening manufacturing capabilities, and strategic procurement. Management targets an EBITDA margin of 12-14% for solar EPC and BESS, and an overall PAT margin of 8-9% for new orders in the coming years, up from 7% in FY26.
Working Capital and Future Capacity Expansion
The company's working capital is intensive due to a 75-day inventory cycle and the need for advances to secure raw materials, 95% of which are imported. Total working capital and other debt for a INR 1,000 crore business stood at INR 32 crores, with term loans at INR 10 crores. Ganesh Green plans to manage working capital through internal accruals and bank support. Looking ahead, the company is planning for cell manufacturing, contingent on securing large orders (above 1 gigawatt), with an estimated capex of up to INR 300 crores for a 1 GW plant.
Future Growth and Strategic Initiatives
Ganesh Green aims for a minimum revenue growth of 70% in FY27, followed by 60-70% annual growth for the next five years. The company is also planning to migrate from the NSE SME platform to the Mainboard in FY27, leveraging its eligibility based on FY26 financials. This move is expected to enhance market presence and investor confidence, supporting the company's long-term vision in the green energy sector.
