    Management Summary

    G R Infraproject reported a robust 15% YoY consolidated revenue growth in Q2 FY26, driven by project execution and new order wins in power transmission and highways. The company demonstrated strong financial discipline by repaying ₹262 crores of debt and significantly improving working capital days. However, standalone EBITDA margins saw a slight dip, and future revenue growth guidance for H2 FY26 was tempered due to ongoing project and bidding delays, particularly for key HAM projects.

    Highlights

    5

    • Consolidated revenue increased by almost 15% year-on-year to ₹1,602 crores in Q2 FY26.

    • Working capital days improved significantly to 98 days at the end of September '25, down from 170 days at the end of fiscal 2025.

    Concerns

    4

    • Standalone EBITDA margin declined to 9.76% in Q2 FY26 from 10.39% in Q2 FY25, primarily due to a one-time claim income recognized in the prior year.

    • Consolidated PAT decreased to ₹189.5 crores in Q2 FY26 from ₹193.5 crores in Q2 FY25.

    • Revenue growth for H2 FY26 is projected at a lower 5-10% due to delays in project appointed dates and bidding.

    • The ₹3,700 crores Agra DBFOT project's appointment date is still awaiting, and two MSRDC projects (Nagpur-Chandrapur Package 1 and Pune-Ring Road Package E6) face potential re-bidding or cancellation due to technical issues.

    Q&A highlights

    6

    “We will grow 5-10% in the revenue in the second half. We have not been able to start any projects since some time, so the growth that was expected due to that has not happened. We have done the expected execution on the projects that have started. But due to the delay in the appointed date from the government side, there is a slight delay.”

    Analyst questioned the feasibility of achieving 10-15% growth given H1 performance, leading management to revise H2 and full-year revenue growth expectations downwards due to project delays.

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    Q2 FY26 Financial Performance Overview

    G R Infraproject reported a consolidated revenue from operations of ₹1,602 crores in Q2 FY26, marking a 14.92% year-on-year increase. Standalone revenue grew by 9.31% to ₹1,234 crores. While standalone PAT saw a healthy rise to ₹131 crores from ₹115 crores, consolidated PAT slightly declined to ₹189.5 crores from ₹193.5 crores. The standalone EBITDA margin was 9.76%, a decrease from 10.39% in the prior year, primarily attributed to a one-time📎 claim income recognized in Q2 FY25.

    02

    Order Book and Inflow Strategy

    The company's order book stood at approximately ₹21,000 crores as of September 30, 2025. New order inflows in Q2 FY26 totaled ₹3,382 crores, including a significant ₹3,136 crores power transmission project and a ₹246 crores highway project. Management targets an annual order inflow of ₹20,000-25,000 crores for FY26, with a focus on highways (₹10,000-11,000 crores) and railway/metro projects (₹2,000-3,000 crores). The pipeline includes ₹4,300 crores in L1 road projects and another ₹4,300 crores in projects awaiting opening, alongside a ₹3,700 crores DBFOT project awaiting its appointed date.

    03

    Diversification into Oil & Gas EPC

    G R Infraproject is actively evaluating opportunities in the EPC business of the oil and gas sector as part of its diversification strategy. The company aims for an annual revenue contribution of ₹1,000-1,500 crores from this segment over the next three years. Initial project margins are expected to be in the 8-10% range, with a target to reach 15% as experience grows. The company is building an internal team to support this new venture, focusing on pipeline, platform, and piling work.

    04

    Capital Structure and Working Capital Management

    The company demonstrated strong capital management by repaying ₹262 crores of debt, leading to a standalone debt-equity ratio of 0.03x and a consolidated ratio of 0.67x. Working capital days improved significantly to 98 days at the end of September '25, down from 170 days at the end of fiscal 2025, primarily due to a decrease in SPV debtors and unbilled revenue. Total promoter equity contribution required for HAM/BOT and power transmission projects is ₹3,205 crores, with ₹500 crores expected in H2 FY26.

    05

    Sector Outlook and Challenges

    Management noted that while the government's guidelines for project awards are robust, bidding has been delayed, impacting revenue growth. Issues such as land acquisition, project quality execution, and restructuring within the NHAI are contributing to these delays. Despite these challenges, the company remains optimistic about opportunities in power transmission, railways (metro), and highways in the coming quarters, expecting a pick-up in bidding activity by Q4 FY26.

    06

    Leadership Transition and Corporate Developments

    Vinod Kumar Agarwal, Chairman and Whole-time Director, has resigned due to health reasons, marking a significant transition for the company he co-founded in 1995. The company acknowledged his pivotal role in its growth and success. G R Infraproject has also moved to its new corporate office named GR1, reflecting its ongoing evolution and growth.
