    “I think we said that typically, in EPC business is loaded mostly in H2. Our equipment pivot that we did, that will start showing results in quarter 2 end and predominantly H2. So we remain confident that this strategy will work. It has started showing its results. But predominantly on the numbers, it would be seen better in Q3 for sure.”

    Analyst challenged the ambitious full-year guidance given a flat Q1, prompting management to explain the H2-heavy nature of the business and the expected impact of the strategic pivot.

The demerger of the power evacuation infrastructure business from INOX Green to IRSL was completed on August 1, 2026, positioning INOX Green as an asset-light O&M player and IRSL for an independent listing post-regulatory approvals, expected in 2-3 months.

    04

    Wind World India Acquisition and O&M Portfolio Growth

    Inox Green has received NCLT Ahmedabad's approval for the acquisition of Wind World India Limited, with formalities anticipated to conclude in Q2 FY27. This acquisition will add approximately 4.5 gigawatts to Inox Green's O&M portfolio, which generated INR580 crores in revenue in FY26 with 5% annual price escalations. As of June 2026, Inox Green's total O&M portfolio stands at 13.3 gigawatts, including 10.5 gigawatts of wind operating assets and 6.5 gigawatts from recent acquisitions, reinforcing its position as a leading renewable O&M provider.

    05

    Guidance Reiteration and H2-Heavy Business Outlook

    Management reiterated its full-year guidance for Inox Wind, targeting 75% revenue growth over the previous year and a consolidated EBITDA margin of 20-22%. For Inox Green's O&M business, a 50% EBITDA margin is maintained, with an annualized EBITDA of INR600 crores expected from Q3/Q4 onwards post-acquisition consolidation. The business is characterized as H2-heavy, with 70-75% of the business typically captured in the second half of the fiscal year, and significant improvements in financials are anticipated from Q2 end or Q3 onwards due to the strategic pivot.

    06

    ALMM Preparedness and Component Indigenization

    Inox Wind is well-prepared for the ALMM (Approved List of Models and Manufacturers) rule, with 80-90% of its wind turbine components already indigenized. The company aims to achieve nearly 100% indigenization for both its 3X and 4X models by the end of the calendar year. Management believes this proactive approach provides a strategic advantage and expects to benefit from this indigenization for at least the next three years, enhancing self-reliance and reducing reliance on imports.
