Guidance record · Q4 FY26
what the last two calls moved 10 tracked 2 delivered 2 missed 6 open- Water Technologies Revenue Growth delivered said Q2 FY26 Promised: we would probably grow at a rate of 10 to 15% year on year. Q4 FY26: Water Technologies revenue for FY26 was ~Rs. 283.75 Cr (87% of Rs. 326.15 Cr). Assuming an FY25 base of ~Rs. 246.5 Cr (85% of Rs. 290 Cr), the YoY growth is ~15.1%, meeting the 10-15% target.
- Water Technologies Order Book Invoicing went quiet said Q2 FY26 Promised: almost 40% of that total will be order book would be invoiced this year... expect to book from this new order book that most Rs. 40 to 45 CR. Q4 FY26: Management did not provide an update on the invoicing from the Rs. 100+ Cr order book mentioned in Q2. The target of invoicing Rs. 40-45 Cr in FY26 was not addressed as the fiscal year concluded.
- Consolidated Revenue Target diluted said Q2 FY26 Promised: Internally, we're looking at about four years odd to hit 1000 crore milestone Q4 FY26: Management softened the language around the Rs. 1000 Cr target, calling it 'an aspiratory number' and stating 'It's not something that we are saying we will get to.' This is a dilution from the original commitment. FY26 revenue was Rs. 326.15 Cr.
All 10 tracked — every revision, and every one management stopped mentioning.
