Despite lower top line the standalone EBITDA margin improved to 13.54 per cent from 10.56 per cent, reflecting management focus on efficiency. The board noted that tighter project execution and cost control supported margin resilience at the standalone level.
The railway electrification business experienced slower project progress owing to operational constraints and limited availability of sites that require traffic blocks for execution, which affected throughput. The order book at the end of the year stood at Rs 2575.21 mn and management indicated ongoing engagement with railway authorities to secure fresh work and improve execution. The company also reported that its 300 tonne (t) per day rice bran oil extraction plant achieved profitability as capacity utilisation approached half of nameplate, and management expects utilisation and margins to improve further aided by currency movements.
