He added that construction is underway for a 4.5 GW solar cell plant and an 18,000 MTPA aluminium frame facility, targeted for commercialisation by H2 FY27, marking a major step towards deeper vertical integration and strengthening India’s domestic solar manufacturing ecosystem.

Managing Director Vikas Jain highlighted the benefits of scale, noting that EBITDA increased to Rs 1.13 billion and PAT rose to Rs 800 million. He said the INA 3 facility—among India’s most advanced N-type TOPCon module plants—has commenced production on two lines totalling 3 GW, with a further 1.5 GW line expected to start by Q3 FY26. The company anticipates sustained demand across all segments and remains confident of long-term value creation for shareholders.
