Management Commentary

Sohan Lal Agarwal, Managing Director of Websol Energy, said:

“In Q1 FY26, we progressed in line with our strategic roadmap, supported by strong demand for high-efficiency solar products. We achieved revenue of Rs 2.19 billion with an EBITDA margin of 47.3 per cent and a PAT margin of 30.4 per cent.

During the quarter, we launched solar kits for the domestic market and are in advanced stages of finalising agreements with national and regional players. These contracts, aligned with initiatives such as the PM-KUSUM Solar Pumps Project and the Domestic Content Requirement framework, will further strengthen our contribution to India’s renewable energy goals.”

He added that with India targeting 280 GW of installed solar capacity by 2030, demand for advanced solar technologies remains strong. Websol’s expansion plan, once implemented, will strengthen its integrated manufacturing base, improve economies of scale, and enable the company to address both domestic and emerging export opportunities.
