Company insights, generated from the most recent coverage.
Net profit has been stuck in a ₹600-800 Cr band for five years even as revenue grew from ₹1,324 Cr (FY22) to ₹1,915 Cr (FY25) — growth is going into capacity, not into earnings.
Expansion from 1 unit to 7 units since 2017 inflated capital employed faster than profit, which is why ROCE sits at 17.2% and ROE at 12.5% despite the best margins in Indian shipbuilding.
High-margin aircraft carrier work winding down is the direct cause of the FY25 margin slide to 17.16% net margin from 20.45% in FY24; shipbuilding at 10-12% now dominates the mix.
