Waaree Energies has secured an additional 212 MW solar module supply contract from an international customer that owns and manages utility-scale renewable power projects. As per the latest regulatory filing on Friday, July 17, this latest order is incremental to an existing 350 MW contract from the same customer, taking the total order capacity to 562 MW. The order is scheduled to be executed during FY2026-27 and represents a one-time order from an international entity that is not related to the promoter group and does not fall under related-party transactions. This contract adds to the significant 236.22 MW utility-scale solar module supply contract secured by Waaree Solar Americas on June 30, 2026, for a major solar project in Flemingsburg, Kentucky. The company clarified that neither its promoters nor members of the promoter group have any interest in the award of the contract.
Waaree Energies delivered exceptional financial results for Q4 FY26, with consolidated net profit surging 71.4% year-on-year to ₹1,061.10 crore compared with ₹618.91 crore in the same quarter last year. Revenue from operations demonstrated robust growth, surging 111.8% YoY to ₹8,480.25 crore for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The Mumbai-based renewable energy company, which offers innovative solar solutions including panel manufacturing, EPC services, project development, and rooftop systems, continues to strengthen its market position through strategic order wins and operational excellence.
UBS has downgraded Waaree Energies Ltd. from 'Buy' to 'Neutral' and slashed its price target by 30% to ₹3,100 from ₹4,400 earlier. According to Business Standard, the revised target still suggests a potential upside of 7% from the stock's closing price on Monday, July 12. The brokerage reduced its valuation multiple to 21x 12-month forward price-to-earnings (P/E) from 28x, citing a higher discount to industry peers and expectations of lower margins. As per Business Standard, the downgrade stems from growing near- and medium-term challenges in the solar industry, with the sector entering a consolidation phase. UBS noted that its revised target price reflects a more balanced risk-reward profile amid persistent challenges facing India's solar manufacturing sector, though it highlighted its preference for peer Premier Energies, citing stronger execution track record and judicious expansion plans.
