Management Comments :
Commenting on the results, Shri Prayasvin B. Patel, Chairman & Managing Director of Elecon Engineering Company Ltd. said, 'For Q4FY26, Elecon reported Consolidated Revenue of ? 746 crores, with an EBITDA of ? 158 crores and EBITDA margin at 21.2%, while Profit after Tax (PAT) was ? 108 crores (after excluding Impairment loss of Goodwill ? 102 Crores recognized as an exceptional item below PBT), translating into a PAT margins at 14.5%. Order-in-take for the quarter was ? 657 crores, and open order book as at 31st March 2026 stood at ? 1,292 crores. The strong open order book, combined with a healthy order inflow outlook across markets, provides good visibility for the coming year. Elecon continues to be a market leader in India for both Industrial Gear Solutions and Material Handling Equipment and continues to maintain the growth momentum in the domestic market. Despite near term global challenges, we remain focused on expanding our overseas business across multiple geographies. Our competitive edge is driven by advanced manufacturing capabilities, recently upgraded with state-of-the-art machinery, a comprehensive portfolio of high-quality products, and the ability to deliver custom-engineered solutions with optimized lead times, ensuring consistent and reliable performance for our diverse customer base. During Q4 FY26, our Material Handling Equipment (MHE) division sustained its strong growth trajectory, reporting revenue of ?274 crores, up 36.8% YoY, with an EBIT margin of 22.8%. With our strategic focus on product supply and expansion of aftermarket services, we expect this segment to maintain steady momentum going forward. Revenue in the Gear Division for Q4 FY26 was ?472 crores compared to Rs 597 crores in Q4FY25, with an EBIT margin of 19.3%. This decrease was primarily attributable to delays in order inflows, extended dispatch schedules, and the deferment of deliveries by customers amid ongoing global macroeconomic challenges. We are carrying a healthy open order book for next year which provides confidence in a growth recovery for this division in the coming year. Demand remains healthy across both domestic and overseas markets. In India, sustained investment activity in key sectors such as power, steel, and cement is expected to drive growth. While geopolitical uncertainties persist, we are beginning to see early signs of recovery in our overseas business. Our growth strategy remains focused on forging strategic alliances with global partners, continued investments in R&D and innovation, and scaling our high-growth MHE division. These initiatives position Elecon to outperform industry trends, expand its domestic and global presence, and deliver sustainable, profitable growth over the long term.'
