BEL reported a strong Q3 FY26 with 9M revenue of INR 17,302 crore (+19% YoY) and PAT of INR 3,845 crore (+21% YoY). EBITDA margin expanded to 30% (up 200bps YoY), driven by favorable product mix and indigenization benefits. Management maintained full-year guidance of 27% EBITDA margin and INR 27,000 crore order inflow, expressing confidence in exceeding both. Key growth drivers include large programs like QRSAM (expected by Q4), NGC (partial in Q4, balance in H1 FY27), and LCA LRUs. The order book stands at INR 73,450 crore, providing strong visibility. Risks include potential spillover of NGC orders and supply chain constraints for semiconductors, though mitigation plans are in place. Overall, the company is well-positioned for sustained 15%+ revenue growth.
BEL ने चालू वित्त वर्ष की तीसरी तिमाही में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। अब तक 9 महीने में कुल कमाई 17,302 करोड़ रुपये रही, जो पिछले साल से 19% ज्यादा है। मुनाफा 3,845 करोड़ रुपये रहा, जो 21% बढ़ा है। कंपनी की कमाई पर खर्च घटाने की क्षमता (EBITDA मार्जिन) 30% हो गई है, जो पिछले साल से 2% ज्यादा है। इसका कारण अच्छा उत्पाद मिश्रण और देश में ही चीजें बनाने से फायदा है। कंपनी को उम्मीद है कि पूरे साल यह मार्जिन 27% रहेगा और 27,000 करोड़ रुपये के नए ऑर्डर मिलेंगे। बड़े प्रोजेक्ट जैसे QRSAM और NGC से ग्रोथ मिलेगी। अभी कंपनी के पास 73,450 करोड़ रुपये के ऑर्डर हैं, जो आने वाले समय में कमाई की मजबूत संभावना देते हैं। हालांकि, कुछ ऑर्डर में देरी और चिप की कमी का जोखिम है, लेकिन इसके लिए योजना बनाई गई है। कुल मिलाकर, कंपनी 15% से ज्यादा की सालाना कमाई बढ़ोतरी के लिए तैयार है।
