CG Power delivered a strong Q3 FY26 with consolidated revenue of ₹3,175 crore, up 26% YoY, driven by robust power systems growth of 44% and a record order backlog of ₹15,753 crore (+62% YoY). The power systems segment saw margin expansion of 378 bps to 21.4%, while industrial margins contracted due to commodity cost headwinds. A landmark ₹900 crore power transformer export order for a US data center underscores growing export momentum. Management remains bullish on domestic power demand through 2029, with capacity expansion ahead of schedule. Risks include potential Chinese competition in transformers and margin pressure in industrial segments from commodity inflation.
