What the record says.
Abha Power and Steel reported FY26 full-year revenue of ₹62.22 crore and EBITDA of ₹5.35 crore (8.6% margin), with H2 revenue declining ~20% YoY to ₹27.65 crore due to a 20% price correction in the railway insert segment (60-70% of the impact) and raw material cost inflation. PAT for H2 was ₹0.42 crore (1.55% margin). Management attributed the weakness to cyclical railway contract renewals and expects a turnaround in H1 FY27 as sleeper plants resume production. Key positives include the commissioning of a new automated molding line (35x capacity increase to 35,000 kg/hr), NABL accreditation, entry into defense with prototype orders, and long-term railway component orders. Order book stands at ~₹21.6 crore. Risks: continued pricing pressure in inserts, customer concentration (~70% railway exposure), and elevated trade payables (3x YoY) indicating liquidity strain.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- All new equipment including automated molding line and heat treatment furnaces to be fully commissioned by August 31, 2026.
- Management aims to achieve sustainable EBITDA margins in the 15-20% range in the current financial year.
- Revenue growth expected to be higher double-digit in FY27, driven by capacity expansion and new orders.
- Two newly developed railway coach components are expected to contribute 10-12% of revenue in FY27.
Risks flagged
- Insert prices are cyclical with railway contract renewals; further downside cannot be ruled out despite management's view that prices have bottomed.
- 70-80% of revenue is railway-dependent (direct + OEM), exposing the company to sector-specific downturns.
- Trade payables jumped nearly 3x YoY, indicating potential vendor payment stretching and cash flow pressure.
- Defense prototype orders require field trials of 4-6 months; meaningful revenue contribution unlikely before FY28.
Key quotes
- We have already installed and started our electric arc furnace and one heat treatment furnace. So these two parts are already operational fully operational.
- The worst part is already behind us and now all the sleeper plants are almost up and running or maybe they will come into production in this month or the next month.
- We have formally entered the defense sectors... this order has come directly from the defense PSU to us and this has enabled us to cross a high barrier space.
