Raw material cost inflation (helium, polymers, preform)
Analysts raised concerns about rising helium and polymer costs (20% of COGS) and preform prices; management said long-term contracts and pass-through clauses mitigate risk but margins could compress if spot prices spike.
EPC segment losses and working capital drag
EPC business has been loss-making due to warranty costs on an army contract; management expects profitability only after AMC signing (likely Q2 FY27). Unbilled revenue of ~₹600 Cr also poses working capital risk.
Execution risk on large order book and capacity expansion
The massive order book (₹21,200 Cr) and planned capacity expansions require flawless execution; any delay in commissioning or supply chain bottlenecks could impact revenue recognition.
