Quarter read
What the record says.
HPL Electric delivered a strong FY26 with revenue crossing 1,800 crores and Q4 revenue exceeding 500 crores for the first time. The CNI segment grew 26% to 784 crores, led by wire & cables which surged 50% to 340 crores. Smart metering order book stands at 3,200 crores, providing multi-year visibility. Management guided CNI revenue to cross 1,000 crores in FY27 and expects similar growth momentum. Capex will be limited to maintenance, with debt remaining stable. Key risk: execution delays in smart metering due to state-level disruptions or policy shifts.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management expects CNI segment revenue to exceed 1,000 crores in FY27, driven by continued growth in wire & cables and other products.
- After substantial capex in prior years, FY27 capex will be limited to maintenance, with no major expansion planned.
- Management expects debt to stay at current levels as revenue grows, with no immediate reduction.
Risks flagged
- State-level disruptions (elections, policy changes) could slow meter installations and revenue recognition.
- Analyst raised concern about concentration risk with large AMISPs like Adani; management acknowledged supplying to all major players but did not quantify exposure.
- Rising commodity prices (metals, plastics) have compressed CNI margins; price pass-through is lagged and may not fully offset.
Key quotes
- Revenue crossed 1,800 crores and Q4 revenue crossed 500 crores for the first time.
- HPL electric is now visibly a two engine electrical equipment and solutions company.
- Our order book continues to provide visibility with metering accounting for more than 97% of the order book of over rupees 3,200 crores.
