Copper prices surged ~40% and aluminum ~50% since October 2025 due to geopolitical tensions in West Asia, combined with rupee depreciation to ~₹96/USD. These headwinds could push FY27 margins below the 8% floor of guidance if sustained, impacting profitability despite strong order book.
With ALMM2 becoming mandatory from June 2026, 90–95% of projects post-October 31, 2025 require DCR cells. Management acknowledged a potential 6–12 month cell shortage in the domestic market, which could force developers to either reduce margins or delay projects. Solarworld's own cell line won't be ready until June 2027.
In Q1 FY26, management guided for ₹1,500 crore revenue with 11% PAT margin for FY26. Actual FY26 results showed ₹1,416 crore revenue (94% of guidance) and 8.5% PAT margin (77% of margin guidance), raising questions about management's forecasting reliability and execution against commitments.
Management acknowledged that PPA signing delays are occurring after developers become L1 bidders, partly due to DISCOM reluctance and transmission connectivity constraints. This could delay revenue recognition from the ₹2,800 crore order book and extend execution timelines beyond the stated 14 months for solar EPC.
