Engineers India reported a stellar Q3 FY26 with revenue of ₹1,194 crore (+59% YoY) and PAT of ₹302 crore (+243% YoY), driven by strong execution and a one-time reversal of ₹213 crore in provisions. EBITDA margin expanded to 28% (vs 11% in Q2), partly due to the reversal. Order book reached a record ₹15,670 crore (67% consultancy), with YTD order inflow of ₹7,700 crore. Management guided for FY26 revenue exceeding ₹4,000 crore and expects to sustain similar order inflow levels. Key risks include volatility in turnkey margins (guided 6-7%) and dependency on client investment decisions for pipeline conversion.
